dont blame me hehe
i recommend you to watch houseki no kuni. i really enjoyed this one. is it great? nah but i think the manga is great since it have more stuff in it, and comedy work better there. but the anime is fine in my opinion. maybe u will like it.
Hello :)
I have noticed that you watched Hyouge Mono. sorry if this is out of nowhere, but i really like Hyouge Mono that i actually browsed people who have watched it. Do you mind if i have some discussion with you about the show? i thirst for people who like to discuss it. the thing is most people i know didnt watch it or dont like to discuss things. again i am sorry for coming out of no where, but i dont really know how to start a conversation.

Attack on Titan Mafia S2 (ongoing) hosted by Coelestin
Join the Survey Corps on the journey towards freedom. But beware, the enemy is hiding in your own ranks... Opfert eure Herzen! An open setup game based on the second season of Attack on Titan (spoilers ahead!). Spectate here!
Eeveelution Mafia (ongoing) hosted by Togs and Kit

Hydra Mafia (ongoing) hosted by _Claire_ and Togs
A hydra game is one where each two players are paired into a single account with which both will post. Thus, with 9 roles in play, there are 18 participants, all trying to balance their reads between the two players of each hydra account to come to a conclusion on its alignment. This particular game is run on Discord, where multi-accounting is more forgiven, but it is possible to ask the host for a spectator seat if you have a Discord account yourself. Thread here!
Mafia Tip #9: Compulsive Role
Quite often, in mafia games, you may encounter terms or expressions that you don't understand. To appease this frustration, this section titled "Mafia tips" will introduce you to some of the mafia terms and such that might help you speak on the same level as some other players. Hopefully, not only you will be more knowledgeable but you will also be able to use these tips in the games!
The term of this month is compulsive!
Compulsive is a role modifier such that the role must use its Night Action each Night unless some external factor prevents the player from doing so. A player with a Compulsive action cannot submit "No Action", and if they fail to submit an action, the player is either modkilled or the action/the action's target is randomized. The most common role with this modifier is Vigilante.
The Compulsive modifier is generally used to ensure that actions are used when possible. This is usually ascribed to roles that are pivotal to the setup. By making a Vigilante Compulsive, the rate of death can be controlled throughout the game, thus allowing the game to be easier to balance.

Mafia Tip #8: Meta
Quite often, in mafia games, you may encounter terms or expressions that you don't understand. To appease this frustration, this section titled "Mafia tips" will introduce you to some of the mafia terms and such that might help you speak on the same level as some other players. Hopefully, not only you will be more knowledgeable but you will also be able to use these tips in the games!
The term of this month is meta!
Meta, short for metagame, is a term for the knowledge of how a player or moderator will act based on previous experience. It only makes sense that people will pick up on, say, an ordinarily active player lurking in the games where they are scum. Likewise, some moderators state outright that they will never use Cops in their games.
The application of this kind of knowledge is called metagaming, or more strainedly "metaing". This is simply extrapolating the existing meta knowledge to the current game. In the case of the active player who only lurks as scum, it makes sense to extend that to say that if they are lurking in the present game, they are more likely to be scum and should be treated accordingly. Likewise in the case of the moderator who does not use Cops, if one of the players in their game claims Cop, players will be much more apt to consider it a false claim.
Players who manage to bring about the appearance of looking and behaving the same way regardless of alignment become tough to read, as they are best judged by their actions in thread. This takes time to do, which means that these players are frequently not lynched Day 1.

Mafia Tip #7: Breadcrumbing
Quite often, in mafia games, you may encounter terms or expressions that you don't understand. To appease this frustration, this section titled "Mafia tips" will introduce you to some of the mafia terms and such that might help you speak on the same level as some other players. Hopefully, not only you will be more knowledgeable but you will also be able to use these tips in the games!
The term of this month is breadcrumbing!
A breadcrumb is a subtle and concealed reference to your own role, actions, or results. As such, it is a way to soft-claim your role, and to reveal sensitive information without making it evident to everyone that you're doing so. Another advantage to breadcrumbing is that it provides reliance to any claim you make later on - if you claim to be a particular role and show a breadcrumb from very early in the game that reinforces your claim, it directly implies that you have been preparing to make this claim from the beginning of the game.
Scum have been known to breadcrumb roles as well; if the role they breadcrumbed became inconvenient to claim, they simply do not point them out later. Lastly, an obvious breadcrumb, much like any role claim will draw the scum's attention and could place that player at the top of the list of players they have an interest in killing, so be careful.
Example: I haven't played with anyone here before, should be fun. Anyone here a total newb? Myself and the other guy are experienced, let me know if you have any questions. Conversation hasn't really started yet, so it's random vote time. Obviously, the guy above me can't be scum, his avatar is too cute. Perhaps it's a ploy, though... The message is "I AM COP".

