The Quantum Mafia - Night 2: Replacement needed
« on: September 13, 2009, 03:14:43 pm »

So, after reading this, I decided to make a mafia game based off of it. However, I will adjust the rules to make it more uninformed majority vs. informed minority.

There are only three town roles in this game, simply to prevent my head from exploding. Cop, Vigilante, doctor. You must PM me your action for each role.

The role PM will now only tell you which mafia teams you could be on if you're mafia. Everyone has a shot at each role. However, when a mafia player is lynched the quicktopics will all be closed as there will only be 1 scum left of the two possible teams.

Night: you send an action for each of your possible roles. The cop will return "If you are cop, Player1 is scum, supposing he searched Player1. It's kind of hard to explain

I'll determine at the start your chance of each role.

EVERYONE HAS A CHANCE OF BEING EVERY ROLE.

Otherwise, rules are more or less standard mafia with double lynches. I'll take 8 players for this, simply because more would be too much to handle

In.  Or, more accurately, I now have a 50% chance of having just joined.

How do you know it's 50?

I mean, I could do a 2/3 - 1/3 split with you joining.

Ok, so I guess the probability's also quantum.  There is a 50% chance of the chance being 50-50, a 25% chance of the chance being 49-51, a 12.5% chance of the chance being 48-52...

Of course, there's only a 50% chance that this is true.

This is going to be very confusing, RedWarrior. Are you sure you're up to it? Still, I'm in. This should be pretty nonserious, so what the heck.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

It won't get that complicated, and the probabilities will be single digit over single digit or single digit over low double digit.

And anything I say is certain in this game.


Fake edit: I think I'm up to it. I'll try even if I'm not up to it. It may very well kill me, but I'll try.

And even if you have a chance to be dead, your vote counts the same amount.

I might put a single role in to make things a little easier.

e.g. "You are the only thing certain in this world. You wish to take revenge against your family's killers. You are a Scumhunter, certain that you're not mafia, trying to convince the others of the killer's identity. (The first time someone you vote for is lynched and has a nonzero possibility of being scum, they will be scum)"

Edit: Removed the redundancy in an edit.

So, let me get this straight, the nightkills are only effective if a person actually turns up as mafia when lynched?

Hmm, confusing sounds like a really fun way to play mafia.  I'll join up.

Yeah, pretty much that's it. With the lynch, if the person flips mafia, "Suddenly X disappears from the room. You rush to his house, finding his dead body with wounds that had clearly been dealt the previous night. It is night now, and you can ponder this mystery in the morning." or something like that will be said.

You could still host the next one, right?

... Quantum Toon Mafia might be a bad idea, though.

Yeah, I was going to take a break off Toon Mafia when that was over.  I was going to do Quantum!  :V

I still can though, just everybody will be like, "REDWAROR DOES FIST."
