OK, before reading this post, I want you to know that I haven't finished the book yet, and there are spoilers to the second season premier of six feet under.

I have left the game early April (see posts in sign-up thread).
Dragon Phoenix in the sign up thread wrote:/out in view of the lack of pace of this game.
He clearly quit.

prods for Thoth, Sinster Overlord and Flying dutchman
who have been active on other games. I think they just for got.
Not really. I just have to read to the complete thread which is 40 pages and have no time to do so. If there's a replacement available for me that would be best.
Here thoth kind of offered to quit.
Good Omens (especially in the context of this game) seems to me to be about life. The struggle of life. The game of life. While I was trying to think of the reasons for this mod kill, I thought of several things. I was blank.
But then I re-watched an episode of Six Feet Under, and nate confuses an asprin pill with an ectasy pill, and gets high. He then sees his dead father playing chinese checkers with life and death. Life and death ask if nate wants to play, and nate says, "shouldn't I wait for this game to end?" Life retorts with sometihng along the lines of, "This game ain't never gonna end, honey" and death goes "You're either in or out." His father says "On or off the bus if you prefer." This was meant to show that Nate was either highly emersed in living, and being active, or he was out and what not. Good omens seems the same to me. You're either in, or you're out, dead. So I think at the point where someone offers to go out, they're off the bus. They're not playing. They're not in the struggle for life. And also this would only apply to currently living humans I guess, and that would fit both the roles.*

Or right after two incredibly innocuous posts (i.e., the Thoth modkill)? These are potentially mod-flavored regular kills. I'd be inclined to believe they're Godkills, but I don't know for sure. And I can't say for sure that they're scumkills as opposed to vigkills of some sort, but it seems more probable.
I don't think these are a killing group. Night 3 and day 6? It doesn't make any sense. I guess, it could be every three days, cuz 3 is a magical number, but it doesn't make sense for one to be night and the next to be day. Unless the mods are randomly killing people every three days, for some stupid reaosn, and forgot last night.
But this especially not if it was god kills. Most people think god would be partnered with metatron, and it would be way underpowered for a scum group to kill this rarely. And it doesn't make sense, because we have almost all our other kills assigned, don't we?
