(Shamelessly copied from Han and Ctes, with some edits of my own. Anything unique to this game or that needs to be emphasized is in bold. Otherwise, these are the standard rules)

GENERAL
- Mafia is a game of the uninformed majority (the BLUE TEAM, otherwise known as TOWN), against the informed minority (the RED TEAM, otherwise known as MAFIA/SCUM). It is the TOWNs job to eradicate the MAFIA completely, and the MAFIAs job to survive to a point where numbers are such that they cannot lose.
- The TOWN eliminates the MAFIA via lynches, which occur once a DAY. Everyone gets one vote which they may place on whoever they feel is scum. Whoever receives the most votes is lynched and removed from the game. DAYs last 48 hours or until a lynch is decided.
- During the NIGHT phase, the MAFIA gets its chance to even the numbers slightly by killing someone and removing them from the game. NIGHTs last 24 hours.
- The game ends when one faction meets its victory condition. A player will win, even if they are dead, as long as their alignment triumphs.

ETIQUETTE
- I reserve the right to modkill anyone that breaks any of the rules. Depending on the degree of the rule break you may or may not receive a warning before I act. Any judgment I make regarding modkills is final and is not allowed to be discussed at all before the game is over. It is not in my interest to modkill, so simply avoid forcing me to decide.
- A basic level of activity is expected in this game. You are not expected to post for the whole 48 hours, but you are expected to keep up to speed with the topic. This is a rare rule in which you are guaranteed to receive a formal warning before I act.
- In the event a replacement happens, you are not allowed to discuss the reasons for the replacement at all.
- Play to win. There is no such thing as being in an unwinnable position in mafia, however hopeless it may seem. You are not allowed to sabotage your faction.
- You are forbidden from talking to another player about the game outside the topic, unless you have a special board, or permission from the host to do so.
- You are forbidden from posting in the topic during the night phase (including after the final vote is cast/a STOP is called). Posting at :00 is too late. I will try to be nice and reasonable about this but do not attempt to take advantage of it.
- You are forbidden from editing or deleting posts. This includes players who have been eliminated from the game. It is permissible to edit a simple typo into a post, but substituting sentences or even words as well as adding or removing content is strictly against the rules. If you are worried about editing typos, always make a new post instead.
- You are forbidden from posting pictures of other players into the topic. Do not post audio clips into the topic.
- You are forbidden from making bets or stake a claim on outside forces during the game i.e. do not swear on your mothers life that you are telling the truth.
- You must play nice. Deliberate intimidation, harassment or verbal abuse of another player in a malicious and uncalled for fashion is not allowed. This is extremely important. Telling someone that their play is stupid is fine. Telling someone they are stupid is not.
- You are not allowed to have any players in the game blocked at any point while the game is going on, even if neither of you is alive.
- Do what the Host says. I reserve the right to change the rules at any point during the game as I see fit. Feel free to ask me questions privately at any time.

VOTING
- You vote in the format ##Vote: [playername], in bold. You can remove your vote by posting ##Unvote, also in bold. You can also choose to ##Vote: No Lynch. You are not required to unvote before voting elsewise, but it is appreciated for tallying purposes.
- The lynch is decided on a plurality system. Once one player receives votes from a simple majority left in the game, the day immediately ends, and that player is lynched. Failing that, every day has a time limit of 48 hours. The player in the lead at that point will be lynched.
- If two or more players are tied in votes at the end of the day, the day will go into a one-hour overtime. If the tie is not broken after the one-hour period, I will randomly choose one of the tied players to be lynched. Overtime ends as soon as all ties are broken. No Lynch is an exception and will always be chosen if it is among the tied options. If you dislike this rule, do not let the day end in a tie.
- You are not allowed to vote for yourself.

ROLES
- Everyone received their roles prior to the game. This contained flavor text, character, alignment and role. You must read this before playing the game. All roles have been given out at random and are not tied at all to the flavor you chose.
- You are allowed to share your role with the game.
- You are allowed to share your flavor text but only paraphrased using your own words. Directly copy/pasting is forbidden. Ask me beforehand if you're in doubt. Flavor is meant to be fun but not meant to be used to solve the game. That leads me to the next rule.
- Trying to metagame is allowed but not recommended. Metagaming is drawing conclusions based on predictions and explanations of the host or the setup.
- Remember to check your messages before posting on each new day, even if you are not expecting correspondence from the host. There may be something you need to be aware of before posting.

SUPER SMASH BROS. MAFIA
- Rather than traditional roles, SCUM has a pool of items to use as night actions. Each scum may use one item per night. These items all have limited uses, though some items can be used more than once.
- Every role is defined by ACTIONs and/or ABILITYs. ACTIONs are standard night actions that require user input to use. ABILITYs are passive and trigger automatically or when certain conditions are met. These classifications are meant to help clearly define what a role can do and serve no other purpose.
- Most actions will have a priority associated with them. These priorities can be High, Normal, or Low. This information simply helps with generally understanding how your actions would be resolved relative to other actions. The priority tiers are described as such:

[Priority: High]
This action will be among one of the first ones to occur during the night phase.

