RULES

Spoiler:

All Site-wide Game Rules are in effect.

*

This is my color.

You are free to use any other color you want, as long as it doesn't become obnoxious.
* You are expected to be an active participant in this game. Players who have not posted for 2 days [48 hours] will be prodded on request.
* After 3 days [72 hours], if not already requested and if not on V/LA, players will be officially prodded for inactivity.
* If, at any time, a player has received 3 prods, or enough time has elapsed since any prod has been sent, I will automatically start searching for a replacement.
* If you would like to request replacement or declare V/LA at any time, please PM me or post in-thread.

* If you have a personal problem with another player's activity/posting, please PM me.

* Days will be 2 weeks [14 days] in length. Deadline exceptions will only be made in extremely rare circumstances.
* Nights will be 2 days [48 hours] in length. Night deadline exceptions will only be made to accomodate Nighttime replacements.

* Votes will only be counted if they are in a format such as

Vote: Maestro

or VOTE: Maestro.

* You MAY vote for the option to "No Lynch".
* If "No Lynch" has the most votes at deadline or receives a majority at any point, there will be No Lynch.
* Also, if no player has reached majority vote by deadline, there will be No Lynch.

* Upon being Lynched or dying overnight, players may make one "Bah!"-type post after they are officially dead. This post may not contain game-related information or any knowledge they may have of the game's setup or the other players. This rule will be enforced by a Modkill or other action that would harm the offending player's faction. (e.g. Deus Ex Roleblock, Insta-Night, etc.)

AND FINALLY:

I am aware that I make mistakes. Please PM me about any I may make or address me in bold in-thread.
Do not hash out issues with me in-thread unless the entire playerlist would benefit.

EDIT: Klazam replaces Xegarus, effective immediately.

Just so players understand procedure - the OP has been updated to reflect the replacement while making sure that the players can identify who replaced whom. All future Votecounts will reflect the replacement, but for simplicity's sake will do so without identifying the player who was replaced.

OP and pagetop updated with Votecount.

Please note I am adding a rule to the OP: three V/LA's which are each more than 48 hours long or any number of V/LA's that total half of the current Day phase will result in a force-replacement on the offending player. You will also be subject to the penalties described in the Newbie Queue for "flaking" from a game, which is meant less as punishment and more as a reminder to only sign up for games when you have the time to honor the commitment that a game requires.

[Maestro]

OP and pagetop updated with Votecount.

@mod is Richard getting replaced?

richardfrost went on V/LA before the rules change regarding V/LA's. If he remains absent for the rest of the Day phase, he will receive a Nightstart prod. If he does not respond to that prod as per the rules in the OP, he will be replaced.

THE DECIDING VOTE WAS PLACED HERE:

##VOTE: JEBUS

Since I screwed the tags up >_>

Jebus has been Lynched Day 1. He was the

Town Cop

.
Night 1 begins now. Deadline for Night 1 Actions is in (expired on 2013-05-14 04:09:00).

[Maestro]

Because your Moderator is suffering from a migraine and is in extreme pain right now, and because your Moderator is well aware that none of you wish to wait 14 or so hours while he sleeps off said pain and comes back online to unlock the thread, and because your Moderator has received all Night Actions and deadline isn't that far off, I have made the conscious decision to unlock the thread and start Day 2 several hours earlier than originally intended.

Rest assured that if the structure of your daily life is greatly infringed upon by this debaucherous breach of decorum, you may PM your Moderator with words of hate. Wishes of well-being are also readily accepted and will net you brownie points - as well as MafiaScum Tokens, redeemable at your local pawn shop for...nothing of great value.

Shadi1337 has died Night 1. He was a

Vanilla Townie

Deadline for Day 2 is in ... (expired on 2013-05-28 01:45:00)

A fine lesson in why NOT to EVER vote without some kind of absolute certainty in LyLo...I was seriously biting my fucking nails that last page.
You two were almost cruel with how long you sat there and waited when you were both online and knew you could quickhammer.

[Maestro]

Yup Haha, those last two Lynches I was literally watching the thread when hammer went down.

by the way, you don't need to bold posts to me in Endgame.....

[Maestro]

actually, I don't know how some Mods do it but I read the entire thread

so even if something weren't noted I'd probably catch it but, meh

[Maestro]

that's the Newbie Town PR metagame around here too, to some extent

[Maestro]

tanks guys, but I always see room for improvement

P.S. post-game discussion continues for as long as you all want, neither I or singer are going to lock the thread till it's finally moved to the Newbie Archives in a month or two
