General Rules:
1. No excessive swearing, attacks, etc. Be civil, its just a game.
2. Players are not allowed to communicate outside the thread at any time unless their PM says so.
3. Do not edit posts. Most of you cannot edit posts anyway, so this shouldn't be a problem.
4. Once you are dead, you are allowed one Bah! post. It should be short and should contain absolutely no game related opinion or information.
5. You may not quote any private communication with me.
6. Do not post in small font, white text, spoiler tags, or any other form of hidden message. You may not post in any language other than English.
7. Play to your win condition.
8. Do not reference ongoing games. You may reference completed games, not current ones.
9.
Purple
is the color I'll use to post vote counts, edit things into other people's posts, etc. Do not impersonate me.
10. If you have a question or concern, or if you think that I may have made an error, do not hesitate to ask by pm. Be sure to bold requests directed at me so that I see them.
11. I reserve the right to modkill based on egregious violations of the above. Modkilling will end the day.
12. Votes must be bolded. For example,
Vote: Scott Brosius
. You may unvote by typing
Unvote
. I do not require you to unvote before changing your vote.
13. Vote counts will be provided once per day at the minimum.
14. Once a lynching majority has been reached, the game will go into twilight. You may continue to talk during twilight until I get to locking the thread, but no votes or unvotes will be counted.
15. You may also vote for no lynch to happen on that day by typing
Vote: No lynch
. A no-lynch requires half the living players to vote for it.
16. A full majority (not half) is necessary for a lynch at deadline.
17. If a majority has not been reached by the deadline, a no-lynch will occur, and the game will go into night.
18. Each day will have three-week deadlines. Extensions will be considered based on circumstances.
19. Night lasts for 72 hours, but might be extended if I need a replacement. The day will not start early even if I have all night actions in.
20. If a player fails to post for 72 consecutive hours, he will be prodded. If that player does not post for another 48 hours after he's been prodded, he'll be replaced.
21. Prods are available upon request. I'll still issue an official prod at the 72 hour mark, though.
22. If you are going away, or if you have limited access to the site, notify me in-topic so that I know not to prod or replace you and that the others know you are gone. If you're going to be V/LA over the night phase and have a night action, you may send in your action early. Night actions that are not sent in will result in no action unless a player has a mandatory night action. If not sent in, this will be randomized.
23. All night actions in this game will be determined using Natural Action Resolution.
24. Non-investigative roles with an active ability will not be told if their action was successful or not. Investigative roles will be told that they "were unable to determine..." if their action was unsuccessful.
Here is a Sample Role PM
You are
Santa's Little Helper
(Springfield Townie)
You are the Simpson's loyal pet even though you were almost replaced and kicked out many times.
Abilities: Only your voice and your vote.
You win when all threats to Springfield are eliminated and there is at least one Springfieldian alive.
