Flavor

  • In Newbie Games, only Mafia flavor is allowed, and Role PMs should follow the standard set by the List Mod.
  • In Open, Mini Normal, and Large Normal games, flavor is allowed provided these rules are followed:
    • All flavor should be public; flavor is not allowed in Role PMs. Role names should be standard, or non-flavored if original.
    • Flavor should have no bearing on the game - it should be possible for a player to read only the role reveals posted with the death scene and gain all information needed to play. This information should be formatted to stand out from the flavor.
    • Flavor not based on Mafia must be entirely original. Games based on books, moves, video games, sports, real people, or any other source material are classified as Theme Games.

Setup

  • Closed Normal Games should satisfy the following rules:
  • The game should have at least one Mafia group (of at least two members). A second anti-town group can be given a separate Mafia family name, or can be a Werewolf group. There should be no more than two anti-town groups, and no more than one Serial Killer.
  • The game must contain at least one Vanilla Townie (allowed names include: Townie, Vanilla Townie, Innocent Townsperson, Citizen). A sample Role PM for the Vanilla Townie must be included in the rules post.
  • Mechanics which are explicitly Non-Normal include:
  • Roles which are explicitly Normal include: Cop (role PM must be worded in a way that leaves open the possibility of other roles affecting results, if such roles may exist in the game), Doctor, Vigilante, Roleblocker, Mason, Innocent Child, Jailkeeper, Tracker, Watcher, Gunsmith, Miller (self-aware), Bodyguard, Role Cop, Doublevoter, Hider, Neighbor, Serial Killer, Traitor, Mafia Godfather (Investigation Immune and/or Nightkill Immune), Mafia-aligned versions of above roles, Mafia Framer, Backup versions, X-shot versions, Even/Odd-night versions, Non-consecutive-night versions, Macho versions (can't be protected from nightkills), Weak versions (die if target Mafia).
  • Roles which are explicitly Non-Normal include: Non-Sane Cops, Ineffective versions of other roles.
  • New/variant roles may be included in limited number (no more than 1 in a Mini, 2 in a Large), and must be based on the usual game mechanics: Killing, Protecting, Investigating, Blocking, Voting.
  • Games which are otherwise Normal may still be more suited to a different Queue. For example, a game with a large number of Doctors may be better run as an Open Game (after review in the Open Discussion Thread) or as a "Hospital" Themed Game.
