Welcome all, to the Days of Yore series!
You have joined the first ever installment, British Monarchy Mafia!
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!
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. These will be released 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. Standard NAR applies.
3. This is a closed setup, so I reserve the right to refuse answering any of your questions.
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.
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!

All Role PMs have been sent and the game will begin once 10/13 players have confirmed.
Current count:
11/13
11 means were ready to go!
I apologise in advance that I'm not a flavour writer. However, I will try to post cool monarchical facts with VCs whenever I can!
Due to some technical issues with the site, Tea and Biscuits is on V/LA until otherwise noted.
Godspeed to them in resolving these issues! For what is Britain without its Tea and its Biscuits!?
Update:
Crisis averted! Our Tea and Biscuits have arrived safely!
@MOD: V/LA until further notice. I am having issues with the hydra.
Is it ok if I post from this account until I get the issues fixed?
Absolutely!
I normally will not count any votes made out-of-hydra, but I can make an exception since it appears there is an ongoing issue with hydrae at the moment.
Please ensure that you quote all posts made by either head from the proper account at your earliest convenience.

Pine has been prodded a third time. If he does not respond, he will be replaced. If he does, he will be placed on a 24h prod cycle rather than the standard 48 unless specified otherwise, per prod rules in the OP.
Day one ends Wednesday, April 12th at 6pm EST, or in (expired on 2017-04-12 18:00:00)
Mod Notes:
A two day extension has been granted per request and added to the counter. If this still seems insufficient, let me know. A lot can happen in 2 days though!
