It was as if your very SOUL was glowing...

IT'S A TOWN VICTORY!

Mafia: Wylted/Shining, Ultracrepidarian

Town: ILikePie5, Mikal, Lunatic, whiteflame, RexFavilla, Thoth, McDonaldsReal, RationalTheist

Commentary:

So, that went well for the town. In large part, this was due to a really inactive mafia. Wylted scarcely had any presence at all this game. He was on briefly during DP1 and then vanished completely, both from the public thread and from mafia chat. Shining subbed in, but tbh, that did very little to improve activity. I can hardly imagine scum chat being much more of a ghost town than it already was. There was hardly any discussion of potential fakeclaims or what other players might be. In fact, during NP3, Shining had to submit for Owen just before the deadline. He chose to kill Mikal, but somehow forgot that he had already claimed, so he ended up waiving Anticlaim, allowing the NK to be blocked by Luna. Though, at that point the Mafia was already in a tough situation anyway.

I knew this game would be pretty swingy even before I started it, and it ended up swinging pretty hard toward the town, though that's partially because the scum team let it happen that way. Going into NP2, I think the scum team had a really decent chance of winning. Mikal looked sus, moreso than Shining, and there was even room to push a potential WF/RT team. DP3 is where everything fell apart for the scum team, however.

As far as balance goes, I think this game may have been a bit more townsided than I realized at first. There were several ways for the town to get information, but there was also room for counterplay. I think the Mafia JOAT was pretty strong, and Ultra would have been hard to investigate/interfere with. The Caroler was helpful, but also could have ended up targeting scum, and the list of town players it could theoretically sing to was fairly narrow. Plus, even the town Jailkeeper could have interfered with that. If the mafia had decided to kill RT instead of Pie during NP1, this would have been a very different game. I'm open to thoughts and constructive criticism regarding the balance, tho.

Town MVP goes to Whiteflame for getting not one, but TWO carols successfully sent out, which was extremely helpful to the town, even if Rex didn't even see the carol sent to him until after the game was over, lol. Also, I would like to compliment our new player, McDonaldsReal! You did fantastic for your first game on here! Certainly much better than I did in mine. Also, I just want to say that I saw your softclaim during DP1, and it was perfect. No one else seemed to catch it since no one else was nearly as familiar with the theme, but that ended up being a good thing since it led to a CC.

In the end, I hope everyone was able to have some fun with this one. GG!

Welcome to DP3 of Deltarune Mafia! This DP will last 72 hours and will end on Wednesday the 20th at 11:15 AM EDT.

Deceased Players:

1. ILikePie5 - Died NP1 - Queen - 2x Follower
2. Thoth - Lynched DP2 - You are C. Round/K. Round! "K. Round practiced self-care!" C. Round is a lowly little checker in the Card Kingdom who is instantly and inevitably defeated after a single turn in battle. However, upon reaching the end of the Great Board, it is crowned and turns into the mighty K. Round, able to endlessly heal itself. K. Round cannot be defeated through fighting and can only be defeated by getting the crown to fall from its head. You can become immune to fighting as well. You are the 1x Bulletproof. One night per game, you may choose to put on a crown, making you immune to lethal actions during that night (this does not count as an action). However, because the uncrowned C. Round is so weak and cannot win a battle, on every other night, you cannot be protected from lethal actions by any other roles. You win with the Town.
3. whiteflame - Died NP2 - You are Ralsei! "This is a world where we don't have to fight. I know if we try, we can all find another way..." Ralsei is the Prince of Castle Town and the healer of the party. As the first person that Kris and Susie are properly introduced to in the dark world, Ralsei explains the ancient prophecy of the three heroes who appear to seal the dark fountains and save the world from eternal night, with Ralsei himself being one of the three. In battle, Ralsei is the healer, able to cast healing spells as well as pacify tired enemies. At times, he can even sing to enemies to help put them to sleep. Therefore, you are the Caroler. Once per night, you may target any other player. They will receive three randomly chosen names, at least one of which will be Mafia-aligned. However, if your target uses (or attempts to use) any night action, they will not be at home to hear your song and thus will not receive any names. You may not attempt to target the same player two nights in a row. You win with the Town.

A computer who tries to make everyone into one of her peons, Queen tries to capture the lightners throughout the cyber world. After finally capturing them successfully, she uses information from their search histories to fill their cells with items she naively believes will keep them content and not want to leave. You may also look at other player's histories. You are the 2x Follower. Two nights per game, you may target any other player to see what category of action they use, if any (informational, protective, killing, etc.). You win with the Town.

