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've been seeing this happen in a lot of games recently. Don't do it -- it can ruin not only this game for others, but also other games. 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.
This particular shade of brown (#804040) is my color. Please do not use it.
Kalimar is my backup mod.
If I go AWOL (I won't) or specifically mention that I am temporarily turning the game over to him, please contact him for game related issues. Otherwise you can simply contact me.
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: borkjerfkin
Vote: borkjerfkin
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.
Players' alignments will be revealed on death.
When killed, a player may make one informationless 'bah' post at the beginning of the next day phase and must be silent thereon until the conclusion of the game.
Please submit all night actions either via <b> tags in your quicktopic 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.
Player List is ordered alphabetically by the initial players' names.
Role distribution is guaranteed to be random, determined with the aid of random.org
Deadlines
Days will be exactly two weeks long. Extensions may be granted at my discretion for what I feel are extenuating circumstances.
Nights will be exactly two days (48 hours) 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 will result in replacement. Asking for replacement will result in replacement.
-- I will not attempt to trick you for my own amusement.
This game will be openly Multiball*.
Multiball is defined as having: At least
n
anti-town factions,
m
of which contain more than one member. n >= m > 1.
Flavor knowledge is NOT required to enjoy this game, but may(?) increase your enjoyment of it. This will include (very brief) story elements that may spoil the plot of the game.
Flavor may exist depending on the amount of free time I end up having
Flips will will be of the form <Character, aligned with (Alignment) [(Mafia Role Name)]>
Players in this game may perform, at most, one active and one factional ability simultaneously at night, regardless of number of living team members, if applicable.
Please confirm by replying to this PM with your alignment, and that you understand your role.

Hey guys.
Mafia, being a competitive game, naturally creates conflict. That conflict sometimes boils over into anger and aggression on the part of the players, especially in a game this large with multiple hydras.
That said, I would like to specifically reiterate that
it is not acceptable to resort to personal attacks as an outlet for that anger (or for any other reason).
Please remember that there is another person behind the username. If you think something you're going to post might be treading that line, ask me or simply reword your post.
I really hope this is the only time I have to mention this.
