1. The mod has the final say on any issue.
1a. However, the mod can make mistakes. If he does, please point them out either in a PM or in thread.
2. If something is missing from this ruleset, do not exploit the loophole. Instead, point it out to the mod so it can be corrected. Taking advantage of a loophole will result in punishment up to and including a modkill.
3. If you need any help, or have questions, or just want to talk in general, feel free to PM the mod.
3a. Obviously, there are certain things the mod can't comment on, like "Who is the scum."
4. Dead players may not post in the thread; they will be provided with a quicktopic should they wish to discuss the game amongst themselves.
4a. Dead scum may not reveal their partners in this quicktopic, to avoid ruining the fun for dead townspeople should they wish to continue scumhunting.
5. The mod reserves the right to edit this ruleset as he deems necessary.
6. Remember, this is a game. Don't forget to have fun!
That's what I get for being a BRAND NEW MOD!
