Welcome to Epstein's Island Mafia.

Game Information

There are 7 town players and 2 mafia. There is a theme split, but you’ll need to figure out what it is.
I will announce when MYLO/LYLO has arrived, and votes will be permanent on MYLO/LYLO days. So no hammer baiting.
Scum have not been given fake claims, but I will allow them to ask about two characters and two roles to see if they are in the game.

Unique Mechanics

The town has seven days to eliminate the mafia. Day phases can be as long as you want, but the game will default to a mafia victory at this time in seven days (Tuesday, October 13, 2:00PM Eastern) unless the mafia have been eliminated before then. To go to the next day phase, you must lynch a player. You cannot vote to end the day phase without killing a player, the day phase just continues until someone is lynched.
To both town and mafia, specify your night actions before the day phase ends. That will usually be once I get home from work and see that a hammer has happened. You can specify as many conditions as you want, such as “target player X, unless player X is dead, target player Y, unless player X flips town, target player Z, and if all three are dead, do nothing.” I’d suggest having a long list of backup targets. Just be prepared for any surprises, because the next day phase will start as soon as this one ends, and if you have no possible actions locked in you’ll do nothing.

Rules

No copy-pasting full role PM
Do not edit or delete your posts
No cryptography
No voting multiple times in the same post or voting/unvoting in the same post
No liking/upvoting posts after you die
Votes and unvotes must be clear, no hiding it with small text or burying it in other text.

Remaining Players:

Helz
Kohai
Lunatic
Mag1cman
Magoroth
NoAhLeEcLaRk
Shining
whiteflame
Thoth

With 9 players remaining, it takes 5 votes to lynch. If you have any questions, please PM me. I will answer questions about your role and dead players’ roles, but not about hypothetical roles.

How does the night phase works? What prevents the mafia from stalling out the night phase to use up some of our seven days?

Im slightly confused. I asked pre-game if flavor was AI and was told no. Game starts and there is a theme split. I am inclined to think that split makes the flavor AI but I am not certain.

I am Ehud Barak. Kohai being Bill Clinton makes 2 world leaders. Could be something to poke around.

I suppose we can run the game as quickly or slowly as we want so long as we get it done by next week. Unfortunately this will create motive for Mafia players to lurk or skip through days using inactivity for cover to avoid a train and such. I am not sure how we can counter that depending on how much TPR we have available.

Standard opening this time around..

If I am a cop my N0 peek is RexFavilla.

The fact they were not immediately in the thread must mean they are busy in scum chat scheming in a high backed chair.

Why?

They were hosting a pizza party on the island but they only offered cheese pizza. While I do not particularly dislike cheese pizza sometimes you get a craving for something else ya know? I felt that was rude of the host so I did not bother showing up to their cheese pizza party.

Unless someone has paranoia of anti-claim flavor I suggest we just all out the stuff to begin with. I also suggest everyone posts a N0 peek.

We could. Although I could personally see that being added on either alignment so I do not see it as AI. Confirming it also risks a hammer if 2 people post a vote at the same time.

NoAhLeEcLaRk claiming quickly is interesting. I feel a player new to Mafia would be a little more reserved in revealing information that could get them killed if they rolled scum. But also they may have been sheeping Kohai's play.
