Do not try to hide information within your posts by using encryption, invisible/white text or similar means. If you are unsure whether what you're trying to do is allowed or not, please PM me.
If you're dead (which is the case in the precise moment I announce your death), refrain from posting at all.
All Mod communication should go through PMs, please do not request me to do things in thread. You may never quote anything you received as PM from me.
I am not a lawyer, so if you think the rules have holes, please let me know. If you exploit such a hole, expect to be mod-killed.
Voting
A proper vote must be bolded, include the word "vote" and something that I can trace back to one of the players. This may be the whole name or an abbreviation. Please make sure that I understand whom you mean to vote for. Otherwise, your vote won't count.
Unvotes are not necessary, but I'm sure the other players would appreciate them.
If you want to unvote without voting someone else, use a bolded "unvote".
Deadlines
All game days will be deadlined to three weeks.
I may add up to one week to the deadline, if I feel amount and timing of replacements make it necessary.
I may substract up to one week from the deadline, if I feel the overall activity level is lacking.
I will, however, try to avoid either.
At deadline a majority of votes
cast
is needed to lynch.
Nights will be deadlined to three days. I might prolong the deadline another two days if replacements make it necessary. Otherwise, unsubmitted night choices will be randomized.
Participation
I expect each of you to post at least once every three days.
I will prod you if you don't. This will be announced in thread by me and you will have to answer the prod by posting in thread.
If prods are not answered or if I have to prod you repeatedly, I will replace you.
Information
I will try to post a vote count near the top of every page or every 24 hours (if you produce more than one page per day).
Additionally the first post will always contain the most current vote count and all other information you need.
In every vote count, the bolded person is the person that would be lynched at deadline (if any, see deadline rule above)
, and you can protect people from harm. Each Night, you may send me a choice via PM of who to protect; if they come under attack by the Mafia, they will live. You win if the scum are eliminated, so choose wisely at Night, and try to lynch correctly during the Day.
Note: Doctors are 100% effective in Newbie Games (the person they protect will never die on the night they are protected). You may not protect yourself.
, and you can tell good from bad. Each Night, you may send a player's name to me; I will let you know if your investigation shows that they are Mafia or Town. You win if the scum are eliminated, so choose wisely at Night, and lynch well during the Day.
Note: Cops always get a correct result in Newbie Games (no sanity issues). You cannot investigate yourself.
, and you've got no special powers at Night. No investigations, no protection, no gun to shoot people. Your only powers are the ability to post, vote, and think. Help lynch Mafia during the Day, and you will win the game, along with the rest of the Town.
If the Mafia team consists of a Roleblocker and a Goon:
, along with your partner _________ (who is simply a Goon). Your goal is to eliminate the pro-town players so that only your side remains; you win if this happens. During the Day, try to blend in with the rest of the players, and get someone lynched.
You may talk with your partner at Night, and send me a choice via PM of who you would like to kill/roleblock (your team can do both if both of you live; if only you survive, you must choose one action or the other).
Note: You may talk with your partner privately during confirmations to plan strategy, but no night actions will take place until Night One.
, along with your partner _________ (who is a pro-Mafia Roleblocker). Your goal is to eliminate the pro-town players so that only your side remains; you win if this happens. During the Day, try to blend in with the rest of the players, and get someone lynched.
You may talk with your partner at Night, and send me a choice via PM of who you would like to kill (if your partner also lives, they can send in a separate choice to roleblock someone).
Note: You may talk with your partner privately during confirmations to plan strategy, but no night actions will take place until Night One.
, along with your partner _________ (who is also a Goon). Your goal is to eliminate the pro-town players so that only your side remains; you win if this happens. During the Day, try to blend in with the rest of the players, and get someone lynched.
You may talk with your partner at Night, and send me a choice via PM of who you would like to kill (only one of you can do so).
Note: You may talk with your partner privately during confirmations to plan strategy, but no night actions will take place until Night One.
Columbo has not picked up his role.
Replacement will arrive shortly, in the mean time, I declare the day open.
Deadline: Friday, July 31st, 18:00 CEST (GMT+2)
Picked up BigBear from the Queue.
Sorry if it wasn't clear enough. July 31st is indeed the deadline, as all newbie games are required to have three week deadlines.
Ahh my bad, sorry for the misconception and thanks for the clarification... I'm quite surprised by Pancho's jumpiness though... Not to mention that Santos didn't even place a vote on Pancho, nor an official FOS.
Question, Pancho are you still random voting with your vote on Santos?
