General Rules:

Site-wide rules always apply here.
If you have a question for me, you can always PM me. If you need to talk to me in thread,
please bold your question like this
so I can locate it better.
You may not use hidden or encrypted text. I decide if the text is small enough to be count as hidden text.
If you have a power to edit/delete your post, don't do it. If you scumslip, just accept it and eat rope.
Play nice. Insulting players with using any form of racial/sexual slur or any kind of derogatory languages or excessive harassing in any way will result in immediate force-replacement.
Do not EVER discuss the ongoing games in this thread nor discuss this game elsewhere, no matter how informative it is.
Do not use provable randomization in this game. Saying that you rolled a dice is fine, using dice tag is not.
This is my color. (#408000) Don't use it.
If I find the certain factors/actions damaging the state of the game, I will intervene and/or take action.
If you break these rules, I have full rights to punish you at my will. This can range from simple warning to modkill/force-replace.
If I feel like it, I always have a full right to add/modify the rules. If I do, I will fully explain the reason behind such action.
Most importantly, have fun!

Requesting and Using Mod-Given Information / Clarification

You may ask for clarification or information about roles and mechanics on thread or via PM, case by case. However, all "hypothetical situation" questions must be asked via PM only.
Please refrain from saying things like "mod said" unless necessary. Don't drag me into this game.
When using the information I provided, do not quote it word-by-word. Paraphrase it. When in doubt, PM me first.

Voting:

You can vote by either using bold tag([
b]Vote:GuyInFreezer[/b
]) or using vote tag ([
vote]GuyInFreezer[/vote
]). However, try to use vote tag if possible. It's kinda hard for me to locate bold votes.
Unvote is not required to change your vote. Also, if it looks like a vote for someone, I will count it. No tricking me!
A player is sent to the dead PT when the majority votes the same player. Once the player is sent to the dead PT, the target and the rest may talk until I get back and post the flip.
If the deadline is reached before someone is sent to the dead PT, the day will end
without anyone being sent to the dead PT
, unless mentioned otherwise.
If you're killed during the night phase, you may post one information-less "bah" post on the following day.
If the game reaches endgame and I'm not around yet to resolve it, dead players may not post until I finish resolving the endgame.

Activity and Deadline:

Deadline for Day 1 is
10 days
and subsequent days are
7 days
. Deadline for each night is
2 days
.
If you're on V/LA, please tell me beforehand by either post it in thread (bolded) or PM to me.
If you don't post here for 36 real hours, I will prod you. Failure to receive prod within 24 hours or receiving a 3rd prod will cause force-replacement.
If you do not submit an action before the day ends, it will count as
No Action
.
If I have to extend the deadline, I will. If I do, I will post it on thread.

Introduction and Tips

Thanks to Irrelephant11 and others for their contributions to these tips.

Here are some helpful links (a lot of them from our helpful wiki):

-> Forum Rules and Guidelines
-> The Glossary
-> Commonly Used Abbreviations
-> The Newbie Guide
-> Articles on How to Play Well (be sure to check the dates these were written/updated, as good advice changes over time)

Key Concepts and Tips

Activity

Try to check in at least once a day.

Besides the activity requirements listed in the moderator's original post, it's just necessary for a fun and healthy game that everyone

plays

. If you post very rarely, or only post a little bit at a time, you may get scumread for lurking. Even if you are not scumread for it, what's the fun in playing a game where multiple people are hardly participating?

Site Meta

Meta is the description of how people on Mafiascum like to play mafia. Things can be different on other online mafia sites, or if you play IRL, so it's good to know what's expected of you on this site. These aren't "rules", per se, but if you don't follow these guidelines it is likely things will go poorly for you on MS. Some examples are...

Random Voting Stage (RVS)

Games on MafiaScum almost always begin with what we call the Random Voting Stage (RVS). At this point in the game, we are in a low information game state (except the mafia, which know everyone’s alignment). As a way to provoke reaction, start a discussion, and try to determine alignment, people will usually vote for non-serious reasons. As the discussion progresses, we will eventually get the game moving and progress out of RVS.

Voting, E-x, and Hammers

E-x is a way to convey how far away a player is away from elimination. For example, you should always announce that you are putting someone at E-1 (1 vote away from an elimination) so that someone doesn’t come along and accidentally vote for that player's elimination. This also prevents Mafia-aligned players from coming along and placing the final vote to eliminate (“hammer”) and claiming ignorance about doing so. You may also see E-2 and E-3 (2 votes away from elimination and 3 votes away from elimination, respectively).

Before you hammer a player, state your intent to hammer (usually done in bold) and ask the player to claim their role. This is done to prevent power roles from being eliminated, and can sometimes get Mafia-aligned players to be caught (via counter claiming). It's best to then allow other players to react and discuss the claim before hammering.

Claiming Your Role

It is almost always best to not claim your role unless you are at E-1 and have been asked to claim as part of an “intent to hammer.” This is because, as a town power role (“PR”), if you out prematurely, you are likely to be night-killed (“NK’d”). As a Vanilla Townie (“VT”), claiming early helps the mafia team narrow down the setup and possible PR candidates. An exception to this would be if a mafia player claimed your role, claiming early to counter the false claim (“CC”) would out the mafia player, and would be a benefit to the town.

Do not fake claim a power role as town!

While it may help you avoid getting eliminated, you might cause a real PR to out themselves by counterclaiming - then the mafia will know who the PR is, and you will probably get eliminated for lying to town. Feel free to fake a claim as scum, though, if you think it would help.

ELo

ELo is the shortened representation of “Eliminate or Lose.” ELo in the Newbie Queue is when there are 3 remaining players, 2 of which are town and 1 is mafia; or when there are 5 remaining players, 3 of which are town and 2 are mafia. It is important in these situations that the town aligned players do not carelessly vote like is done during RVS or early days, as the mafia player(s) can organize and instantly provide the necessary votes to eliminate (“quickhammer”) and win the game.

Conclusion

Mafia is hard!

As town, it can be hard to figure things out, and stressful when people think you're scum.

That's okay!

Just share your thoughts on who you think is scum as they come to you, and don't be afraid to change your mind. As scum, it can be hard to lie convincingly, and stressful when people think you're scum. Don't let that scare you! Try to think of what you would post if you were town, and don't be afraid to "change your mind".

This is a game.

Have fun!
