Rules

(References: Equinox, ReaperCharlie, LlamaFluff, Vi, dramonic)

General

1. Be familiar with the sitewide rules and guidelines.
2. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. Use of homophobic, racist, sexist, or any other derogatory slurs falls under this rule. Keep it civil.
3. Play to your win condition.
4. Unless otherwise specified in your role PM or by me, you may not communicate outside of this thread while the game is running.
5. Do not quote or post any screen captures of any private communication to which you have access. This includes game-related PMs, QuickTopics, and instant messaging logs. Paraphrasing is okay.
6. If it is not visible to the naked eye, do not post it. This includes, but is not limited to: invisible text, tiny text, encrypted text, and text hidden within tags. Spoiler text, however, is allowed, as long as it is used within reason.
7. If you have the ability to edit your posts, don't use it in my game.
8. Regular
   dark purple
   - and boldface
   maroon
   -colored text are reserved for the moderator. All other formatting is fair game with the provision that you do not impersonate me or post in hidden text, as covered in another rule.

Activity

1. Prods will be issued to players if they have not posted within a 72-hour period. Players who have been prodded have 48 hours to respond
   in the game thread
   before a replacement is sought.
2. Players who have been prodded 3 times are subject to replacement without further notice. After three prods, replacements will happen upon my discretion. Prod timers re-set with each new game Day.
3. Posting content is an absolute must. If a player posts nothing but prod dodges for an entire game Day, he or she will be subject to replacement upon my discretion.
4. If you anticipate being away for at least 48 hours, please PM me AND post a V/LA notice in the thread with the expected date of your return.

Pre-Game

1. During Pre-Game you will receive your role PM. Confirm by PM, as instructed.
2. Confirmed players will be bolded on the player list. When 17/19 players have confirmed, Day 1 will begin.
3. The mafia may discuss in their QT during pre-game until I instruct them not to.

Day

1. Days will have a fixed deadline of 14 real-time days. Deadline extensions will be granted only in extreme circumstances.
2. Players may vote to No Lynch; a no lynch will occur if a majority of players vote for no lynch or if no majority is achieved by deadline.
3. Lynch is achieved by simple majority.
4. Once majority is reached, no further votes or unvotes will count.
5. Votes should be on a separate line and flushed left, and MUST be bolded (e.g.,
   Vote: Amrun
   ). The same applies to vote revocations (e.g.,
   Unvote
   ). Unvotes are preferred but not necessary when switching votes (e.g.,
   Unvote, Vote: Amrun
   ). Use of the vote tags (e.g., VOTE: Amrun) is optional. Abbreviations are okay as long as it's clear for whom the vote is made.
6. If I think it's a vote, it is a vote.
7. All players, including the lynched player, are allowed to discuss in twilight phase until I post the death scene.
8. Dead players may make one "Bah!" post that contains no game-related content, but it must also contain a picture of a sheep and/or the word "OTTERCOCKS"

Night

1. Nights in this game will have a 72 hour deadline, and I reserve as much as 24 hours after that to process actions and post the flavor scene.
2. Players who have a night action to submit must send it in before the announced deadline. I accept provisional actions up until the announced deadline, at which time I will use the last action submitted.

Moderator Actions

1. Flavor is for entertainment purposes only and has no significance in the game.
2. If there is an error in the vote count or something similar, bold your concern in the thread. Please PM me for all other issues.
3. Violations of these rules will result in consequences. Pretending to violate these rules will also result in consequences. What those consequences are depend on the severity of the action and on the game state.
4. Any situation not covered above will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

I reserve the right to add, modify, or remove rules as necessary. I will notify you of all changes in the thread.

Please PM me if you need clarification on anything in the rules.


Here is an example of a town role that may or may not appear in the game:

Constituent

– You are a regular citizen, but you can make your voice heard by utilizing your ability to vote.

The paraphrase of your role is “Vanilla Townie.”

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

Please confirm by returning the paraphrase of your role via PM.

RC, do you have any

exactly one

player other than yourself named in your PM? Yes/no only.

[RedCoyote]

Oh, but what if I'm a mason? Now you didn't exactly account for that in your hard hitting questions, did you? Even Iec can be trip up every now and then.

Shit. How about two week deadlines? Only I have a feeling that with this large of a group we may have some scrambling toward the end. That's usually the case with large themes.

Vote: Iecerint

Going for the rolefishing a bit too early, aren't we?

[Iecerint]

Oh, but what if I'm a mason? Now you didn't exactly account for that in your

hard hitting

questions, did you?

Why are you interpreting my question as a threat (re: bold)? Because I specified "

exactly one

," it should have been obvious that I was not referencing your alignment.

[Quaroath]

Oh, but what if I'm a mason? Now you didn't exactly account for that in your

hard hitting

questions, did you?

Why are you interpreting my question as a threat (re: bold)? Because I specified "

exactly one

," it should have been obvious that I was not referencing your alignment.

I find your question to be interesting, because to would imply that you have "exactly one" other name in your role PM, or you have strong reason to believe that there are references of this nature in role PM's, and you are fishing for others. Hence, rolefishing.

Or you are trying to imply that you aren't scum because due to the size of the game, it is unlikely we have two person teams and you have only one in yours?

Begs the question, why are you asking people if they have *exactly one* other name in their role PM, and why RC at that? Do you have reason to think he would or would not have exactly one name in his role pm?

vote Icerint

because frankly your question, and response to RC's post it a bit bizarre.

Rolefishing BAD.

That's a terrible attempt at starting a wagon. He's scum because he used a lot of words?

[Fujiko]

vote Icerint

because frankly your question, and response to RC's post it a bit bizarre.

I admit I found this question really odd as well.
Iecerint, why ask it as such, and any particularly reason you asked it of RC?

[Fujiko]

(particularly = particular. Let's pretend I can use words)

[Iecerint]

This has been an interesting page 1.

Yes, I have reasons for my question's content, form, and addressee. Why this requires explicit mention eludes me.

[Fujiko]

Yes, I have reasons for my question's content, form, and addressee. Why this requires explicit mention eludes me.

Requires? Of course not.

I figured, hey. I'll ask. I'll either learn why someone is doing something I don't understand, or learn that they don't want to tell me, which is itself enlightening.

[YYR]

He's scum because he's asking a bunch of contrived questions that will need nowhere and an over-explanation of rolefishing.

Scumhunting 101 lesson here, call someone out for being specific in why he doesn't like something.

[Seraphim]

I agree with the Quar wagon. Looks like typical overjustification to start a wagon. However, RC's response to Ice's question is terrible and I can't believe that people aren't looking at that more deeply. A simple yes/no or even a "I don't want to answer that question" would have sufficed. It's clear that Ice has information in his role PM and is trying to use it to his best advantage. Or, if he doesn't, he is reaction testing(which I, admittedly, frown upon, so I hope it's not that). He's not "rolefishing." He's not looking for a claim. He's looking for specific information in RC's role PM.

So, the RC wagon should cease and desist immediately. All of its members are on the scumlist. Quaroath looks the worst, then NS, then RC himself. JohHog's strawmanning of the wagon also earns him scumpoints.

Vote: Quaroath

[Seraphim]

Holy shit, scum caught as of post 21.

[ProsecutorGodot]

Now that I don't have to fear giving away MS on my school's filters, let's assess the damages so far.

I don't see much point in rolefishing, but I don't like RC's reaction to it, either. Stating that he could be a mason gives me the impression that he isn't and has something else to hide about his role when a protown player doesn't need to come off like that. However, Iecerint's reply with another question puzzles me as well. So does RC's return-fire vote. I'm getting the feeling they're trying to distance in a very blunt manner.
