"Back in my day we had 12 players and we had to walk 15 miles up hill both ways in the snow to get to the gallows!"
The Rules, Stolen from shaft.ed, TSQ, Mr. Stoofer, Flameaxe, Jdodge:
00. I reserve the right to edit these rules at any time should something truly unexpected occur.
01. All votes must be made bold or made using the vote tag. Unvoting is not required but I heavily prefer it. Any attempt at trick voting or disguising your vote will be prohibited. If its treated as a vote and I think its a vote, its a a vote!
02. A majority of votes is required to lynch. If there is a lynch, no amount of bitching will prevent the lynch from happening. Not even a short necked giraffe can survive the noose
03. When you live, live well. Live long. Prosper. When you're dead, shut up. Don't post in the games thread. Lie in a grave/furnace/corpse pile. Rot.
04. All days have a 15 day deadline. All nights have a 72 hour deadline.
05. You can vote for a no lynch to occur during the day. Simply post
VOTE: No Lynch. Should this vote reach a majority, it will happen. If no majority is reached during a day then there will be a no lynch when that day ends.
06. Quoting or faking any PMs you receive from the mod will get you modkilled and blacklisted from any games I am running now or in the future. You may paraphrase anything in the PM. If you are worried you are quoting more so then paraphrasing you should probably PM me before I modkill you
07. If a player goes 48 real life hours without posting, they may be prodded at my discretion. If you notice someone doing this and I don't seem to catch it, feel free to pm me or post about wanting that person prodded in thread. If the prodded player doesn't respond to the prod via pming me a response or post in thread in 48 hours later, then they will be replaced. If the player makes little posts that dodge prod and don't represent anything relative to the game in next 48 hours are also considered as "Prodded". Thus I may warn such players privately and or force replace them. You are more than welcome to lynch them so that I don't have to wait for them to break this rule completely. Or so I do not have to replace said player. Players are allowed to formally request replacement should something come up in real life. I will not hold it against you and much prefer you request it, rather than just disappear without notice
08. Don't talk to each other outside of the game thread about the game unless your role says you can. If you disobey this rule, you will be modkilled or force replaced pending the severity of your actions
09. No small or invisible text. Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts if you have the power to do so
10. This is a game. Have fun and respect the other players. Don't be a Dick. If you feel you are being mistreated in thread and I don't seem to catch it, feel free to PM me about it. True insults or personal attacks will not be tolerated. Offenders will be warned once by PM and once in thread if the mod deems your behavior towards your fellow players inappropriate. If you continue, you will be ModKilled.
11. If it seems like it should be illegal, it probably is. Considering the fact rules sometimes can't cover everything. Please use your common sense. PM me if you think something you are about to do could break the rules or possibly ruin the game.
12. I am human. If I fuck up and make a mod error that personally looses you the game, then I will give you a technical auto win at the end of the game to make up for it
13. I respect anonymity on the internet and in mafia. If there is a scum group with a quick topic I will
NOT
be making the thread public at the end of the game. It is that scum team's decision as to whether or not that thread will be made public at the end of the game
14. If I have to modkill a player, the following will occur. If that player was town, the day will immediately end as though they were the lynch. If that player was non-town, the day will continue after their lynch. Basically the worst case scenario will occur for their side. Please don't make me have to invoke this rule or any modkill related rules. I don't want to do it, I felt bad just writing those rules
15. The game will start with Night 0. This phase will last for 48 hours. During this phase only night talk related action can be performed. During night 0, you must PM a confirm to me saying you received and understand your role during Pregame, or i will look to replace you during day 1
16. If you have a night action and think you will be V/la during the night cycle, you can send the action to me in advance
17. If you have a night action and have already sent a target for your action, you can change your target before the night is over by sending me a message with the new choice
18. If you have a night action and forget to send me a choice, you get nothing! Good day sir!
19. Posting in the game thread can be done during twilight by any living player including the person who was just lynched, up until the mod locks the thread
20. If you are gonna go on V/la please post it in bold in thread or add it to your control panel/profile setting so that I am aware of it. You won't be prodded while you are on V/la. Rule 7 will mean nothing to you
21. I may attempt to give ambiguous flavor during the game to some degree during lynch scenes related to
Back in my day...
things. This flavor will not be meant to indicate the alignment of any living player. Using this info to help you figure out who is what = DUMB!
22. In the event a zombie plague or some other disaster makes me unable to fulfill my mod duties, your backup mod will be: Ether. Please inform her of my untimely disappearance and she will continue the game to the best of her abilities
23. This game followings the normal guidelines set for
