I General Rules

- All normal site rules and mafia rules are in effect. You can find these HERE.
- Keep toxicity to a minimum, for everyone's sake. If you get so heated up that you want to make personal insults, maybe go for a walk instead. Pet a pet. Draw a picture.
- I reserve the right to modkill or force replace players if necessary.
- If you wish to communicate with me in thread, please bold your statements.
- If you have any complaints or other more delicate matters to discuss, drop me a PM.
-
>>This<<
is my modding colour. Do not use it, or anything so close to it that it could fool another player.
- Do not encrypt, hide, or otherwise make your text unreadable. You know the drill.
- Do not quote from any PTs you are in. You may paraphrase.
- Rules may change based on mod discretion. Should any rule changes occur, they will be announced publicly.
- Rule changes may be suggested by the players, but will generally be subject to an anonymous majority vote in addition to mod agreement to take effect.

II Voting, Lynching, Death

- Votes will only count in the following two formats. The first one is preferable:
VOTE: Foxbird
VOTE: Foxbird

- Abbreviations and other player nicknames as well as typos are allowed in the votes, as long as it doesn't become unrecognisable to me.
- A No Lynch is a possible vote option.
- A lynch will occur when a majority is reached. A majority is half the players alive, rounded down plus one.
- If there is no majority vote at deadline, there will be no lynch.
- Talking after deadline and/or lynch is allowed, up until the thread is locked.
- If you’re dead, do not continue posting in the thread. This includes ‘bah’ posts of any kind.

III Activity

- Days will last two weeks (14 days).
- Nights will last two days (48 hours).
- Deadlines will be extended upon probable cause. You may also request extensions if you think they are needed.
- Should a replacement be found during a Night phase, the deadline will be extended regardless of the slot’s night actions.
- Night actions may be submitted via PM or bolded in the Mafia PT.
- Prods will occur after 48 hours of not posting.
- A player will be replaced if they fail to pick up their prod after 24 hours or immediately upon their third prod.
- Repeated prod dodges will not be tolerated if there is no content posted in-between. A player who prodges this way twice in a row is still susceptible to a forced replacement.
- V/LA should be PMed to the mod or announced in thread. Players are ineligible for prods during V/LA periods, though I reserve the right to replace a player anyway, should their V/LA be so long that it disrupts the game.
- A night phase can be accelerated if every player alive messages me with a request to do so. The day will resume once the last needed PM comes in.
- A day phase can be accelerated if every player alive messages me
the night before
. An accelerated day lasts a week (7 days).

IV Setup Information

- Flavour is not alignment-indicative.
- I will not answer any setup questions in thread. If there are questions, PM me instead.
- The Mafia do have daytalk.
- This game uses the Natural Action Resolution (NAR) system for conflicts between roles.
- Mafia players are able to perform their factional night kill and another action in the same night.
- All players have received one of the following win conditions:
Spoiler: Town Win Condition
You win when all threats to the Town have been eliminated.

Spoiler: Mafia Win Condition
You win when your faction has become the majority of players alive, or when nothing can prevent this from happening.

Salutations.

I would like to discuss the pros/cons of mass flavor claiming. Please note that I am not actually proposing it as yet, I'd just like to discuss it.

The nature of this game intrinsically suggests that character is not linked to alignment. However, claiming flavor right from the start severely limits scum's ability to fakeclaim later on. You can't claim Kerrigan now, then pretend to be a Doctor later. It doesn't make sense. The downside of this, of course, is the reverse; someone claiming Lt. Morales would likely be perceived by scum to be a Doctor, despite the fact that Morales also has powers that could serve to provide Commute, Roleblock, or even Invent.

My point here is that, while claiming flavor this early is usually a bad idea, it deserves discussion this time around.

I kinda like these double edged ideas, makes the game more fun. But what prevents us from fakeclaiming? And i really doubt more than half of us will agree to this. Should in that case just half of us claim?

I'd probably hold off for now; I think certain heroes are probably going to be obviously pigeonholed into certain archetypes more than others (jaina comes to mind), and I think it's going to give scum a good sounding board at night for figuring probability of hitting stronger vs weaker PRs or PRs of a certain type vs the (imo low) ROI of forcing someone to have to stretch farther lorewise to make the fakeclaim they want to make.

There's also no going back if we do it now, whereas the reverse is not true.

I'm not opposed to the idea but I think it should definitely be unanimous before we do it

if we're doing mass flavor claim it absolutely needs to be everyone, not just half the players. that said, after seeing , I'm in agreement with holding off for now.
