When the game begins, the cards numbered 1-76 (as listed on the 28th of March, 2016 revision of the Life and Death page) are shuffled, and three are given to each player. Each card represents an alignment and role.
You will receive a PM informing you of the three cards you have been dealt.
Once the PM's go out, you will have 48 hours to decide one card to represent your alignment, and a second, different card to represent your role. The third card, if the game's setup is valid, will be publicly discarded.
The game will be considered valid if a majority of alignments selected are town, and at least one alignment selected is permanently anti-town. If an invalid setup is created, we will try again, starting with a new shuffle and deal.
Here is a sample Vanilla Townie Role PM:

Communication outside the thread (if your role specifically allows it) is allowed until the game begins.
You may not quote private communication of any kind. This includes moderator-supplied information (either real or fabricated) of any kind. Paraphrasing (for role claims, etc.) is acceptable.
There is to be NO personal communication outside of the forum postings unless your role PM specifically allows it.
Activity/Prods/Replacements
Prods of missing players will be issued after 48 hours of no activity.
A prodded player has 24 hours to respond to the prod, after which time a replacement search will begin. The prodded player may re-enter the game so long as no replacement has been found.
A player who has been prodded 3 times is subject to possible replacement without further notice.
If you anticipate being unavailable for more than 48 hours please PM me or post in the thread to declare V/LA.
I reserve the right to force replace players who need extensively long V/LA at my own discretion.
Deadlines
This game will have two week Day deadlines, and 48 hour Night deadlines.
Extensions are given only in extreme circumstances.
If you have a role with a Night action your choices are due to me by the posted deadline. If I do not receive your choice via PM by the posted deadline you will forfeit your actions.
Player Actions/Voting/Player Death
A simple majority of all living players must agree on one person (via voting) for a Lynch to occur (simple majority = ½ # of living players +1, rounded down). If no one has a simple majority of votes at deadline a No Lynch will occur.
Votes must be bolded or use the [.vote] tags to be counted (e.g.
Vote: Player
or VOTE: Player).
Unvotes are not necessary before changing votes.
You may
Vote: No Lynch
- a simple majority of these vote types are required to send the game to Night phase without a Lynch.
Votes made using nicknames or abbreviations will be counted at my discretion. Fake vote gambits should be executed at your own peril. If I think its a vote, then its a vote.
Miscellaneous
I will use
Bolded Dark Blue
(#004080) for Mod posts. Don't impersonate me. No invisible/small/encrypted text is allowed.
Any situation not explicitly covered above is subject to my discretion and will be handled as I see fit on a case-by-case basis.
Rolling for which set of cards each player gets. I'll roll a bunch of 9 sided dice that correspond to each set number and give them out in playerlist order.
...and at this point we are guaranteed to have a valid setup on our first try which is pretty nice. I've come to expect at least a couple re-rolls every time by now.
I'll be in another state in my country to visit my aunt for a week, where the internet isn't as fast as it is where I live.
Do you expect to be able to check in to the site over this time? I'm ok with a long term V/LA, but if you don't think you can make a meaningful post at least every 48 hours over that timeframe I think its worth considering replacing out.
haha geez. I sat at work all night yesterday waiting for these lynches to happen and then they come the day I leave. Looks like everything is caught up. I'll check in tomorrow morning too. thanks!
