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. During the Night, the moderator "wakes up" the mafia, and they silently choose a victim.

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. | ||

A Role Cop, or Scout, is a role capable of learning another player's role. A Role Cop will be able to learn what abilities a player has. A Role Cop learns no information about a player's alignment. ([[Vanilla Townie]]s and [[Mafia Goon]]s will show up as [[Vanilla]])<br /> | |||
Role Cops are traditionally a Mafia-aligned role, but the Town can make great use of Role Cops, especially in certain [[Normal]] setups with town-only roles.<br /> | |||
If you want a newbie friendly investigative role, why not consider the Role Cop?<br /> | |||

IC Basic is a simple setup intended for new players with an [[Inexperience Challenged]] mechanic baked into the setup.<br /> | |||
The Town IC role is given to a random player who is willing to take on the role of IC. Everyone is informed who the IC is, which confirms that player as a [[Town]] player with a [[Mason]] PT.<br /> | |||
The other [[Mason]] has the ability to protect a player from a single kill that can't be used on consecutive nights, to make sure the IC doesn't die too quickly.<br /> | |||
If you like coaching new players, this is the setup for you! | |||
