Courtroom Mafia Sign-up

Topsummoner · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 9:24 am

With Mountain Village ending soon, I'd like to get this sign-up going a little early.

Courtroom Mafia is my newest variant. This time, the major difference isn't in roles or win conditions... it's the very gameplay of Mafia.

Those of you familiar with the variant Kingmaker will find this first mechanic change familiar: there is a village power role called the President.

President PM wrote:

During the night phase, chooses a player to be the Judge during the next Trial phase. When the President dies, a random Civilian becomes the new President. If no Civilians remain, then a random power role. The President may not make himself the Judge. The President may not choose a player who was the Judge in the previous Trial phase. The President must also include a backup Judge choice in case his first pick dies.

There are three phases:

Night (36 Hours)
Nomination (48 Hours)
Trial (48+ Hours)

The night phase occurs as normal. Power roles send in their night actions. The President chooses a Judge.

At the beginning of the nomination phase, the chosen Judge is revealed. Players then must vote on who they want to put on trial. Each player only has one vote in this phase, and cannot change it once it is placed! (Format: Nominate: Player) At the end of the phase, the player with the most votes is put on trial. A majority does not have to be reached, but if it is, the phase will end early. If there is a vote tie, the Trial phase will be skipped.

During the trial phase, the first voter for the nominated player becomes the Plantiff. The nominated player becomes the Defendant. The Defendant may choose to elect a Lawyer, but may also opt out. (Elect: Player) During this phase, only the Plantiff, Defendant, Lawyer, and Judge may speak. Other players may show their opinion by voting Guilty or Not Guilty. This vote can be changed and has no bearing on whether the Defendant is lynched. As soon as the Plantiff, Defendant, and Lawyer have all posted at least once, the 48-hour deadline begins. The Judge must reach a verdict of Guilty or Not Guilty in this time. (Format: Verdict: (Not) Guilty) If he fails to do so, he will be lynched himself. If he chooses Guilty, the Defendant is lynched. If he chooses Not Guilty, the Trial phase ends with no lynch.

Additional notes on the pseudo-roles of the Trial phase:

There are additional 'real' power roles involved with the game, but what they are will be a secret.

Feel free to ask questions. Sign-up now... looking for 9 players, but if there are more, I will adjust the setup to compensate.

Don't you think you're starting this early? There's still another Day and Night cycle left in Mountain Village.

Also, in.

I want enough time to adjust the setup if I get too many sign-ups. I won't start until after Mountain Village is over, for sure.

Top always starts his sign-ups earlier than usual. Makes the planning period and transition a little more seamless. You don't have to try to influence Mountain Village any longer. :ura:

In.

Godders · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 11:25 am

In, please.

Scar · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 11:33 am

In for sure.

Ex Rex · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 12:08 pm

I suppose I'll in.

Try not to die TOO early. <3

I'll just sit this one out, which I think a lot of people will be happy with.

That's 9, but I'll give it another day or two in case... I don't know, Market signs up?

Market Man6 · **Posted:** August 22nd, 2012, 7:28 am

Thanks for the thoughts top, but I can't make this one. I won't be around for the next week or so. There is no cell service(technically very very little, as I am actually able to post for once) where I am. ...as you can tell by my recent activity on the boards.

Also, COD is out for this one. He's with me

Dr Henry · **Posted:** August 22nd, 2012, 7:30 am

Is Judge still around on these forums? He should take part

Topsummoner · **Posted:** August 22nd, 2012, 12:17 pm

May as well say sign-up's closed then. PMs will be going out and the game should start soon.

Archbishop of Banana · **Posted:** August 22nd, 2012, 6:26 pm

Im in if i can be jury ;o

Kikori · **Posted:** August 22nd, 2012, 7:29 pm

We don't actively get to choose our roles. They have to be sent to us via PM before the game starts, and in this case, how the roles play out is determined by our actions.
