Altitude Mafia 6.0!
Altitude Mafia 6.0 Here is the link to the past game, if you want to see how it is played: Altitude Mafia: Version 5.0 INTRODUCTION: Altitude Mafia: Version 6.0 is an educated guessing game of epic proportions. The objective of the game is to lynch or kill all the Mafia members before they outnumber the rest of the town. It's much like a game of poker because Mafia members are also part of the town during the day and may manipulate the vote to their liking. This Mafia game works slightly different than the previous game so I'll explain it a bit more. During the night, Mafia will collectively decide on who to kill, and send in their hits to me. Any player with a special roles can PM me their actions during the night phase. If the Mafia at any time outnumber or equal the townspeople, they win the game. The goal for the townspeople is to lynch all the members of the Mafia by whatever analysis, teamwork, or guile they have. The goal of the Mafia of course, is to kill the townspeople with murderous precision. However there are also 3rd party roles who may also win the game, if they can accomplish their goals before the battle between the Mafia and Town can finish. PLAYER LIST: 1. shrode - Martyr 2. CCN 3. Jrathje 4. banana 5. shmo55 6. Stormich - Townie 7. DMCM 8. Massi 9. andy 10. tyr - Goon 11. Cloud 12. apathy - Goon 13. evilarsenal - Janitor 14. Wok3N^ 15. Kuja900 - Oracle 16. Danielle - Townie 17. [Y] 18. GGQ - Silencer 19. MintzMachete - Detective 20. unbreak 21. aggie 22. Dark_Sage - Town Drunk 23. Goose - Townie 24. O.o 25. QUEEN ZOE - Lawyer 26. Torrent 27. acegunner 28. gammelonkel 29. Clapon 30. Duck Duck Pwn - Martyr THE SLIGHTLY LESS NEW BUT STILL AWESOME REGIME: Hello! Welcome to Altitude Mafia 6.0, brought to you by sunshineduck, mikesol, and Smushface. First things first: PLEASE put information in your profile. You have 24 hours from this post to do so, after that your info will be recorded into a Google document just like last game. Role PM's will be sent out shortly.

ROLES:
All roles will be randomized. Roles used in this game are listed here Regular Town Roles- Townie: Your goal is to bring the Mafia to justice! You have no special powers, only the ability to vote during the day. Miller: You are a regular Townie with one exception: if you are ever investigated by a Detective, your role will be identified as Mafia. You will be told you are a normal Townie in the role PM at the start of the game. Upon your death you will be revealed as the Miller. Blue Town Roles- Veteran: You have two night lives instead of one. This means it takes two successful attacks to kill you, or one hit on two separate nights. If you incur a lost life you will be informed of it through PM the following day. If you are lynched you die regardless of whether you have any extra night lives remaining. Vigilante: You may kill 2 people of your choice during the night. If your hit overlaps with a Mafia attack, you will be notified that it was canceled and you may use it again. In the case of overlapping Vigilante hits, only the first one sent to me will go through, and all others will be notified of their cancellation and can be used again at another time. In both cases you will not know what caused your hit to be stopped. You cannot use both kills in one night, and clues referring to you will be posted after successful hits. You may use your powers starting on night 2. Detective: You have three abilities you may use- 1)You may ask me if a certain clue points to a specific person and receive a Yes or No answer. 2)The power to investigate a person of your choice to uncover what role they have. (Limited to 3 uses per game) 3)You can ask me how many Mafia voted to lynch or not lynch a specific person. (Limited to 3 uses per game) You can only use 1 ability per day/night cycle. Medic: You have the ability to protect a player of your choice from a night hit. A player under your protection can only die if the number of people attacking him outnumber the amount of people protecting him and his night lives. If you are protecting a Veteran and they are attacked, your power supersedes theirs. If you successfully protect someone from an attack, only you and the person you saved will know about it. You cannot protect yourself. Cop: You are the defender of justice - the leg upon which this town will lean. You have the ability to investigate any one player during the night phase, in the morning that person will be revealed to be either sided with the town or with the mafia. This power has unlimited uses, but can only be used once per night. Tracker: You can target one person each night and follow them. If the targeted player visits someone during that night, you will know the name of that person the following day. You may use this ability up to 3 times. Hunter: You are a country hick trapped in the big city. You carry a shotgun with you everywhere you go, and if you are lynched during the day you can choose one person to shoot and kill before the phase change to night. Your power will not work if you are killed without being lynched. Martyr: You can sacrifice your life to save the life of another player of your choice. You may change your selection at any time during the game. Once you select a person to save, they are protected from any night kill against them at any point in the game. If a Medic is watching over you or the target you wish to save, your power overrides it. You are unable to save anyone from getting lynched during the day. If you successfully save someone they will be notified through a PM. Oracle: You have the ability to select a person during any night phase of the game. If you die for any reason, the player you picked will have their role revealed to everyone. You can only pick 1 person to have this happen to, and can change your selection during any night phase. If the player you picked has had their identity hidden from the Mafia Janitor, their role won't be revealed. Silencer: You are a friend of the Mafia and wish to join them. You have the ability to silence a player of your choice for any day/night cycle starting after the 2nd night. Anyone you silence cannot post in the Mafia thread, or discuss anything Mafia related through PM’s, mumble, or in-game on Altitude. If caught doing so you will be mod-killed immediately. If you are silenced you may still vote on people to lynch, but you have to send it to me through PM instead. You may silence someone up to 5 times per game, and anyone silenced will be announced as such in the thread. You will be able to join the Mafia if you manage to figure out half of their members, or if the Stalker recruits you. Town Drunk: You are a raging alcoholic who regularly skips his AA meetings. You can choose one person during every night to make drunk, any night actions performed by that person will not go through. Mafia Roles- Mafia Goon: Your goal is to eliminate everyone in the town! You know who all your Mafia buddies are, and each night you communicate with one another to select people to kill. Lawyer: You can choose one player during the night phase, that person will show up as innocent to the cop and as a townie to the detective if rolechecked. This power has unlimited uses. Stalker: You have the ability to select any player in the game during the night phase. You will learn that player's role during the phase change to the next day. You can only use this ability twice per game. You also act as the de facto leader of the mafia, and will recruit the Silencer just like the Godfather did in previous games. Janitor: You can clean up the dead body of anyone killed during the night, leaving their role as a mystery to all. If your janitor target is saved by the doc, you will be notified the next day and you will retain your power. You can only use this ability once per game. 3rd Party Roles- Amnesiac: You are the last remaining survivor of the nuclear blast that took down the mighty city of Altitudetropolis. You emerge from your bunker fifty years later to find another war between the mafia and the townies, and that you have no affiliation to either side. The radiation from the blast has left you with amazing psychic powers, allowing you to sever your soul from your body and conjoin with any other body - the only problem is that the body you are trying to control must be unoccupied. This essentially allows you to take over the role of any player in the graveyard, which will not be announced in the thread. Which side will you choose?

