    Newt told me to post on the thread instead of playing with the dice bot. Should I listen to him?

    As the winner of Season 3, it is only appropriate that I, Gorgeous Girl Genius, should become mayor! I will lead you all to the finest of victories the likes of which Reborn Mafia has never seen before! Okay, but in all seriousness, you guys don't have to.

    Wow! We have a rebel amongst our troop. Go get 'em, boys! [eliminate] Aldo. This is a joke please don't hurt me.
  5. cicada
    [elect] Nicki. Newtsie didn't say we couldn't vote to elect ourselves. Let's just say I'm merely testing the waters.
  6. cicada
    Yes, I'm sorry to say that I have deceived you guys all along. You were expecting Nicki, but it was me, DIO!

    DAY THREE. The Survivors continued down the desolate path. As expected, it was empty. The fact that it was getting darker outside didn’t really help. They turned their flashlights on and made their way through, not realising that someone -- something invisible -- was following them. It was noting their every move, probably keeping an eye on other things. What was that something? Let’s just say Coach was watching from his screen. Perhaps Rochelle was with him, who knows? It's Rochelle, does anyone even care? They won’t respawn anytime soon, hohoho. This campaign was in Realism mode, after all... The Director was also watching. He noted that it was time for something fun. Something that would make the game interesting. He decided to make a crescendo event happen. That was sure to get the Survivors in gear. He started spawning waves and waves of hordes. All of them groaned and yelled as they rapidly approached the Survivors. “We need to get to higher ground!” Zoey, trying to take leadership, yelled. Perhaps she was trying to make sure her voice didn’t get drowned out. It was almost like they’d gone to see a metal band in a concert. That’s how loud it was right now. The boys followed her instruction, albeit Nick was far from entertained by the idea. In what seemed like a rapid blur, acid shot out from seemingly nowhere. “GOO INBOUND!” “MOVE!” “What is this green shit?” The Survivors had to temporarily move out of the way, setting a decent amount of distance between the three of them, to completely avoid the acid. Luckily, it didn’t do any damage to the Survivors, but some Infected weren’t so lucky… The Director got bored and decided to despawn the Spitter, but he had plans on making her return much, much later, I’m sure. A singular patch of acid was found beneath her feet. At least this problem wouldn’t hinder the Survivors… for now. What happened next would depend solely on all of the Players…Just who would emerge victorious? Perhaps the Survivors would get wiped out, or maybe they would find the escape vehicle. It was still far too soon to tell, but everyone was running out of endurance. The Survivors were visibly getting tired and worn out, but the Infected were beginning to get bored. We’ll figure out soon enough. The sound of rhythmic tapping could be heard from somewhere in the distance... Alistair has properly died! He was the Spitter. Lykos has properly died! He was a Common Infected. It is now Day 3. You have around 48 hours to do Day things. Night 3 will begin by 2:30PM GMT, the earliest, on Wednesday.

    DAY TWO - END. After leaving the small section with the stores, the survivors carried on forwards. They reached a forked path, one that was the stereotypical “bright” path that contained streetlamps and a living, healthy environment. The other path was desolate, save for the few corpses scattered across, and dark. Very dark. “I think I like the look of the brighter path, what do you guys think?” Ellis tried joking to keep high spirits. Nick just playfully flicked Ellis on the nose. “Obviously, we’re going down the dark path. Don’t you know anything, Ellis?” After imitating the younger man’s accent, he pauses. “The dark places in games usually hold the most secrets and are usually more helpful in the long run.” He started walking down the dark path. A group of infected suddenly appeared. The survivors didn’t really have the time, nor patience, to deal with them. After shooting one of the CEDA zombies, the survivors noticed that one of them had dropped some Boomer Bile, obviously CEDA was trying to do research on the Boomer’s puke before they turned. “Hey, what’s this?” “Dunno, sweet cheeks. Try throwing it.” They picked up the puke bomb and yeeted it behind them. It had exploded on one of the infected a little behind them. All of the zombies launched themselves onto this individual. It smelt really nice, to the zombies at least. It wouldn’t hurt to have a little nibble, right…? Blood and guts flew everywhere as the zombies devoured the one covered in puke. This bomb gave the survivors some time to escape. It was handy. Zoey made a mental note not to forget this little detail. She’d be telling Francis and Louis about it after all. They’d love to hear about this puke bomb. She found it interesting, too. It was like a pipe bomb, but better! She giggled to herself, keeping an eye out for more of this strange item. She’d be sure to snag some more later on! AL has been lynched! He was the Uncommon Infected. It is now Night 2. You have 24 hours to send in your Night Actions (or tell me that you're abstaining).

