Chatmafia Tournament: A Gunfight of Nations - [Prizes!]

[Submachine]

Chatmafia Tournament - October 8th - A Gunfight of NationsWho's gonna pull the trigger first?

Spoiler for Disclaimer:

This tournament would not interfere with the ongoing numbered mafias, because it would be over in a day (or two). This is not part of the official numbered mafias, but it allows this to be even better! I had some spare codes lying around from PvP Tournaments [even a nymph code!], so I decided to give it to the winner along with some minor electrum codes.

1. When?
The pre-planned time for this tournament would be at 19 GMT on Saturday, but to find the best time for the majority, I will put up a poll soon and change the tourney time according to that poll when it's over.

2. Signups + Where?
You don't need to sign up, but if you're interested, it's advised to at least post here once so that you will be notified if there is a time change later on. The entire game will be played within Blab Chat's Tournament Room.
Note: The game can only start if we have 7-11 players. If we have more than 11, they are not eliminated, but they need to either wait until the others are finished or (if we have enough players for a second game) participate in a less high-tech environment (Titanpad + forum PMs, or Discord chat) parallel to the others. However, the tournament is cancelled under 7 players.

3. How to play?
The players will be separated into 3-4 teams. These teams are called 'factions'. In the beginning, you will be secretly notified about your faction and abilities [more about abilities in Roles]. The goal of the game is to slay everyone from other teams and have at least 1 survivor from your team. To kill people, there are 3 methods: voting, shooting and nightkilling [more about killing methods in Roles]. You don't always know who your teammates are, but you can spark conversations during specific phases to learn more about the others.

3.1 Phases and Voting
The game has a Night Phase and a Day Phase. During the Night Phase, players are not allowed to talk to each other [Not even privately!], but they can use their roles' abilities, including the Nightkill. During the Day Phase, people can shoot [more about shooting later], talk to and/or vote each other for the noose. If more than half of the players vote on the same player, Judgement Phase starts, where players decide whether the voted player is Guilty or Innocent (abstaining is an option too). If there are more Guilty than Innocent votes, the voted player dies and the day phase continues.
Note: Only ONE player can be killed by voting during a single Day Phase. However, if a Judgement Phase ended without death, a new one can be started until the Day Phase is over.

3.2 Shooting and Guns
EVERY PLAYER has a gun, which allows them to shoot anyone during the Day Phase. Successfully shooting a player results in INSTANT KILL. These guns normally have 1 bullet each. Guns cannot be used during the Judgement Phase or the Night Phase. Shooting a person can fail, but it will not be specified why (shooting will not fail without a reason, more about this in Roles). Failed gunshots do not refund the wasted bullet.

4. Factions and Roles
There are 4 factions in the game: Town(Civilians), Mafia(Criminals), Americans, Russians.

Each faction has their special roles:

• Town (Civ):
  
  • Doctor: Target player cannot be nightkilled. (ER)
  • Cop: Learn if target player is Criminal or not. Does not make difference between Town, American and Russian. (ER)
  • Escort: Target player cannot use his ability tonight. (ER)
• Criminal (Mafia): One Criminal can kill target player each night. This criminal must be specified to the host each night. (ER)
  [Criminals know each other.]
  
• American:
  
  • Obama: Take away target player's gun permanently. You can still only shoot once. (ER)
  • Rambo: You can shoot twice from the same gun, but not on the same day. (passive)
    [Rambo knows who Obama is, but he's only allowed to reveal himself to Obama publicly!]
  • Snowden: Change sides to the Russians. (1U) Not compulsory.
• Russian:
  
  • Putin: Your voting power is 2. (passive)
  • Boris: You cannot be shot by guns. (passive)

5. Game Setup

- 7 players: 3 Town, 2 Mafia, Obama, Rambo.
- 8 players: 3 Town, 2 Mafia, Obama, Rambo, Boris.
- 9 players: 3 Town, 2 Mafia, Obama, Rambo, 2 Russians.
- 10 players: 3 Town, 2 Mafia, 3 Americans, 2 Russians.
- 11 players: 3 Town, 3 Mafia, 3 Americans, 2 Russians.

6. RULES

• If a player dies, that player must leave the Tournament Room and cannot return until the game in question ends. Before that happens and after the player's death, the dead player cannot reveal anything relevant that he didn't reveal before (a quick reminder is okay, but must be a single post).
• Players are not allowed to talk privately during the Night Phases. They can only communicate with the host during that time.
• Rambo is not allowed to reveal himself to Obama, unless it is done publicly in the Tournament Room.
• You must not do anything that can be considered gamethrowing or harmful to your teammates.
• Keep it civil. Don't offend or trigger anyone.
• If you are asked to leave the room by the host, do so. It can happen if you're not playing, caught breaking a serious rule or considered dead.
• Changes to the game can be made before a new game starts. These can apply to roles, rules, setup, or anything.

7. Prizes and Winners
Do you like Nymphs and Ultra Rare cards in Elements? Well you can win one here! I happen to have a spare one of those from the 'Children of the Oracle' tournament, which I'm willing to give out to the winner. For this however, a player needs to win 2 games, and NOT in a row!(Note: If the game was won by team abuse, breaking rules or other questionable means, prizes may not be given out to the winner, so play it fair.)

Event starts in: DAFUQ IT ALREADY STARTED?!?! Unless there is a change.

Change Log:
- nothing here yet.

Sub is allowed to host this because it is completely separate from the Forum Games section.

I should be able to make this.

If hosting is an issue or a different host would help the game be more popular, I'd be okay with being a co-host next to someone else. If it's not a problem, I'm okay hosting alone too. Works either way for me.

If everyone were to shoot the player 1 spot lower than them in the chat's online list, could mafia win? Only way I can think of is if 2 mafia players are right next to each other on the list.

That might not work based on some roles and player motivations. It might favor the Russians though.

[Demagog]

Oh, so only 1 of the 4 factions can win? I thought it was mafia vs everyone.

[Submachine]

Yes, from the 4 factions, only one can win. This is one of the big differences compared to regular mafia, along with the addition of guns.

Brief Advertising.

The winner receives a Nymph/Mark code.

Electrum codes are available too, though not much.

You can pay attention to sky's mafia now, the mafia drama already died out.

My understanding was that this got cancelled.

Will it be rescheduled for another weekend? just curious as it looks entertaining, and I am still interested in playing in it if possible.

[Submachine]

It got cancelled due to lack of players. To reschedule, I'd first need to see how many people are interested, because we cannot start it under 7 people. Then I'd be able to look for a more suitable time, if that was the problem.
