Mafia 47 - The Sixth Mass Extinction, Sign Ups

[Nephthys]

##CALL GM

Actually I have some questions about the setup.

Let's start with this "Diseases" effect caused by the Cow:

"Diseases - At the start of the game, choose a player, if that person is involved in your death, they will also die."

1. What does "start of the game" mean precisely? Does the Cow have to pick a target during the first phase, or will there be a special pre-game period where roles have been issued, but the game thread has not opened? In this latter case, how long will that pre-phase run for, and when does it commence?

2. Can you precisely define "involved" in this context? For example:
- If I am the first voter on a wagon, push it hard all day, persuade people to join it, but then jump off and vote someone else in the final moments of the day, but the person still gets lynched, was I "involved" in that lynch or not, for the purposes of the Disease effect?
- If I have an investigative role, be it watcher or something cop related, and I scan the Cow, and somehow am able to reveal my scan and out them as scum, and then everyone votes for the Cow and they get lynched, but for my own reasons I vote no-lynch, was I involved in their death?

I hope to get PMs out 24hrs before game start to allow cow/lover to submit choices. The cow will know their mafia buddies at this stage.

Involved is either a vote in the final count (including stolen votes) or a command (such as a shot) that kills the cow. In both scenarios you outline you are not involved.

Ok GM thanks.

Also how is the lover supposed to decide who to choose, if they must choose before the game has begun? You might as well just assign it.

Clearly for the sick irony that they determined their own destiny. Much more dramatic than a random roll bot.

Also, why is Vote Stealer a town role?

Why shouldn't it be?

Because it's fundamentally anti-town to have people's votes moved around.

[Jamiet99uk]

Essentially vote stealer, as town, is a negative utility power, unless they use it to prevent their own mislynch.

Big true

I truly don't see much of an issue with it.

Why not?

I can definitely think of pro town uses.

You know what his next questions' are going to be... List out these uses you can think of.

Any more players?

I can definitely think of pro town uses.

There are only two I can think of:

1. Protecting yourself from mislynch by moving a vote off yourself if you become a lead wagon.

2. Townclearing yourself by declaring your role and confirming which vote you are going to steal.

Question for the GM, will we wait to get a full roster to start, or start as intended on the 10th and rejig the setup to accommodate the player count?
