This is a normal game. For more information go here https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Normal_Game
It was reviewed for normalcy and balance by schadd and mastina
The following information is public knowledge: no private threads have daytalk.


Inspired by Equinox's, Glork's and Ether's rulesets.

important bit

• Day 1: up to 10 days, Day 2+ up to 7 days, Night: 48 hours.
  
• Majority eliminations
  
• 36 hours before prod, 24 hours before replacement, 24 hour weekends
  
• Bah posts allowed (limit: 1, free of game related content)
  
• I have some unusual rules about animated GIFs, tiny text, and prodging. Scroll down for details.
  
• Don’t be a dick

1. Follow all site rules.
   
   
2. Mod colour
   – My mod colour is
   olive
   ; don't use it.
   
3. Behaviour
   - Don’t be a dick. 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 tell you to stop. If you still do not stop, you will be force-replaced. Asking people to stop voting you or to stop scumhunting you entirely doesn't count for this rule and you may find yourself eliminateded if you try it.
   
4. 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.
   
5. Animated GIFs
   - are of the devil, but they are permitted behind spoilers if clearly labelled as such.
   
6. Tiny text
   - is also of the devil, keep it 70+ please.
   
7. Provable randomness
   - is against the rules. Saying that you rolled a dice is fine, using dice tags or random.org is not.
   
8. Claiming scum
   - by yourself is fine. Claiming scum with another player is against the rules.
   
9. Cryptography
   - is forbidden. Breadcrumbing is okay.
   
10. Confirmation
    - You have about 72 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.
    
11. Days
    - Day 1 lasts 10 days and other days last 7 days. Extensions may be granted if there are replacements, or if the majority of players make it clear to me that an extension is desired.
    
12. Activity
    - You must post at least once every 36 hours or I will Prod you. You then have 24 hours to post in the game thread or I will replace you. If you come back before I find a replacement, you can stay. The activity timers run at half-speed on weekends. 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 night, you must reply to the night start PM or you will be replaced during the night.
    
13. Vacation/Limited Access
    If you need to be absent for longer than this, you should declare
    V/LA
    in bold in the thread like this: [
    b]

    @Mod: I will be v/la until Thursday

    [
    /b]. While you are V/LA, you will be nudged once every 54 hours. Two nudges equals one prod. If you have not posted game advancing content in 5 days, regardless of V/LA status, you will be replaced.
    
14. Prodging
    - A naked "prod dodge" does not reset the prod timer. To avoid being prodded/replaced for inactivity, include some game advancing content in your prodges, such as "got prodded; xxxx is still scum."
    
15. Quoting
    - You may not quote (or copy paste) any private information into the thread, including your role PM and any mod communication.
    
16. Voting
    - Votes must be in bold in the format VOTE: Plotinus or
    Vote: Plotinus
    . 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. Type [
    v]Plotinus[
    /v] to vote and [
    uv]Plotinus[
    /uv] to unvote.
    
17. eliming
    - Days end early when a simple majority of players (50% of living players + 1 rounded down) vote to elmininate somebody. If a majority is not reached at deadline or if a majority of the players vote for no lelimin the day will end without a elim. At evens, 50% is sufficient for no elim.
    
18. 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.
    
19. Night
    - Night lasts at least 48 hours. The night phase can be shortened if every living player -- even those with no night actions -- agrees to it and if I'm not busy.
    
20. Action submissions
    - You may submit actions via PM (if town) or PT (if scum). 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 deadline.
    
21. 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.
    
22. Notes PT
    - 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.
    
23. Play to win
    - this particular game, not some future one, and keep it fun!

[bugspray]

Am I still free to talk about donkey kong: return of the kong in my everyday life? I really want this clarified and would rather not break any rules.

@mod bugspray ?

you are allowed to talk about donkey kong: return of the kong in your every day life but only because of the completely voluntary sacrifice that Danica is making for this game

[bugspray]

HoldenGolden has been prodded

[bugspray]

I have asked the mod to fix this problem and hopefully I will be able to visit you tonight and keep you safe from all harm.

The only player who recieved an incorrect role PM is Danica. You should all be thankful for the voluntary sacrifice she has made for this game.

[bugspray]

Pooky, is that question directed at me?

[bugspray]

.

[bugspray]

In general yes, although if the game has a dead Encryptor Enabler then the Encryptor role ceases to function so in this game the answer would be no.

[bugspray]

That's a hammer!
Tay was an Encryptor Goon and town wins.

Not authorized.

How’d the goal of day play versus night play go in your opinion?
We’re you satisfied with how this game went down?

i didnt reach much of it but i think the use of masons meant that scum didnt have as many choices for NK.
i think masons add hugs plist RNG to micros because scum cant take the nks they actually would want due to mech and i will probably use fewer of them

[bugspray]

it passed nrg

[bugspray]

8 masons and one of them was a goon!

[bugspray]

in future bugspray setups hectic will start the game as a dead treestump

[bugspray]

any extra suggestin

[bugspray]

i meant for hectic nerfs
