I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”
. You can use it if you want, just don't attempt to impersonate me.
Behaviour
- Don’t be a dick. This is a heated game but toxicity will not be tolerated. Attack the play not the player. If your fellow players tell you to stop, you must stop. If you do not stop, I will tell you to stop. If you still do not stop, you will be force-replaced. Asking people to stop voting you or to stop scumhunting you entirely doesn't count for this rule and you may find yourself lynched if you try it.
Don't talk about ongoing games
- You may not talk to each other 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.
- 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 1 lasts up to 10 days and other days last up to 7 days. Extensions may or may not be granted if there are replacements, or if the circumstances call for it (for example, if the site was experiencing issues).
Activity
- You must post at least once every 36 hours or I will Prod you. You then have 24 hours to post in the game thread or I will replace you. If you come back before I find a replacement, you can stay. Players can request me to prod somebody early. This will only count as an official prod if you don't post before you would have been due for a prod. If you haven't posted in the 24 hours before the thread is locked for night, you must reply to the night start PM or you will be replaced during the night.
Vacation/Limited Access
- If you need to be absent for longer than this, you should declare
V/LA
in bold in the thread like this: [
b]
@Mod: I will be v/la until Thursday
[
/b]. While you are V/LA, you will be nudged once every 60 hours. Two nudges equals one prod. If you have not posted game advancing content in 5 days, regardless of V/LA status, you will be replaced.
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."
Quoting
- You may not quote (or copy paste) any private information into the thread, including your role PM and any mod communication.
Voting
- Votes must be in bold in the format VOTE: Datisi or
Vote: Datisi
. Strong preference for using vote tags instead of bold tags. Unvotes are nice but not required. If I think it’s a vote, it’s a vote, no tricks. Type [
v]Datisi[
/v] to vote and [
uv]Datisi[
/uv] to unvote.
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. It takes (100% of living players + 1) votes to lynch the Moderator.
Twilight
- Begins when a majority is reached and lasts until I lock the thread. You're still alive until I flip you so you can talk in any game threads you have access to until then, but no votes or unvotes will be counted.
Night
- Night lasts at least 48 hours. The night phase can be shortened if every living player -- even those with no night actions -- agrees to it and if I'm not busy.
Action submissions
- You may submit actions via PM (if town) or PT (if scum). If the actions are not submitted by the deadline then you do nothing. You can change your mind as many times as you like before the deadline.
Reminders
- If I don't hear from you about your night actions, I'll PM you 24 hours before the deadline. This doesn't count as a prod. If I still don't hear from you, you will take no action.
Notes PT
- Let me know if you want a private thread to store your thoughts and feedback for the other players. This thread will be made public immediately after the game. You may draft posts in your notes PT but you may not talk about your notes PT in public. You definitely may not use the notes PT to demonstrate that you've had a town mindset in private all along; just put your town mindset in public to begin with and keep your notes to yourself.
Play to win
- this particular game, not some future one, and keep it fun!
Setup Specific
- Private Topics will be open at all times.

And all role PMs have been sent out! We will begin in (expired on 2020-05-13 07:57:33), or when 8 out of 9 people confirm, whichever happens sooner.
Currently confirmed: 9/9

Knightmare491 has (expired on 2020-05-13 07:57:33) to confirm their role before I start looking for a replacement.

I used a random number generator to decide today's lynch. I guess after this I'm going to have to retire this account. My new name will just be "Luciano".
. Driven by that loss, I have devised new methodologies and weightings specifically for players who, like you, look like piles of festering scum on fire when I run it through my normal calculations.
Has it improved? Dare I say it can peer into your play and divine the scum-nature of your soul?
Possibly... it did correctly pick you out as not-scum in Newbie1996 after I subbed in.
“There are two kinds of people in this world: those who say, ‘There are two kinds of people in this world: those who say there are two kinds of people in this world,
I dunno man, I made an active effort to play obvtown in 1995. That's rare for me to do. Somehow I was still tunneled by 3 separate town players. Then again I have also been tunneled in all of my other games. /shrug. I'm just a shining light and everyone wants to chase after the light at the end of the tunnel. It's tough to be me.
A2P-Edit1: I know, I was pointing out that the flaw wasn't in your system but in humanity itself.
A2P-Edit2: Yes! I'm trying to take the game less seriously because I'm tired of getting frustrated and lashing out at people. I don't remember doing this when I played mafia years ago on my old site, and I don't like myself when I'm snappy.
A2P-Edit3: Let's replace randomness with chaos, that's a better way of putting it.
I can neither confirm nor deny that, as I do not have a separate thread labeled "Mafia PT". Because I cannot prove non-existence, I must assume that this thread may in fact be the Mafia PT.
