6. Don't use encryption, tiny/hidden/unreadable text, or anything that could be easily confused for such.

Other rules
10. Days begin with a deadline of 14 days.
11. Days end when one of the following events occurs:
-The deadline is reached.
-A player is lynched.
-A town-aligned player is modkilled.
12. Votes should be made via the vote tag: "VOTE: playername", or by using
Vote: Player Name
. Full player names or initial segments are preferred.13. I will interpret malformed votes according to my own discretion. In general, if it looks like a vote, I will probably count it as a vote. I may edit malformed votes for easier counting; if so, I will make it clear that I have done this. This means no fake hammers and such.
14. Votes can’t be in spoilers or quotes.
15. Nights will last 48 hours or until every living player gives me permission to end the night early.
16. There is no night posting in the game thread.
17. Unless otherwise specified, use of night abilities is optional, and if no action is submitted no action will occur.
18. You can submit night actions in your factional topic, if they should exist, as long as it is bolded and easily identifiable.
19. “bah” posts must not include any information about the game!
20. Scum may use both their abilities and commit the night kill.
Activity
21. Once the game begins, all players must post within 48 hours or a replacement will be sought.
22. Players who do not post for 48 hours in a single game-day will incur a prod.
23. Players who do not post for 24 hours following a prod will be replaced.
24. Players who incur three prods will be replaced.
25. Prod dodges are not recommended. If it looks like you have been fairly active for most of the game, I will not care, but if you are lurking and not contributing much, I will warn you. If you continue to prod dodge, i will replace you
26. If for any reason you are temporarily unable to meet these requirements, you may declare V/LA status in thread and be excused. V/LA declarations must include a definite end date.
27. Notwithstanding V/LA status, any player who does not post at all for seven days will be replaced.
Note
28. My modding color is Italic Gold (do not use it)
29. If you think you need to use that color to help improve your posts, please make sure it isn’t Italic. This should be easy.
30. The setup is 10:3
