Can't believe town still won after a mime suicide and banning the clowp every night.

Greyparrot - town

ILikePie5 - regular mime

ILikePie5 (town) - Grand theft - grand theft is defined in California as stealing goods worth more than $950. There's a game called Grand Theft Auto where you steal cars. You are the 3x rolestealer - on 3 nights you may visit a person; if they have a role, both active and passive roles, they are informed that their role is stolen. After you steal their role you get to use it for that night only. When you try to use the role it may possibly work differently or fail depending on if there are certain prerequisites to the role. The next night their role is returned to them. X-shots are spent even if your action fails.

That1User (town) - Medical malpractice - sometimes you provide shitty or negligent healthcare. Sometimes you keep your patients sick so you can make more money off of them. You are the delayed affect doctor - each night you may doc someone; if they were targeted for the kill, they will instead die 2 nights later; keep doc'ing them to delay their death. If you die then your patient will survive.

The theme is crimes. A character is a crime in at least some jurisdictions in the USA. I don't give fake claims to the mafia directly, however they may receive hints and help with fake claims, especially if the theme is a subject they're not familiar with.

Pie needs to get those silly mafia definitions and conventions out of his head before he gets mad again. The MafiaScum wiki is IMO the most authoritative database on definitions related to forum mafia on the internet. My modding practices come from there. Any game where a majority of the players have a role is by definition rolemad. This game had only 2 vanillas, there's no way this game can be defined as not rolemad. The wiki also guides that players are not informed of being roleblocked unless they would otherwise get a result. No one in this game had the same 2 actions, but that doesn't mean they can't. Pie was right in the end that one of the claimed JOATs was scum, but I have made a game with 2 JOATs for a live mafia game before. There's no literature out there, certainly not on MafiaScum, that no 2 town roles can be the same.

Lunatic was given a warning for excessive insults, and I stand by that. First of all, it's not even censorship, I didn't even remove the comment. Nobody likes an asshole in game, you will be warned and kicked if you engage in actions that turn other players off. Second, Lunatic is being a massive hypocrite for complaining about "censorship." In his discord server he asked people to not talk about politics so we could keep mafia players, which caused YYW to leave on at least 1 occasion. It is way more justifiable to warn players for insulting each other than to ban political talk when we're not even playing the game. And he wants to talk about censorship with me? I wouldn't have modkilled him either, but Lunatic decided to throw a tantrum by threatening to break the rules out of spite (being a hypocrite again), and talking about the game in RM's thread; outside game talk is a big no-no, I would have modkilled him for that alone. On top of that he failed to submit a night action, which made him not fulfill the activity requirement. He was modkilled for these 4 reasons combined.

The neighborhood chat was very productive. BearMan targetted the right players.

IDK what Supa was doing DP3, he could have just hammered himself, or asked intel or skittle to hammer him, and we  would have went into DP4 4 town vs 2 scum. There was a solid chance Speed would have been lynched instead of intel or skittle -- and it did turn out to be the case that Speed was lynched before skittle was. So in a way Supa threw the game for scum. Supa did the right thing by gambitting repeatedly, which paid off and confused town. But he choked at the end there.

Speedrace (town): The Internet - the internet is the foundation of the Information Age. This significance of the internet in the 21st century cannot be understated - You are the enabler - you being alive enables a number of roles; once you die, the players with those roles will be vanillarized. The internet is by its nature distributed and thus immune to a single point of failure; for this reason you are 1x BP.

ILikePie5 (town): Photolithography - photolithography is the process of etching patterns onto a substrate by shining light at it. Modern processors are made with this process. The most advanced processors have billions of transistors and minimum feature sizes as small as 5nm. Photolithography is the most advanced human technology ever developed; and it's still advancing. Moore's Law is an observational law about photolithography advancement: roughly every 2 years, the number of transistors in a given area doubles - because of Moore's Law, you are the even phase motivator - on even days, you may target someone, and they may use their role at night twice, if they have a role. This won't double the NK.

Intelligence_06 (mafia): Deepfake - the technology to make something appear as anything you want is near -- although we can still tell the difference between real and fake with our eyes, deepfaking is getting better every day - you are the deepfaker - each night, you may make any player appear as anything you want, including their role, affiliation, and actions; your target is not informed and their actual actions are not disrupted. This counts as a visit.

