GAME RULES


GENERAL

Spoiler:
-Adhere to all site rules.
-Always play to win.
-Remember that this is a game - heated discussion is allowed, but personal attacks are not. Comment on play, not player.
-Pretending to break the rules will be treated similarly as actually breaking the rules.
-Do not quote any private communication regarding this game—this includes your role PM, other mod communication, posts from private threads, etc. Paraphrasing is acceptable. If you're unsure, ask me first.
-If you need to get my attention, please include "
@mod
" in your post or PM me.
-
This
(darkred) is my color. You can use it, if you want.
-Do not use encryption, hidden text or excessively small text in your posts.
-Do not use any form of provable randomness. This includes dice tags, screenshots of random.org, etc. Saying you flipped a coin is okay, providing some sort of proof that you did isn’t.
-Each day phase will last for 12 days, with night phases lasting 48 hours.
-Do not post in the game thread or any private topics following your death, with the exception of the dead thread.
-If you have the ability to edit your posts, do not do so.
-My decisions are final. If I feel you are violating any of the rules, I will take the appropriate action.
-As a general principle, whenever moderator action is required I will attempt to make the decision that has the least impact on the natural flow of gameplay. For example, force replacing instead of modkilling whenever possible.
-Point 1 from the rules regarding replacement here does not apply. Unless I inform you otherwise, you are allowed to replace back in if a replacement hasn't been found yet.
-Have fun!


VOTING

Spoiler:
-All votes and unvotes must be in
bold
or in VOTE: tags, with vote tags being preferable.
-Votes in spoilers will not be counted.
-Abbreviations and nicknames are acceptable, as long as I can understand them.
-Lynches will occur when a majority (>50%) is reached. If no majority is reached before deadline, the player with the most votes will be lynched. Ties will be resolved by wagon seniority. If the day ends with no votes cast, a random town-aligned player will die.
-Once a hammer has occurred, the game is in "twilight". Discussion may continue until I lock the thread but no further votes or unvotes will be counted.


ACTIVITY

Spoiler:
-You are expected to make at least one game-relevant post every 48 hours. Players who go 48 hours without posting will be prodded.
-If you are prodded, you have 24 hours to post in-thread. If you do not respond within 24 hours, you will be replaced. Additionally, if I have to prod you 3 or more times, I reserve the right to replace you at my own discretion.
-Abuse of prod dodges will result in you being replaced at my own discretion.
-If you are going to be V/LA, please announce it in thread or PM me. If your V/LA will last 7 days or longer I may be forced to replace you.


SETUP

Spoiler:
Secrets of the Anuket Topaz
Roles
:
  • 10 Vanilla Townies

  • 3 Mafia Goons

Mechanics
:
  • The first two nights are skipped.
  • Day 1 and Day 2, if a member of the Mafia is lynched, they must confirm 5 living players to be aligned with the town.
    • This will result in their loss if Mafia is lynched both Day 1 and Day 2.
  • Starting from Day 3, the Mafia will begin escaping.
    • Each night, in addition to a mandatory kill, one of the Mafia must choose to escape, and will exit the game being revealed to be Mafia.
    • At this point, if just one of the Mafia is lynched, the Mafia loses.
    • The Mafia win when all living members escape.
  • If no Mafia were lynched Day 1 or Day 2, one member of the mafia will escape immediately following the end of Day 2.


Mafia have daytalk.
If you have any questions about the setup, feel free to ask.

Ahoy scumbags! 'tis I, th' dreaded Captain "Four Hooves". I be here t' commandeer this fine vessel 'n sail it straight into sunset on me quest t' find th' long lost loot o' Mith. Along th' way, I would like t' purge any 'n all empires from th' eight seas.

Now now, no needs t' get yer knickers in a twist. I be allowin' some o' ye landlubbers t' join in me crew. Ye must be ole enough t' fire a match lock, but nah too ole that yer bones be swimmin' wit' th' fishes. Unfortunately, all sprogs must be sent below th' poopdeck t' work in me gift shop sellin' bobblehead versions o' meself. Fortunately, we 'ave great education down thar from esteem sea bearin' professors and universal healthcare!

If ye wish t' join me crew, we must destroy th' pathetic trivial cap'n known as "big horn" votato. He has breached priate law far too many times 'n be woefully dishonest, even fer a pirate!

So, I am just wondering some stuff regarding the setup. From what I've read, does scum auto-win once they reach day 5? and why would them getting lynched Day 1 and Day 2 instantly end the game if there are supposed to be 3 players?

They do win aye by then.

But if they be scuttled from th' ship durin' day 1 'n day 2, each has t' give up 5 townies that are confirmed by th' moderator. Therefore, if they be scuttled both days, then all townies are thus confirmed 'n town wins.

Interestingly enough though, if we scuttle mafia past day 2 then we auto win. So either we can go fer th' booty victory 'n scuttle them back t' back, or jus' try t' scuttle one day 3 onwards.

I be nah sure if leavin' th' most scummy player alive till day 3 be feasible, so I rather nah debate that plan.

fun fact: pirates were not nearly as violent in general as stories made them out to be. its mostly pirate propaganda, because if people feared them they would surrender and that made pirates' lives easier. Pirates also used constitutions based on unanimous consent and generally had very equitable pay structures. theres a really good book on pirates called "the invisible hook" by peter leeson. its a very good and easy read, although it was published by an academic press.

i think the play is always to lynch scum early and often. intentionally lynching town seems very silly.

Aye I agree. I even reckon tryin' t' scuttle anti townies may prove problematic in th' long run. Thar be also counterplay mafia could employ, that I rather nah openly speculate, which could make th' process harder if we ended up bein' successful in gettin' scum day 1 or 2.
