Spoiler: Rules
Rules
(Adapted from northsidegal with some edits)
General
-Adhere to all site rules.
-Always play to win.
-Remember that this is a game - heated discussion is allowed, but personal attacks are not.
-If someone is being toxic and making the game unfun for you, please let the moderator know.
-Pretending to break the rules will be treated similarly as actually breaking the rules.
-Do not quote any out of game communication regarding this game - this includes but is not limited to your role PM, any PTs you have access to, and any other PMs I may send you.
-If you need to get my attention, please include "
@mod
" in your post or PM me.-

-Do not use encryption, hidden text or excessively small text in your posts.
-Do not use any form of provable randomness. This includes dice tags, screenshots of random.org, etc. Saying you flipped a coin is okay, providing some sort of proof that you did isn’t.
-Day 1 will last for 14 days and all further days will last for 10 days, with night phases lasting 48 hours.
-Everyone can agree to a Fast Night to end the night earlier.
-Do not post in the game thread or any private topics following your death, with the exception of the dead thread. You may post a single contentless "Bah!" post however.
-If you have the ability to edit your posts, do not do so.
-My decisions are final. If I feel you are violating any of the rules, I will take the appropriate action.
-Speculating about why people replaced out is considered angleshooting and is discouraged.
-Try to spoiler animated GIFs and videos. Using images or videos as "serious" content is discouraged.
-Do not use the L-word. Alternatives include eliminate, exile, and execute.
-As a general principle, whenever moderator action is required I will attempt to make the decision that has the least impact on the natural flow of gameplay. For example, force replacing instead of modkilling whenever possible.
-Have fun!
Voting
-All votes and unvotes must be in
bold
or in VOTE: vote tags, with vote tags being preferable.-Votes in spoilers and quotes will not be counted.
-Abbreviations and nicknames are acceptable, as long as I can understand them.
-Exiles will occur when a majority (>50%) is reached. If no majority is reached before deadline, the day will end in a no elimination.
-Voting to end the day in a no-exile requires only 50% of players, not >50%.
-Once a hammer has occurred, the game is in "twilight". Discussion may continue until I lock the thread but no further votes or unvotes will be counted.
Activity
-You are expected to make at least one game-relevant post every 48 hours. Players who go 48 hours without posting will be prodded.
-If you are prodded, you have 24 hours to post in-thread. If you do not respond within 24 hours, you will be replaced. Additionally, if I have to prod you 3 or more times, you will be replaced at my own discretion.
-Abuse of prod dodges will result in you being replaced at my own discretion.
-If you are going to be V/LA, please announce it in thread or PM me. If your V/LA will last 7 days or longer I may be forced to replace you. You may declare periodic V/LA (e.g. weekend V/LA).
-If you do not send me an action for the night, I will assume that you are not taking one.
Game Notes
-This is a Grand Idea Mafia game with a uPick style of assigning roles.
-Everyone must submit a
Town
Groupscum
Free Space
role, and a Mod Discretion
-Town roles must be Town aligned or Mod Discretion aligned. If your Town role pick is Mod Discretion aligned, it is guaranteed to be Town aligned.
-Groupscum roles must be aligned with a groupscum faction or be Mod Discretion aligned. If your Groupscum role pick is Mod Discretion aligned, it is guaranteed to be groupscum aligned.
-Free Space roles can be of any alignment.
-Mod Discretion roles can be of any alignment, however the role's alignment will be overwritten with the Mod Discretion alignment.
-If you fail to submit a pick or your pick is vetoed, it will be replaced with a Mod Discretion Vanilla.
-Game-breaking or unfun roles may be vetoed. Roles that massively change the setup may also be vetoed.
-Mason Feasibility Clause and XeLo Normality Clause apply.
-Like with any Grand Idea Mafia game, balance is very not guaranteed and the game is mechanically and procedurally bastard. Expect anything and everything.
-All Private Topics have daytalk enabled, unless a specific role overrides this.
-You may request a personal PT/notes PT. Discord Servers may be requested in lieu of personal PTs/notes PTs/hydra PTs. Discord Servers may not be requested in lieu of game PTs.
-Scum know each other's roles and may submit actions via PT.
-Everyone has inherent multitasking, unless a specific role overrides this. (they may use a personal and a factional action. Using multiple personal actions requires the Multitasking modifier)
-Scumteams are informed fully, they know each other's roles and may submit actions via PT.
-The setup is guaranteed to contain at least 2 players aligned with one scumteam and more Town than scum.
-Duplicates are not rerolled.
-Groupscum with alive partners can't have their alignment changed by default. Alignment changes will fail by default if either the target or performer die that Night.
-Third Party wins do not end the game by default.
