The Rules

(Stolen from SpeedyKQ and edited)

[1] DO NOT quote your role PMs directly – you must paraphrase the wording. If you are unsure as to what is acceptable, ask me via PM.
[2] Your votes and unvotes must be in bold (

Vote: RickyPonting

)
[3] You don't have to unvote before you change your vote, but I'd really like it if you did. (

unvote, vote: GlennMcGrath

) Unvotes must be in bold.
[4] You may not discuss the game outside this thread unless your role permits you to. If someone approaches you to discuss the game without me telling you they can do so please report it to me.
[5] Once you are dead you may not post. This means no “bah” post.

[6] You may not vote No Revive. Someone must be revived every day. If no majority is reached by deadline then the person with the most votes will be revived.

[7] Days 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 will be deadlined to 2 weeks each. From then on each following day will be deadlined to 3 weeks each. These deadlines will not be extended for any reason other than a Mafiascum server crash or similar.

[8] Leave any grudges at the door. Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
[9] Codes, invisible type, small letters or other similar techniques to conceal content of your posts are forbidden.
[10] If you want a player prodded, please request so in thread. I will also prod any players if and when I feel it is appropriate.
[11] I am the mod, and my word is final. I will do my utmost to act in the spirit of the game, and if you want to address something with me, I'll listen, but please do so via PM. But in the end, what I say goes.
[12] Play to your win condition, but don’t be a twat. I, the mod, am the sole judge of twattery in this game. If you think you might be about to be a twat, check with me first.
[13] Have fun!
[14]The tags are mine. Don't use them.

Sample Vanilla Townie PM

At least one player received the following role PM:

Welcome to Reverse Mafia!

You are a

Townie

with no extraordinary powers. If you are alive during the day you may vote (with the exception of Days 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75, where everyone may vote). If you are in limbo, you must work to root out the scum and ensure that town players are revived.

You win when either all of the pro-town players have been revived (it is not required that all pro-town players survive after being revived though), a majority of the total pro-town players are alive, or all mafia dead.

[ChannelDelibird]

I will send out role PMs shortly. You will be required to confirm by PM.

Update:

all role PMs are now out. The mafia may talk during the confirmation stage. Once I receive all 13 confirms we will begin with Day 0.25.

[ChannelDelibird]

I'm still waiting on wredfar to confirm. Will look for a replacement if I haven't heard from him within 24 hours.

[ChannelDelibird]

OK, all confirms are now in, so let's get going!

It is now Day 0.25.

All players may vote for a player to be revived - with 13 in Limbo, it will take 7 votes to do this. Deadline is 2 weeks from this post.

EDIT: Parama has informed me that he will be V/LA between the 26th and 29th of June.

[Parama]

Vote: Parama

No rule against it, and looking at the playerlist, I don't have enough trust in any of the other players to successfully townhunt.
Oh yeah, just FYI, this game is about townhunting just as much as it is about scumhunting.
Now vote me because I'm obvious town. Thanks

[StrangerCoug]

VOTE: Parama

As I remember saying in a previous game, when you're sane, you're dangerous to the scum. Scum cannot tolerate your in-your-face playstyle.

[Parama]

And that's why I catch you as scum every time, SC.
Jury's still out this game, mainly because this is the third post in the game. I approve of this vote, though.

[StrangerCoug]

Oh, yes. I remember that game very well.

[Parama]

PARAMA'S PLAYERLIST BREAKDOWN:

1. Parama
-You will worship me.

2. bobsnox
-Not trustworthy as town, will not be hard to catch as scum.

3. Slaxx
-The second person to be revived today. Assuming he doesn't claim scum, that is.

4. crypto
-He's usually too busy being a torll to help, but he can scumhunt if he feels like it. Never played with him as scum but he might be a threat if he is.

5. Packbat
-I've caught him as scum previously, shouldn't be too much of a challenge to do it again. And he can probably be useful as town.

6. Pomegranate
-Can be helpful as town, easy as hell to catch as scum.

7. ToastyToast
-No clue.

8. kiwieagle
-No clue.

9. Bub Bidderskins
-If he's scum, I'll catch him in 2 posts. If he's town, he'll probably be somewhat useful.

10. AntB
-Don't remember him much at all.

11. wredfar
-No clue.

12. StrangerCoug
-Easy to catch as scum but generally good at scumhunting when town.

13. Awesoma
-No clue.

This has been a relatively useless post brought to you by your high and mighty ruler.

[Bub Bidderskins]

Vote: StrangerCoug

Prediction: before this game is over, somebody will accidentally vote for a scum suspect.

[Bub Bidderskins]

@Parama, thanks for the new signature.

[Parama]

Bub y u voet sc n not me

[Packbat]

I think everyone I know in the playerlist is already in Parama's post; I don't see any place in which I would trust my judgment over his except (obviously) with respect to himself - I'm willing to believe he's pretty good as town, but I don't know him well enough to know if he can be caught easily as scum.

For now: VOTE: StrangerCoug

[StrangerCoug]

There is probably some truth to his statement, seeing how the recently-finished Color Concentration Mafia put me on a five-game losing streak as scum.

...Why not?

UNVOTE: Parama
VOTE: StrangerCoug

[AntB]

VOTE: Parama

I remember you being a pain in the scums ass.

[Parama]

I'm not terribly easy to catch as scum, though I suck at scum, but it hardly matters since I'm town this game.

[Awesoma]

For the sake of fair voting, I am not going to participate in RVS.

[Parama]

Awesoma is on my scum list. At least for now. She will not be saved on Day 0.25.

[bobsnox]

2. bobsnox
-Not trustworthy as town, will not be hard to catch as scum.

Can you explain either of those? You got me mislynched disingenuously. What other finished games have we played together?

I need to be alive in the near future but not right away. I just want to know where your read of me is coming from.

[Parama]

I modded a game with you in it, just FYI.
You were town that game, but still.
From the way you play I can tell it'd be easy to discern your alignment if I ever wanted to. Hopefully.

[Bub Bidderskins]

For the sake of fair voting, I am not going to participate in RVS.

What do you mean "fair voting"?

[StrangerCoug]

For the sake of fair voting, I am not going to participate in RVS.

The hell? This is not the RVS; right now Parama's discussing player meta to determine who should be revived. Nobody's vote is random in either the usually applied sense or the true sense.

[Awesoma]

For the sake of fair voting, I am not going to participate in RVS.

What do you mean "fair voting"?

Voting with some evidence behind it in this game, not of previous games, or how we knew that player in previous games or posts that are not in this game's thread.
All roles are assigned randomly, so one who is known for being scummy from overall games is not neccessarily scummy. RVS as interpreted by me is a random voting stage, where there is no true backing to a vote. I want to wait until we get at least through the second page so I can produce some quality reads before I vote. Basically I am just not voting at the moment.

[Slaxx]

Stranger+Parama are town for now, thank god.

I too am town.

So I am thinking we win, yeah?

vote Parama

[AntB]

For the sake of fair voting, I am not going to participate in RVS.

I haven't yet seen a single random vote.
