Follow all Site Rules

Mod colour

– My mod colour is

blue

; don't use it.

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 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 eliminated if you try it.

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.

Use of term "lynch"

- In support of the Black Lives Matter movement and to combat systematic racism, please avoid use of the word lynch when possible.

Tiny text

- The minimum text size permitted is 70.

Questions to mod

- Questions to the mod such as "if I do X will Y happen?" or "does role x produce Y result" will likely result in a non-response.

PT Reveal

- Signing up and playing the game automatically presumes you give permission for any private topics to be revealed at games end.

Provable randomness

- is against the rules. Saying that you rolled a dice is fine, using dice tags or random.org is not.

Claiming scum

- by yourself is fine. Claiming scum with another player is against the rules.

Cryptography

- is forbidden. Breadcrumbing is okay.

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.

Days and Nights

- Days last 10 days or until an elimination occurs. Nights last 3 days. Fast nights may occur if approved by all players via pm.

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.

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: @Mod: I will be v/la until Thursday. 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.

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."

Quoting

- You may not quote (or copy paste) any private information into the thread, including your role PM and any mod communication.

Voting

- Votes must be in bold in the format VOTE: NoPowerOverMe or Vote: NoPowerOverMe. 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 VOTE: NoPowerOverMe/v] to vote and UNVOTE: NoPowerOverMee to unvote.

Elimination

- Days end early when a simple majority of players (50% of living players + 1 rounded down) vote to eliminate somebody. If a majority is not reached at deadline or if a majority of the players vote for no elimination, the day will end without an elimination. At evens, 50% is sufficient for no elimination.

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.

Concessions

- Concessions are not allowed by either side, by any player, for any reason.

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.

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.

No Elimination

- You may vote for No Elimination by posting VOTE: No Elimination.

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.

Day Talk

- Mafia has daytalk.

Play to win

- this particular game, not some future one, and keep it fun![/quote]

Is this approved?

[NoPowerOverMe]

What I'm trying to avoid is a player gaining an advantage by asking theory questions.

[NoPowerOverMe]

ok I will change it to. "Questions to mods may result in a non responce depending on the nature of the question."

[NoPowerOverMe]

Awesome.

[NoPowerOverMe]

Thanks for the support!
