Game Rules (Not Variable)
1. I trust you all know the Basics of Mafia. If you don’t and are new to Mafia this is probably not the first game to try because of its experimental nature. If you are still really keen to participate, Let me know by pm. I may give you a crash course on mafia 101 and allow you to participate.
2. The Mafia players will be randomly selected from the player list and receive a PM inviting them to the team Quick Topic. If you don’t get that PM, Guess what, you’re a towny.
3. The Mafia win when their numbers Equal or outnumber, the number of remaining Innocents.
4. Private communication is allowed.
5. I don’t care about quoting private communication of other players or even shearing screenshots. However, DO NOT quote me ever! Whether that is a private communication or any of my in thread update posts.
6. Do not edit your posts, ever! I normally do not care about this when hosting but for this experiment I do.
7. If you are dead you may no longer post in thread. I will send you a link to dead QT to chat with other players.
8. Role/Alignment will be truthfully revealed upon death.
9. BE ACTIVE! You're encouraged to not only vote, but to participate in lengthy and in-depth discussions in the thread. This game was designed for active players, not inactive ones.
10. Voting ties for the are decided by Post count. Player with the least amount of posts will be lynched.
11. You can not make consecutive posts. Any consecutive posts will be ignored for vote counting purposes.
12. Have fun! This is, above all, a game. Having fun and respecting your fellow player is more important than winning the game.
13. If you're unsure whether or not you're allowed to do something, don't do it. You can always ask me. (Read the rules first, though.)
14. WOGs will occur as I deem them fit. Please, please don't make me WOG you. If possible, I will replace you, but even that is inconvenient. If I run out of reserves, I may use players who died very early.
Note: Rule 5 & 6 are Wog worthy. You will get only one warning for an infraction. And infraction post will not be counted for any
Setup: (Variable Rules)
15. Phases - Each Day is 48 hrs or there abouts. There is no night phase. This game is about Mafia manipulating the lynch.
