All was quiet in town tonight. Of course, there were revelers at the local bar being their regular boisterous selves, but that was business as usual here. Nothing would have given away to a keen observer the fact that this town had its troubles with organized crime. Just hours ago, the authorities had arrested someone they suspected of smuggling weapons. For what dastardly deeds those weapons were intended was anyone's guess, but there were concerned citizens who were considering banding together to rid themselves of the mafia scum in their midst. Why should they wait until someone died before they took action?
Days will have a deadline of two weeks, and Nights will last 48 hours. Deadline extensions will be granted only in extreme circumstances.
Prods will be issued to players if they have not posted within a 48-hour period. Players who have been prodded have 48 hours to respond in the game thread before a replacement is sought. Saturday and Sunday will be considered a 24-hour period for purposes of activity. Prods will be sent even during declared periods of V/LA; if you expect to be gone for an extended period of time, please contact me and we will work it out.
Lynches occur through simple majority (50% of living players + 1, rounded down). If no majority is reached at deadline, the player with the most votes will be lynched. In the event of a tie, the player who reached his/her current amount of votes first will be lynched. Once majority is reached, no further votes or unvotes will count. Votes for No Lynch will not be counted.
All players, including the lynched player, are allowed to talk in twilight phase until the thread is locked, at which point Day ends. Dead players may not post until the game has been officially declared over; no "Bah!" posts.
Actions not received by deadline will be counted as "No Action." Actions may be submitted ahead of time and can be changed as many times as desired; at deadline, the last valid action that was submitted will be used. Actions may be submitted via PM or private topic.
Votes placed by accounts not present in the game will not be counted. Vote tricks will not be tolerated, and any judgment passed over the validity of any ambiguous votes is final.
Flavor is for entertainment purposes only and has no significance in the game.
Any situations not covered above will be handled on an individual basis. I reserve the right to add, modify, or remove rules as necessary.

Reason:Nights were incorrectly listed as "24 hours where applicable."
No matter how high the stakes, sooner or later you're just gonna have to go with your gut.
And maybe, just maybe, that'll take you right where you were supposed to be.
A door suddenly opens. And ZZZX walks in looking at the whole group with interesting looks
"Greatings my brothers (and sisters). I am ZZZX, Some know me as a lurker, Some see me as a spammer. Some see me as a good player and others as a crappy player of hell. But all I know is. I like to call myself a gambiteer. For the whole life is a gambit. And fate... is just as undecided...
For my show today I am looking at the playerlist... and I will present my thoughts
Cogito:
First post indicates he knows me from the age of the spam. When I had all that free time. Interestingly enough. This will be a fun encounter
Malakitten:
A rare guest. Its been a while wasnt it. Last memorable game I have in mind was the marvel one. Anyway this will be interesting.
RedCoyote:
A contender for the record of lynching me at day 1. Might be dangerous as scum
Davsto:
A face a ZZZX haven't seen
chambah:
chambah
catboi:
Same as Davsto
Bulbazoor:
Cool guy. Hope you are town here~!
grapes:
We played before but I can hardly remeber. Anyway!
You may ask why all of this was done. Perhaps there is no reason.
Perhaps there is.
But what we know is that there is no room for doubt.
A gambiteer doesnt play it safe. He doesnt wait for a chance.
Yep nope. A QL on page 1 is a no go for me. It's pretty silly for anyone to think it might be a good move.
VOTE: grapes
Probably one of my better bets that he's scum from this.
Not sure how I feel about Bulba's entrance, but whatever.
Don't really like CES, but going to sit on that because this is a player I don't have much experience in so I might have chamber sort him, but not trust the read until I can sort chamber out myself.
No matter how high the stakes, sooner or later you're just gonna have to go with your gut.
And maybe, just maybe, that'll take you right where you were supposed to be.

I'm not really expecting you to do anything like a list or whatnot, but I'm expecting you to actually, IDK engage players?
I mean both CES and ZZZX had posts of note, but instead you expressed that you wouldn't hammer and voted me.
