The race for Chief of Surgery is on at Happy Sunshine Hospital. All the top doctors are gunning for the job and everyone is on edge. Recently, there has been a string of deaths at Happy Sunshine. The patients are nervous and the staff is frantic. The patients don't want to be next and the doctors don't want to be blamed for the deaths. Can the culprits be found before the hospital's reputation is compromised?

Coming this July to the Open Queue:


In lands now lost to the sands of time
Arrives only pilgrims seeking the divine
Though amidst them, evil plots its crime…
Murder, through poisoned bread and tainted wine


Pilgrimage Pillage
: A Faith Plus One Open Game with a generic (read: nonspecific to era to avoid needlessly pissing people off) holy land flavor
Moderator: DarthYoshi. Magua has kindly agreed to backup mod me in case I get raptured.

The setup:


3 Mafia Goons
2 Town-aligned Faith Healers
1 Town-aligned Sane Alignment Cop
7 Vanilla Townies

Special mechanics:


-Both Faith Healers receive identical role PMs, and would simply flip “Town-aligned Faith Healer” upon death, but one’s protection is always 100% effective and the other’s is always 0% effective. Y'know, one of them having God on their side and whatnot. :P
-Exception to the above rule: if both Faith Healers protect the same person on a given night, the protection is guaranteed to fail.

Day Start.

If you’re psyched enough to want to pre-/in, I’ve got room for 5 more, so PM me. It’ll be epic.

Africa

One of the last true meccas of natural wonder on earth. Hundreds of thousands of animals roam the plains in large herds, coexisting with one another as they have for generations upon end. It truely is a sight to behold, and an experience that will last a lifetime. In this world life is balanced ever so carefully, and one false move can spell death for not only yourselves, but for those around you. Tread softly, and be ever vigilant if you wish to survive this trip...

Bureaucratic announcement, for 24 player Africa predator-prey themed game. Yadda yadda, one month activity on site required with no mass flakings or MY determination of equivilant offsite experience. Pre-ins taken, game should start taking signups in a week etc etc.

Once upon a time...

In the magical land of Equestria, there were two regal sisters who ruled together and created harmony for all the land. To do this, the eldest used her unicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn. The younger brought out the moon to begin the night. Thus, the two sisters maintained balance for their kingdom and their subjects: all the different types of ponies.
But as time went on, the younger sister became resentful. The ponies relished and played in the day her elder sister brought forth, but shunned and slept through her beautiful night. One fateful day, the younger unicorn refused to lower the moon to make way for the dawn. The elder sister tried to reason with her, but the bitterness in the young one's heart had transformed her into a wicked mare of darkness: Nightmare Moon. She vowed that she would shroud the land in eternal night.

Reluctantly, the elder sister harnessed the most powerful magic known to ponydom: The Elements of Harmony! Using the magic of The Elements of Harmony, she defeated her younger sister and banished her permanently in the moon. The elder sister took on responsibility for both sun and moon.

But now... There is a new threat to the magical land of Equestria...

This will be a 14 player pony-themed game. I am accepting pre /ins over in the MD PONIEZ discussion thread at http://www.mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopi ... =5&t=17580

Eligibility Rules:

1) You must have at least 1 completed game on site.
2) Persons known to flake from games may be denied entry.
3) Contrary to the theme selected, this is a game and mafia can be competitive, thus the moderation rules for this game will be rather lax. If you can't handle this, please don't /in
4) This game will be a shitpost-free zone. If you have a history of disruptive or trollish behavior in game threads, expect to be denied entry.

The Glue Factory

You job; gentleponies, is to find those amongst you that would drag you off to the glue factory.

By the middle of the 21st Century, organ failure had become a worldwide epidemic... But GeneCo was there to satisfy the need for organ replacements. The problem is, if you miss a payment, GeneCo sends out the Repo Man... and if he finds you... your time is up.

A game based around the steampunk-esque cult hit, Repo! The Genetic Opera, Repo! Mafia is a 13p Mini Theme modded by InflatablePie and co/backup-mod jmj3000. Flavor knowledge is recommended, but not required.

Coming very soon to the top of the Mini Theme queue - accepting /pre-ins!

Neon Genesis Evangelion Mafia


Mod:
Kdub
Setup Reviewers:
Andrius, Empking, Korashk, Papa Zito

This will be a Large Theme game for 23 players. It will draw material from both the original anime series, as well as the Rebuild of Evangelion movies. Flavor knowledge may be helpful, but is not required. Due to the complexity of this game, I am going to require players to have completed at least one large theme or two mini themes before signing up.

Warning:
This is a fairly ambitious setup and is going to contain some non-standard role interactions/mechanics and will generally be swingy. There will be things in this game that would be considered bastard (although I will never directly lie to the players). Despite that, I have spent a lot of effort on designing and balancing this game, and I think it has the potential to be a lot of fun. Pre-ins are being accepted via PM.

