From the "Mafia Games" thread...

MAFIA #45: Cabin Fever

*For those of you that haven't played...

The players are the townies in the great city of ACville who have been stranded inside the old ACville Motel by a large winter storm. Cabin fever begins to take hold as a resident begins to pick the towns people off, one by one. The innocents begin to turn on one another, in attempt to rid themselves of the murderer...

*Rules are similar to those of previous mafia games with the exception of roles...

Doctor- ability to protect one player each night


Detective- able to investigate one person each night

Bell hop- has three mysterious suitcases at his disposal

Mafia don- immune from madman, has single hit

Bartender (new role)- will hear tidbits of nightly info

Madman- one hit per night to use on innocents

Accomplice- able to investigate to find innocents

Snitch (new role)- lone "mafia" player who must post lists of possible madmen for the town


*and I also mentioned that this game will consist of smaller groups of communicating players. My thoughts...

Doc w/ 2 innocents
Det w/ 2 innocents
Snitch w/ 2 innocents
Bellhop w/ bartender
Don (alone)
-------

Madman w/ accomplice. If snitch is investigated by accomplice they will be able to communicate.

= total of 14 players minimum. I will do adjusting based on actual amount.

Innocents win when they banish (lynch) the madman

Madman and his/her team win when they outnumber the innocents

I will post the full set of rules later if anyone wants to see them. Please post any suggestions/comments/questions that could help strengthen or clarify the game play.

I'm looking for 14 players minimum and will not start until after the new year. I will also get together a list of possible/probable nighttime dates and times soon. Start recruiting, and as always, new players are welcome!!! :)

Just a couple of clarifications, JPap:

You've got the Don role highlighted in blue above, which I am assuming is a townie role, and the snitch role highlighted as red (which I am assuming is evil)... you then go on say that the snitch will be communicating with 2 innocents.

Can you confirm if the snitch is on the side of the good or evils, and assuming evil, is it your intention to have them communicating with the townies?

Also, you have the Don listed as a communicating role, but it looks like he can only talk to himself. :)
 
Also, just a thought... as a lynch of the madman ends the game, you might consider changing the win condition for the evils to that they win when their numbers equal that of the innocents (versus outnumbering). Seems small, but it gives them a slightly better chance, which might be fairer, as the death of one of their teammates can end the game for them.
 
What is the anticipated start date?

I agree since there are only 3 evils in the game.


I think the best would be Bellhop with the Bartender and if the Det finds them they can talk.

Doc w/ 2 innocents
Det w/ 2 innocents
Snitch w/ 2 innocents
Bellhop w/ bartender

Don will count towards the innocent tally and wins when the town does. Gives them more incentive this time around rather than wait it out.

Snitch is technically a mafia player but is stuck with the innocents on purpose. They won't be able to communicate with their teammates unless the accomplice investigates the snitch. Sort of a lone mafia role but stuck with the opposite team.

Thanks for that suggestion Mad, and I agree, it would give the evils a fairer chance.

Ice: are you saying that the Det and the two innocents they are communicating with would join the bellhop/bartender team if investigated?

Noods, game will start the 2nd of Jan. at the earliest. I'm thinking sometime that weekend though.
