TEAM MAFIA 2018 GAMEPLAY RULESET
ALL SITE RULES, INCLUDING THOSE PROHIBITING TALKING ABOUT NON TEAM MAFIA GAMES, STILL APPLY.
I reserve the right to append these rules should it become necessary. If this happens, all players will be notified
[/b]
If you have any doubt about whether something is against the rules or not, PM me or Ellibereth, and ask.
Team Communication
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 in their provided PT/DC.
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, please contact Ellibereth. The organizing team will need to be able to access any means of communication in an emergency.
7. Team PT/DC's will only be made public after the game if all players on the team consent to their release.
8. All Game PT's including all scum PT's will automatically be released after Team Mafia.
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.
Talking About Other Games
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, pass messages to players from other games, or otherwise communicate through the use of cryptography 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 Ellibereth.
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.
11. To repeat: If you have any doubt about whether something is against the rules or not, pm me or Ellibereth, and ask.
Your Teammates are Always Innocent Until Proven Guilty
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.
Replacements
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, has not previously been on a different Team Mafia team, is and has not been part of the Team Mafia Organizing team (Moderators, Balance-checkers, players in tiebreak game), and is eligible to play in mafia games. 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 until the players of your team are all dead or have all won their games.
5. The mod will force replace any player who has not posted within 3 days (Prodded after 2 days, no response for 1 more) of his last post (not including Night). This will come at a penalty to the team.
6. If a player must be replaced due to mod errors or another outside influence (such as gaining information that they should not be able to have), the mods may assist in finding a replacement without assessing a penalty.
7.
Teams may switch two players who are alive in games ONCE for the duration of Team Mafia 2018. It must be done in D1 or D2.
8. Players cannot replace into teams more than twice. Being on the team at the start counts as a "replacement" in this context. (If Zoraster is replaced by Ellibereth, and then Ellibereth is replaced by Zoraster, and Zoraster is again replaced by Ellibereth, Zoraster may not replace back in again).

Please don't read into any cutscene/votecount flavor! It's all in good fun, and also half of it is older than the setup/role assignments/you.
Rising up, back on the street
Fought the scum, took our chances
Went the distance to unmask their deceit
Just a town and its will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
Your reads get shaken and blurry
Don't lose your grip on your reads as they clash
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the eye of the tiger, it's a kill every night
Adding up 'til there's nary a survivor
And we need constant vigilance to fend for the site
Because anyone secretly might
Be a tiger
Page by page, taking the heat
Acting tough, talking bluntly
The pressure's on to find something concrete
As the town doubles down to survive
It's the eye of the tiger, it's a kill every night
Adding up 'til there's nary a survivor
And we need constant vigilance to fend for the site
Because anyone secretly might
Be a tiger
Rising up, straight to the top
Read the quotes, caught your quarry
With persistence now you won't need a cop
Just a town and its will to survive
It's the eye of the tiger, it's a kill every night
Adding up 'til there's nary a survivor
And we need constant vigilance to fend for the site
Because anyone secretly might
Be a tiger
He might be a tiger
She might be a tiger
You might be a tiger

Eye of the Tiger,
Survivor

(Talk me down) Every now and then I get a little bit fearful
Of your hold upon the town
(Talk me down) Every now and then I get a little bit tired
Of listening to how you've been cleared
(Talk me down) Every now and then I get a little bit nervous
Over something that I can't quantify
(Talk me down) Every now and then I get a little bit paranoid
And wonder how you're even alive

Tell me
Have you figured out the scum
Did you make it through this giant game
To get the right foundations
And reread 'em in isolation
Tell me

Don't you think it's kind of bizarre
That no one's listening while you're
Talking to yourself out there

I got this feeling on the second day that I was wrong
I pushed your wagon to a lynch, I watched, I let you squirm
I knew full well that you'd flip town after that questionnaire

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying six feet underground
Our tactics never changed
Not one scum revealed
I hate this game and I can see
We'll never save this town
You don't have to wait
I'll be flipping town

It's been one week since you voted me
Cast your weak case aside and claimed a guilty
Five days, still at minus three
But it's clear this town has no concept of mercy
Three days since I claimed as goon
But no, all discussion's town, can't end it too soon
Yesterday, hammered finally
But it'll still be two days 'til I get a death scene

I just did brilliantly well
I know, right now you can't tell
But play a while, baby, then you'll see
I called it perfectly

I was a scarier threat
I know, right now your mind's set
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And my mortality

In post 9, Ellibereth wrote:Transcend has broken the rule against copy and pasting from PT's/Discords.
The consequences are as follows:
1) Team eddie cane was given the options to either replace Transcend, or to swap skirt skirt (the author of the copy and pasted post) and Transcend.
2) Team eddie cane has chosen to swap the two players.
3) This counts as Team eddie cane's player swap.
4) For the purposes of tiebreaks this swap counts as an organizer-assisted replacement.
Any future instances of similar rule-breaking will be dealt with harshly. Please read all the rules and pm me if you have questions about them or this judgement in particular.

Strange kills for a so-called vig
You are a serial killer
Could lynch you, but let's think big
You are a serial killer
You could keep your life
If you follow the plan
You will shoot tonight
As the townies demand
Give us no cause to doubt
You are a useful man

That kind of game just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Throw in a cult recruiter
