Rogue Rules

1. "Rogues Don't Snitch" - No BTSC unless otherwise specified. Role-outing or otherwise publicly revealing information that you've obtained on your own is strictly prohibited.

2. "Rogues Don't Leave a Trail" - Editing or deleting posts is considered taboo in general when it comes to Mafia. This game is no exception.

3. "We All Play Our Parts in the Heist" - Please participate! It makes things easier on everyone if you do.

4. "Rogues Stay Clean" - Off topic posts in sea green, please stick to this as it helps the game out and others catch up better.

5. "Rogues Don't Kill Innocents" - Non players in Blue. Dead players in Red. If you fall in either of these categories no on topic posts.

6. "When All Else Fails, Take Whatever Help You Can Get" - If you have a question for a host post it in Bold underline.

7. "In and Out, There's Plenty of Suckers for Us to Scam" - Don't target the same player two nights in a row. The exception is Rainbow Raider's power, as long as he alters the color of the beam he fires.

8. "Rogues Get the Job Done" - Vote and PM on time. If you miss 2 in a row of either, your next one won't count. If you don't want to use a Night Power, send a PM to tell me. If you have a teammate who is absent/not participating, let me know and I'll sort the situation out.

9. "The Rogues are Family" - Don't take anything personally, don't make anything personal. Have fun with the game.

MAP PREVIEW (IN PROGRESS; CLEANER, MORE LEGIBLE VERSION FORTHCOMING :P ):



*note the rectangular, not square, spaces.

I know you had me look at this already, but I just want to emphasize publicly that this looks absolutely sweet!!

Yep, I'd play this.

Thank you, MP and Hedge! Glad that it's looking good so far.

Update: I'm doing some final tweaking on this behemoth of a game, and putting together an e-copy of the game's map in my spare time with a Paint.net-friendly computer.

The map has been the most daunting dynamic so far, but it makes me really excited as a host. The depictions of Keystone and Central in map-form are few and far between, so it's been a welcome challenge trying to piece together the different interpretations and continuity changes while keeping things straightforward and welcoming to new players and non-comic readers!

A couple lessons in running a map-based game that I've learned from The Island:

-BTSC will be limited to certain locations, not necessarily every square.

-More methods of deception should be made available to all players, to lessen the impact of claim-based trust.

-Keep a VERY neatly organized spreadsheet for myself, or I'll go insane.

Can't wait for this one now that I have played a map game. I really loved our baddie spreadsheet in LOST as well. Who knew evil could be so organized?

Yes, Dom deserves all the credit in the world for that ingenious idea.

Since then, I've not only been working with a spreadsheet as a future, potential host, but also as a player in other games. Coming to conclusions is so much easier when I have everything out in front of me in physical form.
