My game is up next! The flavour of the game will be based around a group of teenagers at a cabin in the summer (so 80s cliché!). Of course, it will have no weighting on the game itself! Be prepared for some corny deaths and great 80’s horror movie references!
The set-up is
closed
!
Day Phases will have a deadline of
2 Weeks
, Night Phases having a
48 Hour
deadline. Prod length will be
48 Hours
.
A maximum of 2 hydras will be allowed. 2 heads max, please.
If you'd like to sign up, but have issues with other players who have signed up, or players who sign up after you, please PM me.
Rules:
Spoiler:
Rules
(stole from pieguyn who adapted them from borkjerfkin)
I reserve the right to change any of the following rules at any time. I will also inform the players in thread and via PM in the unlikely scenario in which this is required.
This list is not necessarily all-inclusive. If you're unsure whether or not something is allowed, please PM me about it.
Disregarding the rules may result in consequences up to and including modkill and/or force-replacement.
If you need to talk to me in thread,
please use bold.
Additionally, feel free to PM me with any questions you might have.
DO NOT TALK ABOUT OTHER ONGOING GAMES IN THIS GAME.
I won't be lenient about this rule in particular.
Please do not use hidden or encrypted text.
Play to win.
Please treat your fellow players with respect. At the same time, please try not to take comments personally whenever possible.
Please allow for your fellow players to go V/LA.
Please keep me in the loop about your own V/LA status.
My colour is magenta. Please don’t use this colour.
Have Fun!
Gameplay
The following vote formats are the de-facto standard on the site (aka votes should be enclosed with vote tags or bold tags. I don't care about caps/spelling/etc.)
VOTE: BipolarChemist
Vote: BipolarChemist
Unvotes are
not
required.
If it appears to be a vote for a player, I will treat it as a vote for a player. Please don't attempt to fool me or other players with regard to fake votes. Do not put votes in spoiler tags.
A lynch is achieved when half plus one of the current number of living players are voting for the same player. If this does not occur by deadline, a No Lynch will occur -- there is no plurality lynch in this game.
Twilight is the time between the 'hammer' vote being cast and the beginning of the night phase. All living players, including the most recent lynchee, may talk during this time.
Please submit all night actions either via [ b ] tags in the designated Private Topic if you have one, or by PM if you do not.
If you have a night action and do not submit one, you will not take an action. I will not resolve your action on a random person. There are no compulsive actions in this game.
Role distribution is guaranteed to be random, determined with the aid of random.org
Deadlines
Days will be exactly 2 Weeks long.
Nights will be exactly two days long.
Players will be prodded after 48 hours of inactivity during the day, excepting V/LA circumstances.
Failure to pick up a prod in 24 hours, or receiving 3 prods over the course of the game, will result in replacement. Asking for replacement will result in replacement.

When there are two games taking sign-ups at the same time, please specify for which game you are signing up (e.g., "/in mith's game" or "/in for the Large game") or specify that you'd like to be placed in the game that has been in sign-ups longer. In those occasions, non-specific sign-ups such as "/in" or "/in for next" will be ignored.
Couldn't in for next just be assumed to be for mini normal games?
Or people could be assumed to read the rules for the queue they are posting in.
It just seems easier than nagging people to read the rules, and I'm sure it's not going to be the last time it happens.
Things I've learned.
1. It's just a game, have fun.
2. Don't waste time on people who think you are scum. Ignore them and keep scum hunting.
3. Don't take everything so personal.
4. Tunneling sucks (unfortunately I can't seem to stop)
That's ridiculous, honestly Tierce is doing a favor to everyone who doesn't read the OP and makes a vague /in post just by quoting the rule instead of ignoring the post

/in for next mini normal that needs a player. I hate large games. no large games. just a mini normal. I don't care whose mod or whatever. I just want to play in a mini normal. Please, can I be placed in the next mini normal?

I don't know, this isn't very clear!
(You're in. Thanks for fixing the sign-up.)
As for the peanut gallery, if you have suggestions or complaints about the queue's workings, either PM me or make a thread in Site Ideas. This is not the place to discuss my queue policies.
How many people long for that "past, simpler, and better world," I wonder,
without ever recognizing the truth that perhaps it was they who were simpler and better,
and not the world about them?
