Rules

You are fully responsible for understanding and following these rules.

None of these rules supercede or contradict the Forum Rules and Guidelines, all of which are in full force.

---

Conduct

• Don't use
  orange
  , it's my color.
  
  
• Play to win.
  
  
• Don't discuss the game outside of the game until the moderator says it's over.
  
  
• Don't flame. Don't harass. Don't use insults that target minority or disadvantaged classes.
  
  
• Keep interpersonal disputes out of the game thread.
  
  
• Don't quote or misquote private communications from the moderator.
  
  
• Don't use encryption, tiny/hidden/unreadable text, or anything that could be easily confused for such.
  
  
• All replacement requests will be taken as serious, irrevocable, and immediate. Once you request replacement you are no longer a player.
  
  
• Don't game the rules, pretend to break the rules, or intentionally test the limits. All pretended violations will be dealt with identically to actual violations.
  
  
• Don't break the rules of any other ongoing game in this thread.
  
  
• Do not argue moderator actions in the game thread. If you want to dispute a ruling, do so via PM.

---

Voting, abilities, and deadlines

Day

• Days begin with a deadline of (number of living players) IRL days.
  
  
• Days end when one of the following events occurs:
  • The deadline is reached.
    
  • A lynch (or no-lynch) is achieved.
    
  • A town-aligned player is modkilled.
• Votes should be made via the vote tag: "[vote]<playername>[/vote]" or "[v]<playername>[/v]". Full player names or initial segments thereof are preferred.
  
  
• When more than half of living players are voting for the same player, that player will be lynched and the day will end. Votes are irrevocable once a majority is achieved.
  
  
• You may vote not to lynch by voting for "No lynch". When half or more of living players do so, the day will end without a lynch.
  
  
• If the day reaches deadline without a majority, there will be no lynch.
  
  
• I will interpret malformed votes according to my own discretion. In general, if it looks like a vote, I will probably count it as a vote. I reserve the right to edit malformed votes for easier counting.
  
  
• When a majority vote has been achieved but not yet recognized by the moderator, the game is in
  twilight.
  Players, including the lynchee, may continue to post during this period.
  
  
• Under certain rare circumstances I may elect to extend the deadline. I will announce this in thread if it occurs.

Night

• Nights will last
  48 hours
  or until all living players PM me their approval to end the night early.
  
  
• During the night, you should be unable to post in the public game thread. If for some reason you are able, doing so is still against the rules.
  
  
• Mafia kills should be posted in the Mafia PT. Mafia may choose not to kill, either explicitly or by failing to submit a kill.

---

Activity requirements

• Players who do not reply within
  48 hours
  of receiving their role PM will be replaced.
  
  
• Players who do not post for
  48 hours
  in a single game-day will incur a prod.
  
  
• Players who do not post for
  24 hours
  following a prod will be replaced.
  
  
• Players who incur three prods will be replaced.
  
  
• If for any reason you are temporarily unable to meet these requirements, you may declare V/LA status and be excused. V/LA declarations must include a definite end date.

[Umlaut]

Mechanics

This game is 2:11 mountainous.

Each player's role PM has, in addition to their alignment (

Townie

or

Mafioso

), one of the following post restrictions.

• Standard:
  20-16-12-8-4
  
• Verbose:
  25-20-15-10-5

These numbers indicate how many posts the player is allowed to make on Days 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5+.

Naked votes count as posts; however, if you reach your post limit for the day, you may continue to make up to one post per 24 hours consisting solely of a vote or unvote.

Mafia may post freely in their private thread, but only at night.

Players who exceed their post limit once will be warned. Players who exceed their post limit twice will be modkilled.

The Town wins when all the Mafia are dead; the Mafia win when half of living players are Mafia. Any end state where neither condition is met is a mutual loss.

Spoiler: Sample role PM

Welcome to the game. You are a

Standard Townie

.

• On day 1 you are permitted up to 20 posts.
  
• On day 2 you are permitted up to 16 posts.
  
• On day 3 you are permitted up to 12 posts.
  
• On day 4 you are permitted up to 8 posts.
  
• On days 5+ you are permitted up to 4 posts.

You win when all the Mafia are dead.

[Umlaut]

The game will begin once 11/13 players have confirmed.

Currently, 13/13 players have confirmed.

@Mod

Also now I'm curious because I reread the mod's posts. So we're allowed to insult privileged white dudes right? They aren't a minority or disadvantaged. Just curious since rather than "No insults" it's rather specific.

If anyone has a better phrasing suggestion, they can PM me. "Protected class" depends on legal jurisdiction, and I don't want a list of dozens of isms that are specifically disallowed. General-purpose insults (e.g. "dipshit") are not very nice but not actually against the rules, so I can't just say "no insults." In the meantime, the "Don't game the rules" rule remains in effect.

@Umlaut - Can you confirm if Grey replacing out counted towards the post count?

Every post has at least the potential to influence the game, therefore every post counts. I do accept replace-outs by PM.

Bins is V/LA until Monday 7/3.
I will be V/LA from 7/3 - 7/10. Aristophanes will be filling in.

[Umlaut]

My leave of absence is extended to 7/16. Aristophanes will continue to fill in for me. Thanks again, Ari.

[Umlaut]

Rules note: post counts will always include all posts made during the day, regardless of whether they "count" (so naked votes made after the limit is reached will still be tallied). This is so that a player's true post limit cannot be discerned by how their posts are counted. For the same reason, one-over warnings are given privately. Ari and I discussed both these points when he took the reins.

[Umlaut]

I'm officially back! The next couple of days will still be busy for me but I should be able to run the game. Aristo is welcome to continue co-modding as he likes.

Thank you for playing, everyone! The mechanics didn't quite work out as I'd hoped, but you all stuck it out to the end.

Thank you for all your help, Aristophanes! I couldn't have kept the game going without you!
