Mafia 88: Insane Asylum

As with the rest of the country, hard economic times have hit ACville. High unemployment coupled with reduced spending have even impacted the local crime syndicate. No money among the population means less for them to steal.

In order to fill their pockets, the Mafia hatch a scheme…. Reopen the long-shuttered ACville Insane Asylum, and then collect state-supplied money to run it. The only hitch; the asylum must be filled with patients before the state will supply a dime to run the place.

To fulfill their evil plan, the Mafia sneak into town one night, with a hypodermic needle and psychosis-inducing drugs -- injecting each and every resident of ACville while they sleep……

----------------​

You wake up feeling groggy, with drool running from your mouth and forming a wet spot on the front of your shirt. Looking down you notice that you’re slumped in an old wheel chair.

The room is bright enough,even with the faulty fluorescent light flickering in the corner of the room. Even in your delirium you’re able to notice other people in the room; lots of other people. People, like you, with dazed looks on their faces.

In studying their faces further, you realize that for some reason all of these people seem familiar, but no matter how hard you try, you just can’t place where you know them from. To make matters worse, you’re not even sure who you, yourself, are….

You go to wipe the drool from your face when you notice a folded piece of paper tucked into your hand. You open the paper and read the following:



As you finish reading, you feel a sting in your arm and turn your head quickly to notice a semi-official looking person pushing the plunger on the hypodermic needle stuck into your arm. Your vision blurs, and everything goes black....





In this game, instead of your own screen-name, everyone will post using alternate IDs (or aliases) provided by me. Nobody will know who the other players are.

Roles

1 Player will receive the following PM:
Detective

You are the former town detective. At night you roam the halls and gather information. Each night you will be allowed to investigate one other player, and be told their role.
1 Player will receive the following PM:
Doctor

You are the former town doctor. At night you roam the halls and protect other patients form harm that may await them. Each night you will be allowed to protect one other player from meeting with harm. You may not protect yourself.
2 Players will receive the following PM:
Mason

You are a Mason with player A. You are able to communicate with them through a ventilation shaft in your room. You know them to be innocent, and may communicate with them outside the thread, at any time. If you should die, you may no longer communicate with your partner.
8 Players will receive the following PM:
Townie

You are a townie, with no power, other than your vote. Use it wisely, and you may just get out of this predicament.
1 Player will receive the following PM:
Mafia Snoop

You are a Mafia Snoop planted in the asylum to keep the patients in line. At night you roam the halls and gather information. Each night you will be allowed to investigate one other player, and be told their role. Note that only you have this ability, and if you die, the ability dies with you.

You are a member of the Mafia with player X, player Y, and player Z. You may communicate with them outside the thread, at any time. If you should die, you may no longer communicate with any of them.
1 Player will receive the following PM:
Mafia One-Time Mass Role-Blocker

You are a Mafia one-time mass role-blocker planted in the asylum to keep the patients in line. On one night only, you may adjust the medications of the patients, causing them all to sleep, and not complete any night actions (investigation or protection). This will not affect any night actions taken by you or your partners. Note that only you have this ability, and if you die before using it, the ability dies with you.

You are a member of the Mafia with player W, player Y, and player Z. You may communicate with them outside the thread, at any time. If you should die, you may no longer communicate with any of them.
2 Players will receive the following PM:
Mafia Goon

You are a Mafia Goon planted in the asylum to keep the patients in line. Each night you roam the halls with your partners with the intention of killing one of the patients making any trouble.

You are a member of the Mafia with player W, player X, and player Z. You may communicate with them outside the thread, at any time. If you should die, you may no longer communicate with any of them.

Win Conditions

Town wins when all Mafia is eliminated.

Mafia wins when their number equals that of the town.

Note that due to the difficulties sometimes faced by new players, I will not accept any first-time players for this game. Having to conceal your identity through the use of alias IDs makes it too difficult for a new player to ask questions in the thread AND remain concealed.

Note: Rules aren't complete, but should give a good flavor of the game. I'll have the complete rules up by Tuesday morning.

I'm posting the sign-up earlier than planned, as there seems to be a fair amount of interest, and I want to make sure that folks who are interested in playing get a shot at signing up.

As stated earlier, due to the difficulty often faced by first-timers, I will NOT accept any first-time players for this game. Trying to remain disguised while figuring out the game of Mafia, for the first time, would likely end in an untimely death (UD). If you haven't played Mafia before, but are interested in this game, feel free to read the game thread, and then hop in the next game.

Currently we're at 11 slots filled... I'll take up to 20.

Still planning for a Sunday, 2/27 start date, but would consider a 2/20 start if folks get restless, and moving the date doesn't jam anyone up, in terms of available playing time.
