Mountainous Two-Kill Tenner #2 - States in the US [END]

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Mountainous Two-kill Tenner
A JaggedJimmyJay setup
We'll do a theme about states in the US. Why not?

Game Staff:

@JaggedJimmyJay - Host
@Scotty - Moderator on Duty
TBD - Moderator on Duty

Players:

@Drwilgy - posts
@falcon45ca - posts
@MacDougall - posts
@Porscha - posts

Setup:

Eliminated:

@lucy - posts - Eliminated on Day 1 - Town
@Seanzie - posts - Eliminated on Day 1 - Town
@Alison - posts - Killed on Night 1 - Town
@Sabiplz - posts - Eliminated on Day 2 - Mafia
@NotAnAxehole - posts - Killed on Night 2 - Town
@Achromatic - posts - Eliminated on Day 3 - Mafia

Days are 48 hours long. Nights are 24 hours long.

The game is mountainous. There are 8 members of the town faction and 2 members of the mafia faction. Everything is ordinary with respect to day eliminations and night kills, with the exception of a single wrinkle meant to provide pro-town balance and eliminate the necessity of a standard 8 vs. 2 "no elimination" (sleep) vote:

On Day 1 and only on Day 1, two players will be eliminated by vote instead of just one. On Day 1, every player may cast up to two votes to determine who the two players eliminated are. See below for details on ties.

After Day 1, the game proceeds as normal. One night kill per night phase, and one day elimination by vote per day phase.

Remember that the premier rules in any Syndicate Mafia game come straight from the site rules. Review those rules below, and direct any concerns you may have to the host or moderator(s) on duty.

[Link] Rules and Guidelines on The Syndicate

Also always be mindful of the culture of respect that must be maintained in all Syndicate spaces at all times, to include this game thread and any external communication spaces relating to the game. Players must be respectful to one another, to the game host, to the members of the staff overseeing the game, to the game itself by way of its rules and spirit, to the Syndicate community in general, and ideally also to themselves. Respect is never optional. See our full manifesto on our culture of respect below.

Game rules and guidelines (CLICK THE SPOILER AND READ)

Voting and Claiming Rules

1.) Claim whatever you want if anything. This game has no roles.
2.) Votes in the poll are official, and I will only consider the poll votes when I resolve a day phase. It is still obligatory to call votes in the game thread, as the poll does not track voting order. Call your votes to make it possible to discern timing and order. This is not optional. Please call votes with the [ vote ][ /vote ] tags (no spaces).
3.) Votes are changeable with no limitations.
4.) Voting is not obligatory. There is no requirement to vote in any phase whatsoever. There are participation standards though, which I'll cover separately.
5.) The player who has received the most votes at the deadline shall be chopped. If a majority vote is reached (next integer above 50% the number of living players), the day phase will end immediately. There will be no majority vote in effect on Day 1.
6.) In the event of a tied vote, the chopped player shall be decided among the tied names at random. This includes Day 1 in which two players are chopped. If the second-highest vote total is tied on Day 1, then that tie will be randomized. If the highest vote total is tied, then both players will be eliminated (or two of the people in the tie if it's more than two-way).
7.) A "no elimination" option will be included each day phase. This option must lead the tally with no ties to be enacted at any time.

Participation Standard

There is no rigid standard for participation; this will be at the host's discretion. All players are expected to make a sincere effort to contribute to the game thread consistently enough that their content can be fairly judged. Non-participation has an adverse effect upon the balance of the game. If I decide a player is not participating enough to facilitate this balance, that player will be replaced. If a replacement cannot be found, there might be a modkill. With this in mind I reiterate: it's very important that everyone try to participate. At least a few posts per day/night cycle are a bare minimum.

Other

1.) Respect all guidelines and rules found in The Syndicate's announcements section. Above all else, treat your fellow players with respect -- this is just a game.
2.) BTSC (behind the scenes chatter) is only permitted in host-designated locations.
3.) No editing or deleting of posts in the game thread.
4.) Just don't make posts when you're dead unless you have been given express permission by the host.
5.) Non-players may not post in the game thread.
6.) Living players wishing to discuss something off-topic may choose to do so in {Off-Topic} Green. There's an "OT" button for this in the post editor. This is not required.
7.) This is the Host Color. I don't actually care if you use it, just don't impersonate me. I might use a stupid font.
8.) If you ever have any questions about the rules, roles, or setup, please ask me privately.

Angleshooting, loopholes, and the spirit of the game

Don't.

We all know what the spirit of Mafia is about. So don't. If you ever think something might be cutting it close, just ask me before doing it/saying it. Thanks gang.

Some important examples:

- Please don't interact with the host in the game thread.
- Do not falsely concede the game as a reaction test or as a joke.
- Do not engage in excessive emotional appeals that step over lines of basic social decency.
- Do not discuss anything related to another Mafia game that is still ongoing as of the time of your post.


Sample town role card:

You're town.

The game begins at 6:00 PM EDT today (Wednesday) the 17th of August. You may access the game thread here (click).

Day 2

Spoiler: show

[JaggedJimmyJay]

The game will begin today, on Wednesday the 17th of August, at 6:00 PM EDT. There will be no Day 0. We will begin immediately with Day 1. On Day 1, two players will be eliminated instead of just one. Every player will be able to cast up to two votes instead of just one. The two players with the most votes will be eliminated. In the event of a two-way tie at the highest number of votes, both players will be eliminated. In the event of a more-than-two-way tie at the highest number of votes, two players will be selected at random from the tied set to be eliminated. In the event of a tie at the second-highest number of votes, the second player eliminated will be randomized from that set.

During all day phases after Day 1, only one player will be eliminated, and all ties will be randomized.

[Scotty]

G’day! I'm Scotty, one of your friendly neighborhood Moderators on Duty (MoDs).

If you would like to reach me, you can PM me here on the Syndicate or DM me on Discord. Here's the info you need for that:

Time Zone: Eastern Daylight Savings (UTC-5)

I ask that you please report directly to me rather than using the report post feature, as people with access to those reports are in this game and it presents a risk to game integrity.

Please remember that every other player is also human. We all make mistakes. None of us are perfect. Treat others with respect and exercise self-care if you feel yourself beginning to get angry or upset at the game. If you need to vent and have no one to turn to, messaging a MoD is an excellent decision to make. We are also available for reports of any Code of Conduct or Rules violation. Consider us your lifeline so that the game state remains healthy and exciting for everyone.

If you have game-related queries (setup, role questions, game play, etc.) please contact the Host JaggedJimmyJay. Please have fun and enjoy the game!

[JaggedJimmyJay]

This game has a theme. The theme is about states. The states are the states contained in the United States. Some states suck. Find the states that suck.

Day 1 is underway and will last 48 hours until 6:00 PM EDT on Friday the 19th of August. Refer to this post (click) for details on how the Day 1 double chop voting works. Have fun and play respectfully, folks.

But it's also something I'd say if I randed Town, and I've randed Maf so much lately that I should be lock town for the rest of the year.
