General Rules

1) Starting and Ending States

: All roles that can communicate at Night may do during pregame. The game will end when one faction has fulfilled its win condition, unless otherwise specified.

2) Day Procedures

: Each player may discuss the game and cast a single vote at a time against people they want to lynch. Day ends when either the deadline hits or a strict majority of the votes are on one person.

3) Voting

: Votes should be in bold in order for them to count, for instance:

Vote: Toby the Waiter

. You may also use the VOTE: tags if you desire. If you wish to vote for a different player, you don't need to unvote. As long as I can tell who you're voting for, I don't care if you abbreviate someone's name when you vote them.

4) No Lynch

: As an alternative to voting for someone, you may Vote: No Lynch, but for it to take effect, enough players must vote No Lynch that it would be impossible to form any other majority.

5) Deadlines

: D1 deadline will be 3 weeks. Every day from then on will have a strict deadline of 2 weeks, unless a ridiculous amount of replacements are needed.

6) Mass Inactivity

: In an act of pure villainy, I may shorten the deadline if I deem the activity level is unsatisfactory. You will be warned if I want you fellows to pick up the pace.

7) Deadline Lynches

: If no single player has enough votes for a lynch at the deadline, the result is No Lynch and the game proceeds to Night. Deadlines are there for a reason.

8) Twilight

: After someone receives the majority vote, everyone may still discuss the game, but votes and unvotes will not be considered - the person voted for by the majority will be lynched regardless. Twilight will last until I waltz in and post a death scene (which can be quite short, but never really long)

9) Night Length and Procedures

: The topic will be locked at Night. If your Role PM specifies that you have a Night Action, you may follow the instructions on that PM to use it. Barring extenuating circumstances, Nights will not last longer than 2 RL days.

10) Night Action Resubmission

: If you have to PM a choice to the mod (i.e. the name of someone you want to kill/protect/investigate), you may change your choice at any time during the Night by sending The Mod another PM with the new choice. The most recent choice will be honored.

11) Night Action Priority

: This game will use natural action resolution, unless otherwise stated by the mod.

12) Bolding Stuff

: Bolding something is how you get the mod to notice it. It's that simple.

13) Mod Color

: If The Mods needs to edit your post, it will be done in

bolded, green font

. Don't impersonate me, or I'll cut off your thumbs and feed them to you.

14) Activity, Prods, and Replacements

: You will be prodded if three days have passed since your last post. You will be replaced if you do not post after another 24 hours, or if you need to be prodded three times throughout the game. If you know ahead of time that you will not be able to participate for at least 48 hours, go ahead and announce it in-thread so nobody (such as the mod) thinks you're lurking. I reserve the right to blacklist flakers or people who maliciously replace out.

15) "Last Words" for replacements

: If you request replacement, you may PM me a message that you would like to have passed on to the person who replaces you.

16) "Bah!" Posts

: If your player slot is killed off, it's probably because people don't want you around. Unless your role specifically states you can keep talking/voting/playing parcheesi with me, you are allowed one informationless "bah" post and then scram til endgame. Special mechanics can of course overlap

17) Outside Discussion

: Don't discuss this game outside of this thread with anyone unless your Role PM lets you do otherwise.

18) Post Editing

: Editing or deleting posts is not allowed (and usually not possible). Doublepost with your changes instead.

19a) Mod and PM quoting

: For role PMs, If you quote it, you will be modkilled. You can send me the reformulation (I'm pretty loose with reformulation) and I will tell you if posting it is allowed or if it needs further modifications. If you quote a PM from me, you will be terminated (barring questions about rules or something).

19b) QTs and Private Communication

: If it is a moderator provided method of communication (i.e., neighbor QT, or masons who can daytalk and use AIM) do not quote it in the thread. Obviously, do not provide links to the QT in any way shape or form.

