Mafia XX - Inside The Head 2 [ENDGAME]

[darkclaymore]

Previously on Inside The Head...

Inside DarkClaymore's head, law and balance ruled everything.
That until...




A wild Vamp... Vampire appeared!

In order to defeat the evil Vampire and save the head, a trio was gathered!


The Red Eyed Black Ninja!



Pringles Jr.!

And...!


The One Does Not Simply Derp guy!

United, they set out to defeat the evil Vampire!

But sooner than later, a third party appeared!


The evil Xertopus!

The greatest war in history was about to begin...




WAIT WHAAAAAAAAT!??!!?




Okay, and now seriously...


The balance inside DarkClaymore's head was about to crumble due to the existence of a single Resident - the Water Virus. A negative Resident responsible for DarkClaymore's constant thirst, as well as surrealistic, and unhealthy, water consumption ratio.

United against the troublemaker, the other Residents were ready to battle. But he didn't express fear. His sole reaction was...



In order to avoid needless damage to the brain (or perhaps just for personal fun?) a certain Resident came forth-


Orihara Izaya, DarkClaymore's Favorite Male Anime Character

His solution to the conflict was...


"A game of Mafia"

However... that didn't quite work, and they ended up just fighting each other to death in Digital Devil Clash style...







NOT!

Izaya had a trick up to his sleeve. He convinced another Resident to help him.



Katsura Hinagiku, DarkClaymore's Favorite Female Anime Character

By using her popularity (read as: 'Tsundere Sex Appeal' ), she convinced everybody to participate in the game.

And so the game began.

Mod: Izaya
Co-Mod: Hinagiku

The evil doers fell one after another early in the game!


The Water Virus was reduced into... water!


As the finale drew near, Izaya was ready to announce the Town's win. But then...

*SMACK*


"The heck?"


Eternal Mason, a resident representing DarkClaymore's high odds of drawing the Mason role in Mafia games, switched sides!



As the mod tried to make heads and tails out of the situation-

*stab*

Stabbed from behind. By none other than...


The Co-Mod, now under the Water Virus's control!

Unable to act any further, he promised a single thing before fading:


"Curse you... Ugh... We shall settle the score... one day... mark my words..."



Weakened, yet firmly existing, the fresh new Water Virus left together with his new follower...

Eternal Mason evolved into... Water Virus's Follower! (Such original name...)


After laying low for a while, gathering lost strength, it is time to confront the Water Virus anew. And this time: To completely erase him from existence!

A new episode is upon us...


Join the game as Residents from DarkClaymore's head and decide its fate!

Spoiler:

General
Mafia is a game in which uninformed majority clashes with informed minority. The majority tries to expose the informed minority that blends in. You can get the general idea by reading the Newbie Guide. If this is your first time playing mafia, or first time playing it on a forum, there are other articles you might find helpful:

Roles – Covers the common roles in mafia. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Commonly Used Abbreviations – Covers many abbreviations and terms used in mafia. RECOMMENDED.
Beginner's Guide – Has general tips about how to play as either town or scum.
Logical Fallacies – Logical Fallacy is a mistake in reasoning. There are many examples in this list. RECOMMENDED: WIFOM, Circular Reasoning and Attack the Person.

It’s recommended to use the wiki to your advantage as much as you can. Remember, in Mafia: Information = Power.



Inside The Head series
Inside The Head is a series of Mafia games composed and hosted by DarkClaymore. Oh, hai that's me BTW!

It's called a 'Series' due to:
1) Sharing the same plot. Every single game in the series is an 'Episode'.
2) Sharing similar unique mechanics, which are constantly added with every new episode.


Episodes
Big talk about a 'Series', sir. This is just the second game!

True that. But the fact remains that this episode is the continuation of the previous one, plot-wise.
Reading about previous episodes you didn't take part in, just might help you in getting familiar with the flavor and the mindfucking role setups I make.

Links:
Episode I


Unique Mechanics
The series evolves over time, as experimental mechanics are added in every new instance of the series. Mechanics which were found useful/interesting shall make a comeback in future episodes.

It's for your advantage to get familiar with them

Bar – Scheme in secret along with your drunk friends!
Originally used in Episode I.
Every Day phase, a certain number of players (often 3~4) will be randomly chosen to visit the ‘Bar’ - a GM made QT where they can privately chat. The selected players will be able to talk in the set Bar QT for a whole day (Day + Night). On the next Day phase – a new group will be selected to enter the Bar, with a different QT.

Bless – Scumhunt at Day, Townhunt at Night!
An experimental mechanic of Episode II, AKA This Game.
Just like during Day, players can now also vote during Night.
HOWEVER!
Instead of voting for a “Lynch”, during the Night they’ll be voting for a “Bless”. The ‘Blessed’ player will receive some sort of POWERUP.

"0) There are no rules"

Spoiler:

Phases

1) The game will have a 48 hours Day phase, and a 48 hours Night phase.

