represents a prod. Prods are issued after 48 hours of inactivity. Once prodded, if you do not post within 24 hours I will start looking for a replacement. If you are prodded 3 times during the game you will be replaced.

If you do not post in the thread for more than 48 hours, you will be given a prod.
You must reply to this prod by posting in the thread within 24 hours or you will face being replaced.
If you are prodded 3 times you will be replaced regardless of whether or not you answer the prod.
If you know that you are going to be away for more than 48 hours, either activate VLA here or send me a PM saying how long you will be away for.
You may be given a prod for a lack of content if I feel your posts do not contain any content relevant to the game (prodge). These will only be issued upon consecutive prodges.
Deadlines may be extended by up to 48 hours if someone replaces in to give them time to catch up on the thread. The deadline extension may apply to both day and night deadlines regardless of alignment. All deadline extensions will be announced in the thread.
Play to your win condition. Do not throw the game by purposely going out of your way to make another team win, even if you don't like your own team.
Do not attack other players with hostile intent. Mafia is a game of manipulation and, as such, insults will naturally be thrown around as a method of devaluing the opinion of another player. This means that some level of tough skin is required. However, there is a huge difference between playing the game and attacking an individual. If you ever feel like you are being attacked by another individual beyond the boundaries set by the game, PM me immediately.
The mod colour I will be using will be
#0040FF
, do not try to impersonate me by using it or any shades similar to it yourself. Any information posted by me in this colour is important and official information. In general, I would recommend not writing in any colour other than the standard black.
Editing and deleting posts is strictly forbidden to everyone except me. This should be disabled for you, but should you somehow find a way to do so then do not abuse it and instead report it as a bug.
If you make a post with broken tags, you may explicitly ask me to fix them in a new post and I will happily do so. I will not fix tags unless requested to.
Do not quote any PMs that I send you. You may also not quote directly from any messages sent by anyone in any PTs. Copy and pasting a message is allowed as long as it is not quoted. If you do not know whether what you want to say is a quote or just paraphrasing then send me a PM asking if what you want to post is allowed.
Do not use any form of provable randomness. This includes posting proof of random number generators or using the dice tag. Claiming you did something randomly is fine as long as you cannot prove it.
Pretending to break rules or theoretically breaking rules will count as actually breaking the rules. An example of theoretically breaking a rule is posting a role card that you claim the moderator sent you even if it is not actually your role.
If you see someone else breaking any of these rules then report them to me immediately. Failure to do so will result in a harsher punishment for the both of you.
If someone breaks one of these rules in the thread, please refrain from quoting them as this will often repeat the rule break.
If you think that I have made a mistake, whether this is within the vote count or an action resolution, PM me immediately. Do not point out the mistake in the thread. If the fix to this mistake requires a post in the thread then I will do it.
Voting, lynching, night actions & deaths
Votes are only counted if you use a vote tag. Eg: VOTE: mutantdevle. Votes in
bold
are also accepted. Eg.
vote: mutantdevle
. However, vote tags are more appreciated.
Unvoting before voting a player is allowed but not necessary. Eg. UNVOTE: or UNVOTE: mutantdevle.
You may vote for a no lynch. Eg. VOTE: no lynch.
Abreviations in votes are allowed. Eg. VOTE: mutant would mean you are now voting mutantdevle.
If it is not undoubtedly clear who you are voting for then I will quote your vote saying it has not been counted.
You may change your vote an unlimited amount of times.
Once a player has reached a majority they will be lynched. Votes and unvotes will no longer be counted and the game will enter twilight.
During twilight, everyone can continue to post in the thread until it is closed. This includes the player who has just been lynched.
If a majority is not reached before the day countdown runs out, the day will end in a no lynch.
Failure to submit a night action before the night countdown runs out will result in your night action not being used.
Scum players may submit factional abilities on their teammates' behalf, however, any additional abilities they may have can only be submitted by the player they belong to.
You may change the target of your night action as much as you like. When the night countdown runs out, whoever you last submitted your night action on will be your target.
Once your death has been announced in the thread you will no longer be allowed to post. This includes posting in any PTs with the exception of the dead chat.
Role flips will contain the full role card and alignment of the dead player. Any hidden aspects of the role will remain hidden.
Bah posts are not permitted.
You will receive a PM when you have died which will include a link to the dead chat.
Spectators will also have access to the dead chat.
Failure to follow these rules will result in punishments. The punishments can include warnings, force replacements, mod kills, bans from any future games I host and, in extremely rare cases, the game may have to be reset or a player may receive a ban from the entire site. I reserve the right to change these rules at any time and any changes made will be announced in the thread. I will always try to implement the punishment that has the least impact on the game.