20) Modkills

: Breaking any of the above three rules (or flagrantly violating Rule 16) will result in you getting modkilled. Modkills can be retroactive. If a living player breaks any of these rules, the day may or may not end, depending on what would disadvantage that player's faction the most. In addition, getting modkilled results in an instant loss for that player, along with my general hatred. In short, follow the rules, don't be a dick.

21) Small/Invisible text

: You may use smaller text if it amuses you, as long as it's not meant to bypass a rule. As in, no hidden messages or shit like that. I will fuck you up for fucking with my game.

22) Win Mentality

: Play to win.

23) Policy

: Have fun. Or else. And remember, it's a game - keep it classy and don't take things personally; everyone's doing what they have to to win.

24) Setup Design

: You can try to outguess the mod, but it's probably pointless. I designed the roles/mechanics first, then randomized an entire list of characters from the source material and just gave them the roles I had already designed. Flavor is pretty useless from a design standpoint.

25) Flavor

: Flavor revolves around the video game SpyParty.

Special Mechanics:

1) There are

three special roles

in the game.

Sniper

: Disguised as a partygoer with a remote controlled sniper watching the party, this person has one third-party objective... discover the Spy and kill them. At night, the Sniper will be able to watch one of the game zones for any sign of the Spy trying to complete objectives. People who are in the watched location will see the Sniper's scope. The Sniper has a one-shot strongman dayvig that he may use... and that one shot will determine whether he wins, or loses. The Sniper also has special information and knows that one of two people is the Double Agent. Double Agent may be town or mafia-aligned.

Spy

: This seemingly innocuous person is town-aligned. They have six potential objectives to achieve, and each time they achieve one of their objectives, a new power will be given out to the town. They may or may not be the only power role at gamestart. The six potential objectives are described below:

- Bug Ambassador: You must move to the location of the Ambassador, then during the night phase, place a bug on the Ambassador.

Hard tell.

- Contact Double Agent: You must move to the same conversation circle as the Double Agent, then during the night phase, contact the Double Agent. Everyone will hear the words "Banana Bread".

Hard tell.

- Swap Statue: You must move to the statues, then during the night phase, swap one of the statues.

Hard tell.

- Inspect Statues: You must move to the statues, then during the night phase, inspect a statue. You must do this two times to complete the objective.

No tell.

- Seduce Target: You must move to the location of the seduction target, then during the night phase, try to seduce them. You must do this two times to complete the objective.

No tell.

- Transfer Microfilm: You must move to either the blue or green bookshelf. Then, during the night phase, you may remove the microfilm from the book and place it back on the shelf. You must then, in a different night phase, go to the other bookshelf and place the microfilm in a book there.

Hard tell.

Hard tells are ones that the Spy can spot, while no tells are ones he won't.

Ambassador

: This presitigious windbag is Ether van Trawn, and he is a special ambassador. He is not targetable, nor is he a player in the game. He is a mod-controlled NPC, and because of his hoity-toityship, he will move before the rest of you during the movement phase. He is only there to serve the purpose of being a target for the Spy's objective.


2) There is a

special phase

in between day and night phase, called the

movement phase

. During this phase, I will announce where the Ambassador has gone, and the rest of you will privately submit to me the location you'd like to move to for the night. Each person MUST submit a location during this phase, or they will be randomized. After this phase is complete, I will post a list of where each person has ended up, and the night phase will begin. You may move to any of the following locations:

Green

Bookshelf (2 spots)

Blue

Bookshelf (2 spots)

The Statues

(3 spots)
Conversation Circle

by the Windows

(5 spots)
Conversation Circle

in the Middle of the Room

(5 spots)

Should more people rush to a certain location than the spot allows, the people that get in will be randomized, and the people who don't get in will have their second location randomized.

3) There are no "Vanilla Townie" roles in this game. Instead, everyone is called a Partygoer... like so:

Welcome to SpyParty Mafia! You will be assuming the role of...

Jim Bondo

Partygoer

Abilities:

Partygoer

: As a simple town partygoer, you have no abilities.

Wincon (Town):

You win when all threats to the town have been eliminated.
