Welcome to Cube Mafia! :siren:

This is a game of mafia that is based off the movie "Cube." The normal rules of Mafia apply, but there is an added win condition in that the town can escape the Cube.

Standard Mafia Rules

Cube Mafia Rules

No editing your posts.
No talking OOT unless you are able to do so.
Don't post your role PM.
Don't spectator-post.
Don't post after hammers or daykills.
Don't post after dying.
Don't encrypt your posts, make Toxx clauses, or play Truth or Dare.
Don't fake day actions.

In this game there will be 6 directions that the town can take at any one time. North and South are arbitrary, and the town will secretly decide a standard to use before the beginning of each day, determined by me. Each direction will have its own section to look at with a lot going on. Example:

code:

The door to the North has a panel on it that has the picture of Admiral Ackbar on it.
There are 9 numbers above the panel, arranged in groups of 3's, that read 123 456 789.
Inside the room is Big Bird from Sesame Street, and he is waving at you

There are 6 exits with a panel under each door. The 6 panels in the room all relate to each other and form a "puzzle." The puzzles will get harder as the game progresses. The scum know which rooms are safe, which rooms are trapped, and which room brings you closer to the light of day. There may or may not be roles that influence the panels and rooms.

As for the puzzles, there will be three "groups". One of the panels will display the TRUE Path. Several of the panels will hold the SAFE Path. And the rest will be trapped. The TRUE and SAFE panels are related, somehow. It is up to you to figure out which rooms are safe and which rooms are trapped.

Everyday, you will all vote on who you would like to throw into a room. You may make a vote by using the command ##vote: Player Name Goes Here: Direction you would like to throw them. You may also ##unvote at any time and change your vote accordingly. You only have one vote per person. When a player has reached votes from half the remaining players, they will be chucked into a room. If it's safe then they will not die. If it's trapped, they will be immediately killed and cardflipped. At that time the day will end and we will enter twilight. You will have one hour to vote on which direction the town would like to travel. SOMEONE HAS TO HAVE HAD GONE INTO THAT ROOM AT SOME POINT. After a tally of the votes, the simple majority will win and the town will move. If the majority was a trapped room, the town will not move. If the room moved into was a safe room, then the town will not have moved closer to escape. If the room was the TRUE room, then you will be one day closer to victory.

At any time, a player may ##move into any room. You may move as many times as you like. AGAIN, a player must have moved into a room you wish the town to move to in order to advance the escape route. If you make this command, please give me a heads up before doing anything stupid so that I may be present for your action. I'm not always around.

Also, if the town so desires, they may throw shoes into rooms to test for traps. Between the 25 of you, ONLY 5 OF YOU BROUGHT ONE SHOE. Ya'll dumb. You may throw shoes by having half the town votes on throwing a shoe with the command ##Throw Shoe: Direction you would like shoe to travel. One use of a shoe consumes it. When you run out of shoes, you're out of shoes.

The town wins when they either escape or have killed all the scum. The scum wins when they have a majority of the town.

I reserve the right to modkill lurkers or anyone that doesn't submit night actions at my leisure. This is not a lurker friendly game

I really liked mafia for like the first 20 games or so. Discovering my win ratio increases when I make zero effort has ruined me as a player though.

I go back and forth. I put in effort when I feel like and don't when I don't.

I'm leaning strongly away from effort since it is very rarely rewarded.

The winrate isn't important in itself but feeling like the effort is worth it is. I'ma try play a high effort game for this one though, concept's too interesting to half rear end.

the last time I ran this game someone jumped into a room that had a clown in it. His theory was that there was no way KK would put an evil clown in the game.

It didn't end well for him

Its more of a matter of "do I have the time" than "is it allowed".

But I really like puzzle games, so I'll bite, sign me up!

I'm a fan of Cube and I'm a fan of Mafia, I'll play this game. Hypercube and Cube Zero were totally cool you guys

Question: The OP states of the three panels, one will lead to the true path. But it suggests there are three panels above each door. Does that mean each direction will have three panels to discuss?

There are 6 doors, each with 1 panel. Only one of the doors is the TRUE path, the other 5 are just safe or trapped.
