Mafia Round 53
RulesGuidelines
Basic guide instructing how to participate fairly in the confines of the game.
Spoiler:
— Do not attempt to participate with more than one username. This is grounds for permanent banning from any and all future games.
— No petitioning the GM for information about the roles of other players or attempting to influence the tasks of the moderator (asking for certain hints, etc).
— You may not quote, screenshot, or otherwise duplicate or showcase messages from the GM to prove your role, actions, or results to a fellow player. You may, of course, claim to be a role in the course of the game whether it is your genuine role or not.
— You may freely PM other players and speak without restriction in the main channel (apart from the GM rule mentioned above) while you are still alive. Please refrain from discussing any facet of an ongoing game with a living player after you have died to avoid influencing the course of the game.
— You may generate false quotes, edits, and messages from other players in text form, but may not do so with concern to correspondence with the GM. Screenshotting PMs from other players is prohibited--keep the game in the realm of text.

Detailed explanation of how the game works.
Spoiler:
Basic Gameplay
— To use an ability or vote, you must PM the order directly to the GM. Those submitted in the main channel do not count.
— You may provide the GM with a will to be presented at the time of your death (unless you are erased). A typical will usually summarizes a player's actions and intel they have gathered to that point, resulting in something along the lines of: "Will: I interrogated Conia and got Black Org on Night 1. I interrogated PhoenixTears on Night 2 and got Not Black Org." Your will, unless erased, will be provided by the GM after your death is announced (whether it be by lynching, APTX, or just a routine killing).
— The Black Org is expected and encouraged to consult with one another on who to kill during the night and possible lynch votes during the day. A private channel for the Black Org to discuss strategies is provided in every round by the GM.
— Every member of the Black Org must kill successfully before a member is allowed a second kill. The exceptions to this is if a member is unable to kill due to being arrested or lynched, in which case they are no longer factored in to the kill cycle. Once the cycle has been completed once, a new order may be decided.
— Every member of the Black Org may use an APTX assuming there are enough remaining. Unlike with the nightly kills, there is no restriction on how many may participate. Each member is limited to using just one APTX per day phase, however.
— The Black Org may kill or APTX a fellow member if they so wish.
— If Vermouth and Kid are in the same game and designate the same player for their disguise, they will both disguise as that same role and the targeted individual will receive a new role.
— Detective Boys, BFFs, and Lovers must not overlap.
— You may always send in a new order to replace your old one, assuming the phase has not yet ended.
— If multiple incompatible actions are submitted by a player, the last valid action prior to the countdown ending will be the one played. If no compatible actions are submitted, none will be entered.
— The Black Organization and the Detective Boys each have a rank system for orders.
Voting
— Everyone is allowed to vote during day phases, whether they be from the town or the Black Org. You may only not vote if you are dead, not in Japan (as a result of being a traveler), are arrested, or were hindered by an ability (such as Frighten).
— Each player's vote is made public at the end of each day phase unless Voice of Reason was used.
— If a player was poisoned by APTX or arrested, their vote for that phase will not count or be shown.
— Players may abstain from voting.
— If a lynch fails due to lynching a traveler or the one with the most votes being protected or Accompany saving the lynch target, votes will still be shown as usual, but there will be a note that the lynch failed.
— If, after Kazuha's Accompany has been taken into account, two players receive the same number of lynch votes in a phase, and one is APTXed or arrested, the other will be lynched.
— If a single person with the most lynch votes is either arrested or APTXed in the same phase, there will be no lynch.
Crimes
— If a crime is hindered by discombobulation or other ability, it is treated as having failed and thus not happening.
— List of abilities that constitute crimes: Killing (whether it be of the normal, sniping, or APTX variety), Disguising, Slandering, Bribing, Discombobulating, Abducting, Erasing, Frightening, Stealing. CHOOSING COSTUMES IS NOT A CRIME.
— Using the Black Suitcase for any action is not a crime, including using it to commit a crime. Considering that action never actually took place, it is not considered having happened and thus is not a crime itself.
— Being a member of the Black Organization is, in itself, not a crime. (You can't arrest Conia for being Gin.)
Actions & Arrest/Death
— If someone is killed, lynched, or arrested, their action for that phase will not go through and will fail. The only exceptions to this are arrests and poisonings with APTX. However, arrests can stop APTX--lynchings, on the other hand, do not.
— If Kazuha was successfully poisoned and accompanied someone that was about to be lynched over the 1 vote difference, the reduction of that 1 vote fails (aka, the accompany fails) and the target of accompany will be lynched instead.
Auto-Arrest (House Search/Face Pinch)
— If a house search uncovers a crime of any sort, the target is automatically arrested.
— If a face pinch is performed on a player and that player is in disguise (whether they are town or Black Org), the target is automatically arrested.
— Auto-arresting is a feature of these abilities and does not otherwise apply to other actions. For example, a crime uncovered via an investigation action does not yield an auto-arrest (even if it is being carried out by a police officer).
Condition
— All players begin the game "alive" in normal condition. The exception is travelers, who may begin the game "abroad". Over the course of the game, their condition may worsen to one of the following states:
Alive: Player is able to use any of their abilities within the rules. They may also discuss the ongoing game freely and participate in lynch voting.
Abroad: Player is out of the country until they return to Japan. Any actions designating them as a target will fail so long as they are abroad, and they cannot be killed without Bribe being used. Such players may speak freely, but they are not capable of voting or using their inherent abilities until they arrive in the country. [red]If a player uses any of their actions on an abroad traveler, all actions will fail.[/red]
Injured: Player is unable to use any abilities and also loses any of their passive abilities (including any disguises they may have been wearing). The exceptions are the nightly killing for Black Org members--they may still carry out a kill at night--and Revenge for Chianti and Korn, but they will lose their role-specific abilities. Injured players may still participate freely in the game, including casting lynch votes. Any actions (apart from arrest and voting) used on the phase the player gets injured will fail.
Temporary Injury: Police that successfully arrest an uninjured sniper will be injured for two phases following the arrest. While temporarily injured, the police officer in question will lose all abilities apart from voting.
Suspended: Police that attempt to arrest someone and are unsuccessful will be suspended for two phases following the arrest attempt. While suspended, the police officer in question will lose all abilities apart from voting. Any actions the police uses (apart from arrest and voting) on the phase where they become suspended will fail.
Arrested: Player may not use any abilities, though they are also impervious to being poisoned or killed (unless Bribe is in effect). Any and all actions on arrested players will fail with the exception of Lawsuit to free them. They may speak and participate freely in the game, but they will remain unable to vote. Arrested players are considered "out" of the game when determining which side has won. The role of the arrested player will not be revealed at the time of arrest unless Revenge was used successfully, in which case their identity is announced due to them resisting arrest.
Dead: Player is killed during the course of the game. They may no longer participate in the game, but they will still win with their team should they come out the victors. Dead players may not share any information with living players after they have died, whether it be information they acquired prior to their death or after.
Black Org Hierarchy
— The Black Org has a leader (assuming he is in the game), referred to as Anokata.
— The leader has the final say on who to designate as the night kill target and may give the order as such. No one can override this order.
— If the leader orders a lover to kill their lover, it will happen unless the lover doing the attack is discombobulated, or if Vodka happened to be the lover and discombobulated the leader the same phase. If the kill does go through, the murderer doing the kill suicides.
— The leader may not command a subordinate to use an APTX. They are limited to sending in only their own APTX order.
— To use an ability or vote, you must PM the order directly to the GM. Those submitted in the main channel do not count.
— You may provide the GM with a will to be presented at the time of your death (unless you are erased).

