Miscellany

• All non-humans will be given a human fakeclaim name.
  
• Any alien fakeclaim will be given upon request.
  
• There may be Godfathers, Framers, Redirectors, and other similar roles. Specific action trumps a general status (but for Ascetic).
  
• The Mod Uses a Limited Order of Operations. (Blocks resolve before Redirects unless the Redirector targets the blocker directly).
  
• Alignment Cops Return "Friend" or "Foe" unless otherwise stated in the role PM. Friend means that the player can win with their target. Foe means they cannot. Framed players return Foe.
  
• Any questions must be resolved by PM or PT.

GAME RULES

Rules stolen for the most part from the shiny Varsoon.

IT'S DAYBREAK:

Spoiler:

As a general rule you should aim for one post every 24 hours, minimum, to keep the game moving.
If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period please post a notice to that effect in the thread. Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – please don't leave us hanging!
Prods of missing players will be issued after 48 hours of no activity. Also, players may request a prod on another player after 48 hours. Any player may be replaced if they fail to post in-thread within 24 hours of being prodded by me. If the game turns to night before you can respond to your prod, PM me letting me know you still want to play.
No prods will be issued during Night.
A player who is eligible for a third prod is subject to possible replacement without further notice.
You may not quote private Moderator-supplied information (either real or fabricated) of any kind. Paraphrasing (for role claims, etc.) is acceptable. Saying your flavor name does not count as quoting for this rule.
You may not quote private topic or other out-of-game discussion (such as Hydra chats) in the public game thread, regardless of if the quotes are real or fabricated. Paraphrasing is acceptable.
You can always copy and paste the full content of your own posts (outside of moderator communication) so long as it does not contain any links to where it came from or any timestamps.
You may only ever paraphrase posts by other players and this is also subject to the same link/timestamp restriction.
There is to be NO personal communication outside of the forum postings and approved PTs or QTs. If someone contacts you outside the game you should report it to me immediately.
Don't attack the player, attack the argument. If you feel another player is being abusive or abused, contact me.
Don't try to modgame this. Asking about any greeting or other message in a role PM is strictly forbidden.
Don't try to flavor game or set up spec too hard. We're in uncharted territory (thanks for coming) so that should help a bit.
Any questions will be answered only if PMed or in a PT. If many people PM the same question (or if I feel it's urgent), I'll post to everyone.
Any concerns about players, force replace requests, or mod decisions should be PMed. I am watching.

DURING THE NIGHT:

Spoiler:

Night will have a 72-hour deadline. Extensions will not be given, unless a player has to be replaced during the Night or at the end of the Day.
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 by the posted deadline you will forfeit your actions.
If you expect not to be here to submit your night action during the night, you may send one in in advance, even during the day.
Roles with Night actions will not be able to submit an action on Night 0 (i.e. during the pre game).

ALL THAT OTHER JAZZ:

Spoiler:

Do not use standard site red unless referring to someone being a Krogan or scum. This is Titus's color. All other colors are fine.

No invisible/small/encrypted text is allowed (if you can't read it, don't post it).
You are not allowed to edit your posts, if you have the ability to do so.
If you have an issue/problem with the game, please PM me privately. Do not post issues/complaints in the game thread.
If you do not understand how your role functions, feel free to PM me.
I may make mistakes - please point out any mistakes gently. Mistakes will be corrected where possible, but sometimes mistakes are made that cannot be reversed. These will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
Rules violations will be dealt with according to their severity, up to and including a Modkill, as the Mod sees fit. Modkills may be accompanied by a change to day/night and the offender’s role will be changed to Neutral Survivor, which guarantees a loss.
- Just know, it's all about intention. If you genuinely mess up, I'll try to cut you some slack. If I determine you're trying to compromise the integrity of the game though, you won't be too happy with the punishment.
Any situation not explicitly covered above is subject to my discretion and will be handled as I see fit on a case-by-case basis.
I reserve the right to modify these rules at any time, so long as I inform you in thread.

THE GOLDEN RULE:

Spoiler:

Please remember that this is a game and your main objective is to have fun!
I created Mass Effect Mafia to bring people together and celebrate a game I love, but, ultimately, to have fun time on site.
Be considerate of each other, don’t get personal, and enjoy the game. Playing to win does not preclude being considerate of each other! Be cool. We love all of you. Mod hugs available on demand.

