Game Rules (stolen from LlamaFluff with modifications)
[01] VOTING METHOD: Votes must be in bold. example:
Vote: Fishythefish
. Vote tags are a good way of voting. Example:
VOTE: Fishythefish. Unvotes are appreciated, but not compulsory. All votes are counted at my discretion.
[02] LYNCH: Lynching will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, any attempts to unvote will be unheeded.
[03] NO LYNCH: You may vote: no lynch – at least half of the votes are required to end the day without a death.
[04] DEADLINE: This game will have deadlines of 2 weeks. These may be extended in the event of a replacement near deadline, or other exceptional circumstances.
[05] DEADLINE LYNCH RULES: At deadline, a person will be lynched if they have a majority of voters voting for them. That means you can be lynched with just one vote if only one person is voting. If no one has a majority of the votes cast, it is a no-lynch.
[06] NIGHT CHOICES: Night choices will be expected within 72 hours. If you do not inform me of a night choice you will forfeit it. If your night choice is mandatory, it will be randomized.
[07] LURKING AND NOT POSTING: Lurking is not an acceptable strategy in this game. All players are expected to post at least once every 48 hours, and preferably more. Anyone who goes more than 72 hours without posting, without advance warning, will be prodded. Anyone who does it again will be replaced. If your circumstances change and you can no longer commit to this game, please alert the mod - don't just stop posting.
[08] OUT OF THREAD COMMUNICATION: The game is not to be discussed outside the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so – and then only in the manner stated in your role PM. Don’t quote any out-of-thread communications regarding this game in the thread, this includes role PMs.
[09] BAH POSTS ARE ALLOWED: Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead. However, since I love Bah post you may absolutely make one "Bah" post. It should be short and should contain absolutely no game related opinion or information.
[10] TOO CLEVER BY HALF RULE: No small or hidden text or obscure codes. Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts either. If you are doing something unusual, PM me first.
[11] VACATION? LIMITED ACCESS? If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in this game thread, or PM the mod if it is night. Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.
[12] FALLIBILITY CLAUSE: Unlike other mods I am fallible. Please point out any mistakes I make gently. In particular, if I post a vote count that does not accurately reflect your vote, it is your responsibility to correct me -- otherwise your vote may be treated as it appears in the vote count.
[13] QUESTIONS: If you have any questions at all, please PM me or post the question in the thread.
[14] FUN: Remember, it’s a game and it’s supposed to be fun. Be nice to your fellow players and your mod. I have very low tolerance for abusive posts.
[15]
I've reserved this color for any purposes I might choose. Don't use it, please.
The Vanilla Townie role PM is below; at least one player received it.

You win when all threats to the town have been eliminated, and at least one town player lives.
Please confirm in
