If you do discord it’s impossible to use it for meta in the future, trying to scroll through old discord message is a pain.
 
is it possible to copy paste the discord messages and put it into a PDF? discord is easier for the scum team tbh

I’d be unopposed to having a quicktopic for group discussion and the mafia members are free to DM on discord if they need to talk instantly
 
u missed me :mad:

i'm in for that start date!!
oops i thought you meant earlier u couldnt join lol, added.

And no I don't see any option to download discord logs easily so I think I will make scum talk in QT and DM me actions if needed - but its no fun at all to read a mafia discord, I agree.

There's a lot of people new to TBT/forum mafia. Hello!!!! I'm super excited to be playing with you all soon. Mafia is super fun, but it is an acquired taste! Some very important things to remember are that it's a time commitment and things can get tense! Here's an introduction written by KarlaKGB:

Welcome to TBT Mafia. Mafia is a game of the informed minority versus the uninformed majority. To elaborate, the game is divided into two teams: the Town and the Mafia. Mafia know who each other are, and can coordinate their actions privately. Town on the other hand don't know anything other than their own role. To compensate, there are many more Townies than Mafia.

At the beginning of the game, you are PM'd your role. The game is divided into repeating phases of Day and Night. Day will generally last 48 hours and revolve around voting for a player to be lynched. Each player (including Mafia) get one vote, and players must figure out who the Mafia are, and convince others that they are correct. At the end of the day, the person with the most votes is lynched, and their alignment and role are revealed.

Night is typically 24 hours long and is reserved for Mafia night kills and players with special abilities. Usually, players discuss the results of the lynch at night, and make plans for the next day. When night ends, everyone will be informed of who died during the night. The new day will begin, and discussions for the lynch begin anew.

Mafia is a game of logic, intuition, persuasiveness, reading ability, emotion, and will. In short, its a thinking man's game. There are many different ways to approach the game and every game is a very different experience. In addition, Mafia is not for the faint-hearted or overly emotional. While not occurring every game, sometimes people can get into very heated arguments with one another. People can get very emotional playing Mafia, as it is a high-intensity endeavour. That being said, playing Mafia is an excellent to develop thick skin, improve your patience, and make yourself a stronger person mentally.

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. In addition, Mafia is not for the faint-hearted or overly emotional. While not occurring every game, sometimes people can get into very heated arguments with one another. People can get very emotional playing Mafia, as it is a high-intensity endeavor. That being said, playing Mafia is an excellent way to develop thick skin, improve your patience, and make yourself a stronger person mentally.

Mafia can be super rewarding and you will meet players in ways you never would on the regular forums. If you feel nervous or overwhelmed, that's okay! Feel free to reach out to the host for any of your questions/fears.

I have some useful guides if you ever get lost on what to do:

Here's some of the many words used in mafia (most of these you won't need to memorize, but just pull it up when someone says something you don't know)

A list of a bunch of roles used in mafia. This game is semi-open so the ones listed in the OP are the only ones you need to care about. Most of the roles here are only used in unconventional setups

Here's how to have productive conversation as town

Here's some tips for playing mafia (Your experienced teammates can also help guide you)

This is a lot to take in, but you can always read/learn as you go along! Remember that you and your voice are just as important than anyone else. All slots are equal in importance. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me before we get our roles, or ask the host once the game starts!
