Spoiler: Ruleset
The Rules
  • ONE: FUNDAMENTALS
    • All site-wide rules apply. Read and respect them.
    • There is no personal communication outside the forum postings (regarding this game) unless your role specifically allows it.
    • Do not quote your Role PM or any private communication (either real or fabricated) with the moderator, co-moderator, backup-moderator, or fellow players. Paraphrasing your Role PM is acceptable.
    • Be courteous and respectful to all your fellow players and the moderating team.
    • Play to your Win Condition.
  • TWO: DAY PHASE
    • Each Day Phase shall have a deadline.
    • Votes must be in the format of VOTE: PlayerName or
      Vote: PlayerName
      , or they shall not be counted. Abbreviating someone's name is acceptable, so long as I can discern who you were voting for without trouble. If I think it should count as a vote, it will.
    • Unvoting is not required, but is much appreciated.
    • Please post at least once every 36 hours. If you fail to do so, you will be prodded. If you fail to respond to said prod within 36 hours, you will be replaced.
    • If you get three or more prods, or fail to respond to a prod by posting in thread within 36 hours (or by PM if at Night), I will begin seeking for a replacement (this means the third prod functions like a notice that you are racing the search for your replacement.)
    • A deadline extension may or may not be granted; just ask.
    • Votes and Unvotes shall not count in Twilight.
  • THREE: CAPITAL OFFENSES
    • Do not quote your Role PM or any private communication (either real or fabricated) with the moderator, co-moderator, or backup-moderator. Paraphrasing your Role PM is acceptable.
    • There is to be no personal communication outside the forum postings (regarding this game) unless your role specifically allows it.
    • The following is a list of outlawed shenanigans:
      • Using invisible text, codes, cryptography, etc.
      • Editing your posts (if you have the power to do so)
      • Insulting other players
      • Quoting any PTs you may have access to
    • If any of these offences are committed, I have the right to force-replace you from the game, or, with Listmod permission, modkill you.
  • FOUR: MISCELLANEOUS
    • This is a game. Have fun, and keep the game fun for other people. This might be the most important rule.
    • My mod colour is
      #FFBF00
      ; don't use it.
    • Feel free to address me in-thread, but if there is a large egregious mistake please PM Hectic. Small matters like errors in the votecount can be posted in-thread.
    • I have the final say on any issue.
    • I have the right to edit this Ruleset at any time.


Setup
5 Mafia

15 Town


Nightless. Mafia have daytalk.
Each day, players vote to give someone a scroll containing a death curse. That person must pass the scroll to a second person, who must pass it to a third. Then, the 3 players who came in contact with the scroll simultaneously die and are flipped.
Mafia have a factional 1-shot private dayvig that they may use at any time. It may not be used on a player currently holding a scroll.

Scroll phases repeat until mafia have parity or majority over the town, or all the mafia are dead.


Spoiler: Setup Specific Day Rules
  • The dayvig shot will extend any deadline by 48 hours.
  • Once you have reached a simple majority to curse (half of all living players plus one) that person shall receive the scroll.
  • If town fails to curse someone by the end of the 7 day deadline, mafia will pick who becomes cursed.
  • Once a player is cursed, they will have 2 days to pick a player they'd like to pass the scroll to, using a vote.
  • I'll allow placeholder votes using the HURT: tags in the event the player is afraid they'll forget to pass it on. The person it's passed to will simply default to the placeholder they've put down earlier.
  • If no placeholder vote was used, I'll pick the last living/non-cursed player the scroll bearer has voted in the game to receive the scroll.
  • If the above is not applicable, I'll allow mafia to pick.

Hectic rubbed his hands together in anticipation. It was his first year anniversary on the job, and he was about to unleash his greatest game yet on the world. He'd triple checked the role PMs 7 times, and was positive he'd got everything right.

He leaned back, relaxed, and waited for everyone to confirm.

His thoughts were interrupted as Isis stormed into his cubicle.

"Isis! I had a feeling I was due for a promotion. I'm guessing you want me to moderate Team Mafia?"

Isis sighed. "You've sent NorweiganboyEE a scum role PM, and he's not even in your game."

"R-really? Sorry about that, I don't, uh, I really don't know how that slipped through the cracks..." Hectic mumbled.

"You've also given half of your players mod permissions. Somebody's plagiarised post with Sans playing the trombone. Fix this mess, Hectic, we don't pay you to be incompetent."

Hectic frowned. Perhaps moderating wasn't as easy as the listmods had advertised it to be.

Hey everybody!

I felt like this was a bit townsided when I reviewed it but I let it pass anyways. We're good if we just don't throw. VOTE: Fidget for hammering the game before I could /out. Pooky dragged me into this game.

There will probably be pedits and I won't read them
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

My understanding is that scum get one day vig you can’t shoot a scroll holder.
We get three flips at once.
That occur over a 7 day voting phase.
Then 2 baton passes for an additional 6 days of content.
3 flips repeat.
No scum NK?

Bell's towngame consists of quite a fair bit of IIoA tho so this is probably slightly town!AI if anything

He doesn’t post much.
And the game’s unique mechanic makes sure that he gets a fair shake at hunting if he’s town this game,

Win/win

He’ll probably just throw the scroll in my face tho.
