Mafia on Holy Orders (Game Over!)

As you lay asleep, your mind's eye turns to a dark, cool indigo. A voice, just beyond your comprehension but definitely audible...

"Hearken, children of the
Righteous
...

"You are favored by the
One
above and tasked with the most important duty you will ever face. The hamlet in which you live is destined to be the origin of the coming cataclysm, unless it is stopped pre-emptively. It is up to you to find and expulse the
Demons
lurking in the shadows as they prepare for the arrival of their mas

ter. Succeed in this endeavor, and all of humanity will be indebted to you. Fail, and you will bear responsibility for the coming of a
being
of such unspeakable evil that the world will never recover.

"You shall be granted all of the courage and aptitude necessary to perform this feat. Do not fear, for
I
am always watching and protecting you..."

And without warning, the world fades again to black.

The next morning, a small group of you gather around the center of main street and see a
sigil
burned into the ground. That's when you realize this is no dream, your adrenaline wells up, and...

How this game works:

Ruleset stolen from Vi, who modified it a bit from Vi, who secretly heisted it from Vi.
Rules in bold have changed from the norm or are otherwise especially worth reading.

--Confirmation Period (Pregame):
1.
What is it?
This is the period between when you /in to play and when I open the game thread for Day 1.
2.
Mafia Pregame Talk:
The Mafia are allowed to speak to each other via their QuickTopic during pregame. I will tell them when they can no longer post in their QuickTopic (when Day begins).
3.
Pregame is for Confirming.
Confirmation will be done via PM in this game. After I create the game thread, I will send out Role PMs. Please confirm by quoting your Role PM to me and adding "/confirm".
4.
Can we start yet?
When all but three players have confirmed, I will unlock the game thread for Day 1.

--Morning:
1.
What is it? What do I do?
Calm down, for one. This is just the first 24 hours of the Day. Any actions that would resolve instantly during this time will instead resolve at the end of the Morning. This prevents silliness like "I have to submit this action six seconds after the Day begins or it will get blocked".


--Day:
1.
What is it? What do I do?
This is the period during which everyone who's alive can post in this topic. The Righteous (Town) wishes to find and lynch the members of the Demons (Mafia) or anyone else whose Win Condition requires the Righteous to die.
2.
What is voting, and how do I do it?
Players may vote for a person they want to see lynched by posting
Vote: PLAYERNAME
somewhere in their posts. I won't accept it if it's not in bold, but if it looks like it's in that format I'll accept it.
3.
What is unvoting?
You can also unvote players, like:
Unvote: PLAYERNAME
. This is not required in between votes, but helpful.
4.
Do we have to lynch?
You are allowed to vote to No Lynch (
Vote: No Lynch
). This will take effect if no other majority can be formed from the players off the No Lynch wagon.
5.
Can the Mafia talk to each other during the Day?
Yes.
6.
Prod/Replacement Policy:
Prods are done
by request only in this game, and only
on players who have been absent for 72 hours. Players who do not respond to prods within 48 hours will be forcibly replaced at the earliest opportunity.
7.
Player Abandonment Policy:
If half of the player list needs replacement at any one time, I will ask the remaining players if they want to keep the game alive. If a majority of the remaining players does not respond "Yes" OR I cannot find replacements within three days, I will declare the game abandoned and it will end right there.
8.
Deadlines:
See the Hawt New Game Mechanic. You know what's coming.~
9.
When does the Day end?
The Day ends when a certain number of players (called the lynch threshold and usually a true majority of the living players) is voting the same player or No Lynch. If a majority of the living players are voting for someone, that player will immediately be LYNCHED (killed, removed from the game) and the Day will continue.
10.
What happens at deadline?
The vote count is reset.

--Twilight:
1.
*sparkle*
THIS IS WHAT TRUE FEAR LOOKS LIKE
2.
What is it?
This is the period between when the hammer vote (the last vote placed that put someone at a majority) and when the mod shows up to post a reveal. There is nothing special about Twilight in this game.

--Night:
1.
What is it?
Something that doesn't apply to this game. This game is Instant Night.

