Rules (stolen from gandalf who stole them from haylen who....)
1.This game is a night start.
2. Bold your votes, in the general format
VOTE: drmyshottyomfgthisnameissolong
Please try to make your votes visible, preferably at the beginning of a line. If I don't see it, I won't count it. If I do see it, but I don't think it's probable that others would have seen it, guess what: I won't count it. However, if you notice I missed something in my vote count, PLEASE feel free to point it out.
3. Days will have a 3 week deadline, if a lynch has not been reached by then, a no lynch will occur. Extensions may be granted in special circumstances. If activity starts to drop, I may shorten the deadline by a day or two to get you guys posting. Lurking is a deadly disease, I don't want it spreading throughout my games.
4. Mafia may not converse during the day unless their role PMs specifically say they can. (which doesnt)
5. Do NOT quote your role PM, any outside communication with the mod, or outside communications with other players(as permitted by your role). If you do, I'll just have to kill you.
6. Cheaters will be modkilled
6a. Don't use anything like encrypted text, invisible text, spoiler tags or anything I deem to be pretty much the same will be treated like the pumpkin eaters they are, unless there's a damn good reason. Not having read the rules isn't a good reason.
6b. If for some reason you can edit posts, don't. Or I'll just have to kill you.
7a. If you do not post for 72 hours, you will get a prod. You have 48 hours to respond to said prod, or I'll be forced to replace you. If you receive three prods through the course of the game, you will be force-replaced.
b. If I send you mod communication, open it. That way if important info is for some reason inside your prod or something, you don't miss it because you saw the subject line and deleted it promptly.
c. If you get a prod and the 48 hour deadline to post is going to expire during the nighttime, you will be required to respond to it via PM. This is so we can find a replacement as soon as possible.
In the Twilight Zone
1. Once a majority has been reached, all votes and unvotes are ignored.
2. A lynchee may continue to talk until a death scene is posted.
3. Mafia can't talk to each other until the lynch scene is posted, unless their role PM allows them to talk to each other during the day.(which doesnt)
In the Dark of Night
1.The night phase will last 72 hours, because gandalf wrote 72.
2. If your role allows, you may speak with the people your Role PM specifies, in the QTs specified. Communicating by PM outside of those QTs is not permitted.
3. Mafia can NOT kill their partners, unless for some reason your role PM specifically says that you CAN. (which doesnt)
4. Impersonating power roles by sending in fake action PMs will NOT be tolerated. My mod-hammer is ready to strike.
Rules of Conduct
1. Insulting behavior is not appreciated. If you're making it personal, you will be warned, and if it happens again, I'll start warming up my frost nova
2. BLUE is MY COLOR. Using it will result in some warnings. If I edit people's posts, I'll use blue to show that I wrote it, not the player.(do not impersonate me)
3. NO Out of thread communication with ANYBODY unless your role specifically allows you to communicate with that person at that time.
4. When I get pissed off at my players, my global cooldown becomes 0
5. This is my game, and if I feel you've violated the rules in spirit/mind, I will strike you down, regardless of any "loopholes" you've found.
6. Modkills are when I kill you for breaking the rules. When you are modkilled, your role will be changed to Neutral Survivor, and the day will end. (if some mafia decides to get his ass modkilled so his 'boss' with powers can survive, guess what, neutral survivor = you lose no matter what)
7. Play to win. However, remember that it's a game. Don't take things personally. If you feel that a player is making things personal, alert me, and I'll make a decision accordingly.
8. If I screw up, feel free to tell me. I won't be angry (cough cough)
9. If you need help understanding anything, or you have a problem, PM me.
10. If you're dead, don't post. Im scared of ghosts
11. I reserve the right to modify these rules whenever I see fit, but I will notify you in thread when I do so.
And don't forget to have fun. It's a game, treat it as such. Just don't ruin it for the other players in the process.
