Welcome to the Annual Independent Games Festival! No doubt all of you are excited to be here. We've got some great indie games, but not all of them can win. Unfortunately, it seems some unscrupulous indie games are trying to off the competition -- well, it seems we'll just have to take care of them the old fashioned way: without financial support from major publishers!

    (replacing
    Grimgroove

The Rules


1. Rules may be added, removed, or changed at my discretion.

2. If you do not post after 48 hours you will be prodded. You then have 24 hours to pick up the prod. If you do not pick it up after that time I will begin looking for a replacement. Weekends and holidays are counted as normal days.
Any player who is prodded 3 times is subject to replacement on the next prod.
Prod-dodges buy you 24 hours only. If you are going to be gone for 48 or more hours, say so in the thread, or PM me. This will put your inactivity clock on hold.

3. a) The deadline for Day 1 will be 15 days, and all subsequent Days will have deadlines of 10 days.
If a Day ends early, the remaining amount of time (rounded to days, not hours) will be added to the deadline of the next Day, up to a maximum of 5 days extra.
I reserve the right to extend Day length, typically for the purpose of finding a desperately needed replacement.

b) Night rounds will last for 72 hours. During this time the thread will be locked, and all roles with night actions should send me a message telling me what they're going to do. Nights may be extended, just like Days.

4. Short version: Vote in the form
Vote: example
. As long as a vote isn't ambiguous, I'll count it. If it is ambiguous it won't ever count, even if clarified. You'll have to redo the vote. Also, unvoting is not necessary.

Long version: Voting must be made in the format
Vote: example
. The colon is optional, as is the space between the colon and the player's name. Capital letters are also optional. Unvoting is not necessary but appreciated. Votes using abbreviations for player names, misspellings of player names, and even misspellings of abbreviations of player names will all be accepted as long as they meet the above conditions. Abbreviations of misspellings of player names will be treated as mere abbreviations. In the event that a vote is ambiguous however, it will not be counted, not even retroactively. You can vote to not lynch anyone, and the rules for that are the same as regular voting. Trick votes aren't allowed.

5. No invisible or small text (defined as "text I have to copy and paste or quote to read").

6. To lynch in the Day rounds you need a simple majority of votes, or 50% rounded down +1. Lynch majority will not be reduced at deadline. If a lynch majority is not reached at deadline, No Lynch will occur.

7. Discussing this game anywhere outside of the game thread itself is forbidden, unless you are specifically told otherwise in your role PM. Discussing other ongoing games in this thread is also forbidden.

8. If you die you get one contentless "bah" post.
Note that if you reach the required majority needed for a lynch then you are immediately dead
(i.e., claiming that your death scene hadn't yet been posted so you were allowed to keep posting content won't work). During Twilight (after lynch majority is reached/after deadline hits, before round ending scene) anyone who is alive may post content (but the lynchee doesn't count as alive).

9. Don't quote PMs you get from me or any quicktopics you may have access to. Paraphrasing is your friend.

10. Don't intentionally lie about out of game circumstances to gain an advantage in the game.

11. Flavor is flavor, no story clues or anything.

12. My color for this game will be
blue
, so don't use it.

13. In the event that you are modkilled you will automatically lose, regardless of who wins.

14. Do not lie to me about things related to the game.

15. Vote counts will hopefully be done close to the top of each page. If a full page goes by without a vote count then one will be edited in at the top of it.

16. If I make a mistake, tell me.

17. If you have a question about the rules or game mechanics, just ask.

18. Be considerate towards your fellow player. Excessive personal attacks will result in a warning, then forced replacement or modkill.

Note: If you're being insulted, say so in thread or PM me. I'm not you, so I have no idea if you don't care or if you're upset or whatever. Therefore, I will tend not to intervene.

19. If you think something you're about to do might break the rules, assume it will and message me asking if it's okay to do.

20. Alts and hydra components should be made known to me, but I won't force you to publicize the information.

Town Win Condition:
You win when all Anti-Town players have been eliminated and at least one member of your faction is still alive.
Mafia Win Condition:
You win when all Pro-Town players and any opposing Anti-Town players have been eliminated (or nothing can prevent this) and at least one member of your faction is still alive.
There may be additional win conditions in play that are not listed here.

My apologies for how long this is taking, but Thanksgiving decided to get in the way a bit. Still, I have about 7 of the 9 roles in close to final states, so I think I can finish today.