--THINGS THAT YOU CANNOT DO:
1.
Can I talk about this game elsewhere?
While this game is ongoing, you are NOT allowed to discuss it in other topics/games (as this will likely get you modkilled in that game
as well as
this one). PMing other players about the game will result in a modkill. This game is in
this topic
, the Mafia QuickTopic, and in specific places that have previously been given my okay. That's it.
2.
You use cool colors! Can I use them?
No. Impersonating the mod is both cheesy and fraudulent. I will use
gray
in my modtext. Do not use gray in your posts, or risk being modkilled.
3.
I know how to prove my Towniness! I'll post my Role PM!
No you won't. Quoting your Role PM or anything I tell you via PM will result in your modkill.
4.
Okay, but I can still prove my Towniness through other, clever ways...
No you won't. As a moderator I try to avoid betraying who the scum are through any means. If you try to break the game, etc. through invisible text, steganography/cryptography, etc., you will be modkilled.
4.
I have mod powers... so I can edit/delete this post... right?
No. What you post in this topic STAYS in this topic. If you multipost because the board is messing up, I will not delete the extra posts.
5.
I'm dead. Can I still post?
No, with one exception. A recently decased player (i.e. someone who died within one page) may make a "bah" post consisting of the letter 'N' followed by as many lowercase 'o's as you prefer. Nothing else is acceptable. You have 20 posts from the time of your death to make this "bah" post.
6.
You talk a lot about modkills. What is a modkill?
Pretty self-explanatory on its face - I kill you immediately. I also change your role retroactively to Neutral Survivor - meaning you auto-lose. If you give away game-sensitive information, I will kill one of your partners too - something you REALLY don't want.

--Other:
1.
Stuff (stolen from Wizcat).
I am never wrong. Unless, of course, reality has warped, making me wrong. Please point occasions where this may have occurred out to me so that I may kick reality's ass. I specifically read for bold text, so use that if you want my attention.
2.
Theme Game Disclaimer.
This game is not obligated to make sense until it is over. I may include any number of exotic roles and abilities in this game -
and you will like it
.
2)
Miscellaneous.
Play to win.
3)
Other Things.
Have fun. Or else. And remember, it's a game - keep it classy and don't take things personally; everyone's doing what they have to to win.
4)
One More Thing.
Don't annoy the mod. The mod annoys back.
5)
Etc..
Etc. (Note: I reserve the right to clarify "Etc." at any time, to include adding or changing rules. You will be notified if that happens.)

--Hawt New Game Mechanic rules:
1.
Modified Deep South.
There is no Night phase. Actions resolve immediately unless otherwise stated. Informative roles may receive results at the end of the Day even though their action resolved earlier. If for some reason you wish to proxy your action to a later time that game Day, you may do so.

1A.
Instant Night.
There is no Night phase. Actions resolve at the same time as the lynch unless otherwise stated.
1B.
Role Overlap Policy.
If there is ever an issue with getting actions to resolve cleanly (i.e. mutual Roleblocks), priority is given to the first action submitted.
2.
Battery-Powered Deadlines.
With each vote count I will tell you what percentage of the Day remains. That percentage will decrease according to a number of factors, the most important one being genuine activity. When the percentage reaches 0%, the deadline falls and the Day ends.
3.
Holy Orders.
This mechanic will not be explained until the endgame.

=====

This is what a sample Role PM would look like.
~NAME~


Welcome to
Mafia on Holy Orders
. You are one of the
Righteous
.

You have no special abilities at this time.

You win when no living player's Win Condition requires members of the Righteous to die.

Please confirm via PM. I wish you the best of luck.

One of the ????'s is Sottyrulez, does anyone have any idea who the other is? It was a pre-in who's name never got revealed, so probably not.

I must say, as a music major (who is currently being forced into a year's sabbatical), I love the constant song references. :D

Also Plum, I promise no post restrictions will be feigned here. ^^

I was totally expecting that Come Sail Away link to be the Styx song...which I'm not a huge fan of. Instead it's awesome Donkey Kong music!

I'm starting my semi-flavorless games with Come Sail Away as an homage to Mafia ViPod... where it WAS referring to the Styx song.
Last time the link went to this. ~Vi
