I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

rules

shamelessly stolen
inspired by plotinus' and schadd_'s rulesets.

the tl;dr:

~ day 1: 18 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~ do not quote pm's from the mod at all, either real or fabricated. do not quote posts from private threads.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 18 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, the scum pt, or your notes pt. 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.

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. this includes coloured text that is difficult to read or is receiving complaints from other players. 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.
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

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 18-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:
datisi wrote:HEAL: georgebailey
datisi wrote:VOTE: georgebailey
~ results in:
coalition
Datisi [1]:
GeorgeBailey
yeet
GeorgeBailey [1]:
Datisi


~ sample role pm's:
Spoiler:
vanilla towniewelcome,
playername
! you are a
vanilla townie
.

win condition:

~ you win if a coalition of 5 townies is locked in on day 1, or if all mafia are dead.

the game thread is here. please confirm your role by replying to this pm with your role name.

mafia goonwelcome,
playername
! you are a
mafia goon
.

factional abilities:

~ you are a member of the mafia, along with
playername
.
~ you share a factional pt, located here, where you may talk at any time.
~ once every night, a living member of the mafia may submit a factional kill action.

win condition:

~ you win if all townies are dead (or nothing can prevent this), but lose if a coalition of 5 townies is locked in on day 1.

the game thread is here. please confirm your role by replying to this pm with your role name or by posting in the mafia pt.

I don't think I have history playing with any of you except MBot...

Can someone explain to me why voting is not advised?

Also agree with the logic from mc ester, re: how scum-Galron might have acted in that scenario.

My plan was to scum-hunt for about 10 days, then create the town-bloc from the 10 days of interaction. Never played this setup before so if I'm missing something here feel free to point me in the right direction.

my thinking is that we want our elimination to be informed by the coalition results; if the coalition is not all-town, we're [i think?] eliminating the scummiest coalition member. while i dont think we're likely to hammer someone prior to locking in a coalition, i can easily imagine a situation where we get stuck with suboptimal wagons because the only people we've run up are no longer in our ideal elimination pool.

the obvious counterpoint is that it's difficult to pressure people without voting; i wouldnt be all "nah that's definitely wrong" if someone came in with a random vote right now, i can see this one both ways. imo, we can generate enough information to sort the game through heal tags alone, but i dont have any "real" reason to believe that.

in other words, because i think the uh emotional cost isnt really made clear in my initial post: im worried that after pushing a couple of people all day, having maybe one or both of them respond real badly to e-1, etc., it might become very difficult to convince a sufficiently large number of people "no, we should really eliminate a weak townread".

this isnt so relevant if im wrong about eliminating a coalition member on failure, but idk lol if the mod says "there's definitely at least one scum in there", i think we have to take that?

We'll be fine. Just unvote before coalition deadline or...actually form a coalition by deadline.

Haha Looker. Nice one. Hopefully not a lot of subs this game. Getting a coalition locked in will give us a step in the right direction for POE.