SAMPLE ROLE PM:

Spoiler:

Hi, Firebringer. Thanks for comodding this game with me. Our Role PM is below.


Fake Claim: Commander Shepard doesn't need a fake claim (this line is only present for Asari/Turian roles)

You've got 48 hours to ask any questions or just get familiar with the game before we begin. Confirm by PM with role and alignment. [Human/Turian/Asari] OR Your fellow Krogan/Salarian/Geth names and human fake claims are in your PT. Go hang in there for the 48 hours pre-game. Confirm by PM with role and alignment.

[Painbringer]

It is now Pregame. Pregame will end 48 hours after the last role PM is sent out. This post will be edited to reflect the start of the game countdown and the inital vote count when the game begins.

Just a general broadcast, I got this question a lot in various wordings

"Can the Asari/Turians use their cop and a night action on their card in the same night?

Answer: Yes".

Pregame ends in...
(expired on 2016-05-14 14:30:00).

Which is Saturday, May 14 at 2:30 PM PST or 4:30 CST

[Painbringer]

FA_Q2 replaces Southern Spice effective immediately.

[Painbringer]

Due to the site crash, we are delaying start time for another 24 hours to make sure everyone is still with us. You shall all be getting a PM that you should confirm that you are ready to start. The damn reapers must have hit us when we were all distracted in Chicago..

[Painbringer]

Some common questions answered.

Can scum factions use abilities and kill in the same night? Yes.

All factions have differing color role PM backgrounds. Humans are green. Asari are off white. Turians are blue. Krogans are red. Salarians are yellow. Geth are grey/black.

Can you provide a sample of Turian/Asari individual cop actions? Sure. Every Asari/Turian has this ability.

Hypothetical Asari PM: 1 shot post in thread.

Submission

Asari Cop: Painbringer
Post a dancing meme in thread at night.

Feedback: Your target is not Asari.

Tali was on the Citadel at the bar. She had avoided drinking and drugs for the most part, but after the Reaper battle, life was too short. She got really wasted, and her dream began to feel non-sensical. Twenty seven sentient beings she encountered had all gathered on her old Flotilla that she was on before she met Commander Shepard. They all looked human although deep down she knew most of them weren't. What would they do next? Who knew?

First person to form a counterwagon is always scum.

Also, I win with Humans.

[Cake Effect]

Hi guys!
Town don't have majority, so this might be a weird day.
Or game.
Or both.

[Varsoon]

Oh, I thought people-who-won-with-humans was a majority?
Regardless, I was thinking of strategies.
Maybe everyone could claim human or non-human?
Although I don't know if that'd help/solve anything.
Someone with more time and a better brain should think on this.

[Elsa and Anna]

I don't think there's much of a point to that.

VOTE: Varsoon

I feel like he's bona fide scum rn.

[Elsa and Anna]

I mean I don't know how to distinguish between all the different flavours of scum but he doesn't feel like someone who can win with town.

If that makes sense.

Just because someone can win with town doesn't mean they will want to. Therein lies the problem. Of course, it's optimal, but some survivors might go against us.

[Varsoon]

Wait, does your whole faction win with the other factions allied to you or is it just you as a single player if you're the last one left?
VOTE: Elsa and Anna

Ayyy it's your scumtell

if only a survivor-faction is left, that means only that survivor-faction will win.

-MM4 (as were all posts but our first.)

[Elsa and Anna]

Yeah, pretty close to positive Varsoon is scum here.

More votes go go go.

[Varsoon]

I think what is confusing me is the line for each faction that says "Have one XXXX alive and only one of the YYYY/ZZZZ live. All others die."
So does that mean that in the scenario that there's only 1 XXXX and 1 YYYY left, they both win for their whole faction?
And, similarly, if only 1 XXXX, 1 YYYY, and 1 ZZZZ are alive, who wins?
I'm so confused now.

nobody wins yet in the last scenario. someone gets to choose a loser.

[Varsoon]

Yeah, pretty close to positive Varsoon is scum here.

More votes go go go.

Cool, I'm absolutely positive you're wrong.


P-EDIT: Okay, that makes more sense. Well, shit then. I guess there's no real ways to game the setup and oust scum super easy.

[Yume]

Hullo, it is I, and I am cute.

So not a town reaction.

[Varsoon]

So, what is the 'town' reaction?
You're severely limiting yourself and weakening your game if you think anyone of any alignment is incapable of anything.
