THIS IS A LOT OF AREA TAGS, THIS SECTION IS PROBABLY IMPORTANT

GENERAL:

- Please adhere to the site rules. Also check out these clarifications. Site rules supersede my own.
- The word "lynch" shall not be used.
- Play to win (but also play to have fun, too).
- Do not discuss this game of mafia outside of this thread or any private topics that I have created.
- Do not engage in trust tells or other out-of-game influences (such as bets, public musings on potentially replacing out, public accusations of rule violations, etc).
- Do not take any action that attempts to prove the existence of private game communications. This includes sharing links, post numbers, or screenshots of private threads, directly quoting instead of paraphrasing, sharing images, or discussing formatting/styling. You are allowed to claim that these communications exist, and you are allowed to paraphrase, as long as you do not attempt to provide evidence.
- If you have any questions about your role, or the game, feel free to privately message me. If I'm asked a question publicly, I will try to answer it as accurately as I can without divulging secret setup information.
- Dead players may not post. This includes "bah" posts and the twilight phase before post-game.
- Pretending to break a rule will be treated as if the rule was broken.

VOTING / PLAYER ACTIONS:

- Vote either with vote tags (VOTE: sloththeholy) or with bold (

vote: chibi

). Note that nicknames, abbreviations and acronyms are acceptable, as long as the intended vote is obvious. I will state if a vote isn't obvious.
- I will not count any votes that don't have a colon (use

vote: sloth

, not

vote chibi

).
- Don't try to confuse me with your votes.
- An execution will occur once a majority decision is reached. If no majority is reached before the deadline, the game will proceed to the night phase with no deaths.
- Following an execution, it is twilight. Everyone alive, including the player executed, may continue to post until I lock the thread.
- After the twilight phase, I will reveal the role and alignment of the executed player.

DEADLINES / ACTIVITY:

- Days will last seven "real life" days. Nights will last up to 48 hours unless everyone living player requests fast night in which case I’ll speed it along.
- During the day, you are expected to post at least once every 48 hours. If you haven't posted for 48 hours, I shall prod you. If you do not respond to the prod within 24 hours (either in thread if possible, or via private message if the thread is locked) then I will replace you (with an occasional potential for some leeway).
- As well, if you require more than three prods (ie: four prods), you might be replaced.
- Declaring V/LA (vacation / limited access) in this thread will pause your prod timer (for up to a "reasonable amount of time").
- If you decide to replace out, please PM me and don't post in thread after doing so; if you want to rescind the replacement please PM me again and don't post in thread until you hear back.
- It is against site rules to suggest you may replace out. It is against site rules to tell another player to replace out.

MISCELLANEOUS:

- No impossible/hard to read text, or cryptography. For example, I would prefer that no font size smaller than the one you're reading now be used.
-My mod colour this game is

#FFCC33

and chibiyalis mod colour is

BLOOD RED

, we don't care if you use it long as you aren't trying to impersonate us.
- Don't attempt to prove the randomization of an in-game action. you can claim you randomized an action, just don't try to prove it.
- Don't edit or delete posts if you have the ability to do so.
- Clearly label any posts generated by machine learning as such, and don't use machine learning to play the game for you.
- The mod may make mistakes; please point out any mistakes gently. Mistakes will be corrected where possible, but sometimes mistakes are made that cannot be reversed. These will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
- If you need to get the mod's attention, either PM me, or bold the text you wish to draw to my attention (something like "

@mod

" or will probably work; also quoting me gives me a lil notification fyi).
- I reserve the right to alter/remove/add any rules as I see fit. You will, of course, be notified if that happens, however.
- If you would like a notes PT, you may request one. You can state that you have a notes PT, but you may not attempt to use it to prove you are working from a town mindset (real or fabricated).
- All private topics shared by two or more players will be released unredacted after the game ends. If you have a notes PT, it is up to you if you would like me to release it post game.

REMINDERS FOR YOU!

