Rules​
  • If you have any questions about rules or game setup or need clarification on a specific issue, please PM me. Do not post these questions on the thread. If the question is something that I feel that needs to be addressed for all players, I will post a Mod Note in the thread.
  • Votes must be made by bolding or starring a player’s name (ex: Townie or ***Townie***). If you would like to switch your vote from one player to another, please indicate this clearly by using language such as “switch to ***Townie***.” We will try to provide frequent vote counts, this will help tremendously in making sure these vote counts are accurate.
  • Two missed votes will result in a AA, no exceptions.
  • If there is a vote count that you do not think is accurate, DO NOT POST AS SUCH IN THE THREAD. Refer to Rule #1 and send me a PM, preferably with what is the correct vote tabulation and/or what post # contains a different vote than what I have listed.
  • Day rounds will end at 10:30:59am/1:30:59pm/4:30:59 pm Eastern Time unless otherwise indicated in a Mod Note. Night talking will be allowed in this game but no votes will be counted at night, unless two or more players are tied at the end of a day round, in which an instant OT will start. The first additional vote on a player in the tie will instantly end the round and that player will die. No dead talking is allowed.
  • There will be no majorities in this game.
  • Every player will receive a PM with their role, including vanilla civs. PMs may not be discussed and/or posted in the game thread. If you decide to claim your role, you may not copy and paste your role PM. Roles may have restrictions surrounding claims.
  • The mafia team will receive safe claims.
  • Order of Operations is as follows:
    • Passing of the Ring
    • Roleblocking abilities
    • Investigate
    • Night kills (all operate simultaneously)
    • Subsequent ring passing as needed upon death
  • Other general rules: No editing or deleting posts, No repping of posts, No cheating.
The Factions​
After a long period of peace in Middle Earth, a darkness has begun to descend, stretching from the Misty Mountains to Hobbiton. Sauron is raising an army of Dark Forces, but in order to take over Middle Earth, he requires the One Ring. Frodo and the Fellowship, with help from others, must take the ring to Mt Doom and destroy it to save his precious Hobbiton from certain destruction. And one character slinks alongside, trying to get the ring for himself, all his own. The factions in this game are:
  • Fellowship of the Ring
  • Helpful Others
  • Dark Forces of Sauron
  • Gollum
The One Ring​
Each faction has a win condition tied to other factions dying and having and/or destroying the ring at the end of the game. The ring can be passed from player to player either purposely via PMing the mod any time during the day or passively by a player dying with the ring. In order to pass a ring between players, PM a moderator with a board handle, not a role name. A mod will announce that the ring has been passed but give no more information than that. If a player dies with the ring, there is a 50% chance it falls into the hands of a random member of the Fellowship/Helpfuls, 25% chance it falls into a member of the Dark Forces, and 25% chance it falls to Gollum.

Numbers, Indy, Gollum:

Gollum: Each night you may choose between hitting and investigation immune. If all the Forces of Darkness are destroyed you may opt for both choices. Your identity is never at risk of being discovered by the Witch King of Angmar. If you die with the ring during a night turn, it will be returned to a random member of town. You may pass the ring to another player at any time, day or night by PMing a moderator your instructions. If the ring is destroyed, you automatically die.

Win Condition: You win if you are the last player alive and you have the one ring.

Eagles, Fellowship, Frodo:

Frodo: Your goal, above all else, is to stay alive and ensure the ring doesn’t fall into the hands of the Forces of Darkness. You start the game with the One Ring in your possession. Keep it secret, keep it safe. If you hold on to the ring for more than two consecutive days, the Dark Forces learn the name of the character with the ring. If you make it to night 6 alive, and you have the ring, you may PM me to drop it in Mount Doom, and if 2 or fewer Forces of Darkness remain, the ring will be destroyed. If more than 2 Forces of Darkness remain, you may try again each successive night. Once you are dead, others within the fellowship may attempt to drop the ring in Mount Doom as well.

Win Condition: You win if the One Ring is destroyed and your faction (Fellowship and other helpfuls) outnumbers the Forces of Darkness.


Nonny, Fellowship, Gimli:

Gimli: As a dwarf, you are very proud, and your contribution to the Fellowship is your wit and wisdom, though you are stubborn indeed. You have the power with your axe to make one night hit by PMing the moderators a name. If you obtain and hold on to the ring for more than two consecutive days, mafia learns the name of the character with the ring. If you make it to night 6 alive, and you have the ring, you may PM me to drop it in Mount Doom, and if 2 or fewer Forces of Darkness remain, the ring will be destroyed. If more than 2 Forces of Darkness remain, you may try again each successive night. Once you are dead, others within the fellowship may attempt to drop the ring in Mount Doom as well.