Mafia Tip #5: Cults
Quite often, in mafia games, you may encounter terms or expressions that you don't understand. To appease this frustration, this section titled "Mafia tips" will introduce you to some of the mafia terms and such that might help you speak on the same level as some other players. Hopefully, not only you will be more knowledgeable but you will also be able to use these tips in the games!
The term of this month is Cults!
The cult is a third-party group (one which does not belong to the mafia nor the townies) that seeks to recruit players into itself. The recruitment is done by a Cult Leader who typically starts the game by being alone in his so-called cult. Each Night, he can recruit one player into his Cult; the recruited players henceforth lose their previous role identities (and their alignment of either mafia or townie) and become Cultists. The Cult is a rather passive group since it does not do any killing, however it can take over the game very quickly - if it is not exterminated within the first two game Days, it almost inevitably wins (according to statistics). The Cult wins when it comprises half of the player list, at which time it controls the lynch votes.
Recruited Cultists usually do not have the ability to recruit players themselves, so if the Cult Leader dies, the Cultists are defenseless but must survive until they attain a majority. This can be difficult to do, especially if the Cult Leader only lives long enough to recruit one Cultist. Some hosts allow Cultists to recruit players if the Cult Leader dies. However, this becomes completely impossible to balance, as there is virtually no chance of the Cult ever being completely wiped out.
A problem arises when a mafia member is recruited into a Cult, because he could ruin the game by telling who his mafia buddies were. Some hosts kill off the member instead of making him recruited, others leave him alive but replace him with a new player who doesn't know who the other mafia members are, others just let it slide and aren't bothered by the potential exposition of the whole mafia team, and others simply don't include a mafia faction in the game to begin with.

Mafia Tip #4: LyLo and MyLo
Lynch-or-Lose, or LyLo, is a game state wherein the Town must lynch scum during the present Day phase or they will lose the game (often by being endgamed by scum). It is also called Lynch-right-or-lose.
It is generally easy to tell when a game is in LyLo because there will only be one more Town player alive than the number of scum. For instance, if there are five players alive and two of them are scum (thus three of them are Town), the game is in LyLo. This can be adjusted for the presence of multiple killing groups, but the premise remains the same.
Mislynch-and-Lose, or MyLo, is a game state where the Town will lose if it mislynches during the present Day phase. MyLo usually happens when there are only two townies more than the number of mafia (ex. 2-4 or 3-5). This is different from LyLo in that LyLo requires the Town to lynch correctly, whereas in MyLo the Town is still afforded the opportunity to No Lynch without forfeiting the game (though this generally makes the next Day LyLo).
While the opportunity for No Lynch is available in MyLo, whether it should be done is a different question. On the upside, by refusing to lynch the Town may be able to give its investigative roles another chance to work their magic. On the downside, if the Town has already massclaimed or if there are no roles that can make use of the Night remaining, opting not to lynch will simply give the scum a free kill on the Townie who is most likely to help the Town lynch correctly at LyLo.

Mafia Tip #3: Disadvantages of Inactivity As of late, we have encountered many incidents regarding inactivity in mafia games, which is both troublesome and disrespectful to the host and your fellow players, especially because of the consequences that comes with it. For instance, in a precise Role Madness game where every role is crucial to win, being inactive can potentially cripple your team—affecting the game’s balance, and possibly ruin the game for those who are putting effort into achieving their wincon. If you’re unable to participate any further because of unexpected events, make sure to contact the host right away so they can find a replacement and keep the game moving. Furthermore, we advise that you consider your availability prior signing up as you could be taking up a spot for someone will be able fully participate without any doubts of future events hindering their availability.

New Year!
The staff of Mafia Society would like to wish everyone a happy new year! The club has managed to keep rolling well this year too, and we need to thank the members for conserving an interest in the games we are holding. We also need to accredit the new players that appeared throughout 2016. If you yourself have not tried out a game yet, do not hesitate to drop by in the club - you will be welcomed by open arms and supportive minds. We believe that participating in forum games along with people who are there to have as much fun as you is a truly rewarding experience. Let's have a great time again in 2017!
Christmas Event
The Christmas event that was held in December of 2016 (which included various activities such as a Christmas-themed mafia game, a Secret Santa, and the 12 Days of Christmas), was without a doubt a lovely success. We thank everyone who participated and who made the merrymaking more vibrant, and even if you didn't, we still hope you had wonderful holidays.
Mafia Tip #2: Lurking
Quite often, in mafia games, you may encounter terms or expressions that you don't understand. To appease this frustration, this section titled "Mafia tips" will introduce you to some of the mafia terms and such that might help you speak on the same level as some other players. Hopefully, not only you will be more knowledgeable but you will also be able to use these tips in the games!
The term of this month is Lurking!
Lurking is the act of intentionally not posting during a game Day. This is not to be confused with not having access at all.
Lurking is a profoundly defensive strategy. In exchange for not providing any information to the Town, lurkers render themselves very difficult to lynch due to the lack of information needed to build a convincing reason to lynch them. These are both negative traits as far as the Town is concerned; in addition to being unhelpful for finding others' alignments, they're unhelpful for displaying their own. Thus, lurking is a preferable strategy for scum if they are allowed to get away with it, as they provide no help to the Town and can simply wait as the active players self-destruct on each other.
Power roles such as Doctor or Cop may deliberately avoid posting so as to avoid the scum's notice, thereby avoiding the nightly kills until it is time for them to claim. Alternatively, some players believe that it is best to sit on the sidelines during Day 1 and pick up the pieces on subsequent Days after there is information to go on. Taking this into account, it is wise to be careful when using lurking as a reason to read someone as scum.

Mafia Tip#6: Anti Town Vs Town
This really should seem obvious, but don't do things that are blatantly anti-Town unless you're sure you know what you're doing. Some examples would be claiming very early in the game (especially unprompted and especially if you are a power role), disobeying the Town when your actions are being "directed", faking an obstructive post restriction, etc. Some sample reasons given for doing these sorts of things include attempts to start discussion, spite, or attempting to uphold a meta ("well you should have known better; I always do this"). None of those reasons will justify the actions to anyone except yourself, and you can expect to get lynched as well as to be on the receiving end of plenty of complaints about your play in the long-reaching future.
