Box Office Mafia
Game type:
Mini Theme
Basic Mechanics:
1) The setup consists of 13 actors
2) Each actor will have 2 roles from movies he has acted in. The game and the Role PMs will refer to them as "Past" and "Future" roles respectively. ("Past" and "Future" only denotes that the first movie came before the second for that particular actor.)
Note: Not every actor will fit to the above description
3) Introducing the "Box Office (BO)" mechanic. Along with the lynch each day, all players vote on whether to change the current BO to "Past" or "Future" respectively. If there is no majority on the BO voting whenever lynch or no lynch occurs, then the BO remains what it was. At the start of the game, BO will start in the "Future" mode.
Note: The BO voting is not the only way in the game to change the BO mode.
4) In a battle between game balance and flavor, balance has always won. So if something seems a little different flavor-wise, take it with a pinch of salt.
Other Info:
1) Not guaranteed to be a "No Vanilla" setup
2) Role PM quoting is allowed (The rest of my standard ruleset applies)
Pre-ins:
There will be no pre-ins for this game. However given that it is the next game in the Mini theme queue, signups should have started or be close to starting by the time you see this.
