How long will the game last?

Good question and Kirbys answer was spot on.

Also, did you watch the video IGCD posted? Ive given a very basic explanation below but if youre serious about playing, Id strongly recommend doing some research on how the game is played. If you show up when the game begins and say remind me what I can do as scum youre going to die quickly lol

Mafia games can be very long and you arent expected to be around for every minute of the entire game. There are typically two teams, town and scum. You win or lose as a team. So even if you die, you will still win if your team wins the game.

As scum, youre trying to make people think youre town. As town, youre trying to figure out who is on the scum team.

Each day in this game of mafia will typically last 48 real life hours. Then we have a 24 hour night period. During the day everyone posts to either find scum (the secret bad team) or pretend to be town (if youre a member of the bad team) by asking questions and analyzing behavior. Generally everyone gets a vote for who they feel is a member of the scum team, and when the day ends (48 hours later) or the majority of players have voted for one person, the person with the most votes is eliminated and it becomes night.

At night no one is allowed to post in the thread. Any players with a night action (if you get one, youll learn about it in your role pm) choose if and on whom if applicable to use their action. Scum gets to kill someone. After 24 hours of night a new day begins and the cycle repeats itself.
