To in please PM me 1-5 GIM roles. You may not submit anything past this post. You can change these at any time until the final rolelist is determined. You may

not

submit the same role twice or the same role under different alignments. For example, Town 1-Shot Governor may be submitted, but Town 1-Shot Governor

and

Mafia 1-Shot Governor may not. Town 1-Shot Vigilante Governor and Mafia 1-Shot Governor may be submitted.

Please include what post number your picks are when submitting them.

Also, I have gotten this question enough times for me to answer it here: No, the rest of your picks are

not

revealed when the game starts. You can say what they were for all I care, but I will not say what they are.

Spoiler: List

Note: This list isn't exhaustive. If you're unsure about a pick, please message me.

Allowed Submissions:

- Town 1-Shot Governor, Town Vigilante and Town Doctor Cop.
- Town 1-Shot Governor and Mafia 1-Shot Disloyal Governor ->

Disloyal makes the Mafia Governor different enough to count.

- Town Governor and Mafia 1-Shot Governor ->

1-Shot makes the Mafia Governor different enough to count, however, I'd ask for an argument why I should accept it.

- Jester and Bulletproof Jester ->

I don't know why you'd waste a pick submitting Jester when you sent Bulletproof Jester, but I'd accept both picks.

Prohibited Submissions:

- Town 1-Shot Governor and Mafia 1-Shot Governor ->

The roles are identical.

- Named VT and Named Mafia Goon ->

If the role is strictly a named role and it gives the role no other abilities, any other roles that do the same thing are considered identical. For example, Chocolate Townie and Chocolate Goon would be considered the same since neither gain any special abilities from the Chocolate part of their name.

Disclaimer: I reserve the right to reroll/substitute roles that I feel are too broken. If you submit an extremely broken role, I may give you VT instead. Please use common sense when picking. If you can justify why I should allow your broken pick, (explaining why it'd be fun for me/everyone else), I will allow you to keep the pick. Otherwise I will instantly veto it.

Spoiler: Rules

Rules and Such

Stolen from my old rules, which I forgot if I

stole

borrowed without permission from anyone...

General Rules/Game Etiquette

1. Obey all site-wide rules. We should all know this by now, right? Right?
   
2. Talking outside of the thread about this game is forbidden. The only way you're allowed to is if your role gives you permission to a PT. If that's the case, you may talk about the game in there.
   
3. Quoting any private communications in the thread isn't allowed either. You're allowed to quote it in any PTs you have access to, just not the main thread.
   
4. Flavor is merely flavor. It doesn't mean anything further than a story I'm trying to tell. You can read/play the entire game without understanding a single bit of the flavor.
   
5. Follow the golden rule, (do unto others as you would have them do unto you), at all times. I understand mafia can get heated, but keep it civil.
   
6. If you can somehow edit/delete your posts, don't. If I find out you did, then I'll have to figure out exactly what I do next, and it'll probably result in a reroll.
   
7. Play towards your win-condition at all times. Don't gamethrow.
   
8. I reserve the right to update these rules as I see fit. Rule updates will be announced publicly in thread.

Activity/Prods and V/LA

1. At least once every 48 hours, you
   must post relevant, game-advancing content,
   otherwise you will be prodded.
   
2. If you actually post literally once every 48 hours, I reserve the right to change your prod-timer to be 24hrs.
   
3. If you accumulate three prods OR you do not reply within 24hrs of the prod, you will be replaced.
   
4. Prodges will delay the prod-timer for 24hrs.
   
5. If you are V/LA, prods will come every 72 hours.
   
6. All V/LAs must be declared in thread, or via the V/LA tags.
   
7. If you will have an excessively long V/LA or will not have regular access to the internet/forums, please request replacement instead.

Deadlines/Player Actions

1. Unless told otherwise, each day will last two weeks, and each night will last two days.
   
2. If the day/night is extended for any reason, I will post that in thread.
   
3. If you possess any actions, you must submit it to
   me
   otherwise it will be treated as if you took no action.
   
4. If you may target multiple people, you must specify which action targets which player, otherwise I will disregard them.

Voting

1. A simple majority is required to lynch, (half the player list, rounded down, plus one).
   
2. No-Lynch requires a simple majority if the number of living players is odd, and only half if the number is even.
   
3. If you are using an abbreviation of a player's name, please make sure we can understand who you are referring to. If we can't, it doesn't count.
   
4. If it looks like a vote, it is a vote.
   
5. Unvoting isn't required, but appreciated.
   
6. There is no plurality, and if you don't lynch someone by deadline, nobody gets lynched.
   
7. If you have multiple votes, your oldest vote is changed before the newer ones.

Setup Specific Rules

1. The game is confirmed to have at least three town-aligned members, and two mafia/werewolf-aligned players. If that requirement isn't met, alignments will be changed to meet it.
   
2. All PTs have daytalk enabled and will not change unless some role causes it to.
   
3. Jesters and Lynchers do not automatically end the game if they win.
   
4. Cults cannot recruit informed scum. (Eg. Mafia cannot be recruited, but Serial Killers can.)
   
5. If a Lyncher's target is night-killed, they become a Neutral Survivor instead.
   
6. All win conditions for all major groups are listed below:
   
   Town
   : You, and the
   Town
   win once
   all threats to the

   Town

   are eliminated, and at least one

Miscellaneous Rules

1. Twilight lasts until the thread is locked, and the player's role is posted.
   
2. You aren't dead until you are told you are dead, and your role has been posted.
   
3. When you are dead, you are allowed to make one contentless Bah! post.
   
4. Do not use the following colors:
   #006769
   , which I will use for modding, and
   #ff9896
   , which I will use for flavor.
   
