This (darkorange - #FF8C00) is my mod color. Refrain from using it.
Behaviour
- Don't be a dick. Mafia is by nature a heated game where tension is tolerated, but I will not accept personal attacks. Attack the play, not the player.
Don't talk about ongoing games
- You may not talk about this game outside of threads I have created for this purpose. You may not talk about other ongoing games in this thread.
Provable randomness
- is against the rules. Saying that you rolled a dice is fine, using dice tags or random.org is not.
Cryptography and unreadable text
- also against the rules.
Confirmation
- You have about 48 hours to confirm your role and your alignment by PM. Game will start sooner if everyone confirms. Posting in a private topic counts as confirmation.
Days
- Day phases last for 14 days, or until a lynch is reached. Extensions will be provided in the light of replacements.
Activity
- You must post at least once every 48 hours or I will Prod you. You then have 24 hours to post in the game thread or I will replace you. In case you cannot meet these requirements, you should declare
V/LA
in bold in the thread. Additionally, I will force-replace you in you reach 3 prods.
Prodging
- A naked "prod dodge" does not reset the prod timer. To avoid being prodded/replaced for inactivity, include some game advancing content in your prodges, such as "got prodded; xxxx is still scum."
Replacing out
- If you desire to be replaced,
SEND ME A PM
to do so. Do not talk in thread after doing so. Additionally, do not talk about replacements.
Quoting and Timestamps
- You may not quote anything outside of the game thread, whether it is real or fabricated. This includes Moderator PMs and posts in private threads. Additionally, referring to timestamps for the aforementioned messages is forbidden. Paraphrasing these messages are allowed.
Voting
- Votes must be submitted in either of these format: using the vote tags VOTE: nomnomnom or using the bold tags
Vote: nomnomnom
. Strong preference for using vote tags instead of bold tags. Unvotes are nice, but not required. You may shorten the names of people you are voting for as long as they can be uniquely identified (e.g. VOTE: nom and VOTE: nom^3 are acceptable). You may also VOTE: No Lynch to Not Lynch. Do not try to confuse me with your vote.
Lynching
- Days end early when a simple majority of players (50% of living players + 1 rounded down) vote to lynch somebody. If a majority is not reached at deadline or if a majority of the players vote for no lynch, the day will end without a lynch. At evens, 50% is sufficient for no lynch.
Twilight
- Begins when a majority is reached and lasts until I lock the thread. You may continue talking as per usual, including the lynched player. However, no votes or unvotes will be counted.
"Bah!" posting
- Once dead, you may not post in the thread. Contentless "bah!" posts are not allowed either.
Action submissions
- You may submit actions via PM (if town) or PT (if scum). Not submitting an action is equivalent to not taking an action.
Fast night
- On any given night, if all players PM me to end the night sooner, I will do so.
Ruleset changes
- I may alter any of these rules as I see fit. You will be notified when this happens.
Moderation mistakes
- If I were to make a mistake, point it out gently. It will be addressed as soon as possible.
Getting my attention
- If you have any question, you may either send me a PM, or you may bold your text and tag me to get my attention (e.g.
@mod Can we get an extension?
).
Play to Win
- and have fun!
Sample VT PM.

I signed up because this is basically my dream first three players on a list. I’m going to be less active than normal due to other commitments, but I simply couldn’t pass it up

Oh, right, DD is scum, and will probably replace to an alt halfway through the game. I will give up on this read right before being the game losing mislynch.
