Hello & welcome to Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance Mafia!*



[collapse=Rule Set]Rules:

¤You will receive a non-negotiable warning for your first offense [forced replacement pending] and immediate forced replacement upon second offense.
2) The Game Moderator is Xiivi and all official information and rulings will come directly from the Game Moderator. Any appointed Co-Moderators by the Game Moderator may do so as well. Jungle and Evil Eye are currently the only two appointed Co-Moderators.
3) Editing your posts is not allowed, and multi-posting is instead encouraged in its place. Any and all edits will be reversed.
4) If you are allowed to communicate with another player outside of this thread, then please follow the communication instructions within your role PM. If there are no specific communication instructions within your role PM then you are unable to converse with any other person about this game with exception of the Game Moderator and Co-Moderators. This includes anyone you believe to be a non-player and anyone you believe to be dead and/or removed/replaced from the game. This applies while you are living, dead, and/or removed/replaced from the game. You do not have full knowledge of the mechanics of the game and thus should not assume you are free to communicate outside of these instructions or those in your role PM. These communication rules last until the game's conclusion.
¤You will receive a warning [modkill pending] for your first offense and immediate modkill upon second offense.
5) Do not quote role PMs or any other form of communication with the Game Moderator unless your role PM explicitly states you can (in which case follow the instructions in your role PM). You may paraphrase your role PM as you see fit, but keep everything in your own words.
¤You will receive an immediate modkill [pending review] upon this offense.
6) Your ability to follow [or ability to contact the Game Moderator for clarification] the rules and any instructions in your role PM serves as your confirmation for this game. There is no official confirmation phase. Please see the disclaimer at the bottom of this post.
7) All votes must follow the format of "Vote: NAME" and be easily noticeable. Typos, errors in the format, and awkward placement will be counted at the Game Moderator's discretion; the Game Moderator will not answer if something will or will not be counted. All official Vote Counts will serve as the answer to whether or not something is counted.
8) You are not required to unvote, however if you do, then please use the format of "Unvote:". The same rules for counting unvotes apply as per votes outlined in Rule #7.
9) No Lynch is a valid vote target.

12) B) Deadline for the Night Phase will equal a time of two days.
13) During any day phase a player may perform the command "Request: Deadline Extension". The deadline will be extended by five days if a majority of players perform this command. This can only be done thrice over the course of the game and the deadline will not be extended for any other reason; including site error. It is expected players will be aware of all deadlines [regardless of placement or frequency of posting] and will accommodate and be prepared for any such interference.
15) Twilight Phase will occur between Day Phase and Night Phase for a variable period; minimal of 24 hours. All living players including any lynch targets will be allowed to communicate in thread until a Night start scene is posted.
16) After your death and/or removal/replacement from the game you are not allowed to post in the game thread until the game has concluded.

[collapse=Set-Up]This is a Closed Set-up for 16 Players with all roles randomly assigned only player-wise and not flavour-wise. The flavour takes characters from the Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance video game. The website fireemblem.wikia.com was used extensively during the creation of this game.
I confirm the absence of the following Independent Roles in this set-up: Contract Hitman, Jester, Mime, Politician, Rogue, Siblings, Survivor
I do not confirm the presence or absence of all other Independent Roles.
I confirm there is a Town faction [called Mercenary in this game] and there is at least one Mafiosi faction; although I do not confirm the number of Mafiosi factions [any and all game-specific names unspecified].
I do not confirm the presence or absence of alignment-altering roles.
I do not confirm that all information relayed from the Game Moderator in private is strictly accurate; although possibly incomplete.
I do confirm that all information relayed from the Game Moderator in public is strictly accurate; although possibly incomplete.
I confirm this game will use Natural Action Resolution.
Here is a sample PM:[collapse=Example]


“Save the thanks for until after the duke of Felirae is taken care of. We can hold the party at my place.”

