“What do you mean this is no longer a vanilla game?”
Rules
Follow the Official Forum Mafia and Fortress of Lies Rules, found below. Please make sure you have enough time for this game before you sign up.
Audience Participation
While signups are underway, any individual may privately message the hosts to suggest a theme for the game. During the drafting phase (Night 0), anyone may vote which theme they would like to see in the game. In the case of a tie, the hosts will decide the flavor.
Gameplay
- Days will be 48 hours long, and night will be 24 hours long. At any time, phase lengths may be changed with unanimous approval. N0 will be 48 hours long to facilitate drafting.
- The informed minority faction will get an assigned, optional factional kill. A member of the informed minority may not carry out the night kill if they are performing another night action. The informed minority faction may speak in a private discord server as soon as the drafting phase (described below) is over.
- Both majority and plurality are in effect.
- Each player is required to post at least 10 times during the day phase. If a player does not meet this requirement, or does not act during the night when they can without communication, they will be privately issued a prod. Any player that receives 2 prods will be force replaced.
- The host always reserves the right to slightly modify the drafting order to ensure player enjoyment. However, due to the nature of the draft, the hosts cannot ensure a perfectly balanced game.
What setup are we playing?
Once a player joins, they will be asked to provide two pieces of information:
- A role they would like to see in the game, from The List of FoL Vanilla Roles
- A role they would not like to see in the game, from the same list.
The role list will consist of all the roles that players have requested, minus any that players did not want to see in the game or any duplicate role submissions. The hosts will then attempt to balance the game by applying modifiers such as 1-shot or odd/even-night to some roles, but will not guarantee a fully balanced game nor a completely non-bastard game. Any empty spots will be filled by a vanilla role. This role list will not be revealed, making this a closed rolemadness game.
The town composition will be as follows:
13 x Uninformed Majority
The Uninformed Majority wins when they eliminate the Informed Minority, including the Uninformed Traitor.
3 x Informed Minority
The Informed Minority wins when the number of Informed Minority, including the Uninformed Traitor, is equal to or greater than the number of Uninformed Majority.
1 x Uninformed Traitor
The Uninformed Traitor is aligned with the Informed Minority, but will not be part of the Informed Minority group chat at the beginning of the game. They will only join the Informed Minority group chat if the Informed Minority can successfully guess their identity.
The Informed Minority will get one guess (as a group) each night. If they guess correctly, the Uninformed Traitor will join their chat.
The Uninformed Traitor will automatically take over the Informed Minority nightkill if all other Informed Minority are killed, before they are found by the Informed Minority; however, they will not be added to the Informed Minority group chat.
The game will begin TBD.
