Hi, Radja. Re. the first list:

1. Yes, I'll be ready to run the game as soon as it's approved.
   
2. This is a 9-player game.
   
3. I have no backup or co-mod.
   
4. I have previously modded Open 661. Currently I have no other modding commitments and am playing in two games.

My game is already designed, here are the goods.

Rules and Setup

(None of these rules supercede or contradict the Universal Sitewide Rules, all of which are in full force.)

GENERAL RULES

• Orange
  is my color. Avoid using it. Multicolored read lists and possibly some other special cases are fine; use common sense.
  
• Don't discuss the game outside of the game until I say it's over.
  
• Don't flame. Don't harass. Don't use insults that target minority or disadvantaged classes. Attack the slot, not the person. If you have a personal problem with another player, deal with it privately or bring it to the moderator or a site mod.
  
• Don't directly quote, misquote, or pretend to quote private communications from the moderator. You may paraphrase. Specifically do not reference the time stamp on your or anyone else's role PM.
  
• Don't use encryption, tiny/hidden/unreadable text, or anything that could be easily confused for such.
  
• Don't game the rules, pretend to break the rules, or test my limits. I have no patience for this behavior. If you have a question about what is acceptable, ask.
  
• Don't argue with me in public. If you take issue with my moderation, PM me.

VOTING, ABILITIES, AND DEADLINES

Day

• Days will last two real-life weeks (14 days).
  
• During the day, all living players may talk in the game thread and vote for a player to lynch, or vote for no lynch.
  
• Votes can be made using either bolded text of form "
  Vote: <playername>
  " or "
  VOTE: <playername>
  ", or (preferably) the vote tag: "[vote]<playername>[/vote]" or "[v]<playername>[/v]". I will interpret shortened or mistyped player names according to my own discretion. In general, if it looks like a vote, I will probably count it as a vote.
  
• When more than half the votes are for for the same player, that player will be lynched. Everyone (including the lynchee) may continue to post in twilight until I process the lynch.
  
• When at least half the votes are for No Lynch, or when the deadline is reached without a majority, the game will proceed to the night phase without a lynch.
  
• If you have a day ability you wish to use, please submit it via PM.

Night

• Nights will last two real-world days. During the night, if
  every living player
  consents via PM or in a private thread, the game will immediately move to the day phase.
  
• During the night, no one may talk in the public thread.
  
• If you have a personal night ability you wish to use, please submit it via PM. Factional abilities should be submitted in the factional thread.
  
• Unless otherwise specified, use of night abilities is optional, and if not submitted will not occur.

ACTIVITY REQUIREMENTS

• Players who do not post for 48 hours in a game-day will incur a prod.
  
• Players who do not post for 24 hours following a prod will be force-replaced.
  
• Players who incur three prods will be force-replaced.
  
• At my discretion, excessive prod-dodging may result in a mod warning and subsequently in disregard of future prod-dodges.
  
• If for any reason you are temporarily unable to meet these requirements, you may declare V/LA status
  in thread
  and be excused.
  
• If you anticipate being completely unable to post for an extended period, consider voluntarily replacing out.
  
• These are minimal requirements for activity, not recommendations; please keep the game active.

"Hidden" information (result PMs)

The setup is closed, so the distribution of roles is hidden information.

The watcher can get either of the following two result PMs.

If the target is not visited at all, or is only visited by the Ninja:

You did not see anyone visit your target during the night.

If the target is visited by someone other than the Ninja (which in this setup can only be the Strongman):

You saw #NAME visit your target during the night.
