[i]It seemed like your typical trial. Convoluted setup? Check. Obstinate witnesses? Check. Case-saving evidence? Check again.  That is, until Maya Fey was [b]murdered.[/b]  Suddenly, the courthouse is a crime scene… with seventeen suspects. Can Phoenix Wright unravel the mystery and stop the killers before everybody meets a terrible fate?  Find out in…[/i]  [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/o2Kzeqf.png[/img][/center]    [center][color=crimson]ACE ATTORNEY MAFIA![/color][/center]    [center][size=2]GIGANTIC thanks to @Stanari, whose advice and assistance has been absolutely invaluable to the making of this game. If you enjoy this game, send your appreciation her way![/size][/center]    This is Mafia, a game of logic and trickery where a bunch of good guys have to find and hunt the bad guys! If you've never played, this is a pretty good overview [skip the "forum" section]: http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Newbie_Guide    This game of Mafia happens to be Ace Attorney themed. Ace Attorney is a game series where you play as a defense attorney, Phoenix Wright, who tries to acquit his client and find the real criminal. If you're a fan, great! If not, that's fine too. Knowledge of the source material is not required to play (although it will probably increase your enjoyment), and links to the wiki are provided in Role PMs :) [b] Please note that this game contains minor-to-major spoilers for the first four Ace Attorney games! Play or read at your own risk! [/b]    This game is a tad complicated (and features a closed setup), so if you're really, really new, this may not be the best game for you to start off with. You're still welcome to sign up, though!     [center][b]PLAYERS[/b][/center]  I am looking for 17 players exactly! This game will likely start around August 1st or when I get the required players (if later than August 1st)-- I'll play it by ear.  Signups are closed, but if you are interested you can still join as a replacement or spectator c: 1. marchhare 2. MyNameIsTea 3. Epioth 4. Cacogen 5. Ethernine 6. Beheaded 7. Mithent 8. Kapara 9. SmashedFish 10. Imraldela 11. GrimMistress 12. Craneoflores 13. StormDreamer 14. [s]FusionKnight[/s] Reynutocx 15. [s]Blizzardwing[/s] Nerasis 16. TheHeroicOne 17. Canvas   [center][b]REPLACEMENTS[/b][/center]  If a player drops out for any reason, they need a replacement! There's unlimited slots for these, so if the game is filled you can still sign up for this.  1. Leremis 2. Bequerel 3.  4. 5. ...   [center][b]SPECTATORS[/b][/center]  Interested in watching and getting those juicy, juicy spoilers? You can become a spectator and gain access to the special chat ;D You will also get pinged for EotDs and other stuff. Unlimited slots.  1. Valgami 2. Wolfpack1216r 3. DJFeather 4. Stanari 5.

[center][img]http://i.imgur.com/eyr4SpJ.png[/img][/center]  They're pretty long, but please read them! [size=2](Heavily influenced by Stanari's MMM, kirkfan2255's Historical Mafia 2, and NinjaCatBlue's Steampunk Mafia rulesets. Credit to where it's due.)[/size]      [center][color=crimson][size=4][b]Ace Attorney Related[/b][/size][/color][/center]  [LIST]  [*] In this game, Town is [color=green]Not Guilty[/color] and Mafia is [color=red]Guilty[/color]. Other factions... who knows? ;)  [indent]- [color=green]Not Guilty[/color] is always [color=green]green[/color], and [color=red]Guilty[/color] is always [color=red]red[/color].[/indent]  [*] Similarly, the Day phase (discussion and lynching) is the Investigation Phase, and the Night Phase (actions and killing) is the Court Phase. Elaboration under "Mechanics".  [*] Flavor has little-to-no bearing on alignment. There may be murderers who are [color=green]Not Guilty[/color] and protagonists who are [color=red]Guilty[/color]. So don't base stuff on it!  The characters in this game may be from any of the main games with sprites-- Ace Attorney, Justice for All, Trials and Tribulations, or Apollo Justice.  [*] Using Objection bubbles or AA sprites is allowed and encouraged-- just don't be obnoxious about them. Resources for such things will be in the discussion thread. However, this is a non-RP mafia, so please don't roleplay with the sprites.  [/LIST]      [center][color=crimson][size=4][b]General[/b][/size][/color][/center]  [list]  [*] Mod = God. If I say it, please respect me and go with it.  [*] Mod = Human Being. I make mistakes and will try my best to rectify them as I spot them. If you notice one, let me know and I'll fix it!  [*] Don't be a rules lawyer. What I mean to say is just as important as what I actually say. In a similar fashion, I may add rules at any time and will notify everybody accordingly.  [*] Don't minimod (ie call someone out on the rules). I'll be reading the thread, so there's no reason to! If you feel that someone has been breaking the rules but I haven't addressed it, send me a PM about it.  [*] I'm allowed to force-replace or modkill you for any reason I see fit. I don't plan to use this ability, and I won't unless you're being a massive jerk but not explicitly breaking the rules. Don't be a jerk. [*] For less-important rules, you will get warned before replacement/modkill. For important ones, it will be dealt with immediately. If modkilled, you will still win with your faction barring special circumstances.  [*] Fake-breaking rules = actually breaking rules.  [*] This is [b]not[/b] a b.astard game. I will not knowingly or intentionally lie to you. I may hide things from you or mislead you, however-- but it won't be anything that will be damaging to you or your faction! However, Millers and similar roles (which may or may not be in this game) are excepted from this clause. [*] Adding on to the previous, I will answer all questions honestly. I may answer with "no comment".  [*] Want to talk or ask questions? Use your Quicktopic! That's what it's there for, after all.   [*] To prevent dumb stuff, town and mafia win conditions will be present in the discussion thread, along with a sample Role PM and death notice.  [*] This is a [b]role madness[/b] game. The majority of people will have special abilities.      [center][color=crimson][size=4][b]Expected Behavior[/b][/size][/color][/center]  [*] Have fun, but try your best to win. Don't give up halfway through and vote yourself.  [*]Keep things civil. It's alright to say "wow that argument is dumb", but not "wow you're dumb". If you get mad, take a step back instead of escalating it further. Common sense.  [*]Don't be dumb or obnoxious. Flashing GIFs, neon, transparent, or near-unreadable text, caps lock... You want people to read your posts, after all.  [*] Chatting is fun, but please keep fluff to a minimum.     [center][color=crimson][size=4][b]Activity[/b][/size][/color][/center]  [*] BE ACTIVE. What does this mean? If you haven't posted in 48 hours (1 day) without prior warning, I will prod you. If you do not post by 24 hours after that (in the next day), I will attempt to replace you. In general, try to post in-thread at least a couple times a day and in-QT at least once a night. If you post before I've found a replacement, you can still play.   [*] If you're inactive [i]with[/i] prior warning, you're cool. But if you tell me you're gonna be gone for a week with no internet, I may replace you because it isn't fun to play with someone who isn't there. Try to know your schedule before signing up.  [*] If you need to be replaced for whatever reason, let me know and I will find a replacement.    [center][color=crimson][size=4][b]Mod Communication[/b][/size][/color][/center]  [*] [b]Don't screenshot, quote, or otherwise directly reproduce your Role PM in any way.[/b] Same thing for anything else I privately tell you (like answering questions, etc.) You may paraphrase, but that's it.  [*] If you have a fast-acting ability or need a response [i]quick[/i], send me a PM. Otherwise, use your Quicktopic.  [*] If you have a question about your role, it would help if you quoted what part you're actually confused about.     [center][color=crimson][size=4][b]Posting and Communication[/b][/size][/color][/center]  [*] [b]No outside communication[/b] unless explicitly allowed! That means no PMs, Quicktopics, Skype, whatever. Seriously. This includes dead players, who may not talk to the living.  [indent]- If you have a Quicktopic with someone else, you can talk there. Don't directly reproduce any communication from the Quicktopic. You may paraphrase.[/indent]  [*] Don't edit posts. Don't delete posts. If you have something else to say, make another post.[indent]- If you double post, you are allowed to delete the second post.[/indent] [*] If you're dead, no posting. Even things like "RIP me" or "bye guys" is a no-no.  [*] Don't use cryptography or foreign languages. That's unfair. Breadcrumbs are fine.  [*] This is a non-RP mafia, so please don't roleplay!     [center][color=crimson][size=4][b]Mechanics[/b][/size][/color][/center]  [*] This game has nights, known as the Investigation Phase! These are different from lockdowns. At night (and only at night, unless otherwise specified), you may send in actions.    [*] Court Phase lasts for 48 hours. Investigation Phase lasts for 24 hours directly after Court ends. When the discussion thread is posted, I will post the actual FR times.  There will be a gap between Investigation and Court to allow me to write the post.  [*] You may not post during Investigation. You may post in Quicktopics.  [*] Lynching works on majority vote. At the beginning of the game, with 17 alive, it takes 9 to lynch. A lynch will occur when majority vote is reached, and the phase will end immediately afterwards. [*]There is no Lynch Thread: lynching takes place in the discussion thread. To lynch, ping me (@Kalideoscope) and put [b]Vote: Username[/b] (or something similar- but please bold!) in your post. I will provide a vote count at least every other page.  [indent]- To revoke your vote, post [b]Unvote:[/b] (bolded!) and ping me. - If you do not wish to vote, you may post [b]No Vote[/b] (bolded) and ping me.
