Rules
: Influenced and possibly even adjusted from people like MeMe, Dragon Phoenix, and SaveTheDragons.
[1] Each day you may try to lynch somebody. If more than half the people alive at the beginning of the day are voting for somebody, that person will be lynched. You may choose to vote no lynch. See also the special rules.
[2] Please
bold
your votes and unvotes as in
vote: Thok
. I would appreciate it if you include the name of any person you unvote, but I do not require it.
[3] No talking outside the thread during the day. You may only talk outside the thread at night if it is part of your role.
[4] Do not edit your posts. Do not use code=black tags or size=normal tags. Do not hack into mafiascum's php code in order to install invistext or spoiler tags; moreover if somebody does so, do not use invistext or spoiler tags.
[5] Do not quote the mod. Do not fakequote the mod.
[6] Once you are dead, you are dead. You may post a simple "Bah!" post, but no game related content.
[7] Try to be relatively civil to each other. I know you're trying to kill each other, but that's no reason to insult somebody's mother.
[8] I am the mod, but I do occasionally make mistakes. (Shock! Dismay!) If you think I have made a mistake, please send me a PM, or post in the thread.
[9] See special rules for handling vote counts.
[10] I reserve the right to modkill at my discretion (above and beyond other rules). I don't plan on using this power unless something strange happens.
Special rules
(specific for this game).
1. I will try to post a vote count every day at 7:00 pm Pacific Standard Time (GMT -8 for those not in the US). For my purposes, a real day is the 24 hour period between when two consecutive vote counts would be posted. Each vote count will include a running count of how many posts you have remaining.
2. Each game day you are limited to 15 posts total. Each real day, you are limited to 2 posts total.
3. If you violate rule 2, you will be modkilled. The alignment of modkilled players will be revealled at the end of a day.
4. If you are modkilled, stop talking. Making more than 3 posts in a real day or 16 posts in a game day will be severely frowned upon and will result in you being banned from any future games modded by me. In addition, I reserve the right to edit any post that would result in a modkill.
5. If you have used 15 posts, your vote is locked in, even if you later modkill yourself. Modkilling in this way will not affect the number of votes needed to achieve a lynch.
6. The day will end under the following circumstances
a. A lynch is reached normally
b. Everybody has used all 15 posts or has been modkilled
c. No nonmoderator posts have appeared in 3 real days
d. Enough votes have been locked in that a lynch is inevitable (and nobody else can be lynched)
In the case of b or c, anybody tied for the largest number of votes will be lynched. If no lynch is the sole vote leader, nobody will be lynched.
7. If you desire somebody be prodded, please let me know.
8. Night will last 72 hours (3 real days). If you have night choices and don't submit them, I will use random.org to submit them for you. In a fit of generosity, I will also send a PM informing you of your targets in this case.
9. The town win condition is
You win when all scum are dead and at least one member of the town is alive.
I replaced into Chess Mafia for 6 months, and all I got was a win and this lousy sig.
