    I think that's just my innate trait. I think I do more controversial things while scum, take more risk, more arguments etc.

    Well, except for the kidnapping game. :blobwoah:

    Heya!~
    Well, as a basis:
    The game can go on for pretty long; we're talking days and weeks here.
    That said, it's at least partially so long because you're not meant to be there the whole time; that way, you can show up whenever you want, basically.

    The Game, at the basics, consists of two factions working against each other: town and mafia.
    Mafia has the advantage of knowledge; they know who their teammates are.
    Town has the advantage of numbers; they tend to outnumber mafia about... 3 to 1? I think, yeah

    The goal for town is to weed out the mafia in their midst; the goal for mafia is to reduce town numbers to a managable level.

    How this works, is that the game is divided into two phases - titularly called day phase and night phase. (With each phase being either 24h or 48h, as a standard)

    During the day phase, any player may talk in the main game thread; some games will have certain levels of activity required. Generally 5 posts within 24h (so 10 for 48h day phases). This is merely meant to ensure that a player doesn't just not show up at all; in an actual game, that really isn't much.

    The central point of the day phases is called a lynch - basically, all players vote on who to lynch. This is the ability of the Town factio to weed out mafia - since town has superior numbers, and the lynch only lynches the person with the most votes, town has an advantage here.
    Though, as town has no knowledge of who is who, it isnt rare for a town to get lynched either.

    The other phase is the night phase - here, talking in the main game thread is stopped and any night actions may take place. Paramount there being that the mafia, in a different, hidden place decide collectively on a player to get rid of as a group, or coordinate future actions, or just talk with each other.
