I reserve the right to change any of the following rules at any time. I will also inform the players in thread and via PM in the unlikely scenario in which this is required.
This list is not necessarily all-inclusive. If you're unsure whether or not something is allowed, please PM me about it.
Disregarding the rules may result in consequences up to and including modkill and/or force-replacement.
If you need to talk to me in thread,
please use bold.
Additionally, feel free to PM me with any questions you might have.
DO NOT TALK ABOUT OTHER ONGOING GAMES IN THIS GAME.
I've been seeing this happen in a lot of games recently. Don't do it -- it can ruin not only this game for others, but also other games. I won't be lenient about this rule in particular.
Please do not use hidden or encrypted text.
Play to win.
Please treat your fellow players with respect. At the same time, please try not to take comments personally whenever possible.
Please allow for your fellow players to go V/LA.
Please keep me in the loop about your own V/LA status.
Our color is purple (#8000FF). Avoid using it, or I shall subject you to righteous justice by throwing you out of the workshop. Hahaha!
Have Fun!
Gameplay
The following vote formats are the de-facto standard on the site (aka votes should be enclosed with vote tags or bold tags. I don't care about caps/spelling/etc.)
VOTE: Flay Gunnar
Vote: Flay Gunnar
Unvotes are
not
required.
If it appears to be a vote for a player, I will treat it as a vote for a player. Please don't attempt to fool me or other players with regard to fake votes. Do not put votes in spoiler tags.
A lynch is achieved when half plus one of the current number of living players are voting for the same player. If this does not occur by deadline, a No Lynch will occur -- there is no plurality lynch in this game.
Twilight is the time between the 'hammer' vote being cast and the beginning of the night phase. All living players, including the most recent lynchee, may talk during this time.
Players' alignments will be revealed on death.
When killed, a player may make one informationless 'bah' post at the beginning of the next day phase and must be silent thereon until the conclusion of the game.
Please submit all night actions either via
tags in your private topic if you have one, or by PM if you do not.
If you have a night action and do not submit one, you will not take an action. I will not resolve your action on a random person.
Role distribution is guaranteed to be random, determined with the aid of random.org
Deadlines
Day 1 will be exactly two weeks long. Future days will be exactly 10 days (240 hours) long.
Nights will be exactly two days (48 hours) long.
Players will be prodded after 48 hours of inactivity during the day, excepting V/LA circumstances.
Failure to pick up a prod in 24 hours, or receiving 3 prods over the course of the game, will result in replacement. Asking for replacement will result in replacement.

This setup is based upon the PS2 game Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis. This link may be useful to help determine context throughout the game.
The following is public knowledge: the setup consists of a
Town
faction versus a
single
groupscum faction, where "groupscum" is defined as having more than one player. It is not public knowledge whether other alignments exist in the game.
This setup is NOT bastard.
This is a role madness setup. The exact definition of this is not public knowledge, but it should give you an idea of what to expect.
For this game, the assignment of alignment to flavor is entirely random: think how it would be if a bunch of people at Al-Revis Academy physically got together and played a game of Mafia. Don't try to flavor break this, or tears of blood shall stream from my eyes.
Here is a sample role PM:
Flay Gunnar, Town 1-shot Unlynchable Moderator
Abilities:
You're the mod:
You're tasked with rolling alignments, distributing role cards, doing votecounts and flips, and making sure no intruders come barging in to your workshop.
HA! THIS IS GETTING INTERESTING!:
On the verge of death? Who cares, it's more interesting that way!
The first time you would be lynched, you will simply exclaim that this is "getting interesting" and get out of it somehow. You will be protected from all lynch attempts henceforth for the rest of that day phase.
Win condition:
You win when all threats to the town are eliminated.
Role PMs are going out now! Please confirm via PM stating your alignment, and that you understand your role. The game will begin when 11/13 have confirmed.
"So let me explain why you're all here. The other day, I was thinking that it would be fun to, rather than having a test of strength for once, have a battle of minds!"
Half the people in the room groaned. "Again? Flay can come up with the weirdest ideas sometimes."
"Maybe so. But this one's different! You see, this time, some of you have been tasked with killing all the other people in the room. You have to figure out which before it's too late! Sounds intriguing, doesn't it?"
Some seemed to take it seriously, others just rolled their eyes. One person spoke up. "Y-you can't actually be serious, can you? Killing all the other people in the room?"
"Of course I am! Just you wait and see!"
For whatever reason, at this point, it became obvious everyone had stopped taking me seriously. I shall not let that happen! It took some serious string-pulling for me to get all the classes called off for a day to arrange this, and I intend to make the most of it! (And before you ask why I wouldn't just do it on a weekend, that wouldn't be any fun, would it?)
"Oh, just be quiet and play along for now."
It is now Day 1! With 13 alive, it takes 7 to lynch. Deadline is November 12, 12:30 GMT-7 or in (expired on 2015-11-12 12:30:00). Those who have not confirmed have 24 hours as of this post to do so.
Presently, someone started singing. She had a voice that would make even
me
fall head over heels.
... Wait, it's Nikki? OK fuck this, I would die inside if someone with such a beautiful voice was killed. I hereby declare her innocent from this point forward!
@mod can you delete post 437, that was not meant for this game
I don't really like deleting player posts, so i put them in spoilerboxes for now until i talk with pie about it
Edit: Ok talked with pie about it, message has been removed.
