I am MOD. There is no greater authority than I. I reserve the right to alter these rules if I deem it necessary, including retroactively enforcing new/altered rules. You also have my promise that I will not do so unless it really is necessary.
2)
Do not talk about this game outside of the thread (or your QT, if you have one) in any way, shape, or form.
3)
Do not quote any mod communications originating outside the game thread. You may paraphrase, but be cautious when doing so.
4)
If you are modkilled, you automatically become a Neutral Survivor, and lose the game.
Voting will be done either using the VOTE: tag, or in this format:
vote: Nixon
.
2)
There will be no voting trickery. If something is clearly intended to be a vote for a specific player, I will treat it as such.
3)
A lynch will occur when half-plus-one of living players are voting for the same player. As soon as the hammer vote is cast, the game will enter Twilight.
4)
All living players (including the lynchee) may talk in Twilight, but any voting/unvoting will not count. Twilight will last until I post the final vote count / scene.
5)
Roles will be revealed at death.
6)
Once dead, you are allowed a single ‘bah’ post at the beginning of the next Day Phase. This post must be made within 48 hours of the beginning of the Day, and cannot contain any game information.
7)
If there is no majority at deadline, the player with the highest number of votes will be lynched. Anyone not voting will be counted as voting for no-lynch. If two or more players are tied for the most votes, the player who has been at that number of votes for the longest amount of time will be lynched.
Deadlines:
1)
Day phases will have a deadline of 2 weeks from the daybreak scene.
2)
Day phases are extendable in the case of excessive/badly timed replacements, or if two-thirds of living players request an extension.
3)
Night phases will have an unalterable deadline of 3 days from the lynch scene.
4)
Prods will be given if a player has not posted in 48 hours.
5)
A player must respond, in-thread, to a prod within 48 hours, or they will be replaced. If the 48 hours runs into Night Phase, they must PM me within the same time frame.
Don’t Be Stupid:
1)
Don’t use hidden or encrypted text. You may use small text, unless it is hiding game-related or important information.
2)
Play to your win condition.
3)
Don’t attack your fellow players. It’s just a game.
4)
Understand that life throws curveballs sometimes, and players will have to go V/LA. I can certainly relate. Please do not accuse players of using V/LA unfairly.
5)
By the same token, please don’t use V/LA unfairly. If something comes up, that’s fine, but don’t ruin the game for others. Request replacement if you need to.
6)
Have fun. No, really. Have fun.

Role PM's should be out soon. I will bold players once they've confirmed. The game will start once 14 players have confirmed.
jmurph3 is V/LA until Sunday.
Uite is V/LA until Sunday.

Hello. Finals week means I will be posting even less frequently than usual this coming week.
Notice, Uite declared V/LA in the replacements thread, so now everyone has confirmed.
KoC, I cannot support a V/LA bandwagon, as I am semi-V/LA myself.
Therefore, VOTE: Knight of Cydonia

Both heads usually ask a few questions at the start of games for our own personal reference, so we'll do so again here...
What time zone are you in?
What's your experience level? Especially good to know in case of alts and whatnot.
About how active will you be in this game?
To answer:
Both of us are California residents, so Pacific Daylight Time (GMT-8 +1)
Between the two of us, ~25 completed games on MafiaScum.
We're both active posters as individuals, so both activity level and content in this game should be reasonably high from us.
Vote: Toon Fighter.
Can't tell if you're fighting music or cartoons, but really, why fight either?

1. Meh.
2. Not as good as I'd like.
3. As active as I am.
This is Yoshi, right? I seem to recall fielding these before - they seem about as helpful still.

EST, otherwise known as the real time zone.

I played some games a few years ago, then came back recently. This is my 3rd game since coming back, and I think my 10th game overall.
About how active will you be in this game?
It's the summer so I've got pretty much nothing but free time, so I plan on being pretty active.

GMT, been here too long, will probably be less active for the first month as I have finals.

Pretty active, I can check and do basic responses on my phone, and keep up-to-date for when I'm at a PC.

EDT, do your own research on me, and I'm pretty active and vocal.
No real early reads yet, though I'm not a fan of the early sheeping out of Toon.

Unannounced thread is unannounced.
Pacific Time (aka the REAL timezone), over 30 games (not that you'd know it, I still suck) and I'm online all day but working, so ....sporadic. And don't stalk me here, it pisses me off.

Oh but it isn't RQS, it's simply for me to know. I like knowing people's time zones ever since my first game when I played with an Australian or something because he posted at weird times and I seem to recall waiting for his post close to deadline, without really knowing he was on a weird time zone.
It is also handy to know if someone is a long time pro or a first timer, as obvious mistakes will be much more likely made by a new player than a veteran. Likewise I also like to have a feel for people's posting habits quickly, as it gives me an indication if someone is lurking harder than they normally do.
Toon, why choose the nhammen "wagon"? Maxous already had 2 votes at the time of you voting, as opposed to the 1 on nhamman. If you were really voting for the purpose of wagoning, you'd vote for Maxous. Seems fishy to me. Glad my vote is already on you, saves me the trouble.

Also, just some random shout outs. I'm looking forward to playing with a lot of you again! Uite in particular gave me lots of trouble in a game not too long ago, let's see how this turns out.
And hello again Pine, NS, wraith, and Thor.

I'm pretty inebriated and hoped to come in to this htread as well and dispense brilliance. Instead I've got nothing to react to. So...to heck with all of you. Later.
