Welcome to Nowhere,
Chatterbox: Down to Earth
Welcome to Nowhere,
Welcome to Nowhere, Nebraska*.
And welcome to the Game of Mafia.
Some of you may know this game... some of you might not. This is the CB Edition™.
~~
RULES:
- ten CBers may volunteer to play, and one CBer to narrate. Keep in mind the first person who volunteers to be narrator will be the narrator.
- the narrator will choose a Mafia, a Nurse, and a Detective. The Mafia must choose someone to kill, the Nurse will save someone, and the Detective will accuse someone. Everyone will convene to vote someone innocent or guilty. If the Mafia is caught, the people of Nowhere, Nebraska win. If the Mafia kills everyone, the Mafia wins.
- after ten players and one narrator have been chosen, the ten players will then post a character sheet, posted below. For example, I might first post like this:
Joining!
Submitted by Luminescence, age 12, Atlantis
And then like this:
Name: Jeannie Lucas
[insert the rest of the charrie sheet as directed]
Submitted by Jeannie L., age 12, Silva Vivus Umbrare
Or something like that.
- DO NOT REVEAL YOURSELF, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. Everyone will know which CBer is the Mafia, but they won't know which CHARACTER the CBer is RPing as, and therefore, they will not know which character is the Mafia. Likewise for the Nurse and Detective. So if you reveal which charrie is yours, the game is kind of ruined.
- please don't dispute my rules unless they seem unfair. There are millions of versions of Mafia, and to avoid confusion we are just going to use this set.
- be active! If you join this, you need to not drop out immediately- it's characters reactions that will allow people to decide whether one is guilty or innocent.
- if you have any questions, ask them! I'll be happy to answer. You may also ask Sky NightStar or Bakerloo. See footnote.
- you may not narrate twice in a row, unless no one volunteers to narrate next. You may, however, use the same charrie twice in a row if you want to, but this might reveal you to everyone so I advise not doing it.
- in the next game I might shrink or grow the amount of people, this is a test run. I also might make it so that multiple games can go on at the same time.
- if you are the narrator, please remember you are basically running the game: I don't suggest volunteering for this if you've never played Mafia before or if you don't think you'll be able to keep a commitment.
- Have fun! Hopefully!
- I'm sure it's going to turn out I forgot something haha so sorry in advance.

This looks fun! I've never played Mafia, but it'll be fun to learn because people play it in my class. I'll join!

Just topping :)
Forgot to add that Nowhere, Nebraska, was created by SNS and Bakerloo, not me.

I love Mafia! I'll join.
(March 10, 2021 - 2:21 pm)
No, I don't mind! This is amazing Lumi thank you for taking the time to save all this...
(March 10, 2021 - 2:21 pm)
I've never played, but it looks fun, so I'll join!
(March 10, 2021 - 2:25 pm)
I'll join!

Joining! I love mafia :)

Narrator? I haven’t played before yet though, so could I maybe reserve Narrator for next round? I’ll just join as a player this time!
(March 11, 2021 - 8:16 am)
eek! I would love to join but you may already have too many peopl - if so, I'll join the next round. I missed this game! :D
(March 11, 2021 - 12:36 pm)
Nope, Mary, you're good. Nite, absolutely!
We have one PLAYER spot left and one NARRATOR spot left.
QUALIFICATIONS TO BE NARRATOR:
-The ability to think up at least 9 ways for someone to be murdered. They cannot be graphic and do not need to be realistic. Be as comical as you'd like.
-Familiarity with the game of Mafia
-Ability to keep a commitment
~~
Also I forgot to add that once your charrie is dead, you can still RP as the ghost of your charrie, just no one will be able to talk to you except your fellow ghost.
Also, if you're accused, you'll have one day after the accusation is posted to write your defense.
~~
If no one volunteers to be narrator or player in two days, we'll play with nine players and I'll be the narrator or an existing player can become narrator and I'll be player. If we have a narrator but no player, I'll be the extra player and if we have a tenth player but no narrator I'll be narrator.
~~
You can begin posting your charrie sheets on March 12, which is the deadline to join this game.
On March 17, we will begin the game.

Could I join as a player? Thanks!

I'll be narrating this round, then. Everyone, please begin posting your charrie sheets, and remember, do NOT post as your name. For example:
my first post:
Joining!
submitted by Luminescence, age 12, Atlantis
and then my second post would be my charrie sheet, say for Jeannie Lastname, posted under "Jeannie L., age 12, Silva Vivus Umbrare" or something like that. I would not include my name.
ALSO: I forgot to add this to the charrie sheet; please include your charrie's pronouns.
You have until March 17, when the game will start.
