Consulmaker Rules:

General

Each Day has a minimum length of 1 week and maximum length of 3 weeks. Once we are down to 10 players, the maximum length will be 2 weeks. Once we are down to 5 players, there will be no minimum length and a maximum length of 1.5 weeks.

Consuls and Dictator

Rather than voting, each Day's lynch will be decided by the Consuls. They both have the power of a Day-ending execution and an absolute power to veto any such execution attempt. The Consuls are chosen each Night by the Consulmaker(every Night a new pair). If one of the Consuls dies that Night, the other Consul will become a Dictator and will have the power to decide that Day's lynch on his own, but such a Day will be at most 2 weeks long, rather than 4. If both Consuls die, no lynch will take place. Once it is down to 5 players, only a Dictator will be chosen. In that situation, the Consulmaker will also be able to pick a back-up Dictator each night, in case his first pick dies. Consuls and Dictators possess immunity from execution.

Tribunes

In addition to the Consuls, we also have Tribunes. Tribunes possess immunity from execution and are allowed to veto one execution a Day (the tribunal veto lasts the day). As it is their duty to represent the people, they are elected during the first week of every Day. Votes for Tribunes must be written in the format: Vote for Tribune: CES. At the end of the first week, the two players with the most votes are elected Tribune. If there's a tie for second place, only 1 Tribune will be elected. If there's a three(or more)-way tie for first place, no Tribune will be elected. Once we are down to 10 players or fewer, only 1 Tribune may be elected. Once we are down to 5 players, Tribunes will no longer be elected.

Executions

Any Consul or Dictator can at any time after the first week of the Day post Execute: Target in thread to bring about the execution of that person. A period of 48 hours will follow in which the Town is allowed to talk and the target can make a final plea. It is during this period that executions may be vetoed. The period will end prematurely if everyone capable of vetoing waives his right of veto(or alternatively, if there is no-one capable of vetoing) and accepts the execution. If the execution is sent in less than 48 hours before the deadline, then it will only go through if the waiting period ends before the deadline as a result of the afore-mentioned.

Consulmaker Death

If the Consulmaker ever dies, his role will pass to a random Roman Senator. If there are no Roman Senator for the role to pass to, then Rome loses.

All role PMs are out. We will start with Day as soon as the Consulmaker has sent me his choices and everyone has picked up his/her PMs.

No, as there is no such rule. Although you are, of course, free to do so.

Happy scum day by the bye.

stupid question, but what's the point of this rule?

It's very hard to spot if one uses color=black tags around certain letters in a post. This way you can hide a message in your text in a similar manner as using invisitext.

wouldn't that come out as soon as someone quotes you?

Yes. It's not banned because it's a foolproof way to hide a breadcrumb, it's banned because of how it hides the breadcrumb.

oh, wow. hadn't even noticed this.
since I am consul today, I am not going to give you my reads. I am going to keep them secret until the moment I propose an execution.
this way, scum will have less opportunity to mess with my reads and will have to fear a little more.
I will ask relevant questions.

I'd like my fellow consul to do the same. keep your reads for yourself.
The only exception for this rule: I'd like to hear a reason for you Tribune-vote.

mod: are the consuls at the beginning chosen at random?