Win Condition: You win if the One Ring is destroyed and your faction (Fellowship and other helpfuls) outnumbers the Forces of Darkness.

GAT, Fellowship, Aragorn:

Aragorn: (2 shot vig) As a skilled Ranger and heir to the throne of Men, you have been given a very powerful sword, Andúril. With it, you may make a night kill on two different nights by PMing the moderators a name. If you obtain and hold on to the ring for more than two consecutive days, Dark Forces learn the name of the character with the ring. If you make it to night 6 alive, and you have the ring, you may PM me to drop it in Mount Doom, and if 2 or fewer Forces of Darkness remain, the ring will be destroyed. If more than 2 Forces of Darkness remain, you may try again each successive night. Once you are dead, others within the fellowship may attempt to drop the ring in Mount Doom as well.

Win Condition: You win if the One Ring is destroyed and your faction (Fellowship and other helpfuls) outnumbers the Forces of Darkness.

GoalieMom, Helpful, Arwen:

Arwen: Trying desperately to find Aragorn. Twice during the game at night, if you think you’ve identified Aragorn, you may be willing to sacrifice yourself for him by sending the mods a PM asking to protect Aragorn. If someone attempts to hit the player you’ve submitted, and that player is Aragorn, that night, their hit will fail and you will die. They will not die. You may carry the ring for Frodo without bearing any of the penalties Frodo bears for it, meaning you can wear it without risking the Witch King of Angmar knowing, and if you die, the ring is automatically returned to town. You may not destroy the ring yourself, that must be done by a member of the Fellowship. You may pass the ring to another player at any time, day or night by PMing a moderator your instructions.

Win Condition: You win if the One Ring is destroyed and your faction (Fellowship and other helpfuls) outnumbers the Forces of Darkness.

redwing, Fellowship, Sam:

Sam: You love Frodo and would do anything for him. If Frodo dies, you will be completely heartbroken, restricted to posting three times per day. You may carry the ring for Frodo without bearing any of the penalties Frodo bears for it, meaning you can wear it without risking the Witch King of Angmar knowing, and if you die, the ring is automatically returned to town. If you make it to night 6 alive, and you have the ring, you may PM me to drop it in Mount Doom, and if 2 or fewer Forces of Darkness remain, the ring will be destroyed. If more than 2 Forces of Darkness remain, you may try again each successive night. Once you are dead, others within the fellowship may attempt to drop the ring in Mount Doom as well.

Win Condition: You win if the One Ring is destroyed and your faction (Fellowship and other helpfuls) outnumbers the Forces of Darkness.

dv7, Fellowship, Pippin:

Pippin: You are a mason searching for Merry. You may PM the moderators once each night asking if another player is Merry. If you find Merry successfully, you will be given a private chat link. If you obtain and hold on to the ring for more than two consecutive days, mafia learns the name of the character with the ring. If you make it to night 6 alive, and you have the ring, you may PM me to drop it in Mount Doom, and if 2 or fewer Forces of Darkness remain, the ring will be destroyed. If more than 2 Forces of Darkness remain, you may try again each successive night. Once you are dead, others within the fellowship may attempt to drop the ring in Mount Doom as well.

Win Condition: You win if the One Ring is destroyed and your faction (Fellowship and other helpfuls) outnumbers the Forces of Darkness.

bym, Fellowship, Legolas:

Legolas: (Angel) As an Elf, you are skilled in the healing forces that thousands of years of wisdom have imparted upon your race. On two separate nights you may impart protection upon any player you wish by sending the moderator a PM with a name. If you obtain and hold on to the ring for more than two consecutive days, mafia learns the name of the character with the ring. If that player is targeted at night, the hit will fail. If multiple players target the same player in one night, the hit will succeed. If you make it to night 6 alive, and you have the ring, you may PM me to drop it in Mount Doom, and if 2 or fewer Forces of Darkness remain, the ring will be destroyed. If more than 2 Forces of Darkness remain, you may try again each successive night. Once you are dead, others within the fellowship may attempt to drop the ring in Mount Doom as well.

Hidden: Your protectee will be notified that they were protected, but not who protected them

Win Condition: You win if the One Ring is destroyed and your faction (Fellowship and other helpfuls) outnumbers the Forces of Darkness.

parlay, Sauron's Forces, Witch King of Angmar:

Witch King of Angmar: You may send a PM to a moderator each night if you think a player has the ring. The moderator will return the message: “has the ring” or “does not have the ring.”

Win condition: You win if your Dark Forces have equal or more members alive than remaining civs or the ring can no longer be destroyed or possessed by non-mafia members. Thus, if the ring has been destroyed you may still win if your forces outnumber civs, and if it hasn’t, you win if Gollum is dead and nobody alive is able to destroy the ring.
