- Rules (pure and unstolen)
- If the game remains in the same day for 3 weeks, it'll go into deadline. In every 24 hour block after the deadline has hit, at least half of the living players must post or the game will go to night. So yeah, lynch quickly or keep things active.
- Night deadlines are "whenever I next get online 48 hours after [the lynch scene/finding any necessary replacements]." If I'm missing your choice and you're on AIM, I'll contact you and give you a minute to think of something. Otherwise, you'll just miss your choice. I will not announce day sooner, even if all choices are in.
No Lynch is not allowed in this game.
If the game goes to night due to a deadline, the person with the most votes will be lynched. If there is a tie at this point, I will flip a coin. Please don't tie. (Note that the mafia win condition ends the game at 50%.)
- With the exception of living mafia communicating at night, living players may not discuss this game off of the thread with either other living players or dead ones. Living players may ask nonplaying rantbuddies nicely if they would ever replace into this game and, if they say that they won't, proceed to rant. Rantbuddies should not be doing your scumhunting or passing messages along. I am of course available, sympathetic and discreet.
- Votes should be in the format '
vote: Yosarian's Mom
.' If they are not, they won't count. I will register misspellings and nicknames if I can figure out who you're referring to. You do not have to unvote
, but you're welcome to do so anyway.
- Do try to be active. Living players may publically or privately request a prod for a player who hasn't posted in at least 72 hours. I will automatically send one out to anyone who hasn't posted in a week. If asked, I will publically disclose the status of any prod.
- I will seek a replacement for anyone who has not picked up a prod for 48 hours or has requested replacement. If you have been prodded more than twice in the same day phase, I will confront you about this.
- When a player has the majority of the votes at a single point, it is dead and the game goes to twilight. No one may post in twilight.
- I don't like 'Bah!' posts all that much, but I'll allow them because this is an open game. Don't say anything relevant after you're dead, obviously.
- I'll try to post one votecount per page. If I miss a page, I'll edit a votecount into the top of the page. Every page will have a votecount somewhere. If I make mistakes in my votecount, it is your right to verbally abuse me. "Point them out gently" indeed.
- The out-of-character font is my domain. Don't impersonate me, especially if you are Unvote.
- Read your role PM. Don't reference ongoing games. Don't take advantage of any abilities you might have as a list mod. Don't flame players excessively. I might be forgetting some things; I reserve the right to add rules and clarifications mid-game as I see fit.
- Play to win, but do try to have fun while you're at it.
3 players have received:
Mafia wrote:You are part of the
mafia
with
[...]
and
[...]
. Every night, those of you who are still alive may communicate with each other privately and choose a player to nightkill. (I am personally interested in reading any transcripts, but don't inconvenience yourselves.) If you send in conflicting night choices, only the most recent will be processed.
You win at least 50% of the living players are mafia.
Despite this being what the mafia received, the win condition statement is in fact a lie. They win if
at least 50% of the living players are mafia, which was certainly not true at the time when the PMs were sent out. My bad.
7 players have received:
Vanilla wrote:You are a
vanilla townie
. You may post and vote during the day phases of the game. This is also true of every other role in the game, but I'm trying to make you feel special here.
You win when all mafiates are dead.
1 player has received:
Cop wrote:You are a
cop
. Every night, you may send me the name of a player. You will receive an accurate [scum/not scum] result on this player.
You win when all mafiates are dead.
1 player has received:
Doctor wrote:You are a
doctor
. Every night, you may send me the name of a player. If the mafia attempt to kill it that night, the game will return to day with no nightkill at all.
You win when all mafiates are dead.

Disclaimer: making decisions based on what names were used where in what flavor text would be funnier than rolling a die, and equally effective. Doitdoitdoit.
You're in a jail cell in Logicstan with your hood bruthas and sistas. Apparently the guy you shot at the bank actually
died
. This scene is not unfamiliar.
You know you'll sit in the cell until morning. Then Tables Bob, the warden, will give you a puzzle and threaten to kill you all if one of you screws up. Then you'll all get it right and he'll have no choice but to let you go. You're on very familiar terms with Tables Bob, but you have even closer bonds between each other. By now, you can see your hat's color in Shanba's eyes.
It's a pretty relaxed night. Logicstan prison food isn't bad, and JDodge has managed to hide £500 worth of American, British and Maltese currency in his armpit. You're all figuring out how to divide it up evenly when a jailer comes in.
It isn't Tables Bob. It's a woman with a vacuum cleaner where her left arm should be. In her right hand is a page from a scientific journal. She slides it through the bars, and you get a glimpse of the headline:
Ability to Solve Certain Puzzle Genres Not Affected by Karma
.
"I'm Ether. Tables Bob is currently being tried for his irrational sense of justice, so I'm going to be your warden over the next few days. We're going to be experimenting with the 'informed minority versus uninformed majority' approach.
"You're each going to get a card. Some of you will get 'mafia' cards. Some will get 'town' cards. This will be random, although the totals of each card type will be guaranteed, see above. You all choose someone to kick out, then the mafia chooses someone to kick out blah blah blah we only execute all the mafia or all the town. The rest of you will be free to go--
this
time.
"Don't do it again."
Day 1
. With 12 alive, it'll take 7 to lynch naturally. The game will go into deadline on the midnight between Monday and Tuesday, November 26-27, Eastern time.

This is an awfully silly question.
You already know who I want lynched. Yet, while voting for somebody else, you ask me who we should lynch. What exactly are you trying to accomplish here?
Not gonna lie, I'm tempted to follow IH's vote. This feels like a pretty typical ass-kissing question.

But then I'd cry and have to give up all hope of surviving day 1 before the end of the first page and that's definitely not fun.