GENERAL GAME RULES:
Voting- 1) You must post your vote in this thread. Do not PM it to me, (unless you are silenced) or tell me in-game. 2) You must clearly declare your vote. (ie: 'I vote for X') 3) You cannot auto-change your vote to the losing or winning bandwagon. 4) You cannot vote for yourself, anyone dead, or anyone outside the game. 5) In the event of a tie, the person who received the most votes first will be lynched. 6) You may abstain, but must let me know. (ie: 'I abstain from voting') ONE PERSON MUST BE LYNCHED EVERY DAY! Cheating- 1) Posting after death: If you die in the game you are permitted 1 goodbye post, but it must not contain any information relating to Altitude Mafia: Version 5.0 2) Betraying your role and ruining the game for everyone else by doing something like posting the Mafia member list in the thread when you were chosen as Mafia. 3) Logging on to someone else's account / checking their PM's / looking over someone's shoulder to get their role. 4) Posting screenshots of your inbox. This is not a photoshop competition. 5) Posting any PM you receive from me. 6) Sending messages through a third party not playing the game. 7) You must not request, submit, or share any non-verbal, non-game-themed proof of role with anyone for any reason. If you violate the spirit of this rule, you will be mod-killed. If you think somebody violated the spirit of this rule, report it immediately. Legit examples of game-themed verbal proof: (note communications can occur via speech in real-life or online, or via text message on your phone, forum private message, skype, etc): "Trust me I'm the medic. I will protect you tonight to prove it." "I am detective. I just investigated you and know your role is veteran. Who else do you trust?" "I am green townie, why would I lie to you?" Examples of cheating: "What time did you receive your PM?" (exploits limitations of forum technology, not verbal game-themed communication) "Forward me your role PM to prove your role." "Send me a screenshot to prove your role." *Any screenshot or record of digital communication. For example: taking a screenshot of an Altitude in-game chat in which person X claimed his role was Y and sending it to Z. You can use normal, everyday language to relay this information "Hey Z, X told me he is Y on Altitude yesterday" but you can't show a screenshot or copy-paste an Altitude log entry (with annoying-to-manipulate formatting that lends "authenticity"), to "prove" it. Modkills- Inactivity is most easily defined as failure to vote. If you do miss 2 days of votes, you will be modkilled regardless of role. Special consideration will be exercised if a player in danger of being modkilled by this manner has been an active contributor in the thread. If something comes up and you know you will miss the vote, PM me in advance to let me know and you will be spared. Furthermore, you must post at least once in this thread to avoid being modkilled. Simply voting doesn't work. This is to prevent lurkers. In addition, I reserve the right to modkill anyone I suspect of cheating and anyone modkilled in this game will be permabanned from future games I may host. Please keep that in mind. Clues- Every day post will tell a story describing the deaths of your murdered Townies. These stories will leave behind clues pointing towards the Mafia members. Clues will be created from anything in your forum profile and username (NOTE: I will only allude to your forum username, not the name you are known under in Altitude in case they are different). Google.com will be used as a reference in helping devise clues. PLEASE INCORPORATE SOME INFORMATION IN YOUR PROFILE IF IT IS BLANK (QUOTES/INTERESTS/LIFE GOALS/FAVORITE TAYLOR SWIFT SONG/ETC..). ANYTHING WILL HELP IN ENSURING HIGH QUALITY CLUES. AS ALWAYS, NO PERSONAL DETAILS ABOUT YOU WILL BE USED, UNLESS STATED IN YOUR PROFILE. Credits- Roles are based off past games from G00SE, Kuja900 and Loli.ta, as well as the teamliquid.net forums and epicmafia.com. Special thanks to mikesol and Smushface for helping me with the clues this time around. WIN CONDITIONS: Town: Wins if all Mafia are eliminated. Mafia: Wins if they outnumber all Town-aligned players. Also wins if there is only 1 Town aligned player and 1 Mafia left alive. MAFIA KILLING POWER: This is determined by a simple formula: # of Mafia / 2 The end result is rounded up to calculate killing power. PROFILE INFORMATION: The official list of profile information I will be using to create clues is listed HERE Last edited by sunshineduck; 12-02-2010 at 03:08 AM.

