Sunless Sea Mafia
You are all aboard a ship out zee, it’s been months since the crew has seen land, and many are restless. One night, many are growing weary of the constant zee and taste of salt. One suggests a mutiny amid the grumble and all fall silent. After a moment, he chuckles softly and claims it’s a foolhardy thought. An hour later the captain is found dead on the deck. A note is pegged to the message board “The Silent Mutineers Call”. The coal is missing, likely thrown out to zee, and the crew is fearful. Either the mutineers will be ousted, or they will kill their way into control of the ship. Only time will tell.
General Rules
1. Do not post, chat, OR PM ANY revealing information if you have been killed/removed from this mafia. You are allowed one death post that contains no information or commentary about the players.
2. You are not allowed to edit or remove your post. Instead, EBWOP will take effect. This means you must post again with the correct fixes.
3. Directly quoting or providing proof in any way of any PM sent by the host will result in an instant modkill and referral to the FGO.
4. You are not allowed to directly quote any PM sent by another player, unless you are quoting it to a fellow mafia member confirmed by the host.
5. You are not allowed to request to be modkilled in the thread. If you PM the host requesting to be modkilled, the host must find a substitute or modkill you at the end of the phase.
6. All players' actions should be primarily motivated by winning the game. Throwing the game or outing your teammates for no strategic value is not allowed.
7. The host has the final say in any dispute. Do not impersonate the host.
8. Any flaming/trolling will not be tolerated.
9. Players' actions should be motivated by this game's events solely. You may look at past mafias to determine behaviors for better reads, but keep personal affairs out of the game.
10. Anything said within the context of the game, including promises, bets, etc, stays within the game. Players can lie, deceive, and manipulate, (but not cheat) in any way they like. Slander within the context of the game is usually not meant as a personal offense.
