The Rules:
(You know the first rule of combat? Shoot them before they shoot you.)
(Etiquette) This is a game so have fun and play to win. Don't let things get personal and try to watch the language.
(Voting) During Day you may vote for the player you want to lynch. Votes should be in the form
Vote: Player
or they will not be counted. It is helpful to "
Unvote;
" when switching your vote to a different player, but this is not required.
(Lynching) Whenever a player has a majority in votes that player will be lynched, his or her role will be revealed, and Night will begin. You may also decide to
Vote: No Lynch
and a majority of No Lynch votes will end the Day without a death.
(Deadlines) Each Day will begin with a 3-week deadline (21 days). Players can ask for deadline extensions, which are granting subjectively and based on activity levels. If no one has reached a majority at the deadline, the decision with the most votes will occur. If two decisions have an equal number of votes, the decision that reached its final vote first will occur. (decision = player or No Lynch)
(Twilight) After a hammer, decision, or deadline has passed you may talk as long as the thread is open but no further votes will be counted. Power roles and people who can talk at night can start their business at twilight.
(Night) During Night, players with role abilities may PM their night choices to the mod. Choices are due by the posted deadline (typically 72 hours), but the next game day may start earlier if all choices are sent in early.
(Conflicting Night Actions) In the event of conflicting night actions (i.e. a mutual roleblock, or deciding kill flavor when someone is targeted by multiple kills), priority is given to whoever PMs the mod with the action first.
(No post editing) Don't edit/delete posts. You shouldn’t be able to anyway. Use the "Preview" button to look over your post before you submit it.
(No PM quoting) Don't directly quote a PM from the Moderator during the game. Don’t quote a fake PM from the Moderator. You will be mod killed if you do.
(No Jesters) Nobody is a jester or a survivor. If anyone starts up that discussion they will be sufficiently whipped.
(Outside talk) Read your Role PM to know if you are allowed to talk outside the game thread with anyone, and when you are allowed to talk. If it doesn’t say anything about talking with players outside this thread, then you are not allowed to do it.
(Bah post) If you are killed, you are allowed 1 unrevealing "bah" post the next day. After that, you may not talk until the game is over.
(Prodding) I will prod inactive players as I see fit. You may request a prod on someone if they do not post in 72 hours. If a prodded player does not open the prod PM within an additional 72 hours he or she may be replaced. Until a replacement is found the player facing replacement can return to playing the game. If I have to prod a player 3 times during the game, I may replace them.
(V/LA) Treat this game as a commitment. If you expect to be unable to post in the game for 72+ hours, please send me a PM or state your V/LA in thread.
(Sample Role PM)You are a
Vanilla Townie
in the White Tiger Crime Syndicate. All you have is your vote and your wits.
You win with the town when all threats to the town are eliminated.
Here is the game thread:
Link (in the sub-forum: Coney Island)
Confirm in thread and start posting. Good luck.
(One Last Thing) For flavor purposes the town (uninformed majority) in this game is sometimes called a mafia, or more specifically a crime syndicate (The White Tiger Crime Syndicate). The threat to the town in this game is called scum; bounty hunters; the crew of the Bebop.
(Questions) If you have any question, complaint, or comment, post in
bold
but remember I am only a data dog. Woof.