- This is Probably Unbalanced Rolemadness Bastard: BACK TO THE PURBTURE: 90S EDITION! also known as PURB! Everybody will have a non Vanilla Role and the game is definitely very bastard! If you need a refresher on what that means here’s the wiki article on that Bastard, but basically, anything after this post, including things in Private Messages or Private Topics, could be a lie. There is no guarantee of truthfullness from me or chibiyali.
- Being a bastard game the presence of alignment or role changing abilities is possible but not guaranteed. As is the presence of things such as redirection, multiball, modsanctioned out of game influence, nonrandomized role and/or alignment distribution, and/or direct moderator influence.
- This game has daystart
- Every private topic has daytalk enabled.
- Kills are indistinguishable - I will not use varying flavor for night kills.

By your powers combined, I am Captain Pl- I mean Chibi, your resident co-mod!

[sloththeholy]

Seeking replacement for the Black slot

notyourheroine replaces the Black slot! Thanks!

[sloththeholy]

ALL ROLE PMS HAVE BEEN SENT OUT! THE GAME WILL BEGIN WHEN 13/15 PLAYERS HAVE CONFIRMED OR AFTER 24 HOURS HAVE PASSED WHICHEVER COMES FIRST!

COUNTDOWN: (expired on 2025-11-15 16:06:56)

CURRENT CONFIRMATIONS: 13/13!

Game beginning very shortly!

[sloththeholy]

(The sound of a roaring engine. A flash of light. The unmistakable “whoosh” of time travel. A DeLorean screeches to a halt in the middle of a foggy street. The doors swing open.)

SLOTH:

[frantically checking a blinking dashboard]

Great Scott! Chibi! The flux capacitor’s fried! And… and the temporal coordinates are all over the place!

CHIBI:

[peeking out the window]

Uncle Sloth, are you sure we didn’t overshoot 1985 again? ’Cause I swear I just saw a guy in a neon tracksuit doing the Macarena.

SLOTH:

That’s impossible! Unless…

[squints at a billboard]

Oh no. Oh no no no. It says “Blockbuster Grand Opening.” Chibi, we’ve landed in the 1990s!

CHIBI:

Wait, the 90s? You mean... dial-up internet, Tamagotchis, and questionable boy band haircuts?!

SLOTH

: Exactly! And look! the people!

[gestures dramatically]

CHIBI:

Whoa, that’s not just any crowd, Uncle Sloth. Those are… the players!

SLOTH:

You’re right! We must’ve picked up an entire timeline of confused citizens. And if my calculations are correct (which they always are), this isn’t just the 90s. This is a Scum-infested 90s!

CHIBI:

Scum? Like… hidden murderers in tracksuits?

SLOTH:

Precisely. They’ve infiltrated the suburbs, the malls, even the Saturday morning cartoons! Trust no one, Chibi. Anyone could be the bad guy. Even someone who swears they only listen to Britney Spears unironically.

CHIBI:

Great. So what do we do, uncle Sloth?

SLOTH:

Simple. We blend in. Act natural. Maybe grab a Pepsi Crystal and a pizza pocket. Then we let the players do the rest.

CHIBI:

The rest being… accuse each other of being murderers while pretending to be totally chill?

SLOTH:

That’s the spirit! Oh, and if anyone starts humming “Wannabe” by the Spice Girls, it’s statistically likely they’re innocent. Science can’t explain it, but it checks out.

CHIBI:

So, lemme get this straight. Everyone here’s been thrown into a 90s time warp, nobody knows who’s good or evil, and we’re supposed to just… start?

SLOTH:

Exactly. The decade of dial-up has begun. Players, welcome to

Back to the PURBture: 90s edition!

(Lights flicker. The DeLorean’s engine sputters, and Sloth smacks the dashboard.)

CHIBI:

Uh, Uncle Sloth? What happens if the flux capacitor doesn’t get fixed?

SLOTH:

Then, my dear Chibi… we’re stuck here. Forever.

(Both look at each other.)

CHIBI:

…At least we’ll have Nintendo 64.

SLOTH:

And Blockbuster late fees!

CHIBI:

But what will happen when mom finds out?

SLOTH:

Trust me, she won't....

DAY ONE OFFICIALLY BEGINS!
