[01] VOTING METHOD: Votes must be in bold or in vote tags. example:
Vote: reinoe
or
VOTE: reinoeIf you do not bold your vote or place in a tage, it will not be counted. You do have to place votes on their own line but you do not have to unvote before casting another vote.
[02] LYNCH: Lynching will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, any attempts to unvote will be unheeded.
[03] NO LYNCH: You may vote: no lynch – unless it is deadline, majority votes of this kind are necessary to end the day without a death.
[04] DEADLINE: This game will have mandatory deadlines of, at most, 1 week (7 days). As the game whittles down its living membership deadlines may grow shorter. If I deem it necessary a player being replaced may extend the deadline.
[05] DEADLINE LYNCH RULES: A majority of votes are needed to lynch. If no player has a majority of votes cast against them when the deadline hits there will be no lynch. A no lynch can be achieved by half of the living players voting for a no lynch.
[06] NIGHT CHOICES: Night choices will be expected within 48 hours. If you do not inform me of a night choice you will forfeit it.
[07] LURKING AND NOT POSTING: Lurking is not an acceptable strategy in this game. Anyone who goes more than 48 hours without posting, without advance warning, will be prodded. Failure to post in the 24 hours following a prod will result in a player being replaced. Anyone receiving three prods will be force replaced. Mafia is a social contract.
[08] OUT OF THREAD COMMUNICATION: The game is not to be discussed outside the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so – and then only in the manner stated in your role PM. Don’t quote any out-of-thread communications regarding this game in the thread, this includes role PMs.
[09] BAH POSTS ARE NOT ALLOWED: Once your dead, you're dead.
[10] TOO CLEVER BY HALF RULE: No small or hidden text or obscure codes. Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts either.
[11] VACATION? LIMITED ACCESS? If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in this game thread. Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.
[12] FALLIBILITY CLAUSE: Unlike other mods I am fallible. Please point out any mistakes I make.
[13] QUESTIONS: If you have any questions at all, please PM me or post the question in the thread.
[14] HUSH NOW, QUIET NOW: Excessive use of CAPS POSTING or spamming posts will not be allowed and may result in replacement or warning.
[15] GAMBLERS ANON: No bets, deals, promises, etc are allowed. Depending on the severity of one you may be modkilled or forceably replaced or warned.
[16] IF IT QUACKS LIKE A DUCK: If you fake breaking a rule, it could result in the same punishment as actually breaking the rule.
[17] FUN: Remember, it’s a game and it’s supposed to be fun. Be nice to your fellow players and your mod.
[18] I've reserved this color for any purposes I might choose. Don't use it or anything similar to it. If you use this color or if I deem you're impersonating the mod you may be warned, force replaced or modkilled.
[19] A GOD AM I: I can modify this ruleset at my discretion.