Listing of which actions take precedent over others with pertinent examples.
Spoiler:
Order of Actions
— Being familiar with the order of actions will aid you in formulating strategies and understanding the flow of the game. The order of actions goes as follows:
Night Actions
Arrest > Discombobulation > APTX > Killing > House Search/Detain > Frighten > Face Pinch > All other actions > Travel
Day Actions
Arrest/Detain/Face Pinch > Charm (unless Kazuha is APTX'd and does not have the charm herself) > APTX > Lynching> All other actions > Travel
Below are scenarios detailing several examples of the order of actions at play.
Scenario 1:
— BACKGROUND: On Night 1, Abs (Gin) killed Kleene (Agasa). Now, on Night 3, Akonyl (Shiratori) feels he has sufficient evidence to attempt an arrest for Kleene's murder. Abs knows Akonyl is closing in and resolves to kill him.
— PLAYER ACTIONS (Night 3):
Akonyl (Shiratori) sends in: Arrest Abs for killing Kleene on Night 1.
Abs (Gin) sends in: Kill Akonyl.
— RESULT: Akonyl successfully arrests Abs. Akonyl is not killed. Because the order of actions dictates that arrest takes precedent over killing, Abs's kill fails completely. Even if Abs had targeted someone else instead of Akonyl, the kill still would have failed because it is prevented by arrest.
Scenario 2:
— BACKGROUND: On Night 1, Abs (Gin) killed Kleene (Agasa). Now, on Night 3, Akonyl (Shiratori) feels he has sufficient evidence to attempt an arrest for Kleene's murder. Abs knows Akonyl is closing in and resolves to kill him. At the same time, PhoenixTears (Eisuke) has been convinced that Akonyl may be up to no good that night and plans to discombobulate him. In addition to the arrest attempt, Akonyl has decided to investigate Jd- (Araide) healing Parkur (Camel) that night to confirm him.
— PLAYER ACTIONS (Night 3):
Akonyl (Shiratori) sends in: Arrest Abs for killing Kleene on Night 1. Investigate Jd- heals Parkur.
Abs (Gin) sends in: Kill Akonyl.
PhoenixTears (Eisuke) sends in: Discombobulate Akonyl.
Jd- (Araide) sends in: Heal Parkur.
— RESULT: Akonyl successfully arrests Abs. Akonyl is not killed. Because the order of actions dictates that arrest takes precedent over killing, Abs's kill fails completely. Jd- successfully heals Parkur without issue, but Akonyl is told that his investigation has failed. This is due to the discombobulation by PhoenixTears. Because arrest takes precedent over all other actions, the discombobulate does not affect it. Discombobulate does affect investigations, however, which is why Akonyl's investigation failed while his arrest succeeded.
Scenario 3:
— BACKGROUND: On the dawn of Day 3, the sole remaining member of the Black Organization, Miaka (Pisco), feels she has pofa (Satou)'s role nailed down. pofa is certain that Miaka was the murderer of Lynz (Ran) who died the previous phase on Night 3. As such, Miaka decides to APTX pofa and pofa decides to arrest Miaka.
— PLAYER ACTIONS (Day 3):
pofa (Satou) sends in: Arrest Miaka for killing Lynz on Night 3.
Miaka (Pisco) sends in: APTX pofa as Satou.
— RESULT: pofa successfully arrests Miaka. Miaka's APTX on pofa does not go through, and the APTX is confiscated.
Order of Healing
— As a rule of thumb, if more than one protection or healing is performed on a target that is attacked, the one with the highest priority will succeed as all others fail. The current order of healing is as follows:
Voice of Reason > Lovey Dovey > Snipe Guard > Watch Protection > Protect > Heal > First Aid
— In the event the action with the highest priority was hindered (via discombobulation or a similar action), the healing action with the next highest priority will succeed in its place.
— Sniping bypasses all types of healing and first aid. When someone is protected, the protected will survive, but the protector himself dies instead. If someone possessing the watch is attacked, they are protected. If someone possessing the watch is attacked by a sniper, they will survive but the watch will break and become unusable for the remainder of the game.
— Abilities that protect and heal only prevent the death of those that are named and targeted directly. This prevents the stacking of certain abilities, for example: If Ran possesses the watch and protects someone that is sniped, the watch will not save her because she was not the named, direct target. Ran will die, the watch will not come into play, and the targeted she protected will survive as usual.
— Any action performed by someone who was successfully healed via first aid will fail, because that player became injured as the action was being carried out.
— If the target of the night's kill is saved from being killed, the killer will be notified that the target was healed/protected (will not specify which).
— Being familiar with the order of actions will aid you in formulating strategies and understanding the flow of the game. The order of actions goes as follows:
Night Actions
Arrest > Discombobulation > APTX > Killing > House Search/Detain > Frighten > Face Pinch > All other actions > Travel
Day Actions
Arrest/Detain/Face Pinch > Charm (unless Kazuha is APTX'd and does not have the charm herself) > APTX > Lynching> All other actions > Travel