[Priority: Normal]
This action will occur between any high- and low-priority actions during the night phase.

[Priority: Low]
This action will be among one of the last ones to occur during the night phase.

In this world, there exists a being known as Master Hand. Creator of this universe, the almighty manus is all too familiar with the thrill of battle. Summoning champions from different realms to fight in battles of splendor, Master Hand wont hesitate to join the fray or even team up with his sinistral counterpart, Crazy Hand.

The two hands work together as a balanced dichotomy of creation and destruction. One force cannot be sustained without the other, and yet one cannot help but be curious and wonder: is one force mightier than the other?

In a grand battle, would the victor be the side with greater numbers or the side with greater strength? If one continues to create more fighters, would that result in victory? Or would a smaller but stronger contingent hold their own?

There is only one way to answer that question. Taking the side of creation, Master Hand recruits his champions to fight under the banner of the BLUE TEAM. On the side of destruction is Crazy Hand, who has granted immense power to his smaller formation of RED TEAM champions.

The two factions meet on the fields of battle, each side ready to fight for their causes. Within moments, the great battle begins as the first fighters begin to fall. A booming voice resounds over the battlefield

Player 18 defeated!
Player 19 defeated!

Who can say how the battle will end? The choices you make here will determine the outcome.

Kirby321 has been KOd!

You are Robin, The Tactician Magician, BLUE TEAM Vanilla.

A brilliant strategist, you are the advisor and tactician of the Shepherds. You have a potent mastery of both swords and magic, with a particular affinity for the magical Levin Sword weapon and the thunder-type spell Thoron. Despite remembering nothing of your past, your thoughtful and amicable character has let you forge newfound bonds with your fellow Shepherds. Looking to study battle tactics and bolster your strategies, you enter the fields of battle.

You are well-rounded and have a natural talent for picking up new skills and proficiencies. For this battle, though, you believe its best to stick with the basics.

ABILITY: Casual Player - You have no special powers. You only have your voice and your vote.

VICTORY CONDITION: Eliminate all RED TEAM players before they outnumber you and take over the game.

PunishedBen has been KOd!

You are Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel, BLUE TEAM Vanilla.

Hailed as a legendary SOLDIER 1st Class, you are an extremely powerful being able to wield the Masamune, a sword with a length exceeding your own height. Upon discovering the dark truth behind your origins, you have sworn to enact vengeance upon humanity, believing yourself to be the chosen one destined to lead the planet. The time for judgment is now, and thus, you enter the fields of battle.

You are confident in your abilities and strength. Despite having massive fame, you dont need it. All you need to rely on is yourself.

ABILITY: Casual Player - You have no special powers. You only have your voice and your vote.

VICTORY CONDITION: Eliminate all RED TEAM players before they outnumber you and take over the game.

DO NOT BEGIN POSTING YET!!

(Host's note: Roles were not rolled at the time Ben withdrew from the game, but I had already written the first half of his flavor and didn't want it to go to waste. So the second half was freshly written to fit a Vanilla role, as yet another example of a BLUE TEAM Vanilla role PM.)

A great evil has befallen my kingdom of Hyrule, and yet the fabled Hero of Time remains deep in his slumber. I seek only the purest of heart to fight in his stead. I ask of you...nay, I beg of you. The fate of Hyrule hangs in the balance

2 questions:

  1. What exactly is a mason buddy? Like a Watson to your Holmes?
  2. Did you suspect the person you ultimately lynched?

Hi frenemies.

Ctes said i don't owe him my first vote but i don't want to feel like i am indebted to him.
So when he casts his first vote, you should mentally add a +1 because I'll put mine there too when i am next available.

If he is a weak pos who avoids voting like last game, then we'll catch him as scum. Easy peasy.

When i next post I'll likely be drunk. Glhf.

i've yet to find a compelling reason (aside from comedy, i suppose) not to presume innocence on day 1 page 1 post 1 from people. the chances of me instantly clocking anyone as scum aside from a complete newbie that early might as well be zero.

if they are scum i'll figure it out later, no biggie

I've been meaning to ask you since our last game, do you prefer Wall or Wallz as a shorthand?

Also enjoy the trip!

Thank you, I hope to enjoy the trip! Going to visit my part-time snowbird in-laws before they head back up north for the summer. That part is fine, just not jazzed for the drive and sleeping arrangements.

Wallz is good. Normally I would say wall, but a lot of folks here kinda latched onto wallz early and I like that too. It seems fitting to mix up the shorthand a little for B8.