& Regulations:
Setup:
There will only be 1 'scum team'.
They may or may not share a PT.
The setup plan is 10v3 town to mafia ratio.
The above points are purposely ambiguous and subject to change.
This list may or may not be updated later to reflect these changes.
There
will not
be any cults.
Mechanics:
Once the thread has been posted, you will have 48 hours to come up with and PM me your first role design.
Each player will then receive their alignment.
The mafia PT will then be opened.
Once alignments are received, you will have 48 more hours to design your 2nd role.
Once this time expires I, and anyone else who has signed up to help balance the game, will discuss which 13 roles to include in the game.
These roles will then be distributed amongst everybody.
Once the roles are
distrubted
, voting may begin. Confirmation is not necessary.
Throughout the entire pre-game process the thread will be open. You may talk about whatever you want to during this time including what roles you are submitting if you choose to do so.
Mafia are given fake claims in the sense that they know what roles they submitted.
Role Design Committee Guidelines:
No cults.
No third parties.
No Vanilla Townies or Goons.
There is no guarantee the roles you submit will be in the game.
You
may
receive your own role submission.
Each submission may only be given to 1 player.
You may submit the exact same role twice.
Roles will be formatted to the player they are given to in the way they are submitted.
This being said, I reserve the right to slightly alter roles.
Allignments are given separately to the roles. However, we may still take into consideration the intended alignment of your role.
Roles that specify an alignment will still display the alignment initially on them. However, the alignment you receive in a separate PM is your official alignment.
You may include hidden mechanics in your role. If your submission contains hidden mechanics, please clearly specify what you don't want to be included in the role PM.
Ideally, these details will be in italics.
You may submit roles that link/function with each other. This can either be done by using both your role submissions or by having another player submit the role (discussion involving this must either be in the thread or PT).
Go crazy and be creative with your role submission. That's kinda the point of this.
This being said, bare in mind that blatantly unbalanced roles probably won't be included.
If you are unsure whether your role is allowed, feel free to PM me with your concerns. I may advise against your submission if I think it's, for a lack of a better word, terrible.
In post 9, StefanB wrote:I hope we will see everythink that the player send postgame.
Role submissions will be revealed at the end of the game.
Wait, how will we decide which roles we want in the game if we can't see them?
StafanB is correct. Once all 26 roles are submitted, a small group of us (not players in the game) are going through the roles and making a 10v3 setup out of that. The whole premise is that you know 2 potentially roles that may or may not be in the game because you designed them. At the end of the game, I will allow everyone to see all the roles that were submitted for anyone that's interested.

The setup has been designed and all role PMs have been sent! Apologies for the delay. Based on this, there are some things that should be taken into account:
Role submissions will be treated the same way as mod PMs. You may claim what role you submitted by paraphrasing or describing it. You may
not
directly quote or copy-paste your role submissions.
Each player may only use 1 ability per phase unless stated otherwise in your role PM. A phase is considered a day OR a night. The factional kill counts as 1 ability.
Any and all abilities or pacifiers that affect voting mechanics will be disabled during LyLo.
LyLo is calculated by the mafia to town ratio. Roles are not factored into whether or not it is LyLo.
Blue writing in role PMs has been added by me.
Anything labelled as 'interpretation' is the way we have decided the role works based on what was written.
Anything labelled as 'edit' is things we have intentionally changed about the role. Any edits made are labelled as such.
Everyone is encouraged to ask questions about their role which I will answer as best as I can.
Day 1 has begun.

Any reference as to what we should do If someone submits a day action?
Or are there no day actions active?
@MOD
I'm not entirely sure what you're asking so I will just quote everything relevant to day abilities for emphasis.
@mutant why did I not receive a prod? Is this mod error or no
In post 230, Kokichi Oma wrote:If you cant reply here, message me the answer. Because I didnt send in a first role and was not prodded. I just received a PM to submit a 2nd role
I was questioning if I should answer this publically but, since this is not AI as it took place before alignments were received, I figure it's worth mentioning as it has inadvertently caused some confusion.
Kokichi did not submit a first role. However, I decided not to issue a prod over it. All matters relating to Kokichi not submitting a 1st role are not AI.

A moderator error has occured.
If ANYONE has seen the post that I have just deleted, please notify me immediately. Failure to do so will result in an immediate mod kill if I ever find out you have seen the previous post.
This error should have no impact on the game assuming no one saw the previous post. Please do not theorise over the cause of the error.

TwoInAMillion
has been lynched!
His role was:
Spoiler: Role
Welcome TwoInAMillion. This is your role:
Interpretation: "You can only submit one role per game to manipulate." means that you can only submit each role once. For example, if you submit cop you may not submit cop again. Roles do not have to be too specific given the nature of the game. You will not be informed on whether your manipulations were successful.
If you have any questions about your role then feel free to ask.

has been lynched!
His role was:
Spoiler: Role
Welcome Not Known 15. This is your role:
Interpretation: You may not submit a guess and use an ability during the same night. If you predict correctly, you MUST use 1 of the 4 actions the next night. Rolecoping will not reveal your target's alignment.
Edit: "any player the next night." was submitted as "any player the next day."
If you have any questions about your role then feel free to ask.

Night 2 has ended.
It seems there were 2 deaths last night...
the worst
has died!
His role was:
Spoiler: Role
Welcome the worst. This is your role:
Interpretation: Infected players are not unlynchable. If you do get lynched in the first 2 days, it will be publically announced that you survived the lynch and that all votes on you will be released. Players may then lynch you over and over again with the same result each time. From day 3 onwards, this effect no longer applies. This will not be publically announced.
The public dice role will be known by everyone. It will be announced that a dice was rolled and that a specified player was the result. No more information that this would be given.
Edit: This was submitted as an ability used during the day.
If you have any questions about your role then feel free to ask.
And his alignment was:
Spoiler: Alignment
Town.
Nico Robin
was also killed!
Her role was:
Spoiler: Role
Welcome Nico Robin. This is your role:
Interpretation: You may perform the factional kill alongside your jailkeep.
If you have any questions about your role then feel free to ask.
