The Rules
General
1.The site-wide rules apply.- Mafia Specific Rules < these rules < game-specific rules < General Site Guidelines < General Site Rules.

- A player being exileddoes not automatically end the day.
- When a player is exiled, their role and alignment are revealed.
4. If you notice that I may have made a mistake or forgotten something, tell me.- This includes vote counts and prods.
- This also includes if a player breaks a bolded rule and I miss it.
- Remember that there are some things that you cannot post in the game thread (or do not want to). In this case, PM me.
- I might ignore anything not bolded.
- If this happens, I will let everyone know.
Votes
7. Votes and unvotes must be in bold.- Votes must be unambiguous with respect to player nicknames and abbreviations.
- You are encouraged to use the VOTE: and UNVOTE: tags, respectively.
- The majority for a no lynch consists of the same number of votes as the majority for a lynch.
10. Unvotes will not prevent a lynch after the required number of votes has been reached.- This includes unvotes in the same post as the lynching vote.
Deadlines
11. Days have deadlines of 7 days.- Day 1 has a deadline of 14 days.
13. Any actions not submitted in time will be forfeited, except if the action's description states otherwise.- It is, for example, possible that a not submitted night action targets a player randomly.
Post Restrictions
14. The "don't talk when you're dead" rule from the Mafia Specific Rules applies from the moment you are hammered.- There is a Preview feature that shows the latest posts. No excuses.

Alright everybody, I'd like to bring something to everyone's attention just in case somebody didn't read the rules particularly thoroughly.
Days are shorter in this game than the standard game. With replacements we might be getting a few more hours, but don't count on being able to get more than 8 or 9 days to come to a lynch. I always do better with more time and more content to read, so I'll do my best to keep up here and I won't join any further games until I'm dead in here.rule 11 wrote: 11. Days have deadlines of 7 days.
* Day 1 has a deadline of 14 days.
That being said, I'm going to expect each and every one of you to have substantial amounts of content on a regular basis.
I was going to point out the lack of no-lynch rule, but that was changed. Likewise, the mod changed his (previously horribly broken) exile policy. Many thanks for improving those rules.
Now on to my normal intro. I'd like to get a bit of information about everyone for my personal reference.
1) What is your timezone? This is helpful to know when we're waiting for a player to post, just in case they live overseas. This is particularly important as every hour is going to count in a 1 week deadline.
2) What is your mafia experience here and elsewhere? It is good to know who are first timers and who are veterans. Join date doesn't tell the whole story with alts and hiatuses.
3) How frequently can we be expecting you to post? Keep in mind the shorter deadlines.
1) I live in PDT, which is something like GMT -8.
2) I have an increasing number of on-site games (not quite 20) and have played (mostly modded) a good handful of party style mafia.
3) I will keep up my usual high frequency of large posts. If you have problems with walls of text, you should speak up now.Town: 14 wins, 14 losses
Scum: 3 wins, 2 losses-

I also find it interesting that we had a night 0. I thought that was just for the purpose of giving scum time to quicktopic, but apparently they got a kill. That must be frustrating for Klazam, who never even got a chance to play. Looks like we're facing a single scum family with no SK, most likely.
My cases and responses to cases are what end up being particularly large and quote heavy. Those are probably what you should avoid skimming anyway.Death wrote: I don't really mind large posts, but if everything you post is a wall of text, I reserve the right to skim.Town: 14 wins, 14 losses

I suppose we shouldn't be discussing theory, but if we are, now is the time to do so.
An occasional wall is nice if you have a lot to say. Posting a lot of walls is anti-town. Points tend to be lost in large posts and, if you post more than a couple of them, people no longer care to read them. Sure, you can blame it on the people who don't read your walls, but if you know they won't read them anyway, posting them constantly just means you're drowning the town in information and text that doesn't do much.
Basically, if you can make the same point in less words, it is pro-town to do so.-

1) I'm also on pacific time.
2) I've played quite a bit on site, but its been a very long time, so I'm probably rusty.
3) I'll post as often as possible. It should be at least every day, but its hard to say more. Depending on work, I might be on most of the day, or only during the evenings. Either way, I'll try to keep up a fast post rate.
As for the night 0 issue, I personally prefer it. Sure, it sucks for whoever gets killed, but it actually gives the town some information to work with. Admittedly, very minor information, but information nonetheless. Otherwise, the lynch on day 1 is basically completely random, based on whoever says the first wrong thing. The more information is available to the town, the harder it is for the mafia to manipulate us. But all that's my personal opinion. I like playing on day 1 a lot better when we've had a night 0.-

Hi Romanus
I'm well aware that my position on walls is unpopular and probably misguided. But the subject came up, and I like to preach the word of the wall gods.
Maybe it's just that I have the time to read walls and sift through them, and because I'm prone to verbosity myself. *shrug*"Cry havoc, and let slip the wombat of war!"