    Sorry for only getting back to this now, but that is half correct. The clean applies for that night phase only. If the person they clean is not killed, nothing happens and their clean is wasted.

    DAY TWO. On the other side of town, the rest of the Survivors made their way into a small part of the area. There were some small stores, like clothing stores, food stores and electronics stores, all left abandoned. They were pretty much dark, with no sign of actual life in them. They were still full of Common Infected, just idly walking by. Luckily for the Survivors, the zombies hadn’t noticed them. They were able to walk into the stores to look for supplies they needed. Things that would last. Things that would keep them alive; things that would help them on their journey to New Orleans. They were super excited, since it’d been a long time since they’d found anything vital. Their euphoria was interrupted by the sound of enticing crying. This could only mean one thing. “We’d best take what we’ve found and get out, there’s a Witch in here.” Zoey whispered to the other two before picking up some chocolate and sweets and shoving them in her pockets. She sighed, knowing this was wrong. But she also knew that it didn’t matter. Most of the cops have already turned. Nick picked up some cigarettes and alcohol from a nearby store. He shoved them in his suit pockets. He’s done this before, plenty of times actually. He didn’t need to worry about getting caught - he already managed to cheat poker. Why would this be any different? He smirked. Ellis was just doing Ellis things: trying to talk about the time he and his buddy, Keith, almost robbed a bank. His stories were always full of it. No one even knew if Keith even existed, or if he was just as made up as his stories were. Zoey and Nick just let him talk about his stories, without paying attention at all. They didn’t need to care, they just needed to pretend they did. His stories were almost endearing, they didn’t want to ruin that. The Survivors grabbed everything they could, even some pills and first-aid from a local pharmacy they had managed to find. Those were the important things. Heck, even the alcohol Nick had grabbed earlier would do. They could use something to make molotovs with. He’d already had some lighters, and finding cloth would’ve been easy in this kind of environment. There was a lone Smoker waiting for them, on top of the pharmacy’s building so he was out of the way. He waited for the last one to come out, so he could grab them… except that didn’t go to plan. ‘Thwwwwwwap’. The sound of his tongue could be heard. He had come into contact with someone, but whether it was a Survivor or not was uncertain. His slippery tongue definitely wrapped itself around something. But who or what that was just wasn’t clear. They were coincidentally enveloped, mostly from darkness but also the Smoker’s tongue. The Smoker knew what he’d come into contact with, but he could not reveal - because he could not talk. He just grunted, a little bit annoyed. That was when Nick saw the Smoker’s tongue. “Hey!” He glared at the Smoker. “I’ve got this one. There’s no way in Hell I’ll let you any closer to us. Not now, and not ever.” He lifts up his assault rifle, pointing it at the Smoker’s head. “See you on the other side, you bastard.” BANG. The Smoker’s tongue instantly dropped onto the ground. The Smoker let out a poof of smoke and other nasty crap as he exploded from the bullets’ impact. Whatever was in the Smoker’s grasp was released, and it ran off into the distance. Back where Coach was, a group of zombies had located both the Hunter and Coach’s bodies… they decided it was about time they had their fair share of brains. Nom. Nick Crash has officially died! He was the Smoker. It is now Day Two. You have 48 hours to discuss and vote. Night Two begins at around 12:30-1:00PM GMT on Sunday. Make sure to meet all post requirements! Zombies 1. Bok 2. Aldo 3.