Role:
Calill, Vanilla Mercenary

Abilities: Your only abilities are your voice and vote; now's the time to make them count!
Win Condition: You win once all threats to the town are eliminated.[/collapse][/collapse]

[collapse=About the Game Moderator]Xiivi: I am an Admin on this site and specifically a moderator of Decisive Games. I first played mafia on this site, in a game titled 'Disney Mafia' hosted by former moderator of Decisive Games 'Tom' which can be accessed in the archive. I have since played and hosted on this site, mafiascum, and others. I often go into extremely long technical wording for my games, both in the rules and the role PMs. I will often use many types of roles in order to keep the metagame diverse for players. This includes roles I dislike, disagree with, feel are unbalanced, know are unconventional, have as experimental, make from scratch, flip the alignment of, etc... I do not believe cookie cutter roles are vital, nor do I believe only one of a certain role can exist in a set-up. I believe there is a lot of room to utilize in mafia and that you can do so even with normal constraints as long as you have some creativity. I feel the game of mafia is naturally balanced against the town for the majority of standard ratios when played out at a competitive level and even moreso when communication is available for non-town factions; this does not mean I will or will not attempt to counter-act for this natural balance. I do aim to make games enjoyable with flavour however it is never a focal point as that belongs to the competitive aspect. I believe there is no proof of guilt in this game outside of mechanics and that if that is what you search for when playing you will fail in your attempts to win as town. Instead I believe town is most successful when gauging intent and then convincing others by whatever means necessary to secure a lynch. I believe non-town does not have these restrictions in getting to their win conditions, thus making those roles much easier to win with. I prefer playing as town as I feel it is significantly more challenging than non-town. I do not play video games anymore, however Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance was one of the last games I played and one of the few I completed in entirety. I feel the flavour lends itself well to mafia and should be enjoyable for you. I hope you play to win, but also to your enjoyment. I don't feel you should continue playing if doing so is not to your enjoyment.[/collapse]

[collapse=Game Introduction]The Greil Mercenaries have been subject to constant assualts from their foes. The situation has grown dire with the group finding themselves backed into an abandoned fort in Cremia. The fort is forked deep within a thick forest, leaving little sunlight to come through during the daytime. The group has be forced to deal with nightly assualts from enemy forces, and has begun to feel hopeless and trapped. Calill is the group's first casualty while in this situation, but the group fears for the worst. There only hope is to eliminate their enemies and make it out before they are overrun.[/collapse]
*It is expected that you will have read both this post and your own role PM in full before posting in this thread. You assume all responsibility as a player for any actions you take concerning this game. It is expected that if there is any ambiguity you will first seek the Game Moderator for clarification before pursuing any action you are unclear of.

Greetings, Gentlemen. This is my second game of mafia, my first was in the BBR edition of Death Note Mafia.

I do hope you'll welcome me, and I look forward to playing with you here in DGames.

I'm disappointed that I can't use my traditional green font though. :(

EST is GMT -5
Stupid Google -.-. GMT-5 also makes a lot more sense, now that I think about it.

Anyways, I'm BeatStick (you can call me Beat though) and this will be my very first game of mafia. I've done quite a bit of lurking the past month though (some of you might have noticed me, I dunno), and I've skimmed through the newbie guides, so I'm familiar with *almost* all the terms and stuff. I hope I won't be considered completely ********, but if I am, please point out what I'm doing wrong :).

Regardless, good luck!

Fire Emblem PoR is full of characters considered "good" so scum should be safe in regards to safeclaims
Nonetheless I guess important characters like Ike, Soren, Titania, Boyd and Misty have been assigned as town roles since it would be weird to leave those as safe claims or out from this game

So... do we full-claim?

This is one of the great things about using Fire Emblem for flavour. It's full of characters that can fit many diverse roles and alignments, and also provide many, many safe claims.

Don't mistake that to mean that more central characters are guaranteed to be of expected alignment just because there are plenty of other "minor characters" to assign as safeclaims or non-town roles. If you look to Ronike's old fire emblem game, you'll see right away that some characters that one might expect to have been town aligned just based on flavour turned out to be quite the opposite.

Not sure if your call for a full claim (assuming you mean name claim) is serious, but either way it's a poorly founded suggestion.

