Reviewed by: Ircher and Not Known 15

Every year, the

Silent Star

emerges anew. Do not be deceived by its beauty... it only spells calamity for all unfortunate enough to gaze upon it.

Welcome to the town of Lunacy! I'm

Mayor Top Hat

, but you already knew that because you live here! Now... the reason I'm calling everyone out today is because we have a slight problem in the town. You see, people have been dropping dead like it's the Black Death all over again. And to make matters worse, S҉͠O̸͝͞M̴̸̧͟Ę̴̴͞͞T͡H̶̵̨͟͜I̸̧҉N̢͘G̢͘͜͠ ̡͠T̴̕͏Ȩ̕R̢̨͟͞R̶҉̶͞I̸̡B̶̴̴̛͟L̛͟͟͟È͡҉̵̧ has happened to the sky. Hahahahahahaha, this just won't do! Well, anyway, follow me and I'll show you to our meeting place. We need to put a stop to these deaths and I have a

fantastic

idea in mind.

The Rules

• ONE: FUNDAMENTALS
  • All site-wide rules apply. Read and respect them.
    
  • There is no personal communication outside the forum postings (regarding this game) unless your role specifically allows it.
    
  • Do not quote your Role PM or any private communication (either real or fabricated) with the moderator, co-moderator, backup-moderator, or fellow players. Paraphrasing your Role PM is acceptable.
    
  • Be courteous and respectful to all your fellow players and the moderating team.
    
  • Play to your Win Condition.
• TWO: DAY PHASE
  • Each Day Phase shall have a 10 day deadline.
    
  • Votes must be in the format of VOTE: PlayerName or
    Vote: PlayerName
    , or they shall not be counted. Abbreviating someone's name is acceptable, so long as I can discern who you were voting for without trouble. If I think it should count as a vote, it will.
    
  • Unvoting is not required, but is much appreciated.
    
  • Once you have reached a simple majority (half of all living players plus one) that person's fate is sealed and they shall be lynched. Unvoting cannot change their fate.
    
  • If half the living players approve a No Lynch (
    Vote: No Lynch
    ), then no player shall be lynched and the game shall enter Night Phase. If deadline is reached and no one has received a simple majority of the votes, no one shall be lynched.
    
  • Once a player is lynched the game enters twilight until I arrive and post a death scene. All players may continue to post during Twilight.
    
  • Please post at least once every 36 hours. If you fail to do so, you will be prodded. If you fail to respond to said prod within 36 hours, you will be replaced.
    
  • If you get three or more prods, or fail to respond to a prod by posting in thread within 36 hours (or by PM if at Night), I will begin seeking for a replacement (this means the third prod functions like a notice that you are racing the search for your replacement.)
    
  • A deadline extension may or may not be granted; just ask.
    
  • Votes and Unvotes shall not count in Twilight.
• THREE: NIGHT PHASE
  • The Night Phase shall last two days.
    
  • All groups with Private Topics (PTs) will be able to converse during the Night Phase.
    
  • Any role or faction with night abilities may choose to use them by PM-ing the mod with their choice.
    
  • If no action is received, no action will be taken. All actions received after the deadline has passed will not be valid.
    
  • Night Action submissions will be accepted starting in the Twilight Phase.
• FOUR: CAPITAL OFFENSES
  • Do not quote your Role PM or any private communication (either real or fabricated) with the moderator, co-moderator, or backup-moderator. Paraphrasing your Role PM is acceptable.
    
  • There is to be no personal communication outside the forum postings (regarding this game) unless your role specifically allows it.
    
  • The following is a list of outlawed shenanigans:
    • Using invisible text, codes, cryptography, etc.
      
    • Editing your posts (if you have the power to do so)
      
    • Insulting other players
      
    • Quoting any PTs you may have access to
  • If any of these offences are committed, I have the right to force-replace you from the game, or, with Listmod permission, modkill you.
• FIVE: MISCELLANEOUS
  • This is a game. Have fun, and keep the game fun for other people. This might be the most important rule.
    
  • My mod colour is
    #FFBF00
    ; don't use it.
    
  • Feel free to address me in-thread, but if there is a large egregious mistake please PM Hectic and/or Menalque. Small matters like errors in the votecount can be posted in-thread.
    
