~The Rules~
[01] VOTING METHOD: Votes must be in bold. example:
Vote: LlamaFluff
If you do not bold your vote, it will not be counted. You are not required to unvote before casting another vote, if please try to.
[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 – unless it is deadline, majority votes of this kind are necessary to end the day without a death.
[04] DEADLINE: This game will have mandatory deadlines of, at most, 3 weeks. As the game whittles down its living membership deadlines may grow shorter. If I deem it necessary a player being replaced may extend the deadline.
[05] DEADLINE LYNCH RULES: You must lynch a player to lynch a player. If no one has a majority of votes at deadline, no one will be lynched.
[06] NIGHT CHOICES: Night choices will be expected within 72 hours. If you do not inform me of a night choice you will forfiet it.
[07] LURKING AND NOT POSTING: Lurking is not an acceptable strategy in this game. Anyone who goes more than 72 hours without posting, without advance warning, is likely to be replaced. (I don't count weekends for this purpose.) Mafia is a social contract. Everyone is expected to give information and comment to be analysed. If this is uncomfortable for you, consider taking up solitaire instead.
[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.
[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. 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 "Special" Rules~
[01] Before the game begins, you have five days to elect who will become a double voter. If no one has reached majority, the highest vote getter will be elected. If the highest vote getter is tied with another player, I will roll a die.
[02] After a double voter is elected, the game will go to night
[03] You must give me a list of all players in the game, from who you wish to recieve your vote(s) if you die most, to least. All living players must be included in this list.
[04] You must turn in your list with confirmation. Failure to do so will result in one warning before I start searching for a repalcement.
[05] It is not required, but you may update your list at any time you are alive
[06] Votes will be passed on at the end of a phase.
[07] All votes will be passed simultaniously
[08] The mafia win condition is as follows
You win when the mafia controls more then half of the votes. Mafia does not win if they outnumber the town without achieving this.
The following is the Vanilla Townie PM, at least one player in the game recieved it
You are a Vanilla Townie
You have no special powers in this town.
You do however have the ability to pass on your vote to others when you die. You must send me a list of all the players in the game, ordered from who you most want to recieve your vote, or votes, when you die, to least.
You win when all threats to the town are eliminated
