The Skrull Invasion was successful! Earth has been brought to its knees and mankind has been enslaved.

Meanwhile on Another Earth...

THIS JUST IN! Stark Tower is on LOCK-DOWN!

A few weeks after the Avenger's glorious victory against the forces of Loki, the team returns to find Nick Fury with his top agent Natasha (as well as freakin' Johnny Blaze) waiting for them. Apparently, Reed Richards' (who couldn't make it because of a convention in town) other nemesis Dr. Doom (bastard ruler with a grudge) has once again claimed Earth and he has reason to believe that they've already replaced key members of the Avengers. Tony says that's ridiculous until---

"WARNING WARNING A FOREIGN BIOLOGICALS DETECTED. PROCEEDING TO---"

The penthouse explodes as shutters go down and sirens go off. Tony proceeds to shoot his own lair up, all the while explaining that the emergency failsafe has kicked in until ALL biological anomalies have been eliminated. Luckily Jarvis is online but with limited power. All the Avengers have agreed to hunker down and figure this out, one way or another (for saying otherwise would surely give them away).

Meanwhile, Black Widow and Ant-Man get the weirdest feeling that they a third-party has also infiltrated their ranks. As if they didn't already have a maniacal conqueror to worry about; something else was amiss. Truly a great challenge for the Avengers; possibly their greatest yet. This is...

Stickpage Mafia
Avengers, Disassembled! (Earth 669)

This Mafia is the same as the previous one. It is a Smalltown variant. If you're new then please read on. If you want to see how a Smalltown Mafia works, check out the link above. If you are a repeating player from the last game, welcome aboard!


How do I Win
Welcome back to SP Mafia. After a long hiatus, we will return to the classic formula of 8-10:3:1---that is, the default ratio of a balanced Mafia game consisting of 8-10 Uninformed Majority, 3 Informed Minority, and 1 Wildcard. Let's take an in-depth look at who these factions are and what do they need to win:

a) The Avengers are the heroes of this story. Each member will have their own special powers that they will need to use in order to fight evil. They win once the Doombots have been defeated and Ultron is out of the picture either via Nightkills or DayLynches.

b) Dr. Doom and The Doombots are the various clones of Dr. Doom. Because Dr. Doom is such a badass, he is always hiding behind these things and every single one you find will always be a bot. But if you kill the last one, he will unequivocally be THE Dr. Doom. Doom's goal is to eliminate all the Avengers or equal them in number. If however they tie with Ultron, then Ultron wins because he's awesome.

c) Ultron is the bastard child of Ant Man and seeker of death and destruction for mankind. Unlike Loki, Ultron has a one-track mind: He will not resort to multiple forms of trickery and is instead just a very tough bastard to kill. He wins when he's the last robot standing or nothing can prevent that from happening.



How to Play
If this is your first time playing Mafia on this forum or on the Internet or IRL in general, then it's quite easy. The game has two phases:

- In the Day, the entire group must reach a decision to lynch someone (or no one) by voting pubclicly in the thread. They do this by posting #Vote . In order for the town to reach a decision, the number of votes must be at least more than half the town. Once votes have reached that amount, that player is executed and Night follows.

- After the finishing lynch vote is made, I will give an extra 12 hours for anyone else to post. If no one else posts within that time, I will end the Day. If someone does post, the 12-hour clock will reset until the Day deadline is reached.

- At Night, any player with Active Powers can perform a Night Action associated with your Role. The Doombots can also convene together to talk and decide on a Factional Nightkill. Your Night Action will be listed in Role Section below.

- Stark Tower during the Day is open and spacious enough so that everyone may freely PM each other. But at night, unless you're a Doombots, you may not PM people. If someone has broken this rule, report it to me and they will be dealt with (ejected from the game).

Aaaand that's it. The game continues until any one of the 2 or 3 factions' win conditions is achieved (see above). If you need an example of how my Mafia games work, click on the links on top of this post in the spoiler.



