Ok how many of you guys have played
Mafia before? I just got this idea thanks to Thrackerzod's prisoner-dilemma tournament and i like it so i'm going to roll with it.
-Stock MW
-Maximum of 24 entrants, minimum of 16. Once I receive 16 robots the tournament will close 24 hours later.
-BFE, AAM, RA2CF, Hax Mode, etc are all banned. Your robot must be built completely in the bot lab with no external programs (movepixel is ok, if you actually still use that)
-Cheatbot2 parts are banned.
-No AI wizardry. Looking at you, Apanx.
-Robots must show controlled movement.
-Melty-brain AI is not allowed.
-Matches last for one minute and will take place in the Containment Cube.
-Game-altering havoks will not be shown. Excessively havoky robots will be rejected.
-Re-entries from Crapcan Derby 2 will not be accepted.
-Multibots are allowed and must add up to 398.9 kg or less.
-No updates will be allowed. Once you send your robot, that's it.
Now here's the fun part of this tournament. It doesn't use a regular format, instead everyone that sends me a robot will be given a certain role, based on a mafia role. The game starts in "night phase", and posting in the thread is forbidden. Instead, if you have a role that allows for a night action, you can PM me a target and your night action will take place. After 24 hours, the phase shifts to "day phase" which lasts 48 hours. You are given the results of the previous night's actions including any dead players. Everyone can post in the thread to discuss the previous night's actions and decide who to lynch (kill) per day. Everyone gets one vote as to who to kill, and you can change that vote however many times you want to until the phase ends. Then another night phase begins, and so on until one faction (town, mafia, or a third party) is the only one left standing. These roles will be outlined below.
Where does RA2 come into this? Every time a killing action is made, whether it be a night kill or a lynch, the kill will be decided in an RA2 battle. You have one minute to kill your opponent, if neither robot is KOed, no kill happens. If the victim KOs his killer, then the killer dies.If the killer KOs the victim, the victim dies. If one robot is immobilized, they do not die but instead are "incapacitated" and cannot post the following day phase. How a lynch works is that the final person to vote will put their robot in against the robot being lynched.
You cannot screencap or copy/paste messages between yourself and the host (me).
If you miss two whole phases without activity, you will be killed off.
No metagaming (IE: "this guy is using the PM system so that means he's x role"). This includes posting PMs between yourself and the host.
Play for your side and your side only.
Majority vote is required for a lynch, which means half the people alive.
A lynch will be completed when day phase ends, not when the first majority is reached.
The dead cannot change the course of the game at any point.
Roles are revealed on death.
Only killing roles will receive the videos of their night kills until they die, when all kills they made will be posted at once.
Roles:
The town consists of most of the game's players. Their goal is to eliminate any mafia or killers that lurk within their town.
Doctor: The doctor can choose one person per night. That person is immune to all night kills.
Cop: The cop can choose one person per night. The cop learns that person's role at the end of the night.
Vigilante: The vigilante can choose one person each night and attempt to kill them. However, his gun only has three shots, and if you kill another townsperson, you kill yourself the next night.
Lookout: The lookout chooses one person each night, and learns who else visits that person overnight.
Townie: These players have no special ability, but they can still vote in the lynch every day.
The mafia know who each other are at the start of the game, but they are fewer than the townspeople. They can talk among themselves at night via PM or an alternate chat group. They need to work together and eliminate the town, making them the only group left. The mafia must vote on who the mafioso kills each night by sending me a PM with their vote.
Godfather: The godfather is the leader of the mafia and the most powerful. He cannot be detected by the cop, coming up as a townsperson. He is also immune to any other night kills.
Mafioso: The mafioso does the mafia's dirty work, performing every kill. If he dies, then the goon becomes a mafioso. If the second mafioso dies, then it's the hooker's turn, with the godfather killing if all other mafia are dead.
Escort: The escort can choose one player each night and "seduce" them, making them unable to perform their night action. If the escort seduces the serial killer, the serial killer will kill her instead of his usual target.
Goon: The goon votes on who to kill with the rest of the mafia. If the mafioso dies, the goon becomes the new mafioso.
Third-party roles are loners, they have no one else to help them win. They usually have special criteria to win, which will be outlined below:
Serial Killer: The serial killer can choose one person each night and kill them. He's also immune to any other night killing roles. He also does not die if he loses an RA2 battle at night. The serial killer wins if he's the last person standing.
Jester: The jester is insane, and wants to be lynched in front of the town. If he succeeds, he wins the game, but the game will continue, and he will win alongside whatever faction wins the game. If he is lynched, he can choose one person to kill from beyond the grave, and kill them automatically without an RA2 battle.
Survivor: The survivor simply wants to get through this game in one piece. He can visit one person each night, and he uses this person as a human shield. Any roles that are sent to this person will go to the person shielding him. However, he can still be seduced by the escort. He wins if he is alive when any other faction wins.
