Confirmation Stage begins now. Feel free to post, but votes will not count until I officially start the game.
I will officially start the game once all players have confirmed in the manner their Role PM requires, or when 48 hours have passed. Regardless, extra time will be allotted for D1 to account for the Holidays. Similarly, I will not be prodding anyone over Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning.

If anyone would like a PT in which they may collect their thoughts, feel free to request one and it shall be provided. Please remember, directly quoting (or pretending) from PT's provided as part of this game is against my rules. You may paraphrase (or pretend) to your heart's desire. I will not be confirming who has or has not asked for a PT.

No worries. If I ever make a mistake, or you think I have, please bring it to my attention exactly like you did. I expect it'll happen at some point during the game, and I can't correct it if I don't know about it.
Recently we have had a spate of people discussing ongoing games. Though this has led to a record number of ongoing game bans, there may be a perception that there is some wiggle room when it comes to discussing ongoing games. This post is to tell you that there is not.
It does not matter if you are dead.
It does not matter if you don't think it will affect a game.
It does not matter if you aren't in the game.
It does not matter if you are posting about a game taking place on another forum or posting about an MS game on another forum.
It does not matter if you are moderating the game in question.
Discussing ongoing games by quoting or otherwise referring to an ongoing game is forbidden. There is no clever way around this rule. Don't try.
If you are unsure whether something violates the rule against discussing ongoing games, please don't hesitate to contact a listmod.
THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES FOR YOU
Discussing ongoing games may result in a full game ban. This will mean that you are force replaced out of all your games, and you will not be allowed to replace back into them at the end of your ban. Further bans will be far harsher, including and up to a permanent ban from the site.
Game Moderators: Take IMMEDIATE action.
Game moderators are expected to step in and take immediate action when players discuss ongoing games in the game thread -- at least a public warning in the thread not to discuss ongoing games. This is not optional for the game moderator. You may not, as a game moderator, allow people to discuss ongoing games in your thread unless the other game allows for it explicitly in the rules.
Exceptions
There are three primary exceptions.
Communications with authorities
You may PM, IM or otherwise contact the game mod(s), listmods who aren't involved in the game, and admins who aren't in the game. Likewise, listmods and admins will sometimes discuss ongoing games for administrative purposes.
The Game Allows Outside Communication
Where a game allows communication, it may be allowed. This must be EXPLICITLY stated in the rules (and as a listmod, we'd appreciate it if game mods would give us a heads up when this is the case).
Please note that a game mod may allow communications about his or her OWN game to be discussed elsewhere, but he or she may
NOT
allow discussion of other ongoing games in their thread.
Discussions about Activity
Players may discuss activity in other games in a general sense, including counting how many games a player is alive in. However, this may not mention ANYTHING of substance.
---
This isn't a hard rule to stay on the right side of the line on. The listmods would like to never have to take action again. Please don't try and toe the line on ongoing games.
Please do not discuss ongoing games. Speculating on the likeliness a statement is true is completely valid. Statements along the lines of [Player] is in a game that does/does not feature X are not. Please remember to keep all of your arguments in the context of this game, however. If you have questions regarding what is/is not acceptable, feel free to PM me or contact a listmod. Thank you.
To be clear, I do not believe anyone has broken this rule in this game. This is a preemptive post because I would rather not have that situation come up.

LolWagons replaces Soviet Crocolisk.
Fixing VC momentarily.
VC was accurate, I just didn't read context.
Actually, there was a minor formatting error where the wagons were listed in the wrong order. But if anyone wants to complain about that I'll fite you.

In post 2, Jingle wrote:1. I expect a certain level of civility. This is a game about arguing, so tempers run high. If I feel you are being excessive in your aggression, I will ask you to temper your behavior. If you do not, I may take corrective actions that may include force replacement. Severe issues will be reported to the list mod(s).
Try to keep it semi civil. If I feel you're crossing boundaries, I will let you know. Otherwise, go nuts.

I apologize for the lateness, but I believe the OP to be up to date as of yesterday. Sorry for any inconvenience my tardiness may have caused.

Night starts now and will end ~48 hours after all slots have confirmed that they are still playing. As you cannot reply to Prods by posting in thread at the moment, please do so by PM or posting in any provided PT.

Prodding skitter30, Omochao, Lady Angel and Jingle.
Things the mod says that should get us a deadline extension...
And, yes, this is a request, Jingle
VOTE: Robert
In case he doesn't.
My case on him is...well, mostly RVS based, so let's just say his big case on me was bad enough that I think he's faking stuff. That sounds semi-legit.
A little bit late now, but I would have granted an extension had it been asked for as per the rules, particularly number 20 (and to a lesser extent, #8):
20. Extensions will be granted at 48 hours per replacement at the replacements request. All deadlines will pause while a replacement is being found, should that become necessary.