And if you were suggesting a full role claim, even more so.

FoS: Nabe
This is a horrible suggestion, smart mods will occasionally make those characters safe-claims for exactly this reason (I seem to remember Xiivi a particularly awesome one, don't remember which one it was off the top of my head). So, since it doesn't absolutely clear anyone, odds are we're just gonna succeed in outing PRs. At the very least you should've suggested name-claiming, but again since it doesn't produce any real clears and assists scum in discerning PRs, I don't see this as a particularly effective strategy.

Works in an open setup though, sometimes.



Regardless, you're probably town, this suggestion strikes me as sincere and the type of mistake town rajam would make. The fact that you suggested full-claiming does give me a bit of pause, but not enough to question my claim because it's the same type of error, not considering the implications of a suggested course of action. Also, townie recklessness.

Lololol RVS. :awesome:

You flatter me too much, it's not good for my ego. :p
You're welcome, but I actually had a slightly more practical goal in mind with that post, I wanted people to know you're a strong player (if presumably unrefined) so we don't let you off as noobtown if you do something scummy for example. Since there are only a couple of players here who have access to the BBR I wanna get it out there now so everyone can get a read on you.

Oh the game started LOL.

1. adumbrodeus

'Sup. There are a coupl'a BBR's in here that I'm really unfamiliar with, like Rajam and Raziek. If I get town vibes from you, is it safe for me to trust your reads on these two players if I can't get one myself?

2. BeatStick

You said you was a nub, but I'm not gonna hold that against you, or treat you differently for it. You said you've been lurking for the past month? What people in this game are you familiar with from the past month, not on reading wise, but out of curiousity? What games, if any, have you read in full? Or are you just reading games that are currently playing/recently played?

3. Cdubs1987

Soz you're FF's bud? Sweet. I'll hope you're good. You've never played forum mafia, iirc, or just in mafiascum? Mind giving us your forum maf experience if you've had any?

4. frozenflame751

Will being buds with Cdubz make it fairly easy to read 'em, or no? This is more of a question of curiosity other than anything.

5. Glyph

Lol DRoom maf. From all of the experience you've learned from mafia so far, what's one big thing you think is important to keep in mind as town, and one important thing to keep in mind as town? Yes, please answer.

6. Gordito

O U!

7. Luxor

You're new too, right? But you hydra'd with Kuz in some game, I think SC. Why'd you hydra for your first game, out of curiousity? And how much did you actually play? Only answer the latter question if Soul Calibur was the game you hydra'd with Kuz.

8. Nabe

Heh Nabe. You gonna do that silly ol' Sherlock thingy?

9. Nicholas1024

I played aimmaf with you right? I think I did. Welp, I've read some of your games. Are you gonna be as hardheaded as I remember you being, where if you get a scum feel, you'll stick to it?

10. Overswarm

Vote: Overswarm

Best to do as town OR scum :p <3

11. Rajam

Not much to say here, from what I remember you're it doesn't help with much. Mostly gonna rely on a town adumb with my read on you, cuz you tend to do scummy things as town (Villains -__-). Is your activity gonna be a problem like it was there?

12. Raziek

I REALLY don't know you, but asking about previous maf experience is useless cuz it's already been answered. I look foward to playing wit cha.

13. Red Ryu

What are you flaming doing here?

14. Vult Redux

Iirc, you've been in DGames for a while, but I haven't seen you around any games at all. How's your mafia experience, and who do you know here?

15. X1-12

Yo mang how youz been? Not much here, considering you've been in just about every game I've been in, but I look foward to a game with you that Swiss ISN'T in (I think Villains was the only one, and I was maf, so that doesn't count for shiz :p).

16. Zεη

Zen... Nothin to say :p.

Man no-one even comments on me ****ing about...

Fortunately I've just been given a gift from the heavens, listing every player like that when there is definitely nothing to say about them is probably the stongest standard tell there is

We should quick lynch Gordito, unless you guys want get more connections between him, but at this point, his buds would just be distancing themselves.
