Don't quote it, especially private ones. That means role PMs.
Private communication.
Only use the threads I provide. Don't PM other players, use other PTs for talking about this game, or use any other medium to communicate about the game to other players. I'm fine if you mention the votecount in-thread.
Games.
You're playing this one. Play to win it.
Cryptography.
I don't like it. Don't hash your posts or use a Caesarean cypher or anything like that.
Small text.
Don't use it. Anything smaller than the Small size will get bumped up in size, except for tags.
Games of chance.
While this setup is based on rolling dice, keep in mind that provable RNG is still prohibited.
And yes, you may claim that you rolled whatever you like. The setup will be randed from your rolls anyhow.
The L-Word.
Don't use it.
My mod color is
#0FBF15, bold.
You may use colors similar to it, however, using the color itself isn't neat.
My flavor color
is
#888888, italicized
. This will denote information that is not necessary to read to play the game, but will improve your immersion should you read it.
After death
you are permitted one contentless bah post. Posting content in a bah post, making multiple bah posts, or bahposting in PTs will get you warned and the bah censored.
Any questions?
Ask. Please use PMs, though — that guarantees that I see it and that any potentially sensitive information is kept sensitive.
Ballot Counting
VOTE: Cook
or VOTE: Cook to cast. UNVOTE: or
UNVOTE:
without a name on the inside is fine, same with including the vote name. You may use nicknames or shortenings, so long as it's clear who you're referring to
If I think it counts, it counts.
If I can't tell who you're referring to, it won't.
Hammer by simple majority.
Once majority is reached, no new or changed votes will be permitted.
You may cast a vote for no-hammer.
Simple majority
(more than 50% of votes are for it) rules.
Deadlines and Timing
Days last
seven
days, nights last
two
, with the exception of the first day, which lasts
ten.
Once a hammer vote has been cast, we enter a phase of Twilight, in which you may continue posting until the flip happens.
Any posts made post-flip will be redacted.
Unusual to me, even if I am watching the thread when hammer occurs, twilight is guaranteed to last one hour.
Days will end faster if a hammer happens.
Nights will end faster if all players vote to nightskip.
Prods, Replacements, and Activity
Prods will be issued every 72 hours without game-advancing content. Even something as simple as "Cook is scum" or "Let's vote Cook" counts as advancing content.
If you are prodded, you have 24 hours to respond or I will search for a replacement.
If you are prodded 3 times throughout the game, I'll search for a replacement.
If you are on V/LA, instead, I will poke you every 72 hours. Two pokes is a prod.

The Setup
Everyone will get the same role PM:
3d20
.
Once everyone has confirmed, I will take the dice rolls and generate
one role per confirmation
.
I reserve the right to make any edits to dice rolls that I wish with the intent of making a more "balanced" game.
I will try to refrain from doing so but if there's a
really
broken role combination like Serial Killer Vigilante Roll Twice (Multitasking and Rampaging) then I will change it. This may also be used to merge Masonries with only one member.
After all roles are generated, I will randomize the setup and give you your second role PMs. Confirm with those and we'll start the game rolling.
Clarifications
This list will get updated as questions get posed, but a few off the top of my head:
Jester does
not
end the game if eliminated.
Cultings resolve after kills. If you die and are culted in the same night you will retain your original alignment.
Cult Leader is the only member of the Cult capable of performing the recruitment. If the Cult Leader dies the Cult will remain alive but powerless. Culting does not vanillaize.
Town and 3p members are always able to be culted. Groupscum are able to be culted if there are no other members of their team left alive. Atheists (Mason-type who know they aren't Cult) cannot be culted.
Neighborizers each have their own neighborhoods.
Parity Cop's unmodified ability is "At night you may send me the name of a player. Assuming no interference with your action, you will learn if your target's alignment matches your previous target's."
Cultings resolve before investigations. If you investigate someone the night they are culted you will see them as Cult.

The Setup Phase Begins!
Roll PMs have been sent. Awaiting all 13. (13/13)

All Roll PMs collected! I have generated a setup out of those rolls. Changes
did
have to be made for balance – FIVE different rolls on FIVE different rolecards were fudged to create a more theoretically balanced environment. These changes will be made public at the end of the game.
A reminder that these generated rolecards will be shuffled before the game begins – you may not get your own 3d20 cast back as your role. But it should help you setup speculate
