rules

shamelessly stolen

inspired by plotinus' and schadd_'s rulesets.

the tl;dr:

~ day 1: 16 days. days 2+: 8 days. nights: 2 days.
~ majority yeets.
~ 36 hour before prod, 24 hours before replacement.
~ if you want to replace out, pm me.
~ flavour has no bearing on player alignments.
~ don't be a dick.

the basics:

~ follow all site rules.
~ my mod colour is

teal

. you can use it if you want, just don't attempt to impersonate me.
~ you may not talk to each other about this game outside of threads i have created for this purpose. you may not talk about other ongoing games in this thread.
~

if you wish to replace out, pm me, do not request replacement in thread.

do not discuss your reasons for replacing out publically. do not threaten to replace out or tell other players to replace out. if you have any concerns that a player should be replaced, pm me.
~ do not quote pm's from the mod at all, either real or fabricated. do not quote posts from private threads. this includes specific timestamps. paraphrasing is acceptable.
~

don’t be a dick.

this is a heated game but toxicity will not be tolerated. attack the play not the player. if your fellow players tell you to stop, you must stop. if you do not stop, i will tell you to stop. if you still do not stop, you will be force-replaced.
~

flavour is just flavour, and has no bearing on player alignments.

don't use it to make arguments.
~ play to win. seriously claiming scum with another player is against the rules. i will judge what counts as serious - don't toe the line.
~ if you have any questions about the rules, feel free to pm me.

days and voting:

~ day 1 lasts up to 16 real-life days. days 2+ last up to 8 real-life days.
~ extensions may or may not be granted if there are replacements, or if the circumstances call for it (for example, if the site was experiencing issues).
~ votes must be in bold in the format VOTE: datisi or

vote: datisi

. Strong preference for using vote tags instead of bold tags. unvotes are nice but not required. type [

v]datisi[

/v] to vote and [

uv]datisi[

/uv] to unvote.
~ you can use nicknames when voting, as long as it is clear who you're referring to.
~ if i think it’s a vote, it’s a vote.
~ days end early when a simple majority of players (50% of living players + 1 rounded down) vote to yeet somebody. however, this rule is not in effect during day one's coalition phase.
~ if a majority is not reached at deadline or if a majority of the players vote for no yeet, the day will end without a yeet. at evens, 50% is sufficient for no yeet.
~ twilight begins when a majority is reached and lasts until i lock the thread. you're still alive until i flip you so you can talk in any game threads you have access to until then, but no votes or unvotes will be counted.
~ it takes (100% of living players + 1) votes to yeet the moderator.

activity and v/la:

~ you must post at least once every 36 hours or i will prod you. you then have 24 hours to post in the game thread or i will replace you. if you come back before i find a replacement, you can stay.
~ if i have to prod you for the fourth time, i will automatically start searching for a replacement.
~ if you haven't posted in the 24 hours before the thread is locked for night, you must reply to the night start pm or you will be replaced during the night.
~ players can request me to prod somebody early. this will only count as an official prod if you don't post before you would have been due for a prod.
~ if you need to be absent for longer than 36 hours, you should declare

v/la

in bold in the thread like this: [

b]

@mod: I will be v/la until thursday

[

/b]. while you are v/la, you will be nudged once every 60 hours. two nudges equals one prod. if you have not posted game advancing content in 5 days, regardless of v/la status, 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; datisi is still scum."

nights and night actions:

~ nights last 48 hours.
~ the night phase can be shortened if every living player -- even those with no night actions -- agrees to it and if I'm not busy.
~ you may submit actions via pm. if you have a scum pt, a mason pt, or a notes pt, you may also submit your actions there. if the actions are not submitted by the deadline then you do nothing. you can change your mind as many times as you like before the deadline.
~ if i don't hear from you about your night actions, i'll pm you 24 hours before the deadline. this doesn't count as a prod. if i still don't hear from you, you will take no action.

miscellaneous:

~ let me know if you want a private thread to store your thoughts and feedback for the other players. you may draft posts in your notes pt if the posts are clearly meant to be posted in the main thread. you may talk about your notes pt. you may not directly quote from your notes pt, and you may not use it to demonstrate that you've had a town mindset in private all along; just put your town mindset in public to begin with and keep your notes to yourself.
~ provable randomness is against the rules. saying that you rolled a dice is fine, using dice tags or random.org screenshots is not.
~ no hard to read / extremely small text. cryptography is forbidden. breadcrumbing is okay.
~ using scripts to alter or hide another player's posts is not allowed.
~ the only allowed media is embedded content, or links to uneditable content. for example, you are not allowed to link vocaroos and pastebins in the thread.
~ very big images and big chunks of non-game-related text are allowed, as long as they are spoiled. if you post them without a spoiler, i will edit a spoiler in.
~ excessive spamming is not allowed.
~ the mod may make mistakes. minor errors (such as a mistake in the vote count) can be pointed out in-thread. for bigger errors, please pm me.
~ i reserve the right to alter/remove/add any rules as i see fit. you will be notified if this happens.

game setup - the coalition

setup:

~ 7 x

vanilla townie

~ 2 x

mafia goon

mechanics:

~ the mafia pt will be open at all times.
~ daystart.
~ on day 1, each player may propose a coalition of five players (and may change their mind about this as often as they like, until a coalition is locked in).
~ a majority coalition is agreed upon when at least five players have the same group of five people proposed as a coalition. at this point, the coalition is locked in and cannot be changed.
~ if a coalition containing scum is locked in, the game continues onto a normal day 1 at that point (but town have the information that there was at least one scum inside the coalition); the coalition mechanic is disabled for the rest of the game.
~ if a coalition containing five townies is locked in, town automatically wins.

day one notes:

~ day 1 (potentially) has two phases: the coallition phase and the voting phase.
~

the 16-day deadline is for both phases. there will be no extensions granted after a failed coalition.

