Game Rules
(

borrowed WITHOUT permission and modified from JasonWazza, who got them from Tierce, who got them from a turtle, who got them from another turtle, who got them from another turtle, &c. &c. ad infinitum)
General Rules
1. All
site wide rules apply
2. Play to your win condition
3. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
4. Do not impersonate or pretend to be the moderator, especially in falsetto.
This is my colour.
5. Do not edit or delete your posts in this thread. If there is a problem with a post, such as incorrect formatting, ask me to fix it for you.
6. Do not quote communications outside the game thread, including role PMs, quicktopics, etc., in the game thread. This specifically includes PM timestamps. Paraphrasing is allowed. If in doubt, ask.
7. The first rule of ongoing game club is don't talk about ongoing game club
8. Do not use any form of provable randomness. Claiming you rolled dice and acting on that is fine. Using dice tags is not.
9. No mummified cat juggling
10. If you wish to address me in thread, please do so in bold (ie.
@Mod: can we get a prod on Dr. Kevorkian?
or
@Beli: update the freaking vote wouldja?
)
also 10. The floor is lava
11. No set of rules can be all-encompassing. I reserve the right to take any action at any time, for any reason. However, I try to be extremely reasonable. If you have any questions about the game, rules, or players, please ask me via PM
12. Nothing said about Canada or Canadians this game may be considered racist
Activity Rules
1. If a player goes 48 real life hours without posting (or after 24 hours by a player's request), they will be prodded. Prods will be announced in thread.
2. A prodded player has 24 hours to respond. If they do not, they will be replaced (and my disapproval may be expressed via rodentia-based projectiles hurled by my patented Ratapult™).
3. If you will be V/LA during the game, please notify me by PM or by making an in-thread announcement; prods will not be issued to players who are V/LA
4. If you receive 3 prods in one game day, you will become a magical liopluradon. As liopluradons (liopluradonia?) cannot speak or type, this will make it necessary to replace you.
5. Each game day will have a deadline of
14 real life days
. If deadline should pass while I am
shagging my secretary
working industriously at my place of employment, I will check the timestamps before counting votes and unvotes.
6. In the event a deadline is reached before a lynch then a
No Lynch
will occur and Jesus will shoot one of
these puppies.
7. Each night will have a deadline of
2 real life days
(48 hours). Weekends will NOT alter the night deadline
8. If a player has a night action and fails to submit before the deadline, no action will be performed by that player. Mafia players may submit night actions for their teammates.
9. Night actions may be submitted in advance if you are going to be away for the night phase. Mafia members sending advance night actions should specify whether or not they want their teammate to be able to change it.
10 . Deadlines may be extended upon request or for completely arbitrary reasons at my discretion.
Voting Rules
1. Votes and unvotes must be on a separate line, using vote tags or
bold
(
VOTE: Belisarius/
VOTE: Belisarius
). If you do not wish to lynch, you may
VOTE: No Lynch/
VOTE: No Lynch
. Abbreviations, missing punctuation, and misspellings will be accepted as long as it is obvious to me who is being voted for. If I perceive it as a vote, it counts as a vote
2. The exception to Rule #1 is if you unvote and then immediately vote on the same line. That's cool.
3. It is not necessary to explicitly unvote (
UNVOTE: Player name/
UNVOTE: Player name
) before voting someone else, though it is preferred.
3. Once a majority of votes is reached (# of players / 2 + 1, rounded down), that person is lynched. Further votes and unvotes during twilight will not be counted.
4. All living players, including the lynchee, may continue to post until I lock the thread.
5. If you are dead, You may make one post with no game related content (a bah post) during the next day or twilight. "Bah" posts are required to contain the word "invultuation" and at least three swears or the offending player will be killed again.
6. Every vote count, a randomised extra vote will be placed by Jesus Christ. For this reason, a vote count will occur at least once per 24 hours even if no votes have changed. I'll still be trying for a pagetop even if the last VC was only 5 posts ago
7. Christ cannot hammer. He does not like nails.
8. If Christ's vote would have been a hammer, it is applied to the the player with the least votes. In the event of a tie for least, the choice will be randomised
9. Christ cannot vote for a no lynch
