Ruleset
Rules Section 1: General Rules
1.1. No discussion of the game outside the thread will be allowed unless I explicitly say so.
1.2. Do not edit posts. Do not use invisible text. Do not use small text.
1.3. No quoting of PMs will be allowed. Claiming is allowed, but quoting role PMs is not. By the same token, NO quoting mod communication in the game thread.
1.4. No discussion of the game in thread will be allowed following the game being put into night. However, the day does not end until I verify that a lynch has occurred.
1.5. No discussion of ongoing games will be permitted.
1.6. A basic level of civility will be required of all players. If personal attacks reach an excessive level, action will be taken.
1.7. At my discretion, modkills will be issued for the breakage of these rules depending on the intent and severity of the error. Modkills will convert a player to neutral survivor, and either not end or end the day, at my discretion. I will make sure that modkills are harmful to your faction.
1.8. Any type of claiming mafia partners as any alignment will result in a modkill, regardless of alignment. Don't do it.
1.9. Intentionally provoking a player in an attempt to get him or her modkilled or otherwise using modkills for strategic purposes will result in a modkill against the person using it as a tactic.
Rules Section 2: Voting, Deadlines, and Prods
2.1. All votes should be bolded and in the following format:
Vote: [PLAYERNAME]
. Likewise, if you are already voting for someone, please unvote before voting again, in a format like this:
Unvote, vote: [PLAYERNAME]
.
2.2. Players may vote to end the day without a lynch by a majority of them voting for a no lynch.
2.3. Upon the majority of players voting for a particular player, a lynch will occur. If, at deadline, a majority has not been reached, no-lynch will occur.
2.4. Deadlines will be as follows: 2 weeks will be allowed per day. No extensions will be allowed except due to extenuating circumstances. Night actions must be received within 48 hours of a day's end. This means that night phases are roughly 50 hours long. If no night action is received, it will be randomized.
2.5. Failure to post within a 72 hour period will result in a prod. Failure to respond to a prod within 48 hours will result in replacement. After being prodded 3 times, unless your activity has made up for it otherwise, you will be force replaced if you need a fourth prod.