SupaDudz (mafia): Planned obsolesce - many major companies design their products to fail right after the warranty expires so they can force you to buy a new one. Ironically improvements in materials technology as enabled manufacturers to make their products worse - you are suicide scum: on NP3, you automatically die. Each time you are protected, you live one additional NP.

warren42 (replacing That1User) (town): Samsung smart fridge - a fridge with "smart" capabilities. In reality, most "smart" devices these days are just useless gimmicks that are unreliable, hard to use, and open up your device to vulnerabilities - you are vanilla townie.

Lunatic: The Cloud - the cloud is essentially someone else's computer that you access over the internet. Amazon's AWS is by far the world's biggest cloud provider. Advantages of the cloud include flexibility and easy load balancing - therefore you are the JOAT: you have 1x tracker, 1x doc, 1x bodyguard.

Danielle (town): Bing - Everyone uses google, but Microsoft made this piece of shit search engine known as Bing. You are the shitty rolecop - you may rolecop someone, but your results may not be accurate or useful.

The theme is technology. A character can be a technological innovation, device, or concept. I don't give fake claims to the mafia directly, however they may receive hints and help with fake claims, especially if the theme is a subject they're not familiar with.

Heads up (NP5): https://www.debateart.com/forum/topics/4561-poker-mafia-heads-up

Phase 1's cards were crazy, and it was completely by chance. It resulted in 4 cops for town. Mafia would have used their cheat ability to come up with up to 3 lawyers if they wanted to, they they went for the yolo play of getting that 5 of a kind for the additional kill. So croc ended up with the only lawyer and lawyered himself, which was unlucky because he was the only one to not get copped.

RM did very well this game in terms of reads. His extensive poker knowledge also helped town. On DP1 he called out all 3 scum in a single post. He was also the only one to seriously consider that croc may have killed oro as a gambit. I don't think he was more anti-town than anyone else in the game, which breaks from his usual meta. At the end of the day RM was the most correct about who was scum out of all the living town players.

warren42 - Affiliation: town

Discipulus_Didicit - Affiliation: town

Ragnar[2] (replacing ILikePie5) - Grumpy Cat - A snowshoe cat with an expression showing incredible disdain - You are vanilla townie.Lunatic - Press F to pay respects - A bizarre and tasteless quicktime event in a 2014 Call of Duty game that turned into one of the biggest memes of the 2010’s. Memers from around the world will throw up a chain of ‘F’s in chat when something bad happens - You are the graveyard visitor: each night you may visit a player in the graveyard and pay respects to them. (flavor: you receive the results your target would have received on the night they died)
oromagi - Harambe - Dicks out for harambe! You were murdered in cold blood when you tried to protect a child from it’s negligent parent - You are a beloved bodyguard: each night, you may protect another player, if they are targeted for death, you die in their place. When you die in any way, your killer or hammerer becomes hated, that is they take 1 less vote than normal to be lynched.
WaterPhoenix - Supa Hot Fire - “I’m about to end this man’s whole career. Boom, bam, bop Bada-bop-boom, pow.” You have won 398 246 303 rap battles in your career. You are not a rapper though - You are the gladiator: once per game, at any point with more than 24 hours left in the day phase, you may declare a gladiator challenge against any other player; you do this by posting “I challenge ____ to a rap battle” in BOLD in the DP. Votes will be reset, you and your challenge will automatically vote each other, and only you and that player may be voted to be lynched for the rest of the day; if the challenge ends without a majority vote, plurality voting will be in effect, with ties resolving against your opponent.
warren42 - Galaxy brain - a meme where a described scenario becomes increasingly ludicrous while a picture of a brain becomes increasingly advanced. You are able to make amazing deductions with your galaxy-sized brain - You are cop (flavor: because the meme is most often used in an ironic way, you are insane)
SupaDudz - Bee movie memes - A 2007 movie starring Jerry Seinfeld with a ridiculous script packed full of “bee” puns. You didn’t become a prominent shitposting meme until the 2010’s, exemplified by the video “The bee movie but every time they say bee it gets faster.” - You are honey townie. (same as vanilla)
Ragnar - Black guy pointing at head - Also known as “roll safe,” you mock decisions that appear good if you don’t think about it. Can’t lose if you don’t play the game, right?  - You are the commuter: each night you exit the game such that anyone who tries to target you simply can’t. You are the quitter: at any time, you may quit the game by posting “I can’t lose if I don’t play the game” in BOLD in the DP; quitting the game at day does not end the day. Also you are excused to go inactive the entire game without being replaced or modkilled.
Greyparrot - Area 51 raid - a social phenomenon where millions of people sign up to raid Area 51 and bust out some aliens. Of the 50 people who actually showed up, one absolute legend actually Naruto ran on camera - You are mafia ninja: using the power of anime you can Naruto run past any enemy defenses without being observed. If you visit an alien you recruit them to the mafia PM. 
Speedrace (replacing Lucky) - Ancient aliens guy - Is such a thing even possible? YES IT IS. You’re always on the lookout for aliens who have visited this planet - You are the mafia lookout: each night you may visit someone and see who visited them. (flavor: if anyone visits your target, you see “aliens”.)Singularity - Ayy LMAO - You’re a high alien who’s laughing his ass out about something or other. Your allies are trying to bust you out of Area 51. You are the jailed mafia. Anyone not mafia who visits you is rolestopped. You do not start with the mafia PM, and while you are not in the mafia PM you may not perform the night kill; also while not recruited, you automatically lose if you’re the last mafia alive. If you are visited by the mafia you may join their PM. After you join the mafia PM you are no longer jailed, you become a normally functional mafia member and you may receive a role. (If recruited will bring a UFO to the mafia. You may use the UFO to commit strongman-janitor abductions in place of the NK)

