With the addition of the three new people that makes ten players! I think two mafia will be about right for that number, and four special town roles- how about doctor, detective, mayor, and escort? I'll randomly assign the roles and set up a separate thread for in-game discussion some time in the next twenty four hours. I won't start the first night phase until tomorrow. Is everyone alright with this?

Explanation of roles:
Mafioso = A member of the mafia who decides who to kill each night.
Doctor = An innocent who may protect a player from being killed every night.
Detective = An innocent who may learn the team of one player every night
Mayor = An innocent whose vote counts for three after revealing they are the mayor.
Escort= An innocent who may cancel the effect of another role's ability every night

Yoooo, I'm ready!

So if I was say - the escort, would I message you who I visited? Or would I post it here?
 
Cool cool!

I've never played this with Escort's before, so I'm not entirely sure how that works... like, can the Escort just say 'I choose to cancel the effects of the Detective' or do they just pick a random player and hope it's someone who had a role?

I'm assuming it's the latter, as if that player is still alive with only one mafia left, the first option would let them constantly block their attacks until whenever.

Yeah, that would make sense...

Message me, the night actions are supposed to be private. I'll message each person with a night action first to remind them. :)

It's as Intrusive Pen said, you 'randomly' pick a player- although as the game goes on you'll probably start to block people you're suspicious of. Eg. If you think X is the last mafia then you would likely block X.

Just generating the roles now!

Hey, still here! This sounds great ^.^
 
Coolio Coolio.

I wish the best of luck to you all.

Excited for this. >W<
 
PLEASE DO NOT POST WHAT ROLE I PM YOU! KEEP IT A SECRET!

During the day time discussion you may claim that you are a certain role- however, you are also allowed to lie, and I cannot confirm any roles. Please do not reveal your roles here so you do not spoil anything. The only exception to this is the mafia, who know who the other mafia member is (there are only 2 mafia for this game).

Actually, in regards to that, there is a minor detail I forgot. When someone is lynched (killed in the day phase voting) it is revealed whether they are town or mafia. Their specific role (eg. Doctor) is NOT revealed. Turns out I DID remember to say that, I just forgot because I'm an idiot. -.-

A second caveat- there is one previously mentioned role who CAN be officially confirmed by me if they reveal themselves in the day phase so you know they are not lying. That role is the mayor. This is because revealing is part of the mayor's role mechanic- their vote only counts for three after they have revealed.

I don't know how this will work concerning difference in time zones, though.

What might be day in-game can just as easily be night for me or anyone else, and we miss chances at doing anything.

How does that work? Do nights and days span entire 24-hour increments? Or is there another system?
 
I have created a separate thread for Day Phase discussion, which may be found here. I will tag everyone in it once the first day phase begins. How is everyone with the first day phase beginning on Wednesday at 7:00pm (GMT)? That should give everyone with a night action two days to PM me who they would like to use their night action on, if at all. I'll extend this by a day or so if necessary, since this is the first night phase and people may want some clarifications first, but for now assume the first day phase will begin at that time.

REMINDER OF HOW THE DAY PHASE WORKS (with some minor new details, such as what to do in case of a tied vote):
The day phase will begin with me announcing who has died during the night (if anyone) then you'll have 72 hours to discuss who you believe the mafia could be and nominate any player to be lynched. For now I won't restrict how many people you can nominate a day, but I will in the future if it starts getting excessive (eg. Someone nominates all other players). After that I will announce the voting phase begins, in which you have 36 hours to publicly cast one vote for which nominated player you would like to lynch. After that period I will announce who has the most votes, and that player shall be lynched with their alignment (innocent or mafia) revealed. In case of a tie I will wait to see if anyone is willing to change their vote- if not I will randomly generate which of the players will be lynched. Then the next night phase shall begin.

So... everyone should have enough time to say stuff, and I can extend each part upon request.

So then I'm assuming the night phase is starting now?
 
I'm waiting for one more person with a night action to respond. I lied, it's two people. I'll give them another couple of days to respond, and if they don't respond by then they'll have to forgo their night action for night one.
 
I will be starting the first day phase in a few hours. If those with a night ability who haven't told me who they want to use it on before that then they simply will not use their ability night one. I've sent them reminders, so I hope this doesn't seem unfair.

EDIT: The day phase had begun, so players with night roles may no longer use their night abilities (until night 2, of course).
