1) All sitewide rules apply.
2) You may not discuss this game anywhere outside the game thread unless specifically allowed by your role PM. In such case, a PT will be provided and you may not discuss your game outside the game thread and/or the PT.
3) Be civil and treat other players with respect-attack the case, not the person. Mafia is a heated game, but insults, personal attacks, and bullying are not allowed. I determine what constitutes a violation. It's not up for debate.
4)
Blue is my color for this game
. Do not use it.
5) Quoting or pretending to quote your role PM, PTs, or private communications with the mod is strictly forbidden. Loose paraphrasing is permitted. If you're not sure, ask me via PM BEFORE you post it int he game.
6) Violation of the rules will result in action as I see fit up to and including modkill.
7) If you notice errors on my part (such as in VCs) please let me know in thread by using
@Mod
8) For other issues, please PM me.
9) If you have outside information that influences your knowledge of the game, are aware of someone else having outside information, or have any reason to believe that the game has been compromised, it is your responsibility to inform me via PM immediately.
Voting/Lynching
1) For your vote or unvote to be counted, you must use vote tags or bold tags
and put the vote at the beginning of a line
, like this: VOTE: picky mod
Vote: picky mod
This is because I manually do VCs and it's easier for me to just scan along the left.
2) Votes for misspellings or acronyms of players' names (such as VOTE: Playrname or VOTE: PN) are valid as long as the player being voted for is clear. You are not required to unvote before changing your vote. However, votes that are behind spoiler tags, in quote tags, in small or invisible text, or otherwise concealed are invalid.
3) You may vote for a No Lynch.
4) A lynch will occur when 50%+1 (rounded down) of the votes are cast for the same player; a No Lynch will occur when 50% of the votes are cast for that option. When this has happened, the game enters twilight and any subsequent votes and unvotes will not be counted.
5) You may continue talking after a lynch or deadline has elapsed until the mod posts to end the day. After that, you may not post even if the mod forgets to lock the thread.
6) If day phase ends without a lynch or no lynch being reached,
the person with the most votes is lynched
. In a tie, the person who first reached that number of votes is lynched.
7) This game uses a special mechanic, stranding, instead of lynching. When I say lynch or no lynch, that really means strand or no strand. See the setup-specific rules below for more information.
Activity and Day/Night Phases
1) Day phases will be 14 calendar days long.
2) Night phases will be approximately 48 hours long. They may be longer or shorter in order to fit my schedule.
3) If a replacement is needed during a night phase, I will extend the night deadline until some time after a replacement is found, regardless of whether that slot has a night action.
4) In order for night actions to be accepted, they must be PM'd to me or posted in bold in PTs before the deadline is up. If a player does not select one, he or she will default to "no action." The last action submitted before the posted deadline will have effect. Any one mafia may submit the actions for all the mafia. Masons must submit actions individually.
5) Players may be prodded after forty-eight hours without posting. Players may request prods on other players. All prods will be announced in thread. A post must have content to reset the prod timer - "prodge" type posts don't count. The prod timer carries over from one day to the next, i.e. night does not reset the prod timer.
6) Players who do not respond to a prod within twenty-four hours or need to be prodded too many times will be replaced at the discretion of the mod.
7) If you will be unable to post for over forty-eight hours, inform the mod by PM or in the thread of when you'll be V/LA. Assuming the V/LA period is of reasonable length, you will be exempt from prods during that time. All V/LA notifications will be made public by the mod.
8) Once you're dead, you may no longer post in thread. No 'bah' posts.
Setup-specific Rules
The full setup follows. Feel free to ask any questions via PM or in the game thread.
Spoiler: Full setup
The setup is open and includes the following:
8 citizens:
2 masons:
1 Mafia Strongman
1 Mafia Goon/Backup Strongman 1
1 Mafia Goon/Backup Strongman 2
Mafia and masons can talk privately at all times, including pregame.
Voting is as usual with phase ending when time runs out or a majority vote is reached. If no majority is reached, the player with the highest number of votes is stranded. In case of a tie, the player who was first to that vote count is stranded. The player voted is not lynched, he is Stranded:
If all players are dead at the end of the night, the mafia wins.
Enjoy the game!

VOTE: epod~lady also want to be sexist before the art of sexism is lost to this world forever. People will write in history books, quoting this post as past examples of sexism, and I will live on in infamy

Not the approach I'll be taking this game magna. I learned my lesson. And I've read it. Glad you said something
I was about to say something really stupid like use today to find the most town person and the most scum person. Lynch the scum. Then everyone shoot below them except the person above the town person.
In post 23, Vedith wrote:This only works if scum names aren't next to each other.
It also doesn't work because regardless of where scum are in the list they can plan with the combination of Strongman kill and both non-Strongman going Barracade to have a 2-2 Mafia to Town instant win ratio after Night 1.
"I am a leaf on the wind ... watch how I soar!"
Pretty much Geriatric game restricted at this point ... unless there are players I REALLY want to play with.
