Cindy Kate Meet Up

Oh! Hi! Welcome!

I'm so glad you are able to join us for our biggest meet up yet! You know, it's funny - all these years of playing this silly, awful, wonderful game on the internet, and you do end up becoming quite good friends.

The castle? Oh, it's quite cheap to rent a castle actually. Well, at least in this part of the world. There are so many old, dilapidated castles in France, you wouldn't believe it. Just be a little bit careful as you step inside, I don't know how long these chandeliers will hold. Yeah, maybe just make a semi circle and step around them. Did you get to see Paris at all? Oh, of course, you're just here for the meet up. Well, we're all waiting for you in the dining room. It's not really a dining room, but we brought some snacks.

Actually, we were just about to play a game of mafia, how exciting, right!? It's my first time playing with these people in real life. I just know it'll be great. If there's anyone I trust to take a game of mafia seriously, it's these good folks here. We might even do some role-play. I mean, we'll see how drunk we get. Oh, you brought wine, right in front of me. Role-play it is then!

Ok. Is everyone ready? Let's rand the roles and start the game! Who knows, maybe some of us will die in real life? Hahahahaha. Joking. Totally joking.

Haha.

---

This is a mostly closed setup for 18 players.

There will be a town faction.
There will be a mafia faction.
There will be one or more third parties.

Role claiming and character claiming is allowed.
Neither roles or characters are linked to alignment, but randomly distributed among factions.
All kinds of roles may exist, but the game is not considered bastard.

The player with the most votes at the end of each day will be eliminated. If there is a tie, the elimination will be randed among the tied players.
There will be a posting requirement of at least 10 posts per game day. Failure to meet the requirements will lead to prodding, forced replacement or mod kill.

All Cindy Kate rules apply.
Be respectful and play to your wincon!

The game is hosted by Jack and Dizzy.
This is our color. Do not post in this color, but do read anything posted in this color. Thank youuu!

hello friends! @Justplayingitcool and I (@Marmot) will be your friendly moderators on duty (MoDs) in this game!

we're basically your punching bag. if at any time you feel stressed out and need to vent elsewhere from the thread, we're ready to be your ears. if you see anything from someone else that is concerning or think needs addressing, we'd also love to be alerted as we may not be threadsitting 24/7 and the sooner we address an issue, the less of an issue it becomes!

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

While it is not necessary to include us all in a message, it can help—especially if you need help sooner rather than later! We ask that you please report directly to us 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 one of us is an excellent decision to make. We are also available for reports of any Code of Conduct or Rules violations. 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 Dyslexicon or JackofHearts2005.

Finally, have fun and please don't break any limbs!

"Oh hello there. What's that? You've never met a talking marmot before? I've been talking for years!! Learned from my mum when I was a babe.

Yes, you've come to the right place, this is the beginning of your mafia game! What? Yes I know how to play mafia. Why I was almost a champion once. Anyway, good luck players. It is Day 1 now, go do wallposts and things or whatever it is you do these days.

DAY 1 HAS BEGUN

(Apologies for the delay, your real hosts will be here soon)

To vote you select a name in the poll at the top of the page. If you want to declare your vote in the thred (strongly recommended), you need to either go into the advanced editor, and find the "vote" button (it is a blue button), or use

(vote) person (/vote)

but with square brackets rather than round brackets above.

My role gives me a bonus if I have no vote at EOD. Therefore I will not be voting in the poll. I will not be claiming exact details or flavor in order to avoid a soupkill. I will still use the vote tags to indicate my strongest suspicion.

Anyway Rondo is mafia.

Posted: **Fri Nov 04, 2022 9:44 pm**

Rondo definitely seems one of the worst off entrances, idk if I agree with Seanzie though, not really a fan of the Mac vote
feels like Rondo is trying to overcompensate for something if that makes any sense

I find it hard to believe wolf!Alison takes this approach and instantly roleclaims, well psuedo roleclaims I guess, if u want to argue them not claiming the name should change my thoughts
im curious how you even balance a game with roles and alignments being randed separately, and I am also curious how that works with the 3p we know exists, or possible 3p's (if that ends up being the case)

Usually lots of low to mid power roles

I would assume 3p has a few abilities and one is a safe claim

ur right I dont, i work better with meta, but, I will gravitate towards the people who feel like they are trying to force their entrances, because I think that's when mafia are at their weakest
whether that's you or not, I guess time will tell

See above for Seanzie.

Milium is town because they are a completely fresh face in the middle of an extremely insular playerlist that all know each other and have lots of experience with each other and still come off as the most relaxed and comfortable person in the thread.

I rescind my townread on Seanzie because he didn't get offended enough when I said he was out of his scum range.

I am telling the truth about my role incentivizing not voting in all worlds because it is a silly thing to lie about and would directly sabotage me for no gain.

The not voting thing is NAI as it is something that can conceivably be given to any alignment.

Rondo is being reasonable and townie and solvey which means he is lock mafia.

Posted: **Fri Nov 04, 2022 10:57 pm**

Long ago, the four nations lived in harmony. But that all changed when the fire nation attacked.

Only the avatar, master of all 4 elements, could bring balance. But when the world needed him the most, he vanished.

nah, i dont tend to see vote manipulation on wolves, nor one that makes them lose their vote for benefits, but that's irrelevant anyways because alignment and roles were randed separately
im just reading you off how you claimed it, which looks pretty unlikely to come from a wolf at this point and time
anyways ill be back

Posted: **Fri Nov 04, 2022 10:58 pm**

Just to be clear I have a bonus if I don't vote but I can still vote if I want so if voting is more important than getting the bonus (eg. tie between me and my scumread and I need to self pres) I will.