1.) EST here, but I'm on at odd hours
2.) This is my second game on here, the other is ongoing, but I've played pretty extensively elsewhere. I'm a pretty decent townie, I love posting huge wall posts where I cover a person post by post, although I tend to do that more in the late game then early on in the game.
3.) I'll post whenever school lets me, which should be every day, assuming there is something to post about, I find that posts that merely say "I agree" are scummy as hell, so if thats all I have to say I'll keep quiet. I'm more used to 48 hour days so having a whole week feels like a huge luxury of time to me
To be blunt, I hate the night zero, I find it really unfair to the poor townie that didn't even get to post at all. As far as text wall go, I like them, I tend to write pretty verbose posts with lots and lots of quotes being analyzed (yes post by post analysis is my favorite scum-hunting technique). Also fair warning I tend to kind of tunnel to see what reactions I get, so expect me to start calling someone out as scum day 2, either because I believe they are scum or because I'm fishing to see how they react to pressure.
Also I assume we are still in the random voting phase? If so VOTE: Erratus Apathos
Oh a last thing, I'm new here so I dont know the meta, I would really appreciate it if you guys would point out the salient points of your play, thanks ^_^-

Forgot the questions from ICEninja.
1) EDT. GMT-4
2) I'm currently in six games on MafiaScum.net, two more on Myth-Weavers.com. And if you think 7 days with a 14 day D1 is bad, one of the games on MW is 96 hour days, and the other is 84 hour days. It's intense, and a lot closer to live Mafia. Also, the post rate is a hell of a lot faster than on MS. As for experience, I have a couple of completed games on MW, a couple of my MS games are several days in, and I have a good quantity of live Mafia experience, though I've found thatmaybe50% of the skills from live games translate to here.
3) I post a lot. College students have a lot of flexible time on their hands."Cry havoc, and let slip the wombat of war!"

(Night 0 in a 13 player game is kind of counterproductive, considering the switch to 13 players was to give town an extra mislynch that we now don't get.)
Why did you choose someone that didn't post yet?AMP wrote:Also I assume we are still in the random voting phase? If so VOTE: Erratus Apathos
Also, stop answering the questions from ICEninja. They're useless and distracting. For question 1, it doesn't matter when people post as long as they do post. For question 2, you can get a good enough indication of how many games someone's played by their profile, join date, and, if it actually helps to know as part of reading someone (which occurs with maybe one player per game), you ask about prior experience. As for how frequently someone posts, we'll find that out anyway as people start posting.
Having players answer the questions and being like "z-o-m-g i, like, totally played this many games here and that many games there and am playing this many games now here and that many there and I liked to play like this sometimes and like that other times and etc etc" is creating a poor atmosphere for scumhunting and not giving us useful information.-

Aw, you forgot about us playing a 'Road to Rome' game wayyy back in the day(like a year ago) in which we tunneled each other? Don't ask the game number because I forgot, and I don't want to go sifting through the archives.
------
Despite the two that are protesting ICEninja's questions, I'm choosing to answer them.
1) I live in central time zone.
2) This might be my 4th game on MS, but I took a long hiatus. It's now been over a year since my last game on this website.
3) I will be posting as I have time. I'll try to post at least once every day, but there are times when homework comes up, and I don't have time to analyze every post as I'd want.
------
For future reference, I'm noting AMP's late RVS vote because already 25 posts and on the first page, Iceninja's questions seem to have killed RVS. I'm not pointing fingers here yet, but it looks out of place. However, I do understand the temptation for a random vote, but I feel the RVS has been born and has died here on the first page.Last edited by Fenhl on Fri Mar 25, 2011 10:15 am, edited 1 time in total.
