WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
”He took a twenty-five cent piece out of his pocket. There, too, in tiny clear lettering, the same slogans were inscribed, and on the other face of the coin the head of Big Brother. Even from the coin the eyes pursued you. On coins, on stamps, on the covers of books, on banners, on posters, and on the wrappings of a cigarette Packet -- everywhere. Always the eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you. Asleep or awake, working or eating, indoors or out of doors, in the bath or in bed -- no escape. Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimetres inside your skull.”
BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU
The Party (Town) must seek out and save the members of the Revolution (Mafia) by sending them to the Ministry of Love (miniluv in Newspeak). The Revolution, as misguided as they may be, seek to eliminate key members of The Party and “fix” this already perfect world. Be wary of Thoughtcrime, it will also get you sent to the Ministry of Love where none return from… because they don’t exist…
“Thoughtcrime is death. Thoughtcrime does not entail death, Thoughtcrime is death.... The essential crime that contains all others in itself”
(Portions of game text have been quoted from George Orwell’s
1984

(Rules shamelessly “borrowed” from Someone who stole them with vengeance from Meme)
"Nights" will last around 3 RL days. The deadline will be posted. If you need an extension, just tell me, I might need one someday myself.
Days will last as long as they need to. If discussion lags, I will impose a deadline. If discussion picks up, the deadline will be rescinded.
Votes must be in bold. If you do not bold your vote, it will not be counted.
Once a player has reached the necessary majority to lynch, the day is over. Unvoting them will not save their life.
No lynches are allowed, they require the same votes as a lynch. Any player who votes no lynch goes home and may not post for the rest of the day unless that player reaches half the majority vote for a lynch.
The game is not to be discussed outside of the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so. You button your lip, or I button it for you.
Once your death scene has been posted, unless you're not dead, you’re dead. You will be told if you're not dead. Once your dead DO NOT POST ANYTHING until the game is over.
Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts. No matter what stupid thing you've done. Why can't you just THINK? I mean, come on!
Don’t quote any PMs or e-mails from me, lest I kill you.
If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. The first time you miss a deadline, no choice will be made. The second time you miss a deadline, I will make a choice for you. This usually involves you being unhappy.
If you're going to be gone any amount of time, let everyone know.
The mod is god. Any mistakes such as inaccurate vote counts are obviously YOUR mistake. Please point out your mistakes so I can correct them. And if I ask you to eat play-doh, you say "WHAT COLOR, MOD!" Sacrifices of small woodland animals accepted. (Incredibly I agree with all of this. Then again: we are infallible).

PBuG has a day or so to confirm then I'll let our first replacement in line know there's an opening. If anyone knows anything about him/her let me know.

PBuG has been replaced with Scalebane. As soon as he confirms we will begin this endeavor of futility.

As the perfect sun rises above your perfect life you rise to realize how much you love the life you have been given and Big Brother who gave it to you. Instantly the morning exercise routine is interrupted by a warning that you are always being watched. Something must be wrong... On your way to your doubleplus good workplace you see the problem: The dead body of
Quagmire
is being taken away from the steps of miniluv (Ministry of Love). A revolution must be at hand. The officers on the street are giving him a solemn farewell. He must have been a
Thought Police Officer
.
With this newest development a revolution is obviously at hand. Close Party members have been assembled to weed out the uprising and retrain them. The Party must come to a majority decision of who the culprit may be.
It is Day 1. Eleven alive, six to retrain (lynch).
