We are starting this thread a tad early because sign ups might take a while.
Here is the teaser for the game.
Make sure you read the whole post before you sign up.
We are being watched.
The game of mafia has been for millenia, a popular past time for advanced beings in another dimension. Over the ages the game had been played, again and again, gaining in popularity until eventually it became the single most important form of entertainment in these being lives. They work, only so they can play the game. They spend all their waking hours thinking about the game. Their lives have been dedicated to the game. But they have become so sshaed, that the games they create for themselves to play in are no longer amusing. It has all become too easy, so they no longer play; they simply watch, and create, and plan. Sadly, they have no one to play their creations. So they spread the idea of the game to others, hoping to find new players to watch.
They have been watching us.
As the Apocalypse game draws to a close they decide that the time for watching is over. They wish to once again run one of their own games. They draw down upon our little group, enter our homes, kidnap us and take us to their arena. These beings do not play by post, and they no longer just play for fun, they play for keeps.
On the first day they isolate all of their victims and explain that this is a different type of game, with different rules, but it is still mainly mafia as we know it. They want to know how we think, so they ask each of the kidnapped players to create a role that they would like to see in a mafia game. They will read these roles, analyze how we think and then we will be separated and given roles of our own. The roles will be assigned, of course, according to these beings own will. As I said, they play by different rules. They explain that there is no theme (though it may seem otherwise at times) but there is a logic to the game that makes sense to them...it just might not make sense to us. We will be given the tools necessary to play the game, we just might not always know what is a real tool and what is meaningless color. We will be expected to look beyond the obvious, or we will die.
These beings have a name for themselves, they call themselves Gastards. They will be great and glorious modding the game.
This is Gastard great and glorious mod mafia.
Consider this the official sign-up for the game.
It can be a single sentence seed of a concept, it can be a traditional mafia role, it can be an elaborate insane broken role. It doesn't matter, we will make sure that the game is playable.
Once you have PMed your role, post here that you have done so and we will create a player list. I will post again when sign ups are closed. The game will start no later than 14 real time days after the current game is finished, but it may start sooner.
From this point on, consider anything posted in this thread or any other thread related to the Gastard Mafia game, to be "in game".
Welcome.

If you wish to play DO NOT simply post to this thread and say you are /in. Instead PM MisterBlocky with a role idea.