Statuses
Certain roles have an inherent "status" associated with them that provide unique attributes and advantages.
Spoiler:
Black Org Leader
- Roles with that Status: Anokata or chosen Black Org leader
- Can order killings
- Can distribute the Black Suitcase each Day phase
[size]Note: If the leader is arrested or lynched in the same phase he tries to hand out the Black Suitcase, the action will still go through.
Lovers
- Decided by Yumi during Prep Phase.
- Lovers know one another's actual identities.
- Cannot befriend Sonoko, and Detective Boys cannot be lovers.
- When one lover dies, the other commits suicide that same phase. No amount of healing or protecting may prevent the death of a suicidal lover.
- A town/town pair wins along with the town. A Black Org/Black Org pair wins with the Black Org. A town/Black Org pair does not win with either the town or the Black Org. To win as such a tandem, they must kill all others.
- Lovers may still win while one or both are arrested.
- Lovers can protect each other with the ability Lovey-Dovey.
Friends
- Roles with status: Sonoko and her friend
- Friends know one another's identities, or just the disguise if one is disguised.
- Sonoko can use the same abilities as her friend, [red]whether that person is dead or alive.[/red] (She may not arrest (includes pinch), house search, detain, or kill in any way.)

Note: Akai/Jodie/Camel/Kir being Anokata will not count toward this notification, because they would not be in disguise. Anokata will be included in the number of FBI agents in the game if he's one of those roles, but there won't be anything strange about him. James can also receive Anokata's results in this case.
- After each night, James will receive a number of results from his subordinates based upon how many are left in the game. If 3+ are in the game, he will receive two results; if 0-2 are in the game, he will receive only one result.
- With concern to Akai, James will receive only one of his investigations. In the case of Kir, James will receive only one of her actions (Betrayal, investigate, or Special Investigation), chosen at random. The same also applies to any subordinate utilizing the bow-tie.

Anokata will be included in the number of FBI agents in the game if he's one of those roles, but there won't be anything strange about him. James can also receive Anokata's results in this case.
- After each night, James will receive a number of results from his subordinates based upon how many are left in the game. If 3+ are in the game, he will receive two results; if 0-2 are in the game, he will receive only one result.
- With concern to Akai, James will receive only one of his investigations. In the case of Kir, James will receive only one of her actions (Betrayal, investigate, or Special Investigation), chosen at random. The same also applies to any subordinate utilizing the bow-tie.
