Did you know? The Trans-Siberian Railway, which runs from Moscow in the East to Vladivostok in the West, is the longest railway line in the world. It spans a length of 9,289 kilometers (5,772 miles).

Did you know? In 1698, Tsar Peter I (Peter the Great) instituted a tax on beards as part of his reforms, even allowing the police to publicly shave men who refused to pay the tax.
Also, with 11 players, it takes 6 votes to reach a majority. I meant to put that in the OP. Probably goes without saying, but I always include that info regardless.

Здравствуйте и добро пожаловать в Русскую Мафию! As is typical, each DP will last 72 hours, or until a majority of players have voted have placed their vote on the same player (or voted to no-lynch). If the DP times out without a majority being reached, the day will end without a lynch.
Rules:
- No copy-pasting your role PM or pretending to do so. Paraphrase it instead.
- No use of generative AI to paraphrase your role PM for you.
- No editing or deleting posts.
- No conversing about the game outside of the DP threads or any approved chats.
- No liking posts after dying.
- No ciphers or cryptography.
- I reserve the right to add in additional rules as necessary to keep the game fair.
Additional Information:
- All characters in this game are real people from Russian/Soviet history. There is a theme split, meaning that all mafia characters have something in common not shared by any of the town characters. There is a fakeclaim mechanic in play, as well.
- There may or may not be mechanics in play which punish claiming characters and/or roles, so claim at your own risk!
- The town wins when all threats to the town are eliminated. The mafia wins if, at the start or end of any game phase, the number of living mafia players is greater than or equal to the number of living non-mafia players. There may also be one or more third party players in the game, in which case they will have their own unique win conditions and may either joint win with another team or win independently.
- Your role PM may refer to MYLO/LYLO. MYLO is when the number of living town players outnumbers the mafia by only two players; LYLO is when the town outnumbers the mafia by only one. (Third parties are counted with town for the purposes of determining parity and MYLO/LYLO.) Votes are locked in at LYLO, meaning that once a vote is cast on a LYLO day, it cannot be removed or changed to another player, so be careful! I will announce when a day is a MYLO/LYLO day. Any and all remaining voting/lynching roles will be deactivated on MYLO/LYLO days.
- This is a "role madness" game, meaning that most, if not all players have a role other than Vanilla Town/Mafia Goon.
- I will not answer questions in-thread, except to give a time check or a vote count. Please direct all other questions to me over PM. Generally speaking, I will not answer questions about roles other than your own. This includes questions about hypothetical roles. Questions about 'flipped roles', on the other hand, are generally okay.

As your career advisor, just say no to 3rd shift. Just be a stubborn mule and complete unreasonable
Not sure how much of a choice I really have here if I want to keep my job, but I actually haven't heard direct word from the supervisors yet. I'll have to talk to them about it tomorrow.
It's really frustrating for me, because I bid on my current position and I was told that if you successfully bid on a position, you can't be bumped from it. Idk maybe I misremembered that part, but I don't think so.
Anyway it's way too late, I gotta go to bed.

@AustinL0926
I appreciate the votes, genuinely I do. However, I think I may have to drop out of consideration. Someone I work with is going to be taking leave starting next week and me and another coworker are expected to pick up some of the slack. Also, I've heard that they may be bumping me to 3rd shift soon, which I was not expecting and am really, really fucking unhappy about. Basically, pretty soon I'm going to be a lot busier with work than I normally am, and with MU being having a higher activity baseline to begin with, I just don't know if I'll be able to keep up well enough.
Don't worry, I should still be able to mod my own game here on DART just fine, but I don't think I'll really be able to participate in the MU Championships.

I have all the characters and roles planned out already (and had done so by the time I posted this thread), but I still have to write some of the PMs. If you're that impatient, though, I can send you yours today.

Oh, thank you for signing up! I'm probably going to wait until Sunday to start the game though, like I said, due to request and because of the holiday weekend. Please be sure to read the Guide to Forum Mafia first if you've never played it before!

Mharman, will you be our 11th? I'm planning on starting this game on Sunday due to player request + the upcoming holiday weekend, so if your schedule is clear after then, please sign up!

Eh sure, I suck at this game and pretty sure most of you hate me but ill try
I don't think anyone here hates you, and I certainly don't think you suck at this game. Yeah, some people got upset at you for how you used your role last time. It happens. Some people take this game more seriously than others, and sometimes people get mad over others' mistakes. But then, we get over it and keep on playing with each other. Trust me when I say, you are FAR from the worst or most disliked player here. I actually think you have a lot of promise as a relatively new player.

I'll consider being a representative. Not sure if me modding the next game makes that a better or worse idea. I gotta do all my mod duties, of course, but I don't have to use my mental abilities trying to deduce who's town and who's scum in my game and the MU games.

Thanks to Austin for helping me with the setup for this game! The theme for this one will be Russian history -- all characters will be figures from Russian/Soviet history.
I know this is difficult these days, but I designed this game for 11 people, and I would really like to fill up all 11 spots if possible. Tell your friends!
Also, I'm instituting a new rule/mechanic that I've seen used elsewhere: votes are locked in at LYLO. Once you cast your vote, you can't take it back. Basically, it prevents the town from trying to bait the mafia into quickvoting and "solving" the game that way instead of actually solving it. I will announce when the game is at LYLO and remind everyone of the rule.

What was the point of killing Pie first btw? He wasn't widely townread; kind of the opposite, in fact.

