Song Contest U-Pick - Replacements welcome (20/20)

[Matias]

Song Contest U-Pick

This is a U-Pick game of Mafia based off of the long running General Discussion phenomenon; the Song Contest!

Moderator: Matias
Co-Mod: quadz08
Reviewer: quadz08

This game includes...

-No bastard elements or mechanics
-One Vanilla Townie at the very least
-Non-Normal Roles (based on what people pick)
-Normal Roles (based on what people pick)
-NO cults, jesters, survivors, etc.
-Standard mechanics
-Song Contest flavor (with a look into the history and trends of the Song Contest)

You, by no means, have had to have been a part of the actual Song Contest to play in this game. In fact, it is encouraged that you play if you have not been involved with the Song Contest. As well as playing a fun game of Mafia, you will most likely learn about really great music, voted by your peers!

General Ruleset:

Spoiler: General Ruleset

1. You use votes to lynch (

Vote: Matias

). A majority vote lynches a player. If a deadline is reached before a majority vote happens, a No Lynch will happen.
2. You can no-lynch (

Vote: No-Lynch

). No lynch occurs when half (majority when half is not possible) of the players vote for it.
3. Please bold your votes and unvotes or else they don't count. You don't need to unvote, but I'd like it.
4. Don't talk in real life or on the boards about the game (meaning face-to-face, off-site communication, through any Instant Messenger clients or through e-mails, etc...basically, keep all talk about this game IN this thread). This is subject to a site wide ban, and it WILL happen, even if you use [redacted] or casually mention it.
5. No secret messages using size tags, color tags or any other trickery. Crumbs of your role are fine but you CANNOT use fake black color or size tags to do that. Such use of tags and other hidden information are subject to a modkill.
6. Don't quote my PMs, fake or not. Do not post any confirmable information from your role PM (including picture resolutions, time stamps, format, or anything else that can be matched and confirmed). You can quote my in-thread posts.
7. If you're the lynchee, you MAY talk in twilight. If you're dead, you're dead; don't talk. Not even a single "Bah" post.
8. Personal attacks and heated arguments may happen in this game. I understand that. However, if you go too far and someone complains to me about your behavior, I will take action that may include a warning or a modkill. I may punish you based on what I deem to be way out of line. Be respectful of other people, even in the heat of this game.
10. If I make a mistake, let me know. I'm not infallible, especially with vote counts.
11. I'll vote count every page, but if I slack, let me know.
12. Please use V/LA if you aren't going to post within 3 days.
13. I'll prod you if you don't post after 3 days. 3 prods and I'm replacing you. You have 48 hours to respond to a prod before I replace you. For those coming off of V/LA, you have 1 full day to post (midnight of return date until midnight of the next day, EDT) or else you will be prodded.
13a. If there are prodded players by the time a day ends, they must return the prod by PM or they will be replaced, even during the night phase.
14. You can leave the game if you wish (

MOD: Please replace me

). If you rage quit or joke around, I will take that as a serious request.
15. Days are (7+(2/3*n) days rounded up, where n equals the number of players still alive. Extensions can be voted for (

Vote: Deadline Extension

), but will only be given out by my discretion. Extensions are only given out in the event of site outages, major disruptions or other unforseeable acts.
16. I'm the mod. Whatever I say, goes.
17. I post in

bolded teal

, so don't use it. Other colors are ok. Do not impersonate me.
18. Modkills turn you into Neutral Survivor. They end the day if the modkilled player is town, they do NOT end the day if he/she is scum.
19. Play to your wincon. I'll be the judge of that, and I'm pretty reasonable on judging actions either playing to or against wincon. Voting for yourself to play towards your win-con is okay; outing scumbuddies and self-hammering for fun is not and are subject to site bans (see: the rules in the News section).

All night actions will be resolved using Natural Action Resolution. If a roleblocking role affects another roleblocking role, it will be blocked.

Game Specific Rules:

1. You will be picking three (3) entries from this list (http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?tit ... /Song_List) of songs. Please pick from Song Contest 1 to Battle of the Best 4 (B4) on this list (therefore, any song currently in Song Contest 71 is not allowed). When you /in to play this game, you will PM my account (Matias) with the three entries that you'd like, in order of preference (1. is your most favorite, 2. is the middle favorite, 3. is the third favorite). If you do not PM my account with your picks, your name will not be added to the player list until you do.
2. It is entirely up to quadz and I which of the entries out of the three that you will be playing as,

no matter if someone else takes it or not

. Therefore, if you get your second or third favorite, do not assume that your first favorite was already picked.
3. Songs can be

ANY ROLE

and

ANY ALIGNMENT

. It doesn't matter how dark or happy they sound. For example, do not automatically assume that Death - Overactive Imagination is scum, and do not automatically assume that Symphony of Science - Happy Little Clouds is town.
4. You may pick multiple songs from the same artist, and there actually might be multiple songs from the same artist. Again, do not assume they are of a certain alignment or role together.
5. There will not be two of the exact same song in this game, even though there might be two songs from the same artist.
6. I will be randoming a certain song entry for each votecount and giving a bit of a historical blurb. This is done completely at random, and has no bearing on which songs people have picked. It is simply for flavor.
