You walk in on an anonymous party that you were invited to. Everyone was wearing masks, including you. The night is still young, the full moon was shining brightly. The ballroom was very large and luxurious. It was designed with gold aesthetics and is lit with beautiful shades of pink, violet, and red. You sit, hoping someone would talk to you, but you only hear a woman rapping on the background. After what seems like an hour, you hear the music change. A group of masked dancers went on stage. They danced and welcomed someone -- The Queen of Rap, Nicki Minaj.
Afterwards, someone walked in front of the stage with a creepy mask as the dancers. Someone delivered a mic to her. She smiled at everyone. You can tell based on the movement of the mask. She began talking and explained why you are here.
"Welcome, Barbs and Kens to our Masquerade Ball! You are here to celebrate the reign of our one and true Queen of Rap, Nicki Minaj. However, you are not here to dance and socialize, you are here to play a game." She said. She reached onto one of her hidden pockets and grabbed a what seems like a remote controller. She clicked a big button and a large screen appeared. You read it and realized it was the rules, setup, and the mechanics of the game.
This is a 13 player setup. 10 Townies and 3 Mafias.
The game will include four phases: pre-dance, first dance, intermission, and second dance instead of the usual nights and days.
One player will be confirmed as town at the game start.
At pre-game, players will only be sent their alignment: Town or Mafia.
During the pre-dance, a Gentleman can ask a Lady to the dance in the thread. Each Lady can accept only one dance proposal. Please bold if you wanna ask someone if you're a gentleman and if you wanna accept a proposal if you're a lady.
At the end of the pre-dance, any player who doesn't have a dance partner will be asked to leave the dance. (death)
Each dance pair will then become Lovers, and they will be given a private chat to discuss the game.
During the dances, normal NIGHTLESS lynch mechanics will take over. This means that a lynch will not move to night, instead it's still day, and you can still lynch another pair.
First dance will end if there are 8 players or fewer left alive or deadline is reached. During the intermission, Mafia may secretly force one of the dance pairs to leave (kill them). Second dance will then begin, and continue until the game's end.
Also, at any point during the dance, a player may voluntarily leave (he/she dies and his/her alignment flips), which forces his/her partner to leave as well. This means they'll die. Please don't forget to BOLD if you're going to leave the dance.
I’ve never done a mafia game before, but I’ve seen them pop up and this one looks interesting. I may need some guidance, but could I join? If so, I’ll be a lady, like I am irl.

Hi, and welcome we’re always very supportive of new players! Mafia games may sound confusing at first, but once you get used to them they’re very simple and very fun! If at any time you want to ask a question, feel free to pop it on the thread and we’ll be sure to clarify what’s going on
Ooh! Keyen, this was so much fun when you last hosted it -- and I love your pictures of the dancers and how you segued into the rules and mechanics. Nicely done.
If I were the dancer on the far left, I'd be a little miffed that my skirt isn't as voluminous as the others I'd want a poofy skirt.
Can't play -- too busy for long-term game commitment. But I'd be interested in afterlife.

Welcome! This is my second online mafia ever. Here's a tip: don't be afraid to ask questions. People from Icey's most recent game know what I mean XD
I don't really understand the setup. Kinda confusing. I got lost after the intermission part.
And what do you mean a player can voluntarily leave? Why would they do that? To kill off the partner if they think the partner is scum?
precisely.
...so if one in the couple dies, so does the other?
Yep. You can do this if you think your partner is scum. Both my partner and I considered leaving when I played this, but then we got lynched anyway and we were both town, lol

Sorry Keyen, I'm so indecisive is it too late to ask if I can be a lady instead they sound like a more enjoyable role
...so if one in the couple dies, so does the other?
Yeah.
Yep. You can do this if you think your partner is scum. Both my partner and I considered leaving when I played this, but then we got lynched anyway and we were both town, lol
