The Long Halloween
Plot
Welcome welcome everyone to a new DC Mafia Game! As a new season starts another game begins, this time it’s all about the Holidays. There is a new killer on the loose. That killer is called Holiday. They only kill on major holidays during the year. The first time they started their rampage was on Halloween night…
GAME PLAY
The game has 2 stages: a day phase and a night phase. During the day everyone gets to vote out a player they feel is a villain. During the night phase the villains converse on who they are taking out of the game. Just letting everyone know now the game starts in a night phase. Your objective is to find the villains and vote them out before they find you! That’s really it. Everything else is up to you players! There will be an example post in the FAQ of what these will look like. Character abilities can be used during the day phase or night phase depending on the character. How it usually goes is most players use their abilities during the night phase of the game unless it is a day voting ability or an immune ability in which case those get used during the day phases of the game. The game can be complex at times as know one knows who is who (except for the villains). Use a strategy and keep your friends close…
RULES
-
ALL PLAYERS MUST PARTICIPATE - This being said non villains are required to post at least once every 24 hours in the group PM because there will be so much going on on the main thread; basically if you vote that counts towards you being “active” and usually 2 or 3 phases pass in the 24 hour period.
-
You are REQUIRED to vote every day phase if you don’t do this you are automatically out of the game. During that time after you vote you are to post anything in regards to saying that you have voted during the day phase. This also counts as you being active. (See rule #1).
-
You DO NOT have to post in the main thread to stay in the game. However, if you want to keep up with the game the main thread (there will be a link). You should at least read over a few of the posts. As from previous games it gets post heavy.
-
DO NOT REVEAL YOUR CHARACTER! Unless you are a villain and in the villain group PM. The point of this game is to FIND the villains and vote them out before they get to you first.
-
Since this has been a huge issue in terms of game play, all abilities and how many times they can be used are IN CAPS and BOLDED.
-
When posting in our game room PM please keep conversations to a minimum. As that is where I can tell who has voted or not.
-
I will be announcing who has met their fate here in the main thread as well as the group PM. If you need to see an example I will post a link in the FAQ.
-
Don’t be afraid to ask questions either here on the main thread or in the PM’s!
-
THERE IS NO EDITING OR DELETING POSTS I cannot stress this enough. Even before the game starts. DO NOT POST UNLESS YOU HAVE LOOKED OVER IT FIRST
-
Just have FUN! Don’t take this too seriously and enjoy the game!
