The heroes sat and rested. They had all undergone many trials and challenges in order to save their own respective worlds. They had saved princesses. Protected holy crystals. They'd even raced multicoloured birds for Gaia's sake! But now, cheesy money-spinning sequels aside, they were free. They could live in peace at last.
Or could they?
Fighting for the fate of the world had taken a heavy toll on the FF characters. Perhaps it was one random encounter too many. It could be because all the hi-potions that they'd heartily drank drew their curative properties from lead. Maybe they'd been exposed to more girly pretty boys with ridiculous hair than is healthy. Whatever the reason, something snapped inside some of the Final Fantasy characters. They turned their thoughts to their fellow townmates. They turned their thoughts to murder.
There would be no Phoenix Downs to save them this time...
YOUR MODERATOR
That would be[M] Bahamut! No, voting for him is not the hilarious prank you think it is, and he can't die anyway so there's no points. Psychotic and qwertyxsora are the ones who will be logging into this account. We'll help to tell the story, produce vote counts and move the game along.
All night actions will be PMed to [M] Bahamut.
DAY AND NIGHT
The game is divided up into a day phase and a night phase. Both the day phase and the night phase will last a maximum of 24 hours. We can and will change this if we feel the game is too fast or too slow. During the day phase, discussion takes place, as well as voting. The day ends with a town member being lynched, and then the night phase will begin. This thread will be closed at that point. Those who have night abilities will submit them, and once that is done (or once the deadline expires) a new day will begin.
VOTING
Every player must vote, and must do so on every day that they are alive. So if you're not going to be around for the deadline, it's best to get a vote in beforehand.
When voting, please do it in this format
##vote: name
You can also unvote for people. This takes the same form:
##unvote: name
When a majority vote is reached, the day will end and that person will be lynched. If there is no majority by the voting deadline, the person with the highest vote count will be lynched. In the event of a tie, there will be sudden death.
BASIC RULES
Borrowed from Miriel (hey we wrote the rest of this post ourselves, okay? )Regarding roles and accounts
- Unless specifically mentioned in your Assignment PMs, all Mafia related discussion must happen in the Official game thread. Please do not discuss the game using instant messengers, IRC, Private Messages, voice chats, phone calls, snail mail etc. etc. No, we can't enforce this because we can't spy on you, but we would appreciate it if you followed this simple rule.
- Do not reveal your role privately to each other. You can of course roleclaim as part of your strategy in this thread. Just don't do it outside the game.
- Play nice. Even if you are using second accounts, don't resort to flaming and whatnot. Kill each other without resorting to being mean.
- Please make all posts in the Game thread under your specific Mafia accounts.
- Play fair. Also known as the "don't be an ass" rule. Being an ass includes cheating, diverging completely from your assigned role, going back and deleting or editing all your posts, using asshole-ish methods [M] to find out information about other people's roles, etc.
- Do NOT use your Mafia accounts to post in any non-Mafia related threads.
- You CANNOT abstain from voting!
- NEW RULE OH MAH GAWD! Don't post your Role PM in the thread as part of a roleclaim. Use your own words to prove your role, not ours.
ROLES IN USE
- All roles were randomly assigned to each Mafia account, and each Mafia account was randomly assigned to each player using Random.org. So please don't assume that roles were assigned based on a Final Fantasy character's personality.
Psy's note: It may seem like your role reflects your character because of the role PM, but that's just me trying to add some flavour to the game. They really were all assigned at random.- Also keep in mind that this is NOT a roleplaying game. You are not expected to act as though you are the person whose name you are occupying. And continually doing so throughout the game is discouraged. Cause, you know, that's just silly. The FF character names are merely vehicles that we're using to play the game.
- Do not tell anyone the name of the account you are controlling. And don't use not-so-subtle hints, either, like arguing/agreeing with your real account, mentioning your real account's name and so on. Just use your brain.
Most can be found in this flash. We may have modified some roles to make them more interesting or balanced, but the basics are all there. It's nothing you can't handle.
There are NO vanilla townies in this game.
We would like to make it clear that we took the issues of balancing and what would make a fun, chaotic game into account when we chose the roles to be used in the game.
