Wrath of the Egyptian Gods
KINGMAKER

Cool banner possibly to be put in later

Egypt, a land prospering in development. The Egyptians were forming an excellent society for themselves, creating amazing structures and providing a safe home for it's citizens. All of this was done in thanks to the Gods. The people of Egypt would praise the gods for giving such a wonderful land for all, but the deity behind almost all of it was Osiris, the god of resurrection. Osiris acted as a king among Egypt, ruling as an excellent leader. But soon enough... all of that will change horribly.




How to play Kingmaker

In it's most basic form, Mafia is a game of 2 teams: Uninformed Majority vs. Informed Minority, otherwise known as Town vs. Mafia. The Town doesn't know who each other are or what eachother's roles are; only their own. The Mafia are informed from the start of the game as to who they are and who their team mates are. Since this is kingmaker mafia, the King may reserve all power to lynch someone but that isn't a reason to completely trust the king, as they can be mafia as well.

This is kingmaker mafia. One player is crowned king by the kingmaker as day begins and has the sole vote on who will be lynched that day. Should the kingmaker die, a townie will take their place as the new kingmaker. You cannot reveal yourself as the kingmaker in the thread. The game ends when there are no more townies left or when mafia equals or outnumbers the town.

The Town's win condition is achieved through killing all the mafia through voting during the day. Since this is kingmaker, only the king is allowed to vote during the day on who should be lynched. There is only one catch: The town members only know their own role, not anyone elses. So, the town needs to determine who to trust and who not to trust by reading into a player's motives.

The Mafia's wincondition is to survive until they equal or outnumber the town. This is achieved by killing players at night. The Mafia's kill per night ratio is not using set KP this game. It is instead influenced by roles.

The other alignment, Third Party, can be a variety of roles with a unique win condition that needs to be met. Third party roles may or may not be present.

Mafia Format

PMs:
PMs and other out-of-thread communication are NOT allowed. If I am to find out anyone in the game is using out-of-thread communication, you will be modkilled and banned from mafia. So please just don't do it, nobody wants that.

This also includes speaking in the TBT Mafia Discord Channel, but I'll be a bit more mellow on this depending on what was said.

Activity:
You must contribute one substantial post at least once every full day/night cycle. This means that if you only make one post, it needs to be more substantial than simply saying "I agree" or "RIP". If you post multiple times, this rule may may be less strict. There may be exceptions to this if day/night phases progress rapidly at any stage in the game.

Civility:
While Mafia is prone to become heated, I ask that you do not personally attack other players. Arguing about the game is acceptable, but there is a fine line between being rude and doing things strategic to the game. If I find that you are being rude, you will receive one warning. After the warning, its an instantaneous mod-kill and ban from mafia.

Wills:
You may PM the host at night to create a will. This can contain any information you wish and will be revealed to all players should you die. Your will can only be changed once each night. Please title your PM to the host with the word "Will".

Replacements:
This game uses replacements. Replacements will be made up until the end of Day 3.

Time Cycle and Phases:
The game will generally follow a 48 hour day and 24 hour night cycle. If I am not online and available to post when a phase is set to end, the game will be paused until I can post. No actions will be accepted during this period. The final deadline will always be 8:00 PM CST. (7:00 PM EDT)

I will post time conversions depending on your timezone, if you ask.

Day:
During Day, the KING must choose someone to lynch. The day will end shortly after the king has voted. Night will then follow after the lynch post has been posted by me.

Night:
During Night, you can send in night actions. Night always ends after 24 hours, regardless of when all actions are submitted. This to prevent activity speculation as to who used what.​


General Mafia 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. Comparing role PM timings to try and work out roles.
5. Posting or sharing any PM you receive from a host without permission.
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. Breadcrumbing the specific phrasing of your role PM. Do not compare the phrasing in your role PM to prove your alignment. You can claim the abilities you have, but you can't use the specific phrasing of your role PM.
11. Posting a false 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.

YOU MAY ONLY COPY AND PASTE TEXT FOR USE AS EVIDENCE. POSTING SCREENSHOTS OR ANY OTHER NON-TEXT EVIDENCE IS CONSIDERED CHEATING. THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS EVIDENCE THAT IS PUBLICLY AVAILABLE FOR ALL PLAYERS TO CHECK (eg. post counts in a thread). IT IS BEST IF YOU CHECK WITH ME FIRST.

Cheating is not tolerated here as it ruins the game for everyone. The mods and admins here CAN take action and at worst is punishable by site ban.

Mod Font:
This is the mod color. It is reserved for the host. Please do not use it.

Question Font:
This is the question color. Use it to ask the host questions about the rules in public. You can also PM me.

Spam:
Strategic spam is acceptable, within reason.

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.

Wisdom of the Crowds
WoTC is in effect this game. If a player has over half the playerlist with WoTC votes on them, they will be excused from the game. Please send these votes in via PM to me.

Inappropriate posts:
Mafia games can get heated and emotional at times. Please keep it civil and remember that what happens in Mafia should stay in Mafia. Don't let things wash over to the rest of the forum, it's only a game.

Observers' Chat:
While spectators will be fueling 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.

Encryption:
Don't create messages that only one other person can understand. This counts as out of thread communication and will be counted as a modkill and ban from mafia.

Play to win.
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 a ban from mafia for however long Tom decides to ban you. 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 the host if you need to leave the game.

You have been warned.


Voting Rules

1. Voting is to be done in the voting thead.
2. Please vote in the following format: ##Vote: Username. Votes not done in the correct fashion may not be counted.
3. No conditional voting.
4. Only the king’s vote will be counted.
5. Unlike typical mafia, you cannot unvote. The king’s vote is absolute.
