Each team will need a:
1. Team Name (you may change this after signing up), it may appear on the winning team's prize banner.
2. Team Captain (normally the person signing up, but it doesn't have to be)
3. The other four player's names. These MUST be spelled correctly and in full or your sign up will be void.

1. No hydras
2. No secret alts. You may play on an alt account, but your "main" identity will be listed on the main thread.
3. Each player must have at least one completed game on the site and be in good standing (i.e. no banned players).

1. Each team will be provided a Private Topic (PT).
2. Each team will also be provided a Discord Channel (DC), upon request.
3. Players may copy and paste whatever they want into their PT/DC. They may not copy and paste text OUT of their PT/DC into game threads.
4. Players may continue to communicate with their team after in-game death.
5. There are no restrictions for what players can post in their PT/DC's outside of not breaking site rules.
6. We'd prefer if teams used the provided means of communication. If your team really wants/needs to user another, contact me (Ellibereth) and we'll figure it out.
7. There will be a universal dead PT. A team will only get the option to join after all of their players have won or are dead.



1. There are no restrictions for what players can post in their PT/DC's outside of not breaking site rules. The rules for this section refer to what players can talk about in their ongoing games and ongoing game PT's.
2. Players are only allowed to talk about mod-confirmed things from other ongoing Team Mafia games.
3. Any public speculation about other ongoing games is prohibited.
4. Any attempt to publically signal players from other ongoing games is prohibited.
5. Do not try to loophole these rules. If anyone has questions at any point about what is allowed or not allowed please message me (Ellibereth).
6. Examples of things NOT allowed: Calling a player in another game scummy. Saying a wagon in another game was bad. Talking about a claim in another game. Mentioning that players in another game should have lynched someone else.
7. Example of things that ARE allowed: Stating who is on what team. Stating what Day or Night another game is in. Stating how many players are left alive on a team. Stating how many town or scum are alive in another game. Stating whether a dead player in another game has flipped town or scum.
8. You MAY talk about the preferences and abilities of any player and speculate which game and alignment they would prefer. You may speculate about the relative strengths of teams and how they would distribute role pms. You may NOT tie this speculation or otherwise refer to ANY action a player not in your game has taken in their ongoing game. A good rule of thumb is any speculation one could have made just by seeing team compositions before the event is allowed.
9. Example of things that ARE allowed: "Ellibereth sucks at scum, he probably chose a town pm" or "Zoraster is by far the best scum player on that team. If they got a scum role pm he probably took it."
10. Example of things NOT allowed: "Ellibereth is confirmed scum by team composition", when said by someone not in Ellibereth's game. "Ellibereth's probably going to flip scum in that other game so Zoraster is probably town here".
11. To repeat: If you have any doubt about whether something is against the rules or not, pm your mod and me, and ask.



1. You may at no time say, indicate, insinuate, etc. that your Team Mafia teammates are or might be anything other than town. This includes in any hypothetical situation.
2. Exception: You may talk about your teammates being scum if they have flipped scum in another game (i.e. are dead).
3. If a player is NOT on your team and is still alive in another game, you must follow the rules in the Talking About Other Games thread.



1. It is your job to replace team members who are not active. If you require assistance from the moderator or any event organizer, there will be a tiebreak penalty.
2. To replace a team member, you must PM Ellibereth AND the moderator of your subgame.
3. You may replace with anyone who is not currently on a Team Mafia team, not part of the Team Mafia Organizer team (Moderators, Balance-checkers, players in tiebreak game). However, only 5 people may be involved in the PT at any time. A replaced team member may not participate in any way unless he is replaced back in.
4. A dead player may still be replaced so long as the team follows 3.
5. The mod will force replace any player who has not posted within 3 days (Prodded after 2, no response for 1 more) of his last post (not including Night). This will come at a penalty to the team.
6. Please try to avoid replacements if possible.
