Setup:
Here are some quick look observations about the implications of the mechanics in this setup. These observations were made before roles were assigned.
Early claiming from the town power role is detrimental as all of them are vulnerable to a factional nightkill.
Early crumbing as a town power role and, therefore, as a mafia goon, is potentially powerful.
Any of the three roles can be fakeclaimed just as easily as the others due to the semiopen nature of the setup. It is better to counterclaim a roleclaim using the role that would best match your play throughout the game, rather than the one that correctly matches the subsetup. None of the claims are testable. The exception to this is that Asgore becomes almost impossible to claim once a night passes with no nightkill.
Undyning yourself always protects a town-aligned player, but undyning someone else has potential investigative effects.
The LOVE mechanic can be leashed, but leashing is only beneficial to the extent you get information about a player who had different dayplay. Ruining all the game's dayplay by arguing about a LOVE mechanic leash could not prove worth it's cost. Where there is strong groupthink about where to leash it, this cost is reduced.
And last, but not least, note that Day4 of the pacifist route might be LyLo, and the mafia already know whether it's LyLo.

You're not required to vote the mod to change your vote, even if your vote is transitioning across the two types of votes. You're only required to vote the mod to put yourself in a state where you are not voting anything at all.

The monsters decided that chennisden seemed kind and goodhearted. When his name turned yellow, they decided to
[SPARE]
him. But with all the uncertainty and danger still in the air, they decided he would be safer elsewhere, so they told him to scamper into the rooms beneath Alphys's lab where he will be safe.
Please submit any night actions you may have by PM or PT.

RULE CHANGE
The original rules for the game, taken literally, would replace every member of the spared PT repeatedly.
When creating the spared PT, I realized this, and that it is reflective of overlooking it in rules design entirely, rather than being a quaint anomaly.
A new rule regarding the activity requirements of spared players has been added to the opening post. While living players' the 48 hour prod timer balances game progression and slot integrity, the players in the spared PT have no direct impact on game progression by virtue of this setup's design, so the values skew more heavily towards slot integrity.
A question I thought of, to pre-empt: The pacifist 5th special spare, should it occur, will be treated as its own special day with a full deadline (N+2 days).
Less hullabaloo for this since it is intuitive and not really as much a rules change, more like a value I left undefined.
I have a V/LA Thursday through Sunday, so you'll be getting phone modding.

Toriel and Asgore are informed immediately when their power is affected by successfully preventing a kill. Undyne won't ever receive any mod communication of the kind.
Mafia can never target a spared player with the factional nightkill.

by successfully preventing a kill. Undyne won't ever receive any mod communication of the kind.
On hindsight I realize that this might have been too pithy and I should make sure this is clear, since I was asked a "yes" or "no" question that was the "wrong question" and could lead me to misleading players.
I should have included a "no", to "are PRS notified when they heal someone" and please note what I've underlined above.
Toriel and Asgore receive necessary and sufficient information to submit their night actions, and to play the preceding day phase anticipating the use of their night action. This information triggers off of "healing" someone for both roles, but what triggers the mod PM is the real change in anticipated night actions, not the healing itself.
Examples where Toriel or Asgore can successfully heal and not affect their power:
-Toriel successfully heals Night 3, but she will lose her protect at the Core anyway
-Asgore successfully protects a player in his doctor form. He does not receive a PM downgrading him from a doctor to a doctor, he is told nothing because he should anticipate the same type of night action again.

Voting rule 8 and the setup description are somewhat disparate but can be harmonized: Voting rule 8 only triggers if the setup description's proscription of plurality voting creates a tie that needs to be broken. The mafia will not be restricted to choosing amongst the tied selections, though, because that's not how voting rule 8 was written.
The deadline is not imminent but such clarifications are ideally made as early as can be.

The monsters decided that Elements seemed to be good-hearted and decided to spare him. But with so much tension from all the monsters being killed, it seemed he should go somewhere safe. The Vulcan's promise to heal someone if they were injured but not killed was totally gone, even if it was dubious in the first place.
They encouraged Elements to amble into the rooms beneath Alphys's laboratory, where he should be safe.

Sans and Papyrus are both made entirely of bones.
Some font technologies are based on storing data about each point to point "penstroke" a certain character is composed of, then rendering that font to the screen based on which pixels touch that "line", which are in practice potentially affected by how the requested font size and the resolution of the display interact. Thus the font itself is nothing but a collection of point to point line segments and joints, just like a skeleton of bones.
Sans and Papyrus cannot appear in this setup but you are somehow filled with determination.

You decided that Adorable seemed to have a good heart. But people have been hurting eachother. You urge her to curl up and rollout underneath Alphys's lab, where she will be safe.
By now, shadows are dripping from the barrier overhead. Some of their maleficent fingers grasp forth towards your group with beckoning fingers, ignoring the rest of the Underground - suggesting someone, different, is in your group.
Meanwhile, a cylinder of shadow seems to be descending on Alphys's lab, too, fumbling with the windows and probing after something it thinks is there. Something about the lab make the dark arm recoil occasionally, while the tendril coming towards the exposed group outside seems rather unstoppable.
The sky is grey and it seems as though it is neither day nor night.

