Quick Links:

Rules (format and majority of rules shamelessly stolen from Juls):

Game Mechanics

1.)
Votes must be
bolded
or contained within vote tags and in a form similar to Vote: Playername. If I do not see your vote, it will not count. Unvotes are nice but not required.
2.)
Unless it is explicitly stated in your role PM that you can do so, do not talk about this game outside of the game thread. All players who are allowed communication outside of the thread
must wait until the moderator states in thread, quicktopic, or PM that communication may commence.

3.)
Lynches require a majority of votes (50% of the active players +1). If a 50% + 1 majority is not reached by deadline the game will progress to night with no lynch.
4.)
Voting for
No Lynch
require only 50% of the vote to occur.
5.)
If a lynch occurs, the game enters twilight and players may continue to talk in thread until it is locked and a lynch scene is posted. No votes/unvotes will count in twilight.
6.)
Once you are killed/lynched you may have a single "bah" post consisting of the word “bah” and that’s it.

Deadlines/Activity

7.)
Deadlines for each game day will be 2 weeks.
8.)
If a replacement is required within the second week of a deadline period, 24 hours per RL day it takes to find a replacement will be added to the deadline of the current day.
9.)
Treat this game as a commitment. If you are going to be V/LA please post in thread or send me a PM.
10.)
Players must post
every 48 hours
(unless they have noted V/LA) or they will be prodded. Weekend days count as 12 hours each. An excessive amount of prods during the game will result in a replacement. Players may request prods of other players at anytime but I will use my discretion when sending these types of prods (I won't be your personal spam-bot).
11.)
If a player fails to pick up their prod within 48 hours they will be replaced.
12.)
Each night will last approximately 48 hours, during which time all night actions must be submitted via PM.

General

13.)
All Mafia Scum Rules apply in this game. Please read and obey them.
14.)
Have fun and be respectful to your fellow players.
15.)
Do not speak about this game outside of the thread unless your role specifies that you may do so.
16.) Do not quote anything from the moderator that is said outside of this thread (including role PMs) or pretend to quote anything from the moderator. Paraphrasing is allowed but if you are questioning your paraphrase, run it by the moderator first.

17.)
If the moderator makes a mistake, please address your grievance
in bold
in thread or in PM. Please point out vote count errors in thread only.
18.)
Do not edit posts. Do not use invisible text. Do not use small text.
19.)
Do not use cryptography.
20.)
Purple
is the moderators color. Do not use it.
21.)
The moderator reserves the right to add/change/delete rules. If this occurs, a notice will be posted in thread.
22.)
If a role PM or other game rule is misunderstood by the player or a rule is not made completely clear, the moderator reserves the right to correct the rule or PM based on its intent. The moderator guarantees that changes or corrections of these nature will be considered for overall fairness and game balance.
23.)
Most importantly, play to win. Gamethrowing will not be tolerated.

Game Specific Rules

1)
This game has partial no reveal. This means that character name and alignment color only will be posted. The color
green
will be what is typically considered to be town. If you are color-blind let the moderator know so he may state it more explicitly.

The literal version of The Buggles' classic Video Killed the Radio Star is being sent around email chains but by the time you try to access it you find out it's already been pulled from Youtube. You make the mistake of looking at the comments and in betwixt and between all the racism and homophobia there's a message from someone called DTH2LTRLVDS, "Were coming 4 u all of u!!!". And you're all literal videos, someone is coming for you? What if they're already here? You need to stop them before you're prevented from spreading the good humur you were created to bring.

Game will begin when 12 of 13 players have confirmed.

RVS wagon with anti-medical establishment and anti-organized religion elements ho!

VOTE: DrChrist

NOTE
- Since this is a partial reveal game
ALL
lynches require a claim before hammering. This should be abundantly clear to anyone who understands the deficit that Town is put at when a Town player dies via lynch without being allowed to claim. I'll be treating any quickhammers made without the lynchee claiming as scum claims if they are on a Town player.

Pretty much Geriatric game restricted at this point ... unless there are players I REALLY want to play with.

Requiring that all claim before lynch is fine, but if someone is obv stalling I will hammer without prejudice. The hardline stance is not something you should try to define like this, Mr. Third On The Wagon Scum.

I'll define any hardline stance I wish. When someone is requested to claim and stalls for a significant amount of time (aka beyond prod range) that generally a signal they are scum anyway so my stance really doesn't care about them.

In post 7, AurorusVox wrote:How will you treat quickhammers without claims against scum players?


With celebrations. Scum are not going to be truthful with their claims most of the time anyway. Town will (or more precisely should) be. I'm more concerned with situations where Town players are prevented from giving out their information that could be useful in later game situations.

I knew a guy named Riggs once, I didn't like him much.


I didn't realize this was limited reveal, how annoying. I agree with what MOI says, claims before hammers are a must.

Good and sensible Town play leaves a bad taste in your mouth? I'll have to note that when assessing your play then.

So Konowa - why so eager to abandon the RVS mini wagon on DrChrist before he even posts?

What you are suggesting is good and sensible town play -in theory-.
By saying that quickhammers on scum will be celebrated is not a town mindset given your previous statement.
It feels anti-town and letting scum have wiggle room.

Because you're scum.

Vote: MoI


A player hammering a scum player is just as reckless as if they were hammering a town player, because unless that player is bussing (i.e. knows the lynchee is scum), they're potentially hammering town without a claim, something you would be suspicious of. If you think we should wait for claims before lynching, I fail to see see why you would be happy for someone to hammer prematurely on a player of alignment-unknown to them.

It's not only good play 'in theory' ... it's good play all the time.

Why exactly is saying that I would celebrate a scum quicklynch not a Town mindset again? Please explain in detail why it isn't. I'm very curious at your line of logic there.

Also please explain what you mean by 'wiggle room'. I need a better picture of what you are trying to convey.

You are missing the point apparently Mr. Orange.

A quickhammer on scum is good because by definition it is a lynch on scum. Does it give the player who quickhammered any Town cred with me? Nope. But again - it certainly doesn't hurt Town to have scum lynched and said quickhammered much more likely to be a busser. We should wait for all claims but a quicklynch on scum doesn't hurt Town's information jap as scum aren't going to claim anything we can count on.

You can't verbalize on your own and are leaning on someone else to do the work for you. That's good enough for me to vote you at this stage. Now I will wait for the rest of the players to weigh in on this little exchange of ours.

MOI - the issue I see is you jump right out of the gate throwing out a statement that looks like something someone who is town would say, thus trying to force people into deciding right away if you are town or not naturally. It's like that last game we played together when i accused you of trying too hard, again you are doing it here.

There was no point in bringing up the fact that nobody should hammer without a claim on page 1. Let someone get close enough to a lynch before we start talking about that.

If he didn't do something similar in the other game I would be worried about him, but this seems like par for the course for MOI

Rob, so would you say he knows his own meta and thus is alignment null for it?

I think he is probably aware of his own meta,
good
& experienced players are aware of their own meta. I will say MOI is probably an experienced player, based on how he played vs me last game I would not label him a good player.

Vote:Bitmap
Just because

I agree that the claims are a must, but did it even need to be said? I would have thought it standard to ask for a claim before hammering. Agree with Kor about if the player is stalling.

Also, what if its nearing deadline and that person isn't on to claim? I wouldn't want the day to end, so I would hammer first and ask questions later in that case