Smalltown Variant
Unlike previous Mafia games, the Avengers really do know each other and so hiding their abilities would be pointless and stupid. So in this Smalltown variant, all role assignments will be revealed to each other. That means everyone will know that Nish is the Doctor, for example. Not only that but he may also be a Doombots Bodyguard. To balance this somewhat, some of the more exceptional role abilities get a nerf. In addition, alot more unconventional roles have been added as well.

In addition, Roles will be voluntarily picked via a drafting mechanic. So Nish can for example, choose to be the Bodyguard when he signs up, and everyone will know that. I'll explain more on Drafting later on when we get to Sign-Ups.



The Avenger Roles
Because the identity of these roles are now revealed to everyone, there will no longer be any PM's associated with them. The secret phrase is Jeff Farts Rainbows. Only the allegiance PMs will be given as stated above. Here is the full roster of Avegers and what they do:















***This role cannot be drafted! Pick another one!













The Setup
After drafting Roles (see sign-ups), players will be PM'd their Allegiance Roles and the game can officially begin. One "Day" in this game can last for 5 days or until after 24 hours that the lynching vote was made. One "Night" in this game lasts for 36 hours. Day starts first and follows an alternating progression.

Also note that the following abilities are arranged by priority. This is how Night Actions are resolved:
a) Captain America
b) Thor
c) Doctor Strange
d) Bruce Banner and Iron Man
e) Ant Man
f) Quicksilver
g) Ghost Rider
h) Hawkeye
i) Scarlet Witch
j) Black Widow
k) J.A.R.V.I.S.
l) Nick Fury
m) Killing Actions



Signups and Drafting
1) To Signup properly, you need to post in this thread. No more benches. Also, post the secret phrase just to be sure you've been reading this whole time.
Note: Those who previously expressed participation are automatically in.

2) As soon as everyone is confirmed, I will re-post with a list of all the players re-arranged at random. They will then have 24 hours each to draft/choose a Role they would like to be. A succeeding drafter may not pick until the previous one has picked within the time limit. If the user has not chosen within 24 hours, nothing happens but the next user may then choose. This goes on until all the Roles are picked.

3) After the draft, I'll be handing out the Allegiance PMs. Please refer to the sections above on the specifics of the current setup and role recieving.

4) Day 1 will officially begin after I send these PMs and after I mark it with a post of its own.



General Rules:
1) Play to your win condition. Do not betray the Avengers if you are an Avenger (do not suicide to give the Doombots a free nightkill). Do not help the Avengers if you are an ememy. You CAN however set up your own fellow Doombot for the slaughter. While not sporting, it's a viable move as long as you both agree to it in order to decieve the town into f

Should we confirm with the top 3 choices again?

We will draft later when sign ups are completed

I just woke up so reserve me a spot. I'll read later.

Townies better put up a good fight his time.

ill be calling it even before the game starts

I'll be lurking this one.

After my exams this week, I'll be travelling back to my hometown to relax and spend my Christmas with my family, so I'll be busy 24/7. Good luck with this one guys!

You already know I'm reserving a spot in this

Also, you know Jeff farts rainbows

I will be plopped on the spectator cushion on this one. A Skrull life is a hard life. May the new Skrull scourge slaughter the townie scum.

Also is there going to be a spectator thread of some sort. Seeing play by play commentary would be interesting.

Ha! I knew who the mafia was all along. If my crappy teammates hadn't weighed me down I would have won it for the town all by myself--Wait... what do you mean the game hasn't started yet?

I'm just gonna watch for this one. Now that I've played Mafia myself, it'll be fun trying to guess who the Skrull is this time around :p

Edit: Ninja'd. What if I made a spectator skype group?

Yeah, I remembered Hewitt bringing this up in the previous game and I'm all for it.

Not playing this round. Best of luck everyone.

Add me to the spectator group if there is one.

You know I'm in. I have to be active anyway since I'm a mod lol
