The following post contains the rule set for this game. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns (or just want to say hello), please hit me up with a PM! Also, see the Desperation Day Wiki page for the setup.
I always recommend reading the setup first. Otherwise you might miss something important like
If A Mafia Goon Is Lynched D3, Town Wins Automatically!
And we wouldn't want you to miss something integral like that.
I will also be using an Achievement Based system in which you can unlock things (like in *insert console here*). I got these from Sméagol, and will be keeping track of them in my Mod PT. Some of these will be released at Day's end, some at Game's end. This will make more sense once they get going.

Finally, Thanks For Playing! =D
^ This should apply so long as I remember to do so. I've slacked on keeping track in past games.
Rules
General Gameplay and Etiquette:
Spoiler:
1. Read these rules. By asking any questions that can be answered by reading these rules, I reserve the right to point and laugh while answering.
2. Play to win and have fun! I don't know why these are always mutually exclusive in rule setups. Just enjoy and don't be a jerk! Good luck!
3. You may not quote private information (either real or fabricated) of any kind. This includes information discussed in any private chats, neighbourhoods, PMs, etc. Paraphrasing (for role claims, etc.) is acceptable. If you are unsure, ask first.
4. There is to be no personal communication outside of the forum postings unless your role PM specifically allows it.
5. If you have a role with a Night action, your choices are due to me by the posted deadline. If I do not receive your choice via PM or via Post in your PT by the posted deadline you will forfeit your actions. A simple “No Action” PM or post makes it so I'm not worried you forgot to send me something.
6. As a general rule you should aim to post a every 24 hours, minimum, to keep the game moving. I know some of you like to lurk, but don't make a habit of it please. I will prod players after 48 hours of inactivity. If you do not respond to a prod after 24 hours, I will start searching for a replacement. If you are prodded 3 times within the game, I will prod you after each 24 hours of inactivity, with no grace periods, and replace as necessary.
7. No invisible, impossibly small, or encrypted text. I feel this is a given though.
8. Don't edit or delete posts, whether you can or not.
1. This game will have public voting with 14 day deadlines until the start of day 3. From then there will be 10 day deadlines. If a majority is reached early, the hammer will fall and that person will be lynched. If no lynch is secured by deadline, a No Lynch will occur.
2. Night phases will last 48 hours throughout the game. All actions must be submitted to myself (Aristophanes) by this time.
3. Please submit votes as: VOTE: PlayerName or
Vote: PlayerName
in the thread. Votes will NOT be counted if they are not Bolded or Vote Tagged! Obvious abbreviations or nicknames will be counted so long as they are unambiguous. They will also not count if they are spoilered. A spoilered vote is a joke vote in the eyes of this Mod.
4. Please submit vote revocations as
Unvote: PlayerName
or UNVOTE: . Unvotes are not necessary before changing votes.
5. You may vote for a "No Lynch" if you would like. Unlike for a regular hammer, it takes half of the players' votes in order to succeed.
6. Once majority is reached, the game enters twilight until I post a death scene or lock the thread (obviously); all players including the one who was lynched may continue to post during twilight.
7. You may post one "Bah" post after death so long as it contains no game relevant information.
Mechanics/Miscellaneous:
Spoiler:
1. This game will begin with Day 1.
2. As there are no night actions, NAR does not apply.
3. This is an open setup. All information on the roles in the game will be posted in the following post. Good luck fakeclaiming, chumps!
4. The moderator will never lie to you. All information you are disclosed is true. However, this post plus your role PM is all I will tell you, not counting clarification per request. As the setup is semi-open, I feel no need to really say much else.
5. Cheating may ban you from future Mafia rounds. Don’t do it.
6. If you are going V/LA or suspect you will be unable to post, please let me know, either inthread by
Bolding it
or via PM. Both I and your fellow scummers will appreciate this courtesy.
7. If I missed any important rules, please let me know!
8. Oh, and don't forget about D3! If a Mafia Goon is lynched, town Auto-win. If not, the game continues as normal with standard win conditions.

@mod VLA until Tuesday but I'll probably be able to post here and there. More LA than V. Posted to all games