2) A DE, Deadline Extension, will be granted once per Day phase if more than 20% of the living players will request it in thread.

3) During the Day, each player can vote for a single player to be Lynched.

4) During the Night, each player can vote for a single player to be Blessed. [Unique Mechanic. See under Information section.]

5) By the end of every phase, the player with the most votes on him – will be lynched/blessed.

6) If, during Day phase, majority, more than 50% of the living players, vote for the same player – the Lynch will be “locked”. Changing your vote will no longer be possible. If, in addition, all actions were submitted – the phase will end with a Quicklynch.

7) If, during Night phase, all players have placed their votes – the Bless will be “locked” and changing your vote will no longer be possible. If, in addition, all actions were submitted – the phase will end with a QuickBless.

8) Voting for “No Lynch” is allowed. “No Bless”, as well as voting yourself for a Bless, is not allowed.

9) Lynch/Bless ties will be handled with the power of random. One player in the tie will be Lynched/Blessed.

10) By the end of every phase, a Final Tally will be posted by me.

11) Keep in mind that due to my own schedule, some changes might occur (Ex: Forced DE). Bear in mind that while I WILL usually be able to notify you of my absence, it just MIGHT not always be the case.



Restrictions

1) Once you submitted an action - it was submitted. You CAN'T change it.

2) Talking with other players outside thread and PMs/QTs set by me – is FORBIDDEN.

3) Claiming and revealing any vital game-related information (Ex: Investigations results) once lynch is locked, AKA "Twilight" - is FORBIDDEN. Treat twilight as a short phase during which everybody is dead.

4) Not posting, AKA ‘Lurking’, is NOT welcomed. If you’re too busy or not gonna take it seriously – don’t bother.

5) Don’t quote or printscreen anything from PMs/QTs. Rephrasing is allowed.

6) If you have a question about your role – PM me privately.

7) Posting while you’re dead, AKA Deadposting, is allowed but greatly discouraged. However, note that revealing any game related info in the thread while dead – is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. A QT will be created for the dead to chat in.

8) Mass Claim. Do it faggots!

9) Read the scenes! You can never know what you'll find there.



Optimization

1) If you have a power role, yet don’t plan to submit an action in a specific phase - DO notify me. This shall prevent pointless waiting.

2) You can submit actions in ‘inappropriate’ phases as well, such as submitting Night actions during the Day. This can be used by busy players who can’t guarantee they’ll be online in the ‘appropriate’ phase. Note that the actions will still be resolved in the next appropriate phase, not in the inappropriate one they were submitted in.

3) You can go as far as submitting 'conditional actions', which will be executed according to the condition you set. Ex: Protect: X IF X wasn't lynched. Otherwise, Protect: Y.

4) The above can be done with votes as well. But be careful about the conditions you set. Conditions such as "Vote whoever X votes" can easily backfire when X decides to vote for you, resulting in you voting yourself!
Sure, you can set a condition. But think it over properly before you state it!

5) Unlike with actions submitted in the appropriate phase, actions submitted in an inappropriate phase can be changed as many times as you wish.

"Existing and Being alive don't mean the same thing. Don't forget that."

0) Orihara Izaya - Mod ??? at endgame!

9) Lopez - Despair Creep (Alien) survived a fatal assault, stole Core's shards and remained in existence!

1. TheForeignGamer

Those images. xD

[Empty Overture]

In. I don't care for you encouraging Mass Claiming, but the rest of the game looks pretty awesome, soooo, might as well. Last game you hosted was fun too, so why not?

1. TFG
2. Empty Overture

[darkclaymore]

I don't care for you encouraging Mass Claiming

It's me objecting the restriction of mass claiming

EDIT: Singups? Interesting.

Oh, I forgot to mention.
In order to be accepted into the game, you must record a video of yourself singing and uploaded it to Youtube

[MizuMikomi]

*Sees mass claiming is encouraged*

....*sigh*


1. TFG
2. Empty Overture
3. MizuMikomi

Just so it's on record before the game starts:
-Regardless of my alignment I refuse to participate in a mass claim, do not take my inevitable refusal to do so as a scum read, nor should you see it as any insight into the nature of my role.

[Empty Overture]

I don't care for you encouraging Mass Claiming

It's me objecting the restriction of mass claiming

Figured as much. Meh, that's cool. Your host, so your rules apply.

Oh, I forgot to mention.

Shit. I better get my camera and/or start up Audacity. LET'S DO THIS.

[darkclaymore]

*Sees mass claiming is encouraged*

....*sigh*

You shouldn't really care, as with a host who turns Survivors into SKs, Masons into Mafia and includes duplicates of the same role - people should be too afraid to mass claim

[ShadowJetX]

The few of claymore's games that I've played have been proven to be wikitty wonky, but they didn't turn into the train wreck mine was and I doubt it'll include something as broken as switching people's alignments and roles, sooooo:
