[Atlas]

will it run? most likely not

[Zugzwang]

@Atlas

will it run? most likely not

I mean thbthtbhtbthbthb I’d join if the playerlist was good enough [this would realistically not get players in the first place. but]

[Atlas]

mob mentality typically needs a mob

@Atlas

seperately? probably sometime down the line if this stays up for another 3-5 years

[Atlas]

yes
it doesn’t exactly have a reason not to

[Zugzwang]

@Zugzwang

nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa do you expect it to do so thbthtbthbthtbhtbthbthb

part of me is going “wow even during break, with a single signup, it took a long time to fill” but also I don’t think that game looked particularly appealing

[Atlas]

i think it went 6 years

Rules:

1. Follow the Forum Game Rules.
2. Post a minimum of 10 game related posts per active phase.
3. Fail to heed the former rules more than twice, and you will be subbed out or modkilled.
4. I can and might have to add and/or remove rules in the future. Except the first rule.
   Let’s just hope that I won’t have to use this rule.

General Mechanics

• This is an open setup: There is 1 Town Neapolitan Taste Tester, 10 Town Ice Cream, and 3 Mafia Ice Cream.
• Factional attacks are mandatory and not assigned.
  • Mafia have access to a 1-shot factional strongman attack.
• Day Phases last 48 hours. Night Phases last 24 hours.
• All actions must be submitted in your role cards / role PMs.
• Mafia members may communicate with each other through Discord during both phases.
• Multitasking, i.e. using multiple abilities on the same phase, is allowed.
• The host will announce when XYLO occurs.

Anti-Claim Mechanic: 1-Shot 'Vanilla’izer

• Once per game, the mafia may choose a player. If they are the [Town] Neapolitan Taste Tester, they become a [Town] Ice Cream.
• The mafia are not informed of whether they chose the [Town] Neapolitan Taste Tester.
• Both the original and updated roles will be mentioned in the flip.

Order of Operations

• (Start)
• Town Ice Cream - (Flavor changes and protection)
• 'Vanilla’izer
• Town Neapolitan Taste Tester
• Nightkill
• (End)

Roles

You are a [Town] Neapolitan Taste Tester

Active: Scoop
Each night, choose a player. You learn whether they are flavored as Vanilla.

You win when all threats have been completely eliminated, and when at least 1 Town member is still alive.

You are a [Town] Ice Cream

Active: Reflavor
Each night, decide whether to flavor yourself as Vanilla, Chocolate, or Strawberry. Repeat flavors are allowed.

• If you flavor yourself as Chocolate, you can also privately vote for a player that night. The player with the most votes will be protected. If there is a tie, no one will be protected.
• If you flavor yourself as Strawberry, you can place up to 2 private votes that night (which can be on the same or different people), but the following night, you cannot choose to become Vanilla.
• The player who gets protected will not be announced, and a successful protection will not notify the attacked player.
• If you do not use this action, you will remain the flavor you were the previous night.
  • For this purpose, you start the game as Vanilla.
  • If you do not use this action and were previously Strawberry, you still cannot become Vanilla the following night.

You win when all threats have been completely eliminated, and when at least 1 Town member is still alive.

You are a [Mafia] Ice Cream

Passive: Not Vanilla
You have no abilities but your voice and your vote. You do not register as Vanilla to the Neapolitan Taste Tester.

Active: Heat Gun (Factional Ability)
Once per game, Mafia can make their nightkill a strongman attack.

You win when you reach parity with the Town.

Vote Mechanics

• Use the latest voting format.
• Plurality: Whoever has the most votes at the end of a phase will die.
• Majority: At any point during day phase, whoever has >50% of all votes will die.
• [No Exe] is a valid vote.
• In case of a tie, a random player within the tie will be executed.
  –unless [No Exe] is also tied, in which case [No Exe] will take priority.
• Self-votes are considered valid votes.
• Votes are locked in XYLO scenarios.

@Zugzwang

If you flavor yourself as Strawberry , you can place up to 2 private votes that night (which can be on the same or different people), but the following night, you cannot choose to become Vanilla .

this is a very very odd role

[Atlas]

@Zugzwang

Neapolitan

if i had a dime for everytime this pun was made i’d have two (it was my role in rwby)

[Atlas]

@Atlas

this is a very very odd role

i feel like that’ll just decide the game

+if people get metay about it they can essentially add comba-whatever into the setup

[Atlas]

i like the chocolate one though and the vanilla mech is neat

+if people get metay about it they can essentially add comba-whatever into the setup

the votes are for who gets protected
not for who’s eliminated in the following day
