Stool Pigeon Mafia - Game Over! Mafia Win!!! MVP- Zimmah
Posted: Sun Aug 14, 2011 4:19 am
This is the first of many pigeon mafia games that I hope to mod. I hope that it will become a popular variant and modded by many (not just me).
This was the original way I learned to play Mafia. In my high school theatre class, we would often play mafia as an ice breaker activity. There were about 18 students in the class. There were 6 mafia, and 12 townies. One of the townies was a Stool Pigeon. The stool pigeon is an ex-mafia member, who escaped and changed his/her identity. The stool pigeon knows all of the mafia, and the townies. Mafia and town do not know who the stool pigeon is. The pigeon cannot reveal himself/herself, nor mention anyone's role directly.
Concept:
No cops, no doctors.
No roles revealed at any point in the game.
Pigeon cannot claim true role.
Pigeon cannot directly reveal information.
This game will also consist of informants, who will have the same rules as the pigeon.
All pigeons and informants are town in this game.
There will be VT's and anti-town roles (ex. Mafia)
I will be attempting to host several rt pigeon games throughout the next few weeks. I have already run two of them. This is so players can get an idea of how the game works, which will greatly help them if they join this game.
Co- Mod: Safariguy5 checked this setup for balance and approved
As a co-mod, he will have access to all player roles, information, night actions, etc.
I am hoping to get 24 players.

[spoiler=Rules]Below are the rules as often used in Mafia games, borrowed from numerous Moderators.
1. This game is moderated by me (Violet), I am the law. Whatever I say goes. If I make a mistake I’ll do my best to fix it. All roles will be given out randomly.
2. Do not quote any PMs you receive from the Mod. The only things you may post (loosely paraphrasing) are your roles (and anything associated with them), and alignment, during the active game. Once the game has concluded, feel free to post the rest of your personal information. You may not post your win condition, how many words are in your role PM, or any other kind of way to get around not quoting PMs.
3. If you forget your role, or you delete it, that is your own fault. I suggest not doing either. However you may pm me, and I will send your role again.
4. All ‘votes’ and ‘unvotes’ must be in bold. If they are not, they will not be tallied. (I.E. [b]Vote: Dazerazer) If you vote two or more times consecutively without an unvote in between them, then the first vote will be the one that gets tallied.
5. Lynching requires a majority of the town vote, and once the majority has been reached any and all unvotes will not be counted.
6. Once your death scene has been posted, you are dead. You can no longer post anything revealing or of substance. Whining is alright, Voices from beyond the grave alright, as long as nothing of substance is revealed.
7. You may vote ‘no lynch’ to end the day without a death.
8. The game will not be discussed outside this thread, unless your role specifically says you may do so.
9. Do not edit/delete previous posts. Whatever you say goes into historical record.
10. Day scenes I write will be fun and comical, don’t read too far into them. No clues or game information will be hidden in the text.
11. Joking in the thread is fine, but don’t let it get carried away and take over as spam.
12. Be attentive and active in the game. If I see you are not posting at all, I will prod all those who are inactive. If there is no timely response, you will be replaced.
13. Each game ‘day’ will not have a deadline unless activity decreases. I will remind everyone if the deadline is near, and to look toward voting. If no majority is reached at the end of the deadline if made, a ‘no lynch’ will be forced, sending the game into the night phase.
14. Similarly, each game ‘night’ will not last more than 36 hours. I will remind all those who have night choices when the deadline is near. Once the next day begins, if I have not received your night choice, you will have lost your choice action (I.E. for mafia, there would be a ‘no kill’, etc).
15. If you have any questions about whether you should or shouldn’t do something, or just need some clarification, feel free to PM me.[/spoiler]
