General Game Rules:
(Stolen and modified from hasdgfas, Porochaz and shaft.ed)
Behavior:
1) This is a game. Please try to act in a respectful manner towards everyone.
2) Play to win, but also to have fun. See rule 1.
3) I will post in either
or normal text. Green is mine, so don’t use it.
4) Please refrain from profanity. If it is mild, I will tolerate it, but if excessive, a profanity warning will be issued. Upon second offense, the offender will be replaced.
5) Do not quote any private communications with me or other players. Failure to adhere to this rule will result in modkill. If you have a question about whether something is acceptable, PM me.
6) You may not talk about this game outside the thread unless your role allows, whether you’re dead or not.
7) Do not edit or delete your posts. There are reasons for this, which I will explain if necessary. If I catch you, you will be modkilled.
Activity Levels and Prods:
8) I expect everyone to be active. Failure to post within a 48 hour span will result in a prod. Four prods will result in me searching for your replacement.
9) Players may request a prod on another player at any time, by posting in thread by asking me in
bold
.
10) Not picking up a prod within 72 hours will result in replacement.
Voting, Lynches, and Deadlines:
11) Please vote in bold, such as
vote: kloud
. When changing votes, you must
unvote
. Not doing so will result in an "accidental" failure on my part of acknowledging the repeal and/or change of the vote.
11.a) You may use nicknames and acronyms when voting, as long as it is clear exactly whom you are referring to.
12) A lynch will require the votes of a majority of players. When a majority is reached, no further votes/unvotes will be counted.
13) You may
Vote: No Lynch
to decide to not lynch someone on a given day. No-lynching requires 50% or more of the votes, thus on days with an even number of players it will take one less vote to No Lynch than to lynch.
14) Each day will have an automatic deadline of 3*(number of players) days limited to the range of 35 to 14 days. I may extend it in very special circumstances.
15) If a majority is not reached by deadline, the person with the highest number of votes
as long as it is more than one
will be lynched. In the case of a tie, the first person to reach that number of votes will be lynched. The person who would be lynched if deadline were to reach with no changes will be indicated in votecounts with
font.
16) Posting in twilight is acceptable, for both the lynchee and town members.
17) Once your death scene is posted, you may make only one ‘Bah’ post. That is all.
Miscellaneous:
18) If you fake breaking a rule, it will incur the same punishment as actually breaking the rule.
19) If you believe I have made a small mistake, for example, in a vote count, please point it out in thread. If you have a more serious grievance for some reason, PM me. Leave it out of the thread.
20) My word is final. If you have a problem with it, see rule 19.
21) This ruleset may be incomplete. If you spot an obvious loophole, don't be a jerk - PM me and point it out. If the Mod discovers an oversight, or feels a player is doing something that, while technically within the rules, is against the spirit of the game, the Mod may add to these rules and inform/warn the players affected as appropriate.
* The game will begin with a Day Start, once all players have confirmed both in the thread
and via PM
that they have received their roles.