Mortal Kombat Mafia


Type of Game:
Large Theme

Flavor:
The 6 Realms are once again threatened by evil forces. With more and more people against the survival of these realms, the Elder Gods once again create the Mortal Kombat tournament, forcing the heroes from each realm to step forward and defend their land. With many warriors coming from many different places, peace and stability must be defended.

Special Mechanics:


Mortal Kombat Mechanic
(instead of voting to lynch, you vote to Choose two Kombatants during the Day phase by majority vote. Once two combatants are chosen, only those two Kombatants may talk, but not vote. They both must fight for survival against the other Kombatant in a 1-on-1 mafia match. Everyone else does not talk, however, they vote until a majority has been reached. Once a majority has been reached, I will ask the winning Kombatant to FINISH HIM/HER. The winning Kombatant gets the last post and the losing Kombatant dies to a Stage Fatality, pre-set at the beginning of the day. Night phase begins after.

Players:
25

Experience:
Mariposa Peak Mafia (Mini Normal), demonhybrids mafia game of fun amazingness, for real (Open Game), Mafia on Werewolf Island! (Large Normal)

Backup/Co-Mod:
Pending...

Reviewers:
singersigner, Faraday, Kdub

Required experience:

-All players must have been playing mafia on this (or any other mod-approved) website for 1 month.
-I require one game to be finished (Newbie or Otherwise) and a history of non-flaking/non-constant replacing.
-Must be on good standing with the Moderator. I reserve the right to deny anyone the ability to play in this game due to the discipline needed during the special mechanics.

Cyclic Experimentation Set x02.


A man hung suspended above the floor in the hallway by a crude sort of javelin. Not that this was of any importance to the entourage that swept ceremoniously past. One of the secretaries trailing behind like a desperate imp quickly noted that a replacement was needed in the adjacent test chamber.

Finally upon reaching one of the larger set of doors on the left, the party stopped its procession and filed into the doorway.
The room was one of the several command modules that overlooked the core test chambers, those that were important to the cause. Such as x679.

Coincidentally, they were here because of that very chamber. Its last run was successful, although the subjects that produced those results had been reassigned to other, lesser known chambers. At least that was the official story for the rank and file.
Now those results were going to be put to test, as another batch of elite subjects had been passed through the rigorous entrance experiments and was prepared for their purpose.

The lead Judge removed the vial from within his cloak and inserted it into the receptor. Turning his gaze upward he noted the strict quality of the subjects as they adhered to every command issued as they prepared, so strikingly similar to their predecessors. Time would only tell which would be the betrayers this time. Until then, let us see what this new power is capable of.


Thus begins the Second Cyclic Experiment.

Any Band U-Pick


From the mod who brought you 00s Band Mafia and 90s Band Mafia comes
Any Band U-Pick Mafia
! How it works:

Once I get a full playerlist, I will randomize names into a draft order. You will all submit a band you would like to be. If there are any conflicting bands, the person highest on the draft order will get the band they chose and those lower will have to choose again. There are
no requirements
for the band you choose, as long as they
actually exist
. The band you choose will not effect your alignment (those will be randomized) but I get the Power Roles from the songs the band sings (Example: Know Your Enemy by Green Day was cop in 00s Band Mafia).

The game will be flavor heavy, but it is only for fun! Relevant lyrics to one of your band's songs will be posted along with flavor after your lynch or death, as seen in 00s Band Mafia. This game will
not have any alignment-altering roles
(you end with the same wincon you started with) and will
not contain Jesters
. There is no bastard modding in this game! To see the remaining number of pre /ins, simply check my signature. If there are some left, PM me to pre/ in.

Mod:
Slaxx
Backup Mod:
Faraday
Number of Players:
20
Requirements (1 of 3):

-My specific approval
-To have participated in either 90s Band Mafia or 00s Band Mafia
-To have 4 or more

games completed. Not taking any off site games. Hydras are forbidden.

Coming soon to a Large Theme Queue near you... brought to you by popular demand...

Mind Screw Mafia 5


"
Agent Orange here... infiltration complete... data retrieved... relaying now...
"

Ah, good. The missing files on the experimentation into alternate reality travel, including the map of radiant coordinates. Now we can input the correct value into the machine and proceed for the glory of the world Communist revolution...


DISCONTINUITY

Okay. Where the hell am I? And what the hell is going on this time around?

Let's take stock here. I was at the festival, trying not to think about some of the things that have been weighing on my head lately. I go to bed, preparing for the worst... and then I'm here, in this simulacrum of the world I knew. The clearest sign that something was off was the sky. It's colored with all the colors of the rainbow, and there are two suns in it. It's like something out of some science fiction thing - but either I'm hallucinating or it's all too real...

I wander out into the middle of the village. I don't see anyone I recognize in town, but I do see people. And... not people that act like people. Four or five, at least, and they look as confused as I am. Maybe it has something to do with the chalkboard that appeared over where one of the shops used to be - it has a list of names on it, which is in a foreign language but I can still read it, and beneath it there's a smudged section that says something about "with <smudged> alive it is <smudged> to lynch".

Maybe that has something to do with the noose I see hanging from a post near the store.