    DAY ONE - END. Coach fell asleep, still clinging onto his gun. It was getting tiring for him; he was in his 40’s and he had to run from one safe room to the next without stopping. He was the group’s leader, so he made it his obligatory job to protect everyone else -- even if they didn’t need it. Everything was too much. He had failed his best friend, Rochelle. He didn’t want to fail everyone else. But falling asleep there was his final, and worst, mistake. He slipped into a very pleasant dream - one that was, perhaps, very unfitting and undeserved during the zombie apocalypse. He heard a very familiar voice, faintly. She was calling his name, over and over… and over… and over. After each word, the voice grew louder and stronger. Eventually, he realised whose voice it was. It belonged to Rochelle. But it couldn’t have been… she died, didn’t she? A Witch caught her off guard whilst she wasn’t looking. This wasn’t real. Rochelle began to walk closer to Coach. “Ro…? Aren’t you--” Coach began to speak, but Rochelle placed a finger on his lips. “Yep. Looks like you will be as well in a few minutes.” She grabbed his arm and helped pull him up. “Pretty cool, huh? I’ve been trying to reach out to you since I died, but obviously I had no luck. Until now, at least.” She laughed, but Coach didn’t seem amused. “What’s happening? What’s happening to me?” His question went unanswered, but he didn’t push her. He started to feel pain in his chest, gradually getting worse by the second. “It’s happening, Coach. You can stop fighting for the others now. Come with me. We’re safe here.” Coach began collapsing, shaking his head at Rochelle’s words. “I can’t. Not yet. I have to make sure Nick and Ellis get to New Orleans…” His chest kept tightening as his heart succumbed to the pressure. Existing was painful now. His heart was gradually slowing down. He couldn’t do anything about it. “Coach… I know. I know you want to keep them safe. But you can’t do anything about it. What’s happening to you here… you’re also experiencing it in the real world. That’s it…” Rochelle placed a comforting hand on Coach’s shoulder. They heard a growl coming from the front of the alleyway. It was a dark, hooded figure. He slowly approached Coach and Rochelle. Since this was a dream world, Rochelle knew instantly that he was there. She looked at Coach, and the two of them exchanged smirks. “Want to do one last thing?” She asked, and instantly he nodded. It was painful, but he lifted his gun and shot the figure right in the head. Everything from then went black. In the real world, Coach’s body had slumped over. His face was stained with tears, but he had a slight smile. His heart was no longer beating, and it soon became obvious that he died in his sleep. Coach and Rochelle had finally been reunited. Surprisingly, next to Coach’s body was the hooded figure that appeared in his dream. There was a small pool of blood around both Coach and the hooded figure, who was revealed to be the Hunter upon close inspection. The Hunter had a single bullet wound in his head. Bean has been lynched! He was Coach. Kiet was properly killed. He was the Hunter. (Featuring Mimi as Rochelle.) It is now Night 1. You have 24 hours to send in your Night Actions (or to tell me you're abstaining). Day 2 begins at around 12:30PM GMT on Friday. Zombies 1. Bok 2. Aldo 3. Drago 4. Astra 5. Boat 6. Lía 7. AL 8.

    BANG! You hear the sound of squealing as one of the zombies loses control and runs to attack a figure standing close to him. The screaming banshee sounds were from Nano, that much was obvious. He couldn't control himself and ran head first into a wall, colliding instantly. His brains splattered across the wall and its surrounding area. Unfortunately, his attack didn't go to plan. The infected ran to the scene, attracted by the noise. What they found in front of them wasn't what they were exactly expecting or hoping for... Oh well, free brains, right? Nano's properly dead corpse was discovered. He was a Common Infected. Zombies 1. Bok 2. Aldo 3. Drago 4. Astra 5. Boat 6. Lía 7. AL 8. Bean 9. Amine 10. Seal 11. Lykos 12. Nick 13: Ali 14.

    YOUR NOT-SO-MIDDAY-BUT-I'LL-DO-IT-ANYWAYS MIDDAY POST: I kinda forgot to post this 8 hours ago due to life, but here's an unofficial 'midday' post. Y'all have just under a day left to vote. Please make sure you all meet post requirements and vote someone. You are required to vote to lynch someone every day, even on Day 1. If the phase ended now, 3 people would not have met post requirements and a bunch of you wouldn't have voted either. You still have about 16 hours left to vote and meet your requirements, if I'm not mistaken. In regards to the question I was asked before about guns, I have decided that guns can be discarded and replaced if not used. More specifically, if the player receiving a gun already has one, they are free to choose which gun (the new or the old one) to discard. They will not be told anything other than the fact they have received a gun, and can then choose from there which gun to discard. They will also not be told whether the gun they discarded was real or fake. As normal, if the player does not have a gun, they will simply just be told that they received a gun. Enjoy the rest of your day phase, folks!

    I am going to destroy everything you love.

    The rest of the Mafia does not know who their Sniper is, and the Sniper does not know the identity of the rest of the Mafia.
  17. cicada
    That is correct. Most of the roles, unless stated otherwise, usually go by the EpicMafia description. I kinda forgot to include that in the flavour text since I assumed everyone was familiar with Sniper anyway. My bad. Coach, or the Sniper, is not in the Mafia chat.
  18. cicada
    Role priority is sort of confusing to deal with. Ali's right; I didn't think it would make sense for the Doctor to heal before the attack in this sense. It also doesn't contradict the flavour text I wrote for the Charger.
  19. cicada
    Nothing, since guns do not stack. I'd have to have a think about whether or not the guns get discarded and replaced, but I'll get back to everyone regarding that.

