General Site Rules:
  • Follow all site rules. Play to your wincon but above all play to have fun. Do not ruin the game for others.
  • If you have something that you need to communicate with me
    bold
    your text or I cannot guarantee I will see it.
  • As the MOD I reserve the right to modkill or force-replace players as I see fit.
  • If you feel I have erred send me a PM and let me know.
  • That said, do not bring disagreements with me into the thread. That is what the PM is for. The same goes for disagreements with other players.
  • Do not use invisible or in some way encrypted fonts or typing.
  • Do not quote communications with the moderator (in particular, your role PM). Quoting the timestamp of your role PM counts as quoting your role PM. Paraphrasing communications, however, is usually ok.
General game rules:
  • I will use the colour
    #FFAA00
    . This is my color and only my color. Don't use it.
  • A lynch is reached when a majority of all players (half rounded down plus one) are voting for the same target.
  • If a majority is not reached by the deadline, a No Lynch will occur.
  • You may vote No Lynch in the same way that you vote for a lynch. Once a majority has voted for a no lynch the day immediately ends.
  • Abuse of an infinite no-lynch/no-kill loop will not be tolerated. Do not even contemplate it.
  • Votes must be written in
    bold
    as
    Vote: Player
    or use the VOTE: Player tag. Votes that are not tagged will not be counted.
  • Votes in quotes, spoiler tags or otherwise hidden will also not be counted.
  • Votes that misspell or have other minor errors will be counted as normal as long as I understand what you are getting at.
  • Unvotes are helpful, but not necessary. Let me know if I make an error in vote counts and I will correct them.
  • I will try and do vote counts often but if you want one just let me know. In general, I will be mainly available evenings (5 PM - 12 PM Pacific) and weekends, so you may not get a quick VC if it's in the middle of the day.
  • As the MOD I will keep communication down to the absolute minimum possible (aside from vote counts and the like). I do not want to influence the game itself – that is for the players to do.
  • Flips will have full role revealed (I will essentially post the PM you received on your flip with the obvious required reductions)
Game Flow:
  • The Game will begin and the thread will be unlocked after 7 players confirm via PM, or 48 hours after role PMs are sent, whichever is faster. I will not, however, unlock the game thread before 24 hours have passed.
  • I will auto-replace any player who has not picked up their role PMs within 72 hours after I send out role PMs.
  • If you have not posted for 48 hours you will receive a prod. If you do not post within 24 hours of a prod you will be replaced. A naked "prod dodge" does not reset the prod timer. To avoid being prodded/replaced for inactivity, include some game advancing content in your prodges, such as "got prodded; xxxx is still scum."
  • Please announce if you are going on V/LA. I prefer this announced in thread unless there is a specific reason not to. If you are on V/LA, you are still expected to post in thread at least every 96 hours. If this is an issue for you, please discuss it with me PRIVATELY via PM.
  • Three prods may result in being replaced.
  • Day phases will last a maximum of 14 days.
  • Each Night Phase will last 48 hours.
  • Mafia may only chat during pregame and during night phases; during day phases, when the main game thread is unlocked, mafia may not talk to each other.
  • You may communicate as normal during the twilight phase until I close the thread but votes/un-votes will not count.
  • Extensions may be granted for replacements or extenuating circumstances.
  • A missed Night Action will result in a No Action.
  • The game will end when all threats to town have been eliminated or that is not possible.
  • If you must replace out, PM me privately and stop posting in thread.
  • If a player replaces out while having a vote active, that vote will remain active until such time as the replacement chooses to unvote or vote elsewhere. The sole exception is when a player replaces out while self-voting. In that case, the act of replacing in is considered an automatic unvote.

important setup information
Newbie Setup

Matrix6 (as designed by Cogito Ergo Sum):

ABC
1
Town Jailkeeper
Vanilla Townie
Mafia Goon
2
Mafia Roleblocker
Town Cop
Town Doctor
3
Town 1-shot
Bulletproof
Mafia Goon
Town Tracker

Each Newbie Game will be given a setup that incorporates either one row or one 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.

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. The
1-shot Bulletproof
is a passive ability that cannot be
roleblocked
.


basic game and site functionality
  1. Using the "code" tag will let you show something in code to demonstrate, see below
  2. Voting is done by using the vote tags:

    Code: Select all

    [vote]mhsmith0[/vote]
    gets you VOTE: mhsmith0
  3. Unvoting is done by using the unvote tags:

    Code: Select all

    [unvote]mhsmith0[/unvote]
    gets you UNVOTE: mhsmith0, or you can simply vote someone else
  4. As a reminder, Discussion of Ongoing Mafia Games is Not Allowed. This includes discussion ongoing games here or this game elsewhere.
  5. It is not an official rule, but as a courtesy, please do not use the spoiler tags, but instead the spoiler=tag. This is because phones cannot read spoiler tag.

    Code: Select all

    [spoiler=]blah blah blah[/spoiler]
    .
    Spoiler:
    blah blah blah
    can be read on any device.
    blah blah blah
    can only be read on a computer.
  6. It is generally recommended to choose an avatar. This is a courtesy to fellow players, so that they can more easily differentiate you from other players when reading the thread. You can do this by going to User Control Panel, then Profile, then "Edit Avatar", and you can upload a picture or gif that will go along with your user name when you post.
  7. If you have any questions about basic rules, or the newbie setup, feel free to ask them in thread or PM me directly.
  8. Good Luck Everyone!

Votecount 1.00Image

Lxcifer
wilky
taiho
Thomas of the Tiels
CsBlastoise
gameplay506
Luca Blight
Derpy Hooves
Thestatusquo


Not Voting (9)
Everyone

Day one deadline is Sunday October 22, 6 PM PST. (expired on 2017-10-22 18:00:00)


Mod note: Since I track votes in excel, I usually provide vote counts with links in them (didn't this time since it's just an empty vote post before anyone has posted in the game thread). It's a bit unusual compared to most mods, but I consider it a nice service for players.


With 9 alive it takes 5 to lynch!

Where is everyone?

Anyway for the sake of not ruining the game on day 1, I’m probably just going to ask questions and process information and won’t actually start pushing to lynch my scum reads until day 2. This is unorthodox and some will find it scummy but I’m not really worried about that.

I’d rather make this game enjoyable and I can get wound up tight sometimes.

i'm sorry you misunderstood my post. I am not asking for a free pass. I clearly said I was still going to ask questions and process information aka scum hunt.

and it's going to happen whether you like it or not. You can policy lynch me if you want to but that is what i am going to do and lynching me isn't going to change anything.

Why would pushing your scumreads on D1 'ruin the game'?


Btw I didn't received a PM to say the day had actually started, so perhaps that's why so few have posted so far?

idk, go ask all of the people who say that to me or blame me for how unenjoyable games get.

All I do is try to lynch who I think is scum but for some reason people have an issue with it, so i'd rather wait until we have a flip and some actual useful information before tunneling on somebody.
