INDOCTRINATION MAFIA - BALTIC RIDGE THE SEQUEL FLAWED SETUP GAME OVER!

Post by Inconquerable »

INDOCTRINATION MAFIA - THE BALTIC RIDGE SEQUEL
Baltic Ridge Mafia #1 Link



Miles Canofbeans from Baltic Ridge is back, but this time, he’s gone rogue. While working on the most recent Baltic Ridge album, Swim the Mountains, Miles watched one too many cult documentaries on Webshowz (home of other originals such as The Irishwoman (just kidding, that one’s not real, women don’t live in Ireland), Conversations with a Miller: The Abby Lee Tapes, and Peach is the New Bellini), and has become something of a cult leader himself. He has legions of fans from his work over the years, but some of them are a little more fanatical than others.

Unfortunately, Miles can’t get through to everybody. Those closest to Miles have enlisted the help of cops and interrogators to help get through to him to get him back on the straight and narrow, or otherwise arrest him before things get out of hand. Cops use their powers during each night phase to investigate one player, and interrogators use their power only once during one day phase of their choosing to expose a player’s role.

Miles has enlisted the help of Zia Udon to convert nonbelievers. During each night phase, Miles will select one nonbeliever to indoctrinate. That individual will join Miles and Udon in their efforts to indoctrinate other nonbelievers. Essentially the converted player switches sides from town to mafia. The name of the converted nonbeliever will not be disclosed to the nonbelievers. Once the night phase is over, gameplay resumes, but no name is given.

Being a role blocker, Udon has the ability to stop one player, during each night phase, from using their ability. If Udon chooses a cop, their investigation during that night phase will come up invalid. If Udon chooses an interrogator, that player will not be able to interrogate during the immediately following day phase.

During the day phases, players will vote to choose one player who will be ex-communicated (not killed). This player will lose their special ability for the remainder of the game, but they can still play and vote as a normal player. Ex-communicated players cannot be converted by Miles and Udon. The number of votes needed for ex-communication decreases every time somebody is indoctrinated in the night phase, just as it would if they were killed from the game. As the number of mafia increases, the number of votes needed for ex-communication decreases. “No votes” will not be in play in this game.

Roaming among the nonbelievers is Markus Treesman4:20, the Know It All, who knows everybody’s original roles. Markus cannot be converted to Mafia, but he can be ex-communicated, which strips him of his ability to vote during the day phase. Markus cannot learn if somebody has been converted by Miles and Udon, he’s too busy tripping balls while listening to Grateful Dead to learn new information.

Also aligned with the nonbelievers is Buyin’ Marshmallows, a psychiatrist who picks one indoctrinated nonbeliever to convert back to being a regular nonbeliever during each night phase.

Will the nonbelievers catch Miles and Udon before they indoctrinate the rest of the world? Will Miles and Udon indoctrinate the rest of the world and then proceed to reunite their original band, the genre-defining post-neo-jazz-core Mayflower 95.6? Will Miles get his own hour comedy special on Webshowz? Let’s find out!

IMPORTANT: At no point can anybody role reveal unless they have been selected by an interrogator. This includes ex-communicated players. Ex-communicated players can contribute to the game and vote, but may not reveal their roles.

ALSO IMPORTANT: I need all official votes and un-votes to be bolded at least. Adding a colour is great too for my bad eyes!

ROLE INFORMATION
Miles Canofbeans - your typical mafia boss. Miles sends in the name of the person mafia wishes to indoctrinate. If Miles is ex-communicated during the day phase, he is eliminated entirely from the game. Note that the nonbelievers selected by Miles to be indoctrinated do not have an option to decline, they are immediately aligned with Miles and Udon.

Zia Udon - mafia assistant and role blocker. Zia sends in the name of a player during each night phase who mafia wishes to role block. The person chosen cannot use their special ability (cops at night, interrogators during the following day phase, and the psychiatrist in the following night phase). If Zia is ex-communicated during the day phase, he is eliminated entirely from the game.

Indoctrinated Nonbelievers - former nonbelievers who have been converted by Miles and Udon. These players cannot reveal that they have been converted or their previous roles before they were indoctrinated. However if they are interrogated, they must reveal that they were converted. If indoctrinated, you lose the assigned role that you had as a nonbeliever. If investigated by a cop, their role as a converted mafia will be revealed to the cop.

Markus Treesman4:20 - Know It All aligned with the nonbelievers. Markus knows the original roles of all of the players in the game, but isn’t privy to who is converted during the night phases. He cannot explicitly say that he knows who has which role. Markus cannot be converted to mafia. If he is ex-communicated, he can no longer vote during the day phase, though he can contribute to the discussion. If ex-communicated, Markus still cannot reveal anybody’s roles.

Cops - traditional cops who are able to find out the role of one player of their choosing during each night phase. If a cop is ex-communicated, they lose their ability to investigate, but they can still vote in subsequent day phases. If a cop is converted to mafia, they must play as part of mafia’s team, and can no longer use the cop’s ability to investigate. If indoctrinated, cops can use whatever information they have gathered to help mafia.

Interrogators - players who can choose one player during one day phase only and force them to reveal their role. Interrogators must send the moderator their choice, they cannot post that they are interrogating somebody in the game thread. They can interrogate themselves if they so choose. If ex-communicated, these players can no longer use their ability to interrogate, but can still vote in subsequent day phases. If an interrogator is converted to mafia, they must play as part of mafia’s team, and can no longer use their ability to interrogate.

Buyin’ Marshmallows - psychiatrist who can convert one indoctrinated nonbeliever into a regular nonbeliever during each night phase, bringing them back to the side of the town as opposed to mafia. Players healed by the psychiatrist do not get their special roles back, and cannot explicitly say in the game thread that they know who mafia is. If Marshmallows selects a regular nonbeliever to convert back, nothing happens. Marshmallows will not be informed if he is successful in converting an indoctrinated nonbeliever back or not. Marshmallows can be indoctrinated, and if he is, he loses his ability to convert anybody.

Ex-Communicated Nonbelievers - nonbelievers who have been voted out. They lose their role, however they still continue to contribute and vote during each day phase. These players can not be converted by mafia. Roles of ex-communicated nonbelievers will not be revealed when ex-communicated.

WIN CONDITIONS
The nonbelievers win when they have successfully ex-communicated Miles and Udon.

Miles and Udon win when they have converted all available (i.e. not ex-communicated) nonbelievers.