Wait, a noose? Don't tell me it's happening again after all...

Maybe the people over at the clinic can help...

Wait, what the hell happened to the clinic? There's a "Nyarlathotep's Used Tentacle and Tesseract Emporium" building standing where it should be... wait, tentacles - RUN!

Okay, I seem to have outraced the tentacles. I think I'd better look for help. I wonder if any of my friends are here.

My best friend doesn't seem to be home at the moment, so I'll check her old house... wait, what's that? A body? People gathered around and demanding vengeance and the extermination of traitors?

I guess it really is happening again after all. Even this insanity could not change Fate. I'll watch them, maybe even join in for a bit. After all, it's just to pass time until the end of the world.

Player Requirements:

- IC status (three months on site, five completed games, nobody that will scream for your head if I bring you into the game, not on my personal blacklist) or equivalent experience offsite (subject to moderator approval)
- At least one completed theme game with either unusual roles or unusual mechanics.
- I reserve the right to reject players for any reason if I feel that it is necessary.
- Special Requirement: I am reserving a number of slots in this game for players who have never played in a game in the Mind Screw series before. This number will not be less than 5 and will not be greater than 10.

Special Notes:

- This is a Mind Screw game, and therefore a Tarhalindur game. UncertainKitten is the backup mod. While I have targeted a level of complexity more reminiscent of the Mind Screw Mini Themes than the Mind Screw large themes... you have been warned.
- The only thing I can confirm about the rules is that <0>: The first rule is that I cannot tell you any of the other rules.
- There may be Cults and similar roles in the setup. However, I will guarantee that there is no role in the game that can force you to lose your original win condition.
- There may be Survivors in the game. However, there will be no role in the game for which survival to endgame is the only win condition.
- There may be Jesters in the game. However, there is no chance that a Jester lynch will result in a lone Jester victory, and there will be no role in the game for which getting lynched is the sole win condition.
- There is at least one role in the game that has the possibility of being nominated for a Scummy that you wouldn't think this game would make you eligible for.
- When you have innovation, gimmicks lose their appeal. This may or may not be important.

I had a feeling that something bad was going to happen at Harrowmog.

It wasn't a premonition, or at least I don't think it was; it was just this horrible feeling that settled in the pit of my belly as Mother Berae and I ambled on toward that great city, home to the god Aeltor himself. For several hours, I kept this ill feeling to myself; perhaps it was just one of those "changes" Mother Berae mentioned recently that happened to twelve year-old girls like me. Eventually, my inner pain must've betrayed itself in my countenance, for Mother Berae suddenly pulled me over to the side of the road, took me by the shoulders, and looked me in the eyes.

"Are you okay, Cassandra?" she inquired.

"I'm okay," I replied meekly, but apparently not enough to fool her aged cunning.

"What's wrong, child?" she wanted to know. "Please, be honest with me."

"Well, I don't know. I doubt it's that important..."

"Anything could be important."

I sighed. "I just have this bad feeling, that's all."

Mother Berae raised an eyebrow. "What about?"

"It was about Harrowmog--I just can't help but think something terrible is going to happen to that city. Soon."

"Like a rock nestled in the depth of your gut?"

I blinked. "Yes..."

Mother Berae closed her eyes and began to murmur words in that language she called "Old Tongue." She'd never taught it to me, but she seemed very fluent in it...and she most often used it when she felt disturbed or distressed.

"Mother Berae..." I brought my hands to her shoulders. "Is everything all right?"

She looked up at me and smiled; but I could see the tears hiding in her eyes. "It's all right, child. We need to keep moving, now."

We briefly embraced, and then we resumed walking down the hard, dusty dirt road. The heat of the late morning sun was starting to make its presence known, and my woolen tunic itched something terrible. Mother Berae and I rarely came down from our mountain abode, and when we did, it was only to get something from the little village at the mountain's foot. Now she was taking me to Harrowmog, capital city of Frekkasi and the largest port city in the known world, and she wouldn't even tell me the reason why we were going there.

That was why I didn't ask her to share her thoughts with me; she would give no answer until she decided it was time for me to know it. But just from the behavioral slips I'd noticed, it seemed reasonable to conclude that our business in Harrowmog would not be pleasant.

One help us,
I prayed silently.
One help us all...

Currently planning on a 16-player game, features of which include:
- The revamped return of the
Sleep Cycle
and the
Item and Inventory System
from the original
Descent into Chaos
.
- The use of a
Character Creation System
, which not only will allow players to shape what their game role is, but will also allow them to have a say in who their flavor character is.
- The use of a
Combat Mechanic
to replace the standard lynch.
- The use of a
Quad-Phase Game Day
, the total length of which is twelve real-life days.
- The inclusion of top-notch flavor (as always).


UPDATE: ON HOLD INDEFINITELY DUE TO REAL LIFE ISSUES

My target is late June to early July. Whether that happens or not remains to be seen...

Red vs. Blue Mafia is going to happen, but I wouldn't expect it before the start of DiC II.
