Fredrick A Campbell's Mini Normal Review, June 2020

[Fredrick A Campbell]

Alright then. I will tell you if I find one.

Micc will be my backup moderator.

[northsidegal]

sure, that's fine.

[mastina]

looks like a pass from me

Ditto this; it has my pass too.

[implosion]

And it's headed to signups~

[Fredrick A Campbell]

I'm replacing the word lynch with executed without a fair trial. Is that OK?

[Fredrick A Campbell]

Rules

Completely plagarised from GeorgeBailey except for some modifications

IMPORTANT BIT

1. 14 real life days (168 hours) per in game day, 48 real life hours per in game night
   
2. Majority Executions Without A Fair Trial
   
3. 48 hours before prod, 24 hours before replacement
   
4. Bah posts allowed (limit: 1, free of game related content)
   
5. Attack the play, not the player

1. Mod colour
   – My mod colour is
   FF8000
   . You may use it. I will not edit any player's posts.
   
2. Behaviour
   - 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 hand you over to the authorities (list mods). Asking people to stop voting you or to stop scumhunting you entirely doesn't count for this rule and you may find yourself executed without a fair trial if you try it.
   
3. 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.
   
4. Tiny text
   - may be difficult for players with myopia and hyperopia to read. Please keep its size above 80.
   
5. Provable randomness
   - is against the rules. Saying that you rolled a die or some dice or used random.org is fine, using dice tags or quoting from random.org is not.
   
6. Cryptography
   - is forbidden in any form. Breadcrumbing is okay.
   
7. Confirmation
   - 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.
   
8. Activity
   - You must post at least once every 48 hours in the game thread during the day phase or I will prod you. You then have 24 hours to post in the game thread or I will replace you. 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 the night, you must reply to the night start PM or you will be replaced during the night. If you accumulate 4 prods, you will be force replaced.
   
9. Replacements
   - If you have failed to confirm your role or have not posted within 24 hours after you have been given a prod, I will seek a replacement. If I have not announced the replacement in thread, you may stay. If I have announced the replacement in thread, you may not stay.
   
10. Days
    - The first day begins when the game starts. The other days begin after the night is over. Days last 14 days (168 hours).
    
11. Nights
    - Nights last at least 48 hours. If every player replies to the night start PM with "fast night" or any of its variants, I will end the night phase prematurely. If a player does not send me such a PM, I will not do so.
    
12. Vacation/Limited Access
    If you need to be absent for more than 48 hours, you should declare V/LA in bold in the thread like this: @Mod: I will be v/la until Thursday. While you are V/LA, you be prodded once every 72 hours.
    
13. Quoting
    - You may not quote (or copy paste) any private information into the thread, including your role PM and any mod communication. Paraphrasing the contents of these is fine.
    
14. Voting
    - Votes must be in bold in the format VOTE: Fredrick A Campbell or Vote: Fredrick A Campbell. 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.

    Code: Select all

    To use voting tags, type[vote]Fredrick A Campbell[/vote] to vote and [unvote]Fredrick A Campbell[/unvote] to unvote.

    
    
15. Executions
    - Days end early when a simple majority of players (50% of living players + 1 rounded down) vote to execute somebody without a fair trial. If a majority is not reached at deadline or if a majority of the players vote for no execution without a fair trial (may be shortened to no execution), the day will end without an execution which has no fair trial. At evens, 50% is sufficient for no execution without a fair trial.
    
16. 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.
    
17. Action submissions
    - You may submit actions via PM. As scum, you have the option of sending me a PM or using the PT. 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 night phase is over.
    
18. 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.
    
19. Notes Private Threads
    - 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.
    
20. Play to win
    - this particular game, not some future one, and keep it fun!
