You are cordially invited...
The letter, arriving on an otherwise normal day, was written with swirling script. The parchment looked old, surprisingly sturdy as you unrolled it. You're not sure who would have sent a scroll in this day and age, but the contents are...intriguing to say the least.
The author, a person who has signed themselves off as "The Host", had invited you to their manor. Something about it felt a bit...cliche, though you aren't one to turn away a night of fancy eating and dancing. Especially one that's free, and will last multiple days. The Host was a bit vague about how long you would be there, but you've not got anything better to do with your time and it's free! Although you'll be attending with a bunch of strangers, you still think it'll be a fun week.
What you didn't realize, was that this party...might be your last...
This is a game of Mafia!
Mafia, also known as Werewolf, is a social deduction game where an uninformed majority (the Town) seeks to locate and eliminate members of an informed minority (the Mafia). Mafia members know of each other’s identities and are able to communicate among themselves (hence the informed minority).
Games are generally separated into two phases: the Day Phase, where players discuss amongst each other and collectively decide on a player to eliminate; and the Night Phase, where the Mafia decide on a victim to kill.
The town aims to eliminate all mafia members to protect their peace before the mafia manages to outnumber them through their murderous ways.
This game is built for beginners, players who either have never played forum mafia or have not played it in a long time. However, since this is also (as far as im aware) one of the first of its particular brand of mafia games on CS, I am absolutely welcoming those who have been playing recently on other sites.
Let this game serve as a welcome to forum mafia to CS, and let's have a great time!
This thread will serve as both signups and gameplay.
