The above is a typical opening for the game called ''[[Game of Mafia|Mafia]]'' (Also known as "Werewolves of Miller's Hollow" or "Town of Salem"). The game can be played by an indeterminate group of people, each playing the role of either a murdering [[Mafia]] member or an innocent [[townie|townsperson]], along with a [[game moderator]]. At the beginning of the game, [[Night]] falls, and the Mafia family members become aware of each other (by communication from the moderator). They then choose a victim, and the moderator announces the [[death scene]].

The game of Mafia (in [[Meat World]]) is usually run with playing cards representing the possible [[roles]] in the game. The moderator secretly distributes the cards to the players, then has everyone put their head down/close their eyes.

'''MafiaScum''', however, is devoted to the online version of the game. The history of mafiascum.net can be traced back to a game moderated by [[mith]] in August 2000 on the [[Grey Labyrinth]], a puzzle website. Due to the success and growth of the game on the GL, mith started mafiascum.net as a dedicated forum in March 2002. [[Online Mafia]] has the potential for more strategy and subtlety because it removes most of the possibility for cheating and provides players with a chance to form suspicion based on logic and [[voting patterns]] instead of facial expression. It also has the potential for just as many (if not more) laughs, because the players can act however they like, no matter how shy they might be in real life. | '''MafiaScum''', however, is devoted to the online version of the game.

A Jack-of-all-trades has multiple [[1-shot]] abilities. It is an easy to understand way to add a role with multiple active abilities, so uniquely a Jack-of-all-trades is allowed in [[Regular Normal]] games while hybrid roles will make a Normal game a [[Complex Normal]].<br /> | |||
A Jack-of-all-trades can use a single ability each night. Each Jack-of-all-trades ability can be used once in the game.<br /> | |||
If you want to fit many roles on one player, why not make them a Jack-of-all-trades?<br /> | |||

While this setup might not be considered Mafia due to a 2:2 alignment ratio making the [[Town]] not technically a majority, this ultra small setup usually leads to a Final 3 [[ELo]] with a confirmed townie.<br /> | |||
The first Day's elimination will result in a mod-confirmed townie. If Town is eliminated, they are instead confirmed as Town and given a dayvig shot. If Mafia is eliminated, they must confirm a Town player's alignment.<br /> | |||
After Day 1, the game leads to Final 3 with a confirmed townie assuming a Townie hasn't died.<br /> | |||
If you like interesting Final 3 scenarios and ultra small setups, this is the setup for you! | |||
