Mafia

Mafia is a party game, typically played when large amounts of people want to punt.

Players are secretly assigned roles: either mafia, who know each other; or townspeople, who know only the number of mafia amongst them. Special other roles are also sometimes included. In the game's night phase the mafia covertly 'murder' a townsperson. During the day phase, all of the surviving players debate the identities of the mafia and vote to lynch a suspect. Play continues until all of the mafia have been eliminated, or until the mafia outnumber the townspeople. A typical game starts with seven townspeople and two Mafiosi.

Hall should always play MOAR mafia.

Variants

Live-Action

A live-action variant also exists, that a few hall members participate in. This provides an exception to the "Don't die on hall" rule. The following is a list of Live-Action Mafia deaths that have happened on hall:

Choose Your Own Role Mafia

Invented by Jakob W. and Sammy L. in Fall 2014. Original documentation can be found at [1].

Exactly what it sounds like. Can somehow be played with only two people. Some pizens are attempting to analyze it.

An alternative version, Choose Your Opponent's Role Mafia, was developed and analyzed by Sammy L., Mitchell L., Kevin L., and Max M. in Fall 2015. This one is even crazier than the last.
