Primary election season is here in the land of the Federated States of Organized Crime and Lycanthropes and this year's crop of candidates comprise of three liberals, three conservatives and six minor-party candidates. While the minor-party candidates would just love to have the election as is right now and hope for the best in a run-off election, the liberals and conservatives would rather pummel all their opponent party candidates right now in debate and embarrass them off the ballot. Now everyone wants to challenge other candidates in televised debate and embarrass others with their mastery of debate. However, everyone knows that trying to humiliate an opponent in a group debate is not as effective as challenging your opponent to a one-on-one no-holds-barred steel-cage debate.
During each gameday, one player will step up to the podium and challenge an opponent to a government-sponsored debate. The ultimatum has been set. Everyone else must vote to save the challenger or the opponent. Once you have voted for one candidate
Each lynch cycle (8 days) is split into two parts: a challenge period and a voting period. There are two different deadlines that must be met for each cycle. As noted before, there must be one lynch every 8 days*. There is also a deadline to challenge. There must be one challenge within 4-5 days of the last lynch. If no one has volunteered to challenge by the deadline to challenge, the person who has the least recent post at that point will be forced to challenge. The deadline to challenge has already been randomized and will always occur at some moment on the 4th or 5th day of the cycle. A person who has been forced to challenge must name his/her opponent within 36 hrs of being chosen or else s/he will be automatically lynched. Basically, if you don't post or participate within deadlines (unless advance notification has been given), you will likely be killed. If you do not think you can post every 24 hrs, this game is probably not for you.