Posted in:
Wild game. I get what people are saying about me rushing to a lynch DP3, and I should have waited, but tbh I think the town was fucked regardless. I genuinely could not think of any other way that there could have been two NKs, and even if That2 somehow came up with the correct explanation, I wouldn't have bought it anyway. I also thought that late Doctor claim after Wylted's BG flip was sus anyway.

Wylted used Bodyguard on Whiteflame. And Bullish uses Strongman to kill Wylted. Apparently that means both Wylted and Whiteflame die instead of just Whiteflame lmao.
WTF. I never would have believed that.

@That2User
Earth motivated me night 1, the 2 kills happened night 2
This is what Earth said about his own role:
Every night, I can target a player and give them a extra action the next night.
Earth, can you confirm this is how it works?
Created:

@Bullish
Bullish, FYPOV, Earth has to be town because of my Dreamer results, whether I'm lying or not. But if Earth is town, that's the only plausible explanation for the two NKs last night. It literally has to be That2 no matter how you look at it.

@Vader
@That2User
I will say, behaviorally speaking you and Lunatic did amazing this game. I don't think I would have ever caught you based on behavior alone. Also, Vader, if WF really did see Luna kill Pie, you should give the mafia a no contest. Saying "You appear as Town to ALL investigative roles" is just misleading imo. It implies he's a Universal Godfather when he's just a regular one.

@Bullish
results?
No results, but they would have been useless to me today anyway. I'm assuming that Wylted must have used his ability on me. It would make no sense for the mafia to try and narrow the PoE.
Created:
Posted in:
Okay, so when I first saw Wylted's flip, I thought, 'cool, we can just lynch Bullish and That2 in either order and win', which is what I would have done anyway, but I expected to have to defend Wylted, although I thought he was obviously town. But then I realized that today is actually 3-1 MYLO, so that doesn't work, but that regardless, Earth is 100% town FMPOV due to not being in my dream, and he said he Motivated That2, which is the only thing that would explain the two night kills. And then I realized that Bullish's Cop claim is basically confirmed by Luna's flip. So yeah, it literally has to be That2. Game solved.
VTL That2

Okay, still at work right now. Will explain on my break but this game is solved. Other mafia is That2. I'm nearly 100% certain

Checking in. WF dying is unsurprising. Wylted dying is, but helps with POE. Scum resign

@WyIted
I could see lunatic being silenced and whiteflame claiming he saw him visit and he flips innocent and the next DP it flips that he had a visiting role so it gives whiteflame plausible deniability
That's a fair point. It is weird that Luna has been online for so much of today yet hasn't said anything yet. I know there is a very strong variant of Silencer that prevents someone from speaking OR voting and doesn't publicly reveal that the target has been silenced, either, but I've never seen a version that strong be used before on this site. I'm going to go to bed soon, I'll see what's happened (or not) in the thread in the morning.

@WyIted
That's believable yes. Let me give it some thought. Why are we trusting whiteflame results when he was in everyone's scum pile last DP?
Tbh, I came around on my scumread on WF. I liked his responses to me, and I saw the point you were making about him usually playing it safe as scum when it comes to reads and such. I know Pie said that WF can be really bold and has been recently (like when he killed the claimed PGO in ERB Mafia), and that's true, but there's a difference between being bold when it comes to mechanics and just general interactions/reads, which is what you were getting at, and tbh I agree. Also, I wanted (and still want) to wait for Luna to claim before I come to a conclusion about whether or not WF is lying about his role.
Why not unvote and give lunatic some wiggle room
He's already at L-1, I don't think anyone here is stupid enough to just hammer him right now before he even claims, and if there was an Executioner, they'd have already used their role on Luna if they were going to. When he does claim, I'll Unvote.

@WyIted
Okay, if your instinct is to assume I'm lying, I 100% do not blame you and I promise I won't get upset at anyone who votes for me here in the endgame, but would you believe me if I told you that Vader just messaged me and told me that he messed up, and it's actually possible that my dream includes two scum, even if one of them is not a Godfather?
Created:
Posted in:

@WyIted
What would you say if I told you I asked him a follow up question about 2 goons being in a potential dreamer results?
All I can tell you is this: I asked Vader if it was possible that two of the three people I dreamed about are mafia, and he said that only one is. However, when I subsequently asked him if a Godfather could show up, he said that a Godfather would not appear alone, but could theoretically appear with their partner.
Created:
Posted in:

@WyIted
He said it's at least one scum in your three people and I have to look back at the conversation but it appears you claimed you asked him and he told you only one?
That is indeed what happened. However, I also asked him earlier today if a Godfather would affect my dream, and he said yes, so technically speaking there could be two scum in my dream, but only if one of them is the Godfather. I was going to reveal that publicly, but I was waiting for Luna to claim first.

He visited Pie. Going to need an explanation for that one.
Good to know. I think that's as good a reason as any to push for a fullclaim at this point.

@Earth
I don't really understand why you would focus on outside the dream when you have a 1/3 chance. Sounds like you should reevaluate your reads.
There's 7 people in the game. Obviously, I know I am not scum. I also know that there is exactly one scum player among (Bullish, That2, Wylted). Through process of elimination, that means there is also one scum among (Whiteflame, Lunatic, you). I have a 1/3 chance either way.

@Bullish
Dreamer doesn't CC cop, especially not in a mafia themed mafia game that probably has godfather.
It is a pseudo-CC. Like yeah, it's not impossible that they're in the same game but it is weird.
