Gameplay
1. Days are 48 hours. The thread will be open and all players should post.
2. Nights are 24 hours. The thread will be open and all players may post.
3. All game conversation must take place in the thread unless you have specifically been given BTSC (see: Rules).
4. All votes must be cast in the poll to count. It is considered standard and good form to post at the time of your vote and indicate your vote with bold/underline. Your host would very much appreciate that you do this, so please do so, but it is not necessary for your vote to count.
5. All votes are changeable. You may change your vote as many times as you wish up until the vote's deadline.
6. All lynch ties will be decided randomly.
7. Roleplaying is not required by heavily encouraged. As a group we will be awarding Best Roleplay to a player at the end of the game for best character roleplay.
8. In addition to Best Roleplay, we will also be awarding MVP to a player at the end of the game for best in-game performance. Play your best! Impress your friends and your enemies!
9. All roles have been assigned randomly, and all characters have been assigned without consideration for role or alignment. Please note that this means evil characters in the show could be town and good characters in the show could be mafia. Character and alignment are not at all related.
10. If your faction wins, you win, regardless of whether you are dead or alive at endgame. Do your best! Fight for your faction's win condition. Players who fail to meet participation criteria (see: Participation) may be denied a win.
Rules
1. Be respectful and remember that this is a game. Although mafia is a game of deception and can be rather heated, recognize that the game is not personal and that your friends may be lying to you in the spirit of the game. Please treat your fellow players with respect, even if you suspect or strongly disagree with them. If you are upset or in conflict with other player(s), don't be disrespectful to them and derail the game, instead contact the Game Facilitator.
2. No BTSC (Behind the Scenes Contact/Conversation) with anyone other than your specified BTSC partners.
3. No editing or deleting of posts.
4. Role outing of yourself and others, whether true or false, is permitted and encouraged. This includes statements such as "Ugly Naked Guy is Mafiaoso", "I am the cop", etc. Dump any role-related information into the thread as you wish.
5. This is a sockpuppet game, which is meant to conceal the true identity of the users playing. Let's all keep in character and not turn the game of mafia into "guess who's under each sock in the thread!" or "tell me your true identity!"; that would be against the nature of the sockpuppet aspect of this game, so don't do it. If you have your suspicions as to who a player might be, keep them to yourself.
6. No self-voting, even as a placeholder. This is considered an illegal move in this game as much as voting for the non-player option. There is an "Unvote" option for a vote placeholder.
7. Dead players should not post on-topic and any off-topic posts made should be in dead red. There is a "dead" code for this function.
8. Off-topic posts by players should be in off-topic green. There is an "OT" code for this function.
9. Posts by non-players should be in non-player blue. There is a "np" code for this function.
10. This is the host color. All host posts will be in this color. Don't use it!
Participation
The following behavior constitutes non-participation:
- If you do not post for more than 72 consecutive hours.
- If you do not cast a vote in 2 or more lynches.
If you meet either of these criteria, I will try to seek a replacement and forcibly replace you from the game if possible, though I will warn you via PM of this before taking action. You also may be ineligible to win if your faction wins, per my discretion as the game host. If at any time you are afraid you cannot fulfill participation in this game due to any reason, please PM me immediately explaining your situation or requesting a replacement. The game is much more enjoyable for all of us if you all are playing it, so please do so!
The Game Facilitator for this game is [mention]Paul Stevens[/mention] (roleplayed by [mention]JaggedJimmyJay[/mention]). Please PM him with any grievances or concerns you may have at any time, notably including conflicts with other players. Keep the thread fun and clean of emotionally-charged drama or conflicts; PM the facilitator instead. He is there for any of your questions or concerns not strictly related to game or role mechanics. We want to keep this game as fun as possible for everyone. Thanks!