The thematic split is alien-related memes vs other memes.

Activity was bad.

oromagi - Harambe - Dicks out for harambe! You were murdered in cold blood when you tried to protect a child from it’s negligent parent - You are a beloved bodyguard: each night, you may protect another player, if they are targeted for death, you die in their place. When you die in any way, your killer or hammerer becomes hated, that is they take 1 less vote than normal to be lynched.

Ragnar - Black guy pointing at head - Also known as “roll safe,” you mock decisions that appear good if you don’t think about it. Can’t lose if you don’t play the game, right?  - You are the commuter: each night you exit the game such that anyone who tries to target you simply can’t.

warren42 - Galaxy brain - a meme where a described scenario becomes increasingly ludicrous while a picture of a brain becomes increasingly advanced. You are able to make amazing deductions with your galaxy-sized brain - You are cop. (reason for modkill: inactivity)

Setup can be seen in the sign-ups thread: https://www.debateart.com/forum/topics/3925/memes-of-the-2010s-mafia-sign-ups

• designed for 9-15 players
  
• typical DDO-style mafia
  
• The game may have hidden flavors - you should not come into the game expecting roles to do exactly as they say in the PM, or assume night action mechanics to work in a traditional manner. Flavors are not necessarily revealed upon death
  
• This game has been thought-out and balanced beforehand
  
• This game will actually start when there's enough players
  

All the characters in the game are memes from the 2010’s. Note that memes don’t necessarily have to have originated in the 2010’s, they just have to have been prolific in the 2010’s. Memes are taken from my mind and various meme boards and meme aggregators. Then the memes are validated on KnowYourMeme.com. 

There is a thematic split.

First of all, I gave mafia the town PM structure. I wrote this first thing in the mafia discord:

Town was just lucky mafia logged in late or they would have been duped.

Good job Ragnar on figuring out the self-lynch method, that was one of the strats opened up by the setup.

If oro came up and voted drafter, he would have had a chance of winning if he confirmed town that the PM structure analysis was bullshit (which it was)

Someone brought up that the sensor is usually OP. But in this case it's mitigated by the fact that 1) scum knew there is a sensor, and 2) the low number of players limit the usefulness of the sensor. The mafia bomb makes up for the lack of a night kill.

The chance of mafia winning by 2 immediate mislynches was 1/3, plus the chance they would have won if one of them died makes this a balanced game.

I also think this mechanic encourages behavioural analysis, because it forces scum to vote certain wagons, which means wagons are analysis gold.

This is a quickfire style mafia game with special mechanics.

Game starts 2/17 at the earliest.

This is a relatively recent paper (March 18, 2019). I wonder how this compares against good players here.

This is a test post. Virt I wish u didnt lock all those x-post wins posts cause then I wouldn't have to make a whole new test post to test posts. This is for reproducing site bugs.
