3. Don’t quote private mod communication – this includes, but is not limited to, role PMs, night actions and anything posted in a QuickTopic. You can paraphrase these things, but don’t quote them.
4. Play to your win condition (play to win.)
5. If someone is modkilled, their alignment may be changed to “neutral survivor” and there will be no chance of them winning the game, even if their original faction wins.
6. I reserve the right to change the rules at any time, including while the game is ongoing, although there will be a warning in-thread if this happens.
7. Personal remarks and insults are not welcome. There is no problem with criticizing how others play in this game, but as soon as it goes beyond that line there will be one warning before I force-replace you.
8. Do not try to "break the game." This includes the use of ciphered/encrypted text.
Activity rules
1. If a player does not post in the game thread for more than 48 hours, they will be prodded. After this prod, they are given a 24-hour grace period to make a post before I start searching for their replacement.
2. If a player receives three or more prods, I reserve the right to search for their replacement at my discretion.
3. Please post V/LA (Vacation/Limited Access) notices in-thread at least 24 hours in advance of them starting.
4. Game days will be at most 2 weeks long, unless a replacement is required within the last 48 hours of a game day.
5. Game nights will last 48 hours.
Voting rules
1. When making votes, use the vote or bold tags. Votes not made using either of these will not be recorded.
2. When voting, please put your vote at the beginning of a new line. While there is no penalty for not doing so, you put yourself at peril of the mod missing your vote when you don’t.
3. Unvoting before voting again is not mandatory.
4. If one player receives a simple majority of the votes, they are that day’s lynch and any further voting/unvoting won’t count.
5. After a lynch has been made, all players including the one who was lynched may continue to post until I lock the thread. This is the “twilight” phase.
6. If a majority of votes is not reached by deadline, there will be no lynch for that day.
7. Anybody can vote not to lynch by saying VOTE: No Lynch.
8. Dead players can make one “bah” post after their death. This may not contain any information relevant to the game. Once the mod has declared the game over, anybody can start posting in the thread again.
Setup
-All Newbie games use the
Natural Action Resolution system for determining Night action effects. Roleblocker actions will take precedence over Jailkeeper actions should that apply.
-This is game follows the
Matrix6 Newbie Setup. That means the setup is based on either one row or one column within this matrix:
| A | B | C |
1 | Town Jailkeeper | Vanilla Townie | Mafia Goon |
2 | Mafia Roleblocker | Town Cop | Town Doctor |
3 | Town 1-shot
Bulletproof | Mafia Goon | Town Tracker |
After determining the row or column, the remaining six roles will be filled in by mafia goons and vanilla townies appropriately, to create a 2-mafia and 7-town setup. For example Row 1 (1 jailkeeper, 1 vanilla townie, 1 mafia goon) would add an additional 5 vanilla townies and 1 mafia goon, for a total setup of 1 jailkeeper, 6 vanilla townies, and 2 mafia goons.