...There's a light inside your soul

Welcome to Deltarune Mafia! As is usual, day phases will last 72 hours or until a majority vote is reached. Night phases will last up to 24 hours. If everyone submits their night action early, I may start the next phase early. (I will allow a grace period of at least one hour for players to change their minds.) This DP will end on Tuesday the 19th at 8:30 PM EDT (UTC -04:00).

Rules:

1. No copy-pasting any mod communications, including but not limited to role PMs, or pretending to do so. Paraphrase instead.
2. No use of generative AI to paraphrase your role PM for you.
3. Avoid discussion of minutiae in role PMs, such as whether one wins 'with Town' or 'with the Town'.
4. No editing or deleting posts.
5. No conversing about the game outside of the DP threads or any approved chats.
6. No liking posts after dying.
7. No ciphers or cryptography.
8. I reserve the right to add in additional rules as necessary to keep the game fair.

Additional Information:

1. This game is based off of the first two chapters of Deltarune. All characters in this game are characters that appear within the first two chapters of Deltarune.
2. There may or may not be mechanics in play which punish claiming characters and/or roles, so claim at your own risk!
3. The town wins when all threats to the town are eliminated. The mafia wins if, at the start or end of any game phase, the number of living mafia players is greater than or equal to the number of living non-mafia players. There may also be one or more third party players in the game, in which case they will have their own unique win conditions and may either joint win with another team or win independently.
4. Your role PM may refer to MYLO/LYLO. MYLO is when the number of living town players outnumbers the mafia by only two players; LYLO is when the town outnumbers the mafia by only one. (Third parties are counted with town for the purposes of determining parity and MYLO/LYLO.) Votes are locked in at LYLO, meaning that once a vote is cast on a LYLO day, it cannot be removed or changed to another player, so be careful! I will announce when a day is a MYLO/LYLO day.
5. I will not answer questions in-thread, except to give a time check or a vote count. Please direct all other questions to me over PM. Generally speaking, I will not answer questions about roles other than your own. This includes questions about hypothetical roles. Questions about 'flipped roles', on the other hand, are generally okay.

To help prevent angleshooting based on role PM formats, here is a sample role PM (using a character from Chapter 3, since those characters aren't in this game):

You are Tenna! "It's TV Time!" Tenna is the incarnation of the old Dreemurr household TV in the dark world. He serves as host of his own game show, 'TV Time', which the three party members play on. As a sentient TV, Tenna craves attention desperately and loves to be watched, endlessly prolonging the game show so that the lightners will keep playing with him. Because Tenna craves attention so badly, you can keep track of who interacts with you. You are the Gramps. At the end of each night, you will learn who, if anyone, used an action on you, but not what actions were used. You win with the Town.

When the light is running low

And the shadows start to grow

And the places that you know

Seem like fantasy...

(Recreating this one since my previous thread apparently got deleted. For the full experience, listen to this as you read slowly and dramatically)

Once upon a time, a LEGEND was whispered among forums.

It was a LEGEND of LIBERTY.

It was a LEGEND of ORDER.

It was a LEGEND of LEFT.

It was a LEGEND of RIGHT.

This is the legend of DEBATE CRAFT.

For millenia, LEFT and RIGHT have lived in balance,

Bringing order to the INTERNET.

But if this harmony were to shatter...

a terrible calamity would occur.

The website will crash with errors

And the users will leave with disappointment.

Then, her heart pounding...

DART will draw her final breath.

Only then, shining with hope...

Three HEROES appear at WORLDS' edge.

A CODER,

A MODERATOR,

And a PRESIDENT FROM DART.

Only they can create a new site

And ban the ADBOTS AND SPAMMERS.

Only then will balance be restored,

And the COMMUNITY saved from destruction.

Today, the DC FORUM-

The section that gives this place DISCUSSION -

Stands tall at the center of the kingdom.

But recently, another section has appeared on the horizon...

And with it, the balance of LEFT and RIGHT begins to shift...

Sign up here to play in Deltarune Mafia! This will be a 10 player game. I've had the idea for this game for a while now, even before the recent release of chapters 3 and 4. As such, this game is based entirely on chapters 1 and 2.

For those not in the know, Deltarune is an episodic RPG by Toby Fox and serves as a parallel to Undertale, using many of the same characters but in a different story. If you haven't played it yourself, you can play the first two chapters completely for free! I would highly recommend giving it a try.

Since email notifications aren't a thing here yet, I'll ping people on Discord.