    DAY ONE The Survivors, bar Coach, decided to leave the Witch alone for now, figuring they weren’t quite ready to deal with her. They snook past her with their flashlights out. Without even looking at her. As they were passing by, they didn't even acknowledge her existence. She didn't even seem to notice they were there anyway, so why bother? She was too busy crying to care. Some of the Infected were watching the bigger group of Survivors from afar, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Some of the Infected were running around the place trying to cause their own kind of chaos. It was cute, really. They knew when to strike, but the opportunity had not yet revealed itself. The Tank had somehow lost Coach. He didn't understand, nor know, how, or even why, but he lost him. He temporarily gave up on his chase, deciding to go back the way he came. He was looking for his Infected friends. Why wouldn't he? The Tank needed backup after all! Realising that he was safe, for now, Coach ran out of his hiding place, treading cautiously to avoid potential dangers. He decided to chill for a little bit, camping in a dark alleyway. He had his gun out, ready to potentially shoot. He probably wasn't going to use it, but it was better to be safe than sorry after all. He wasn't really in a rush to find the rest of the group, after all. They couldn't be too far ahead or behind. There'd probably be some kind of split path which would eventually bring them back together... but no one knew where this supposed 'split path' even was, or if there even was one. It would only be a matter of time. Coach decided to stay optimistic for this 'split path' that may not even exist. "I’m getting too old for this." Coach furrowed his eyebrows and groaned as he slumped down in the corner of the dark alleyway. "Just a small rest..." He yawned and stretched before placing his trusty sniper rifle next to him, holding it with his right hand. "...should be fine." It is now Day 1. You have 48 hours to discuss and vote for your targets. No one died during the night. Night 1 begins at around 12:30PM GMT on Thursday. Zombies 1. Bok 2. Aldo 3. Drago 4. Astra 5. Boat 6. Lía 7.

    NIGHT ZERO The ground rumbled even more vigorously than before. The tremors were getting louder and stronger with each passing second. The grunts and groans of what sounded like a gorilla on steroids could be heard, and then the Tank came into view. "Ah, shit... Tank!" Coach yelled, seemingly into thin air. "No shit, Sherlock." Nick sarcastically responded, wiping the sweat forming above his eyebrows. The group started running to get a better cover point in hopes the Tank didn't corner any of them. If that happened, it was game over. Something the Survivors did not want to happen at any cost. They just had to get to New Orleans, no matter what. Instead of causing confusion and panic, the Tank directly focused himself onto Coach, and began to follow him, causing him to split from the group. "Just keep running, friends. We’ll find each other soon. Stay safe; stay alive." With that, Coach ran into the shadows, with the Tank in hot pursuit. A perfect scenario for the whole Infected team... to have the Survivors separate. Despite feeling worried for Coach, the rest of the group decided to move forwards into the night. It wasn't the first time the group got separated, even with Zoey replacing the recently deceased Rochelle, but it wouldn't be the last time either. All they could do was plow on and hope to meet up with Coach later. So, that's what they did. They looked into some rooms for supplies, hoping to get some pills... perhaps snacks, water... a first-aid kit maybe? The night was quiet, save for a few groans from scattered Common Infected and the banter that the group provided. That was until the group grew closer to the weeping. Zoey pressed a finger to her lips, which instructed Nick and Ellis to be quiet. With a soft tone to her whisper, the words, "That sounds like a Witch..." were spoken. Everyone immediately turned their flashlights off. It is now Night Zero. You have 24 hours to send in night actions. Day One begins at around 9:00AM GMT on Tuesday. Send me your Night Actions if you haven't already. Zombies 1. Bok 2. Aldo 3. Drago 4. Astra 5. Boat 6. Lía 7. AL 8. Bean 9. Amine 10. Seal 11. Lykos 12. Nick 13. Ali 14. Nano 15. Newt 16. Arch 17.

    *Also a big honourable mention to Nicki for trying to help town and getting shot point blank in the face by the person she gave the gun to. Incredible game, thanks for playing lads! Also thanks for hosting such a fun game. It was fun seeing everything after dying, hehe.

    Left 4 Dead Mafia: You do not need to have played, nor have any knowledge of, the Left 4 Dead series to play this game. The general goal for this game is for the Survivors (Mafia faction) to eliminate/wipe out the Infected (Town faction), and vice versa for the Infected. There are no third party roles in the setup this time around, but the general player count can accommodate as little as 15 people and a maximum of 18. The Survivors need to equal or outnumber the Infected to win, and the Infected need to eliminate every Survivor. This game starts on Night 0. What is Mafia? (Credits to Dive!)