  • I have the final say on any issue.
    
  • I have the right to edit this Ruleset at any time.

The eccentric man wielding the Top Hat - which you must admit is quite magnificent - leads you through the streets of Lunacy. They are barren and there is not a person in sight.

Spoiler:

You also pass what can only be described as a mass grave. You make a quick sketch of it.

Spoiler:

Don't mind all this; everyone else has already gathered at our meeting point. I'm sure they'll be so happy to have someone with your skills joining them. Oh, and remember, do NOT look up at the sky and search for I̢̠̫͈̥̮͆̉ͧ̉t̻͕ͨͤͩ͟ under any circumstances.

[Hectic]

Finally, you arrive at your destination. A strange assortment of people are sat down, chatting.

Spoiler:

Nearby there stands an old wishing well.

Spoiler:

So, you're all probably wondering why I've gathered you here today - so far from the heart of Lunacy and your homes! Well, this right here is our wishing well, we've had it for many centuries now. Depending on the sacri-

ahem

, I mean gift, the wish really will come true. No need to worry, it's perfectly safe and there's a lot of fun to be had at the bottom. Not even once have I received a complaint from anyone that we've sent down. Now then, decide between yourselves on who the lucky person will be.

[votato]

first. VOTE: tux. Gambler's fallacy

[midwaybear]

VOTE: votato
He should be the sacri- ... I mean gift

[Dunnstral]

In my experience from playing with midwaybear, he's always scum

VOTE: votato

[votato]

So you're sheeping scum?

[skitter30]

hey all!

hectic that flavor is super great!

@mod i am regularly vla on fridays and saturdays!

VOTE: lilith!

[Dunnstral]

So you're sheeping scum?

I don't believe in gamblers fallacy so... I don't know

[Dunnstral]

My vote is probably misplaced on you, I feel like you're always getting wagoned early.

VOTE: skitter30

A little too cheery for me

[skitter30]

indeed!

[skitter30]

now why is being cheery vote-worthy?

[Dunnstral]

That's a fake persona skitter30

[skitter30]

ok, why is that a fake persona over:

- me being in a good mood this morning?
- me writing p much the exact same rvs post that i've written in nearly every game i've played in the past several months?

[Nahdia]

VOTE: skitter

just gonna say this from the top and maybe ill do better sticking to it: im going to be making an effort to limit the hours in which im an active participant in this game. i enjoy mafia a lot but i also find it exhausting when im constantly thinking about it which leads to apathy. please do me a big favor and yell at me if you notice im posting in the thread all throughout the day. i will be happier and honestly probably better/more engaged in this game if i can practice a little restraint.

[Dunnstral]

I just looked over some of your games. I feel like you get into things faster as town. You start talking about something. I don't agree that you made the same rvs post, aside from you saying hey! and then talking about your vla times

[votato]

My vote is probably misplaced on you, I feel like you're always getting wagoned early.

VOTE: skitter30

A little too cheery for me

Wow already nervously backing off a wagon? Vote me, coward! Or I'll call you scum

[lilith2013]

Happy scumday hectic!

VOTE: skitter speedwagon anyone?

[skitter30]

i mean ... it was post 9, what do you think i ought to have gotten into at that point?
(and i would argue that making a thing with you over my rvs post would be 'getting into things')

my rvs posts usually go:

Spoiler:

{hey all!}

{sometimes game specific comment rvs-y type comment}

{vla}

{vote}

{possibly gameworthy/ai thing if i saw something at that point}

-
if you would like to argue that that's not what my rvs posts look like you're either underinformed or misrepping me, but we don't have to quibble over this if you don't want to

[skitter30]

meh we can start here
VOTE: dunn

[Dunnstral]

Votato this is your moment

You can continue to push me for something that obviously doesn't point at me being scum to cause a distraction, or you can move to skitter who reacted super defensively then tried to vote me for a counterwagon to start

[votato]

VOTE: dunn

[skitter30]

- not reacting defensively
- your push on me is vapid
- i'm kinda intersted that you're framing my vote on you as 'trying to form a cw' over 'think your entrance is scummy'
