RULES
(based on hascow's and Tarhalindur's sets)
Behavior
(0) Follow the
site rules. That means no discussion of ongoing games especially (exceptions are mod-revealed information; if you are unsure about a specific thing, contact both the mod of the referenced game and this one)
(1) Have fun.
(2) Play to win.
(2b)Claiming a player to be your scum partner is generally considered a direct infraction of rule (2).
(3) I will be posting in dark red. Please don't use dark red, or in colours that are hard to read.
(4) I don't mind profanity, but respect your fellow players.
(5) Quoting of mod communications is
allowed
. However, see Rule (0).
(5b) For this reason, night actions will be acknowledged by quoting the original message back to the sender; any result or answer to questions will be communicated in as simple a full sentence as possible, without any quotes. Warnings will be public.
(6) Don't talk about this game outside the thread unless your role allows, whether you’re dead or not. However, feel free to contact me if you have any questions or a need to vent.
(7) Do not edit or delete your posts if you would otherwise be able to.
Activity Levels and Prods
(8) If a player doesn't post in 72 hours, they will be prodded. In practice, this might not happen on every occasion; please be patient, my schedule is pretty tight.
(9) Players may request a prod on another player at any time, either by PM or by posting in thread. Note that this will not count towards the "three strikes" (see Rule (11)) without 72 hours' inactivity.
(10) Not picking up a prod within 72 hours will result in replacement.
(11) If I have to prod you more than three times in a game-day or more than five times overall, you will be replaced.
(12) If you are on V/LA, please take the time to either post to that effect in-thread or PM me.
Voting, Lynches, and Deadlines
(13) Please vote in bold, such as
If you don't unvote before placing your vote somewhere else, your new vote will not count.
(13b) You may use nicknames and acronyms when voting, as long as it is clear exactly whom you are referring to.
(13c) Please place your votes at the beginning or the end of your posts, in a seperate line, otherwise I may miss it.
(14) I will try to post vote counts on every page. Vote counts will be in seperate posts for clarity, as well as edited into the first post of the page.
(15) A lynch will require the votes of a majority of players (half of all living players plus one). When a majority is reached, no further votes/unvotes will be counted.
(15b) If the game reaches deadline before a majority lynch happens, the player with the most votes at that time will be lynched. In the event of a tie, the player who had the most votes (of those tied) before the tie will be lynched.
(16) Each game day will have a non-negotiable deadline of 3 days+(number of living players)x2 days.
(17) Posting in twilight is acceptable, for both the lynchee and town members. Feel free to post as much or as little as you want of whatever you like.
(18) Once your death scene is posted, you may make only one "bah" post. Make sure it has no game relevant information, or someone in your faction may be punished for the infraction.
Miscellaneous
(19) If you fake breaking a rule, or I percieve you as breaking a rule, it will incur the same punishment as actually breaking the rule.
(20) I'm not infallible. Please be patient if I make mistakes. If you notice something, notify me in-thread, preferably in the following format:
If I have made a major mistake, please be kind and notify me by PM, leave it out of the thread.
(21) For game purposes, my word is sacred, and my decision final. See rule (20).
(22) I reserve the right to add rules if necessary.
Game Specific
(23) The game will have two phases: Day and Twilight.
(23b) Day is defined as the interval starting when the mod declares the start of Day, and ending either when the lynching vote is placed or when deadline hits.
(23c) Twilight is defined as the interval between the end of Day N as per Rule (23b) and the mod's post declaring the start of Day N+1.
(24)Role action submissions will only be accepted during Day. Public results (if any) will be posted between 0 and 24 hours of me opening the PM.
Role resolution:
Immediate actions: alignment investigate (result), kill--within 0-24 hours if public
rest of day actions: protect, roleblock, track, watch, plant evidence (Framer and Undertaker), busdrive--exact time stamps
end of day actions: track (result), watch (result)--after lynch scene
