Rules:


1. This is just a game. Have fun and stay civil.
2. Do not talk about this game outside of this thread unless your PM specifically tells you otherwise.
3. Do not quote any PM's from the mod.
4. Do not use invisible or small text or other methods that are aimed to deceive the mod and fellow players.
5. Do not use
this color
as it is the mod's color.
6. Any violations of these rules can and will lead to a warning and/or modkill.

7. Votes must be formatted in the following fashion:
Vote: Player
. Unvotes are recommended but not mandatory. If you wish to end the day without a lynch you can
Vote: No Lynch
.
8. It will take the majority to lynch, half of the remaining player list to no lynch. If no majority is reached at deadline, the day will end in a no lynch.
9. After a majority has been reached you may keep talking until the mod posts the lynch scene.
10. Do not post after you're dead. A dead topic will be provided where you can share your thoughts and follow the game while it is still running.
11. The day phase deadline is set at three weeks, the night phase deadline at 72 hours.
12. If a person with a night action does not submit his or her action before the night deadline, the action will be forfeit.

13. If a player hasn't posted in 72 hours they will be prodded. If they don't respond to the prod within 48 hours I will be looking for a replacement. Three prods in one game day will lead to an automatic replacement.
14. Players can announce V/LA's (Vacation/Limited Access) that must be either bolded in this thread or sent to the mod via PM. If you miss more than 50% of a game day due to V/LA's you will be force replaced.

15. Since the mod is only human, feel free to request vote counts and prods if you see the need to. Any other questions regarding the setup should be send via PM.
16. This ruleset may or not be complete so I reserve the right to change it if I see it fit.

Role pms are out. The game is now open for pre-game discussion. The game will officially start once I have received eight confirmations via pm. The Mafia QT will stay open until then. Votes do not count before the game starts. Good luck everyone!

Thanks Dekes! I wish everybody a great game!
I realized that I was planting seeds, and that it was important to stay low-key, because once you say, 'I've got it' or 'This is it,' then resistance starts to build. But, if you start giving away seeds, people will claim their seeds. Some nurture them and grow them, and that makes a foundational change.

Hello everyone!

I'm you're IC. I'm not here to tell you what to do or how to play, but I will answer questions and help you understand the common terms, acronyms, and theory used around the site, whenever something relevant gets brought up in this game. The SE's and mod will be able to help as well. I don't plan to spend large amounts of posts lecturing as I believe the best way to teach is through example, but I will take the time to explain certain things at certain times if necessary. I'm here to play to win, and I'm not going to pull any punches just because you may be new. Remember its never personal, its all part of the game.

I look forward to getting to know you all and I hope we have a great game! If anyone has any questions to ask me before we get started, now is a great time to do that.

Recent news of increased beatings, protection rackets and even murders has your once peaceful town of Mobsville in shock. Rumors say it's the Cosa Nostra trying to take over your town. While most of you hide in fear, a select few under the leadership of Michael Oliver Dekes have decided to resist and fight for the safety of Mobsville. You've started to efficiently sabotage some of the mafia activities until this morning when M. O. Dekes was found dead in your secret hideout. Apparently the mafia has infiltrated your little group seeking to destroy the last glimmer of hope. Unless you can find the traitors and kill them, Mobsville is lost for good.


Michael Oliver Dekes, aka M.O.D., Flavor Aid, was killed pre-game.


It is now Day 1.

Am I the only one noticing this whole deadline mistake? It says April 4th, but that was last Monday. I am guessing he meant the 14th....

Random voting?

Vote: weirdalexv


Can't have a weirdo hanging around, can we? lol JK... I'm just sad he hasn't dropped in to say "hello"

Right each day should have fixed three week deadlines. May 4th would be the deadline.

@Mafarfloune (and anyone else this applies to): Please consider setting a picture avatar in your user control menu. It helps to keep everything everyone has said straight if there is a picture to associate with a player rather than a username (remember, a pictuer is a thousand words, a username is just 1!)

@[Low Key]: how many votes does it take before you can say someone has a wagon on them? (Also, why the annoying braces in your username :P)

Everyone else: How much experience do you have with the game of mafia in general and what brought you to this site?

This is my first game ever. The only experience I have is from observing and a few tips and pointers from my love <3 chkflip-- Idk if you know him, but he is what brought me to this site.

Also,
unvote

vote: July


I just saw them online and no post what so ever, lurking makes me a little scared especially this soon in the game.

Well Rhinox I did an ISO of you and you have spent all of day 1 obsessed with Fungo (tunnelling if you will) and so I think that definitely deserves my vote :P

I use the braces to remind me to give away my seeds nicely (but sometimes I need to use a slingshot). :lol:

I do know chkflip! he recently did me a huge favor and replaced into the game I'm modding. Thus you're now also super cool in my book by association :) Welcome!

hmmm... So you're saying July logged on, read the thread, then left without saying anything? Suppose that happened, what motivation would she have to do that as scum?

I am saying that I saw her name on the active users list and she was browsing in the forum. As scum (especially new scum) she may want to lurk not to bring attention to herself. Low on the radar can mean you have something to hide- why would you abstain from "random" voting if you had nothing to hide. I think she might be a little afraid to call someone out for fear of a retaliation vote.

@July: Please post within the forum. Deliberate lurking is anti-town at the very least and worthy of additional voting pressure if continued. :/
