Do not attempt to imitate the mod.

† The co-mod's color(s) is to be determined.
8.

Any and all discussion, appeal, etc. of actions taken by the moderator should be done privately by pm. In addition, you should contact the moderator *first* rather than break the chain of command.†

Activity, Deadlines, Voting, and Lynches

9. Prods are issued after

48 hours,

60 hours on weekends.

You have

24 hours

to respond to the prod before you are

force-replaced

, barring an emergency that could *not* be planned for in advance.

V/LAs should be announced in advance, and minimal activity levels are expected for long V/LAs.

10.

Moderator discretion will be used to determine when to replace a player for inactivity. There is no "magic number" of prods. Inactivity Criteria: Current Phase, Posting Frequency, Posting Content, Prod-Dodge Frequency, Thread Activity, Mod Discretion.

11. Days last

Max( 16 - 2d, 5 )

days each, where d represents the current day number. (So, Day 1 is 14 days, D2 is 12, etc. to a minimum of 5 days). Nights last

48 hours

each. Day extensions will be granted on a case-by-case basis. Nights will be extended for prods and replacements. A minimum of 3 days will be granted to all Day replacements.

Pre-Game will last an approximate minimum of 48 hours (after role pms) and all threads will be open during this time. You are expected to post at least once in the main thread during this phase, or you will be prodded.

12.

Only 1 contentless "Bah!" post allowed! No exceptions.

†‡
13. No Lynch and/or regular lynches require simply majority to pass; deadline results in no lynch. All players may continue talking in twilight. Twilight ends when the thread is either locked and/or the final vote count is posted. (Posting should cease.)†
13a.

At a certain point in the game, lynches may become plurality. You'll be notified when this happens.

Communicating with the Moderator

14.

All vote count errors should be addressed in-thread like this:

@Mod - Player X was voting for Player Y not Player Z in post N.

15. If you have any other questions,

send me a private message.

†

I will *NOT* address in-thread questions. If I do not respond to a pm, but it's not in your outbox, then either 1) You're not getting an answer or 2) I'm writing the response then or later. Do *NOT* pester me multiple times with the same question.

Miscellaneous

16. This isn't America;

I reserve the right to take action ex post facto.

In addition, I may edit this ruleset at any time with or without notice.

Edits will be marked with

underlines

and

strike-throughs

17. All major decisions, such as modkills, will be discussed with a backup mod or a list mod first; that being said, I lock the thread at any time for any reason.

18.

To end night early, all living players must be agree to the proposition. Vanilla and Named Townies who are ok with it for one night are assumed to be for subsequent nights unless I'm informed otherwise.

19.

This game is multiball.

20.

You must read your ENTIRE role pm in order to confirm correctly. This *includes* the flavor text.

20a.

Please read the "Public Knowledge" section of the initial post.

21.

All PTs will be released

*immediately*

when the game ends.

Please inform me *BEFORE* then if you want anything editted out.

† - Infractions of these rules may result in modkills; modkills on town will end the day phase with no lynch.
‡ - Infraction of these rules will be reported to the list mod.

Spoiler: Sample Role PM

Welcome,

Frozen Angel

, to Light and Darkness Mafia (Mini 0)!
You are

Leader of Zanos

.

Many have tried to rise to the top, and many have failed. To be the leader of Zanos requires a certain balance of both Light and Darkness. Those who lack light lack kindness and courage. Those who lack darkness lack stability in power and cunning. The leader must have all those traits, yet the leader, like all citizens of Zanos, has a natural affiliation with one or the other.

May you, through your leadership, let light shine and triumph over all who oppose it.

Role:

• Leader of Zanos - As the leader of Zanos, you are entitled to two votes during the day. You must specify (in-thread) whether or not you want to use your second vote. (It will be assumed you do not.)
  
• Effectively, you are
  Doublevoter
  
  
• You win when the Mafia are eliminated and the opposing town loses. Please take special note of your faction's lose condition.
  
• If you are the sole remaining player of your faction, you will be endgamed and automatically lose and exit the game.

Confirm by pm'ing me your full alignment (*READ THE FLAVOR TEXT*), flavor name, and effective role.

[Ircher]

Dawn (Pre-Game) Begins!

Zanos, the world of Light and Darkness, is led by its leader, the one who possesses a fragile balance between the Light and the Darkness. The leader must be kind, brave, cunning, and powerful in order to keep Zanos at peace; without these traits, Zanos becomes a battleground as the two opposing forces, Light and Darkness, struggle for power.

It is at this time, a time without a balanced leader, when the invaders came. Some of them attempted to restore peace to Zanos, but most of them only deepened the rift. The divine of Zanos decide to intervene; they tried to find someone in Zanos who met all the requirements. Alas, their search ends in failure. It is at this critical time when one suggests a contest to determine the leader of Zanos.

As a result, a contest began and the best of Zanos were invited. It is your task to determine a new leader for Zanos so that Zanos may have peace again.

Note: You are expected, in addition to confirming your role, to post at least once here during this phase, or you will be prodded. Posting in a private thread will NOT count.

Dawn ends on July 2, 2016 9:30 PM EST or in (expired on 2016-07-02 21:30:00)