Hai thar -
So clues will be entirely different from any of the previous games. No longer will you be opening up google and looking at the first image or the first hit. You can't just type in someone's name and expect to find the answer. Smushface and I will be working tirelessly to develop cheesy riddles of varying difficulty levels for this game. In an effort to give the town a better chance with our obscure clues we provide two riddles that you can use in order to get a feel for how we work. Clues can relate to a person in any number of ways (their name, their location, their work, etc). Riddle about Smushface: Which of these is not like the other and why? Camera, Music, Script, Firing Squad Answer: The odd word out is SCRIPT because the other three words work in the phrase "face the ---". Script starts with an s and when you put that together with "Face the" - you get sface (i.e. smush face). Riddle about Mikesol: Where oh where did killer'n'victim mix? In this death and life game. When the One meets the Six. Cried the one with the name. Answer: Where oh where refers to the location (i.e. look at the location in their profile). The second line refers to the game of mafia. The third line highlights the numbers One and Six. The last line the big thing is the name. If you look at mikesol the first and sixth letter are MO - referring to the fact I'm from Missouri. Note: These clues are clearly hard. We will be drafting a range of clues ranging from hard to easy based on game progression. The first few days will contain harder clues and get steadily easier as the game progresses. Questions? Comments? Post here and we'll take them into consideration. Thanks! ~Mike and Smush

So clues will be in the form of riddles?
/skeptical Also, why not make riddles start easy and get harder as the game goes on? It'd make sense to make clues harder as mafia killing power gets lower and lower. (Please tell me the actual riddles will be easier than the examples ._.)

Man, I can't wait for this to get started up ^^. I thoroughly enjoy a good game of mafia, and I expect this will be no different.
As for the clues as riddles, I would not be opposed to that. I think that clues should serve as tools to guide the finger of suspicion and then to decide on a lynch based on the convergence of both factors. If you think that riddles can accomplish that, then that's awesome and I'm totally for it. I don't want solutions to these to be black and white either; as long as there's leeway to misinterpret clues but yet still remain quite solvable, I am for it. FR THE VILLAGE! YEAH

I love the riddles idea, but
I would never ever, under any circumstance and given infinite time, solve those two  edit: perhaps the first one with infinite time...

I like this because you can take the clues away with you to work them out, rather than sit at the computer googling ****.
This means I can sit at work with it written down, and hopefully work it out there (because I don't DO any real work after 5pm anyway) The Mikesol one is just a mind**** though....

Im veteran, anyone want to CC if not PM me all your roles so I can organise the defence.
Only 1 vet so if I am un-counter claimed then I can lead town and start outing double roles. More importantly, no reason for Vet to want to hide as him taking shots is good for the town.

In terms of changing the difficulty of clues, Mike and I have a pretty good sense of the pacing of these games after playing / observing a few. That being said, clues will never be too easy to solve. We do have a few people working quality control just to make sure that the clues aren't skewed too far in either direction. Also, we all know that clues are only 1 of several ways of finding out people's identities, so I wouldn't fret too much. We're also going to try to prevent as much personal bias in the clue-making as much as possible, but just to put everyone on even footing, here's some quick info about us. We are: -American college seniors (different schools). -We both currently reside in Missouri. -Mike's a CS major, I'm a history / legal studies major.

No. The veteran is duck duck pwn. All claim to him or be cast under immediate suspicion.
Yeah. You just got CCed, half the game. What now???