5. Follow the spirit of the rules.

/spectate

I'd join but I don't think I should be putting another large game on my plate right now

let's ignore the fact that there's a high chance I will soon proceed to do exactly that

I'll send you the spectator/dead PT when the game is filled, just so I can make all the PTs and update my mod PT at once.

[Korina]

Yea, max of five.

[Korina]

Yea, max of five.

This will be added to the OP, but if anyone is curious about more detailed information about role picking and stuff:
You may submit up to five GIM roles, but at least one. Your picks can be all the same alignment, all different alignments, a mix of alignments or some combination thereof. It doesn't matter. The only restrictions on what you can't pick are: 1) Identical roles, regardless of alignment. 2) It must be before this post.

Spoiler: List

Note: This list isn't exhaustive. If you're unsure about a pick, please message me.

Allowed Submissions:

- Town 1-Shot Governor, Town Vigilante and Town Doctor Cop.
- Town 1-Shot Governor and Mafia 1-Shot Disloyal Governor ->

Disloyal makes the Mafia Governor different enough to count.

- Town Governor and Mafia 1-Shot Governor ->

1-Shot makes the Mafia Governor different enough to count, however, I'd ask for an argument why I should accept it.

- Jester and Bulletproof Jester ->

I don't know why you'd waste a pick submitting Jester when you sent Bulletproof Jester, but I'd accept both picks.

Prohibited Submissions:

- Town 1-Shot Governor and Mafia 1-Shot Governor ->

The roles are identical.

- Named VT and Named Mafia Goon ->

If the role is strictly a named role and it gives the role no other abilities, any other roles that do the same thing are considered identical. For example, Chocolate Townie and Chocolate Goon would be considered the same since neither gain any special abilities from the Chocolate part of their name.

[Korina]

You can say what alignment you'd prefer the role to be, and I'll take it into consideration if I choose that for your role. Odds are you'll be given that alignment, unless picking another one would balance the game more.

[Korina]

If you don't submit any picks, you will get a role PM. In fact, I'll openly disclose what the role PM would be:

Spoiler: No-Pick Role PM

Neutral Survivor

Grand Idea UPick

Welcome, [Player Name]! You are a

Neutral Survivor

, and aligned with

yourself

.

Abilities:
~ You have no special abilities apart from your voice and your vote.

Victory Condition:
~ You win if

you are alive at the end of the game.

Please confirm you have read your role-card by

submitting your role-name and alignment.

[Korina]

Actually, I may even give you this role PM:

Spoiler: No-Pick Role PM

Neutral Survivor

Grand Idea UPick

Welcome, [Player Name]! You are a

Post-Restricted Neutral Survivor

, and aligned with

yourself

.

Abilities:
~ You have no special abilities apart from your voice and your vote.

Post Restriction:
~ You may not mention the fact you are a

Neutral Survivor

.
~ You may not claim a role in any method.
~ You may not talk about your post restriction, nor imply you have one.
~

Failure to comply with this post-restriction will result in instant suicide.

Victory Condition:
~ You win if

you are alive at the end of the game.

Please confirm you have read your role-card by

submitting your role-name and alignment.

(Yes, literally mentioning the fact you're survivor, claiming anything or talking about your post restriction means you die.)

[Korina]

If RAS tries to join spectators, I'm making a thread specifically for them with no spoilers.

[Korina]

This isn't directed at anyone in particular, but when you submit picks, please include what post number it is.
It saves both of us time.

[Korina]

I mean, you don't

have

to if you don't want to. I figured I might as well send out invites to people I've played with recently and to the people in games I've recently modded to see if anyone would be interested.

Plus that way, I can make a few jokes in the flavor about it.

[Korina]

I'm scared now.

[Korina]

I saw some themes for a few people's picks, but I feel like I could reasonably predict them, but with you, I have no idea.

[Korina]

Oh god, I’m now really scared.

Edit: Nvm, the picks weren't what I thought they were.

[Korina]

Hey look, everyone who's signed up so far has submitted their picks!

[Korina]

Thread bump

[Korina]

Bump again. Also, if everyone is fine with it, I'm willing to start with less than 21.

[Korina]

I’ll start with 14 if 11 of you guys agree to it.
11/11

If anyone else joins, I’ll count them in and adjust the start early number accordingly.

[Korina]

I'm not sure if I counted someone's vote to start early, so I'm gonna assume I didn't. I'm also gonna start the game with 14 since we basically have enough.
Give me about 48ish hours to create a setup, and possibly get it reviewed by my co-mod.

[Korina]

Actually, serious question, would you guys rather have the setup be balanced or have me just pick whatever causes it to not be balanced?

[Korina]

Yea! I just need picks from you, and if you'd prefer a balanced setup or a not balanced setup!

[Korina]

I’m planning on giving tw 24 more hrs before calling the setup good, and sending out PMs

[Korina]

Thread is up.
I am currently making the role PMs, please see the thread for all future notifications.