~ type [

heal

]datisi[/heal] to add someone to your coalition and [

hurt

]datisi[/hurt] to remove them. these tags are necessary.
~ normal votes will be tracked during the coalition phase, despite it being impossible to achieve a yeet.
~ however, if a failed coalition is locked in, and there is currently a majority vote on someone, that player will be yeeted immediately.

coalition phase vote counts:

~ putting someone's name in the heal tags will add them into your coaliton.
~ if your coalition is full, nobody can be added until someone is removed with the hurt tags.
~ the "coalition" part of the vote count shows the name of the player, then everyone they have in their coalition.
~ the "yeet" part of the vote count shows the name of the player, then everyone who is voting to yeet them.

~ for example, this:

HEAL: georgebailey

VOTE: georgebailey

~ results in:

coalition

flavour

"...and finally, these are the sample role pm's. now, does anyone have any questions?"

datisi lowered his megaphone and looked at the crowd in front of him. he was easily able to tell that nobody was listening, but that didn't bother him; he loved when a faction-hurting issue would arise in his games as a result of players not knowing his rules. even better if he was then directly asked to resolve the issue, as he could just quietly point at the relevant part of the ruleset stuck on the town square's bulletin board.

"well, remember that you can also ask me privately at any time."

it was a sunny morning, and eleven people gathered at the town square to play a game of mafia. ten of them were players, gathered together in a small crowd, most of them looking a mixture of bored and impatient. the eleventh person, the loud annoying asshole with a megaphone and a whole bunch of printed out weird images, was the moderator. however, someone was missing...

"oh, hi george, what took you so long?"

georgebailey, the backup moderator, finally got to the town square, carrying a coffee to go in each hand. he smiled and nodded at the crowd, realizing he cannot wave with his hands full, then approached datisi and gave him one of the cups.

"thank you! keep the change," datisi said with a cheesy grin on his face, accepting the coffee, "just what would i do without you?"

"pay for your own damn coffee," george thought, but he decided not to say that aloud, and instead gave a sour smile in return.

careful not to spill his coffee, datisi went into his backpack with his free hand, looking for the envelopes that contained the role pm's for the game. 7 town and 2 mafia ones, he even paid to have them printed out himself.

as he was shuffling through the mess inside his backpack, he noticed lilith was approaching them. finally finding the envelopes, he grabbed them, put his backpack down, and went up to her to say hi.

"good to see you, lilith! what brings you here?"

"oh, listmod duty," she trailed off, looking around the place. while she knew that the coalition was a pretty direct open setup that even datisi would have a hard time botching, she still decided it would be a good idea to keep an eye on the game, just in case. "could i see the moderation notes, please?"

"no problem," datisi cheerily said before turning to george, and in a much more stern voice saying, "george, my hands are full. be useful, get my modding notebook out of my backpack, and show it to lilith, yeah? i need to hand these out." he waved the envelopes for emphasis, then turned around and started walking towards the crowd, sipping his coffee as he tried to figure out where is the player whose name was on the first envelope.

george sighed, got the notebook out of the backpack, opened it on the relevant page, and quietly handed it to lilith. "uh, thanks," lilith glanced at the page, didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, then handed the notebook back to george.

finally taking a proper look at him, george looked tired as hell and like he was regretting all of his life decisions. concerned, lilith turn around to look towards the players. seeing that datisi was occupied with handing out the envelopes, and knowing he's got a game to run, she quietly asked george,

"so... how did you end up here?"

[Datisi]

all role pm's are out. everyone has (expired on 2021-07-30 18:00:00) to confirm their role pm. whoever doesn't do so by that deadline will get replaced.

we start when 8/9 players confirm their role. currently confirmed: 9/9

[Datisi]

flavour

"funny story, actually!"

both lilith and george got startled when datisi suddenly appeared behind them, he walked quickly and without making a sound. and just how did he manage to hear them...?

unfazed by their reaction, datisi quickly turned to the crowd to yell out, "alright, game starts, you know the drill! agree by majority vote on five people you think are townies, i will probably tell you that you're wrong, and then you get to play 7v2 mountainous! good luck, have fun," before turning back to lilith and george. lilith still had traces of shock on her face, while george seemed to have gone back to quiet anguish.

"so, it all started in late february of the cursed year of 2020..."

[Datisi]

vote count 1.00

I already know this setup fairly well, I'd like you lot who I have not seen play it demonstrate your own understanding of it so I can see your thought processes.

I want to be the first town to successfully get a pure coalition going.

Also I recognize literally almost none of you, so this should be fun.
