TBT Cell Mini Mafia
Introduction:
This is an experimental setup, and may not be balanced!
Welcome to Cell Mafia. Why it has this name will be evident very soon.
First, the tl;dr explanation:
10 Townies, 5 Mafia, divided into 5 groups.
Only day, no nights.
Day 1: Players elect a "Mayor" who chooses the order of the groups.
Days 2-6: Groups are up for lynch, one at a time in the order chosen. Everyone may vote. Group is taken out of the game after the lynch.
Therefore, FIVE LYLOS. First team to three wins.

Days 2-6: Groups are up for lynch, one at a time in the order chosen. Everyone may vote. Group is taken out of the game after the lynch.
Therefore, FIVE LYLOS. First team to three wins.
Longer explanation:
There are 10 Townies and 5 Mafia players altogether. They are divided up into 5 groups, each group consisting of two Townies and a Mafioso. On day one, players will elect a Mayor who will choose the order the groups will be put up for lynch in. After this, that player will return to being a regular Townie (or Scummie).
Each day thereafter, the members of a group will be put up for lynch. Only the three people in that group can be voted for. All remaining players in the game may vote. After the lynch, the dead player will be flipped, and all three members of the group will be removed from the game.
The game ends when one team has successfully lynched three players from the other team. Otherwise, the game behaves as normal. Mafia know who each other are and have access to a QT. All players can talk in the thread.
For example:
On day one, the Mayor chooses the order of Group B -> Group D -> Group A -> Group E -> Group C.
Day 2, the members of group B are up for lynch. All 15 players vote and player B1 is lynched and flips green. Mafia team gets a point, and all three members of group B are removed from the game.
Day 3, the members of group D are up for lynch. All remaining 12 players vote and player D3 is lynched, flipping red. Townie team gets a point, and all three members of group D are removed.
etc...until one team reaches three points.
Each day thereafter, the members of a group will be put up for lynch. Only the three people in that group can be voted for. All remaining players in the game may vote. After the lynch, the dead player will be flipped, and all three members of the group will be removed from the game.

etc...until one team reaches three points.
Be warned - Mafia requires a time commitment. This generally depends on the player, but at minimum 30 minutes a day of solid effort is required. As part of the time commitment, Mafia requires a great deal of reading. Most people are actually quite poor at reading comprehension and playing Mafia is a great way to improve your reading ability, as well as your writing and ability to think and argue logically.

Rules:
Cheating:
Cheating includes (but is not limited to):
1. Posting after death. You may have one polite goodbye post, but it may not contain any potentially game-changing information.
2. Ruining the game by doing something like handing out your mafia's member list to the town.
3. Logging on to someone else's account to get their role or looking over someone's shoulder to get their role.
4. Posting screenshots of your inbox.
5. Posting or sharing any PM you receive from a host.
6. Getting yourself modkilled to help your team. Your non-majority-decided death may not be used as a bargaining chip.
7. Signing up more than once using smurf accounts.
8. Offering favours/items/bells outside of the game for a ingame information.
9. Sharing accounts with other players.
10. Posting a false role PM phrased as if you received it from the host. You can still fake roleclaim, but you cannot make it look like you are posting a PM you received from the host.
!!! ANYONE CAUGHT SHARING SCREENSHOTS FROM OBSERVER, PM, SCUM CHAT, ANYTHING WILL BE BANNED!!!
Cheating is not tolerated here as it ruins the game for everyone. The mods and admins here CAN take action.
Wisdom of the Crowds
Wisdom of the Crowds is in effect. If you do not want to play with another player, PM me with their name. If I get enough PMs about a person, they will be excluded.
Replacements
This game uses replacements. Replacements will be made in the game until the end of Day 2.
Time Cycle:
Each day will last for 24 hours. In case I am not able to post around deadline, any votes after the deadline will not count and the game will be put on halt until the resolution post is up. The deadline will normally be 11PM GMT.
Posting:
Mod Font:This is the mod colour. It is reserved for the host. Please do not use it.
Question Font:
This is the question colour. Use it to ask the host questions about the rules in public. You can also PM me.
Activity:
You must post in this thread at least once per day and vote every day while you are in the game. As I cannot modkill without ruining the game setup, I will ban your ass and ensure every host after me bans your ass if you are inactive or break the rules.
Spam:
Spam is not tolerated, nor is any off-topic material. Mafia is not a ****ing roleplay. This also means you should condense your posts when possible. 15 one-liners in 30 minutes is unacceptable.
Editing:
Editing is not allowed for any reason. Editing will result in a warning. After that, you will be modkilled. While I ask for everybody to post as concisely as possible, post again if you have to edit anything. The board software automatically merges the posts anyway.
Observers' Chat:
While spectators will be fuelling speculation, and dead players will be keen to give valuable "insight" into the game, please refrain from revealing game-changing information (eg. the identities of your fellow Mafia). Speculate, theorise and express bewilderment at dumb plays all you want, but remember that the chat is not leakproof and game-ruining information CAN get out.
Inappropriate posts:
Mafia games can get heated and emotional. Please keep it civil and remember that what happens in Mafia stays in Mafia. Don't let things spill over to the rest of the forum, it's just a game. If you are unhappy with a player's posts, PM me first. Only if you are dissatisfied with the outcome should you involve the TBT staff.
Play to win.
That said, you should try your best to help your team win while you are alive and in the game. Clearly not playing towards your win objective will be grounds for a modkill and ban. However, this does not mean that you should try to win by being a jerk to the other players so they all want to quit playing.
This also means that you cannot leave the game without a good reason. These situations will be dealt with on a case by case basis. PM your host if you need to leave the game.
You have been warned.
Banlist:
This game uses the officially enforced banlist. If you are modkilled for any reason, you will be subject to a minimum three game ban.
Voting rules:
1. This game will use Plurality Lynch. This means the player with the most votes by the deadline will be lynched. In the case of a tie, whoever received the most votes first will be lynched.
2. You must vote to lynch a player.
3. Voting is done in a separate thread, located here. You may announce and discuss your votes in this main thread, but only votes in the Voting thread will be counted. Do not PM me your vote.
4. Please vote in the following format: ##Vote: Username. Votes not done in the correct fashion may not be counted. I will update vote counts whenever I get the chance.
5. If you want to change your vote, first type ##Unvote followed by your new vote ##Vote: Username. You can change your vote at any time and as much as you like (within reason) up until a majority is reached.
6. No conditional voting.
7. You may vote for yourself. You may not vote for anyone dead or outside the game.
Curious bystanders can PM me if they want the link to the observers' quicktopic.