As the darkness descends on the group, the group decides to hurl Something_Smart towards Alphys's lab. It looks safer there.
They look up, and cross their hearts, as the dark apparition envelops them all. Is this... death? Or something else? They are so swallowed, nothing can be seen but the eerie black.
It's such a spectacle, in fact, that everyone in Alphys' lab can't help but watch, even from the less safe second floor window. All five of them look out the window, leaning forward to see the spectacle as closely as they can. So far forward... it would only take a nudge...

As you are all looking the window, someone - you're not sure who - is heard slapping Chemist1422 from behind.
Chemist1422 tumbles forwards out the window, landing on the ground with a broken neck. Even powerful monsters can be killed when caught unprepared.
Chemist1422's soul lingers for just a moment after death, and you realize that all along it is the soul of
Toriel
.
The shadows that finished consuming the rest of the group are coming towards the lab. You all feel more and more sure that the only way to get them to stop is to guess what they want and give it to them.
It's not lethal, they are just a fog, it's not clear they kill what they cover. But who among you all -would- be lethal? That is probably the best person to kick out.
Deadline will be seven days.
Please use Vote tags. Vote and Hurt tags will both be accepted but I'd prefer vote tags. Heal tags will be ignored.

This only works if your friend is an employee, but is not made of fire.

Spoiler: Game outcome
The group pushed Adorable out of the lab, locking the door behind her. She would be on her own to journey and explore. They felt pretty sure the fog was not seeking something it wished to destroy, so she should be fine.
They walked back into the first floor of the lab. They felt more and more sure that Something_Smart was a pretty good person. Finally, they realized why: Something_Smart was Alphys, a true friend.
"I'm certain Adorable was the problem, but we need to reclaim our friends in the fog. I have a machine that will help us." Something_Smart said, smiling.
"Our souls can power it and send out a signal that dissuades the barrier."
Something_Smart pulled out a funny machine. It seemed to have three levers, covered in electrodes, jutting out from a golden cylinder. Atop it all was a radio dish.
"It takes three people to power."
Alphys pulled one lever, holding it down. A pale white, mystical flow traveled along her body and into the machine. She kept it held down.
"You guys now."
Elements nodded, grabbing a lever. The stream flowed from his body to the machine as well, and the dish began a half hum that signified it was almost at full strength.
"You too", Something_Smart nodded at chennisden, after an adjustment of glasses. With a happy smile, chennisden reached for the lever.
At which point Elements let go of his lever.
"Psyche, you disgusting creatures!
We heard the monsters here were responsible for human deaths. So we ratcheted up the barrier to make its charge unstable, then came in so it'd start reaching for us. It's taken quite a while, but here it comes."
The nasty fog broke through a window. After hearing the harshness of Elements' words, they realized they were looking at a human - and had been, all this time.
"It's harmless to me, and it didn't harm volxen either. As for you - well becoming part of the barrier that keeps the underground empty forever doesn't leave you altogether purposeless, does it? But it definitely helped that you brought me to the geographic center of the underground. It helped the slaughter be so total and complete."
The monsters panic, and look for places to run, but the fog is at every window. Elements doesn't chase them; he throws his head back, laughing and laughing and laughing. "And this is my first time taking on a quest for the village! volxen has lots of EXP and LOVE, but he let me perform every kill!"
Elements' laughter grows more and more maniacal yet inaudible, as their existence is absorbed into the monolithic construct and they gradually cease attunement of any of their senses, except for a new one: sensing the proximity of the nearest souls.
Adorable
was made to learn that It's Too Dangerous To Go Alone!
Something_Smart
has been endgamed!
chennisden

Thank you everyone for playing in my first moderated game! I was very happy with the activity level, replacement percentage, and general win effort.
I thought this setup would be awesome. For the most part it seemed awesome.
Fun fact, the special Spare PT deadline was never used, but someone came within four hours of getting the no penalty prod! Everyone voluntarily used the Spare PT to gamesolve which I mostly expected.

volxen disagreed with that assessment and honestly it may have directly impacted his win% since an Oversoul push looked very viable D2

Two posts I made from the dead PT, I would like to highlight specifically
The reason for the anomaly with Toriel's ability, which had to do with impartiality and conscientious modding: viewtopic.php?p=11182343#p11182343
And a new fork of the setup I'm interested in which I will be posting in Open Setup discussion soon (perhaps to be ripped apart we'll see): viewtopic.php?p=11196796#p11196796
I apologize to the scumteam for having to play around extra Toriel shots. The interpretation was based on balancing in favor of the scum faction in general, but in practice for the particular run of the setup harmed them.

She spares an extra player when the core is reached. I kind of don't get how it's helpful really. Maybe S_S can explain how it is.

Yeah it's kinda a convoluted mess at this point but if the core is reached in Pacifist she gets to spare another player if she isn't killed that night.
It's helpful because it gives town another mislynch in Core.
Let's move any discussion on that to the Open Setup thread (which all players are welcome to come to).
