0) This is a game. You are supposed to have fun. Notify the mod immediately if you feel this rule has been violated.
1) Do not discuss the game outside of the thread.
2) Do not discuss the game with dead players or players not in the game.
3) Once your death scene is posted, you’re dead. Stop posting. (You may make 1 contentless “bah” post. This post should have *no* game-related content. Please PM me if you are uncertain.)
4) Do not quote mod PMs. If you will be paraphrasing, I encourage you to run it by me first.
5) Do not edit posts. If you have something to add, add a new post. If you accidentally doublepost or mess up your tags, don’t panic- just PM me and I’ll fix it.
6) Do not post in invisible or micro text. (Or use anything annoyingly clever, such as HTML-tagged text or intentional misvotes. PM me if in doubt.)
7) There is no rule 7.
8) Votes and unvotes will only be counted if bolded. Unvotes must be made before revoting. If you forget, I will PM you to remind you. (Unless you persistently forget.)
9) Votecounts will reflect the contents of the thread, not necessarily the actual game state.
10) Lynches (or no-lynches) require a majority vote. After a majority vote is reached, the game is in twilight. In twilight, voting has no effect, but players (including any about to be lynched) may continue to post. Once the thread is locked, night begins.
11) Deadlines will be imposed at the mod’s discretion. If no one has been lynched by deadline, day will end with a no-lynch and the game will proceed to night.
12) Alignment, role, and abilities will be revealed on death.
13) Players are to treat this game as a commitment. In extenuating circumstances, a player may request temporary replacement by PMing the mod (preferably in advance).
Failure to abide by the above rules may result in reprimand, replacement, or modkill. Please do not hesitate to PM a mod with any questions.
Certain roles may allow some of the above rules to be circumvented, as specifically indicated. (I don’t think I’m revealing too much by saying that a role exists which allows rule 1 to be broken.) If you feel a mistake has been made or you’re just not sure about something, feel free to PM.
