Spoiler: Rules

Contestant Contract

ALL Site Rules apply.

You can reasonably assume Site Rules supercede My Rules. Specific Site Rules that are common issues are restated below.
1.

No discussion of ongoing games.

This will be taken very seriously. Do not discuss this game outside of the game thread or other games outside of their game threads unless your role PM specifically states that you can. If you aren't sure whether something is okay to say, read the link or consult me.
2.

Do not use secret code, hidden text, or other such cryptography in the game thread

, as this constitutes discussion outside the game thread.
3.

Do not bring in outside influences into the game

such as bets, promises, trust tells, etc.
4.

Replacements are an outside influence.

Do not tell other players to replace out. Do not publicly threaten to replace out of a game. If you do need to replace out, do not publicly discuss your reasons. PM me if you are considering replacing out or have concerns and believe another player should be replaced out.
5.

Do not quote any communications with or from me, the moderator

. You may paraphrase. If you're not sure whether it's okay, ask me.
6.

Don't be a jerk.

Use common sense. Abusive behavior, game-irrelevant harassment, slurs, and threats will not be tolerated. You should play to win, but you should also be considerate to the other humans playing this game. Breaking this rule in particular can make things very unfun. I do not want to see that happen.

Monty Hall's Rules

1.

I am the mod.

I reserve the right to change or add rules, and will inform the players of this. I reserve the right to make the final decision in problematic circumstances and rules infractions, potentially including force replacements, or modkills with or without warning.
2.

I am a fair mod.

PM me ASAP if you see a mod error or a rules break. I will do my best to fix things. I guarantee fairness and non-bastardness.
3.

Do not pretend to break the rules.

I will treat this as actually breaking a rule.
4.

If your account is not listed, do not post in the game thread.

If you post from the wrong account, I expect you to correct this ASAP.
5.

When dead, you may have one game-irrelevant substanceless "Bah!" post

. Do not reveal any information or otherwise post once you're dead.

Activity Expectations

6.

This game is a commitment.

Please treat it as such. If you need to go V/LA, just let us know

in bold

and mark it in your profile. Otherwise, prods will be issued every 2-day period without game-relevant posting. If you don't respond or I keep having to prod you, I will replace you.
7.

Play the game.

"Prod-dodging" every 47.9 hours does not constitute treating this game as a commitment. I expect game-relevant posts and reasonable activity, and will give warnings and prods to players that do not appear to be playing the game in good faith.

Running Times

8.

Every phase will last (number of players alive + 2) real life days.

If there are 5 players alive, the deadline is 7 days. Extensions of up to 2 days for replacements.
9.

Voting

: Use the vote tags (VOTE: Mathdino) or the bold tags (

Vote: Mathdino

). Misspellings, shortenings, and abbreviations are okay.

Broken tags won't count.

Don't test my willingness to count your vote.
10.

Unvoting

: Use the unvote tag (UNVOTE: Mathdino) or the bold tags (

Unvote: Mathdino

). You do not need to unvote.
11.

Majority rules

. Protections/lynches will occur upon strict majority. Soon-to-be-dead players may continue posting in a "Twilight" phase until I lock the thread.
12.

Plurality lynch

: Plurality lynch will occur if there is no majority by the deadline of the Lynch Phase. Ties between lynch wagons will be broken based on which wagon's most recent vote was placed first. No Lynch is not an option.

Fine Print

13.

#ffbf40 Tahoma text

will be my mod color.

I may edit posts or post responses in the game thread like this to differentiate myself.

Do not use it!
14.

IF YOU NEED ME TO SEE SOMETHING, BOLD IT.

Ideally use

@Mod

or

@Mathdino

. You may ask for vote counts, V/LA, prods on other players, rules clarifications, and setup clarifications at any point within reason. I guarantee some kind of response.
15.

This is a game, remember to have fun!

Remember that as mafia is a social/debate game, it's okay to attack people's play, but it's never okay to attack the person. It's just a game. Play nice.

Mechanics

:

• Nightless
  . Deals (Days) occur in two phases:
  Protect Phase
  and
  Lynch Phase
  .
  
• Pre-game
  : Mafia must submit a kill list of all town players.
  
• Protect Phase
  : Players vote for a player to be protected from the mafia kill for that day. No player may be protected two days in a row.
  
• Once a player is hammered, the first unprotected living player on the mafia's kill list is revealed to be poisoned.
  
• Lynch Phase
  : Players vote for a player to be lynched.
  
• Once a player is hammered, the lynched player and the poisoned player both die, and the next day begins.
  
• Lynches are compulsory. Plurality protect/lynch will occur if there is no majority by the end of either phase.

Ok sorry I asked the listmod if I could take over the OP. Don't get me wrong when you come back you can still be the mod and stuff if you want but the thread is locked rn so I'm powerless without the first post and I really don't think we should leave the players waiting much longer.
