I generally severely dislike cult games. I think they tend to be unfair, frustrating, futile, and ultimately unenjoyable most of the time. I've made this game in an attempt to make a cult game I think is fair, unique, exciting, and very enjoyable for all. It's a game I would love to play myself and am looking forward to modding it.
game-specific rules and mechanics:
- Rocky Horror Picture Show
is a cult movie and this will be a cult game based on that movie. It shouldn't be any other way!
publicly known cult mechanics:
There are two cults / 2 cult leaders. Both cult leaders may attempt to recruit once per Play/Pause cycle. Once recruited into a cult a player's alignment can not change again.
All players except the cult leaders start as part of a neutral survivor faction.
Not all roles are cult-recruitable. Most players will not know if their role is cult-recruitable unless recruited.
Players will use their vote to choose who to make immune to recruiting. This can be done x# times during the game, a maximum of once per play/pause cycle - (instead of lynching - there is no lynching) !
- it is always Night over at the Frankenstein Place. The game thread is always open.
/ - the game cycles between these two states
- players may submit actions and vote, actions are queued until PAUSE
- players may not submit actions or vote, actions are resolved by order of submission

If you have anything to address with me (ANY questions, issues, concerns, ANYTHING) . I encourage PM communication with me - do not address me in the game thread
, I'm not in the game.
2. - Conduct yourselves in a civilized and gamesmanship manner. Have fun & help each other have fun and play to your win condition. Remember that it should be everyone's primary goal to have fun while they seek to achieve their win condition. With this in mind, also realize that disagreements, contention, and frustration can be part of the game and is all game-inclusive, and hopefully ultimately fun! Nothing is to get personal and things are not to be taken personally. If someone upsets you, try to convince others they are scum and try to get them lynched
PM me about it. If it goes too far I will take measures.
3. - reference, allusion, or mentioning at all of other ongoing games is . Don't even think about other games when you're thinking about this game, just to be safe!

to breaking this rule!
