Welcome to Mini Theme #1565: Playing Card Mafia
(Reviewers/Discussors/Somethings: serra, Beli)
In a really odd world where the flick of a switch can utterly change the face with which you greet the day (no, it isn't bastard, yes, I know what it sounds like, I'll explain later if you'll calm down for five seconds), one Mod might just have the ability to steal bits and pieces of other modified setups and try something that is hopefully less derivative than it seems it will be. Will the grade schools require it? What the heck is up with that carpet pattern? Who even gives a shit about all these questions all the time anyway?

Rules:
General (I):
1. All sitewide rules/guidelines apply.
2. I'm using this colour, try not to use it or I'll assume you're impersonating me.
3. Communication about this game is not allowed outside of this thread, excepting in Mod-approved locations.
4. Don't quote things about this game that come from outside of the thread. You may paraphrase. Use good judgement.
5. Breadcrumbing and other forms of in-thread communication are fine. Don't do anything weird and encrypted though.
Activity:
6. Prods will be issued after 72 hours, or 48 on request (requested prods for a time period less than 72 hours will not be counted as "official" prods). If you don't post for 24 hours after an official prod or 48 after an unofficial, you will be replaced.
7. Players who garner three "official" prods on a given Day will be replaced.
8. Players on V/LA will not be prodded until 48 hours after their V/LA ends.
9. Days will be of length (# of players +1), but will be no less than 7 days. Nights will be two days in duration. The scum may elect to shorten the night by 24 hours. Daystart PMs will be provided.
Votes, Lynches, and other Actions:
10. Votes must be bolded/votetagged.
11. Lynches require what is known as simple majority (50% + 1). No lynch will occur if this is not reached by deadline. You may also vote for no lynch.
12. Once a lynch has been reached, all living players and the lynched player may continue talking until the flip is posted.
13. If actions are not submitted by deadline they are forfeit.
General (II):
14. Flavour is not relevant but hopefully mildly entertaining.
15. Rules will be modified if necessary. Notification of modification will be provided.
Mechanic-specific stuff:
There are a certain number of people, who get the role name "switch" because I am too lazy/unoriginal to come up with anything else, that can change the gamestate. Each time one of them submits an action, the gamestate changes. These toggles are therefore cumulative, and will take effect at the end of each Night phase. The chosen colour (as, in this case, we will toggle between red suits and black) will be announced at the open of the following Day.
This will probably be better-explained by actually playing it.
I am using the NAR. Switches therefore will resolve as "miscellaneous."
Any flips which use a forward slash will always be in the format Black/Red.
Spoiler: Sample Vanilla PM
For Pregame reference: The switch has begun defaulted to black.
btw I'm informing mollie of this game pronto
