Game Mechanics/How To Play:
If you have any questions during the course of the game, you may ask Phoenicks, Paperhorse, or me via Private Message or Skype (contact info is posted in the Rules spoiler). We would be glad to assist you to the best of our ability.
There will be 9 players in this game. You will receive a Private Message containing your Role when all spots have been filled. Your Role PM will state your faction, say if you have any powers, and include a picture and short description of a cat owned by a mafia player.
There will be two factions in this game: the Town (the good guys) and the Mafia (the bad guys).
The game is played in phases. After sign-ups, I will send out roles. It will be “Night 0” and you will confirm that you have received your role. After Night 0 is Day 1, and the game itself begins.
Additionally, there will be a few roles with powers. These are detailed in the spoiler tag below.
If you are lynched or nightkilled, you are dead and no longer in the game. Your role will be revealed to all players upon death. When all Mafia are dead or the Town are outnumbered, the game will end.
If you break rules or cannot play, you may be subbed out (another player will take your place in the game) or modkilled (your role will be killed by me, and your faction will suffer).

There will be two factions in this game: the Town (the good guys) and the Mafia (the bad guys).
- The majority of players will be Town. The Town will win if they eliminate all Mafia players from the game.
- A minority of players will be Mafia. The Mafia win if they equal the Town in number. Their role is a bit trickier because they must pretend to be Town. However, they will receive a link to a private message board where they may plan in secret.
The game is played in phases. After sign-ups, I will send out roles. It will be “Night 0” and you will confirm that you have received your role. After Night 0 is Day 1, and the game itself begins.
- During the Day phases, both Town and Mafia players vote someone out of the game (called “lynching”). Days last for 48 hours.
- During the Night phases, the Mafia choose a player to eliminate from the game (called a “nightkill”). During this time, both factions may discuss the game in-thread. Nights last for 24 hours.

Roles:
These are the only roles that may be in the game. Not all of them will appear, and you will not be told which roles are not in the game.
Town:
There will be 5 Vanilla Townies.
There will be two out of these three roles: Cop, Jailkeeper, Named Townie.
Town:
There will be 5 Vanilla Townies.
Dear player,
You are a Vanilla Townie.
You are just an ordinary Town-aligned cat with no special powers.
During the Day, you should vote and discuss with the other players. At Night, you can relax.
You are Town. You win when all of the Mafia are dead.
There will be two out of these three roles: Cop, Jailkeeper, Named Townie.
Dear player,
You are the Cop.
During the Day, you should vote and discuss with the other players. At Night, you may PM the Host “Check: (player you wish to check)”. You will be told if that player is Town or Mafia. You can do this every Night phase.
You are Town. You win when all of the Mafia are dead.
Dear player,
You are the Jailkeeper.
During the Day, you should vote and discuss with the other players. At Night, you may PM the Host “Jail: (player you wish to jail)”. They will be protected from being nightkilled, but their role (if any) will not work.
You are Town. You win when all of the Mafia are dead.
There will be two Mafia Janitors.Dear player,
You are a Named Townie.
Even though you have no powers, you can claim to be the Named Townie, which may clear your name.
During the Day, you should vote and discuss with the other players. At Night, you can relax.
You are Town. You win when all of the Mafia are dead.
Note: If a Mafia Janitor is targeted by the Jailkeeper on the night they use their Janitor power, it will fail and it cannot be used again.Dear player,
You are a Mafia Janitor.
During the Day, you should vote and discuss with the other players. Each Night, you and your partner may collaborate and choose a target to kill. Additionally, once during the game, you may PM the Host with “Night #: Hide Kill”. The target’s role will only be revealed to the Mafia. (The target’s identity and alignment will still be made public.)
You are Mafia. You win when your faction equals the Town in number or this outcome cannot be prevented.
