Revision as of 22:03, 7 July 2008

These are basic rules for any games moderated by somestrangeflea. These are subject to change under different circumstances, but, for the most part, rules will not differ far from these.

NOTE: These are still being tweaked and modified.

General

  • If you disagree with something I have done, or have a question about the game, feel free to PM.
  • Do not quote any PM I have sent you. Paraphrasing is acceptable, and if you are uncertain as to what is acceptable, PM me to check. Violators will be modkilled.
  • Don't pretend to quote any PM I have sent you either.
  • Role PMs can be found here. (Closed Normal games only)
  • A majority of the votes is required to lynch a player. Votes are made in the format Vote: Playername. Votes that are not in this format will not count.
  • Please Unvote before voting a different player. This rule will not be enforced as strictly as the previous one, but it helps me count, so please!
  • Do not dIscuss thIs game outsIde thIs thread, unless you have a role whIch allows thIs, and even then, only at nIght and only with the desIgnated players. I have Is and ears everywhere...
  • If you're dead, you're dead, and since the dead aren't alive, you're dead. Stop posting. Night-Killed players are allowed a single "Bah!" post with no game-pertinent information.
  • If you have moderating powers in this forum, do not edit or delete the posts of either yourself or another player. If you are caught, you will be modkilled if you are playing, and blacklisted from future games, because holding grudges is fun.
  • I will never lie to you. I may withhold information from you and add elements to the game that could mislead you, but I will never lie to you. Promise.
  • Blue bold is, officially, my text. Don't post in it.
  • If I need to edit a post for whatever reason (most commonly, top-of-page votecounts in Large games), I will use the out-of-character tags. Don't use these to make it look as though I've replied to something you've said. I don't see how people think they can get away with this one, to be honest. I can remember what I've written, you know...
  • I will inform the moderators of other games if you are breaking their rules (talking about their game outside the thread, etc) and let them deal with you accordingly.
  • Breaking a rule which doesn't majorly effect the game will get you replaced. Breaking a rule which does will get you modkilled. Breaking a rule which is classed as "game ruining" will get you modkilled, blacklisted, and possibly banned from games as a whole. Be careful. I am a hardass.
  • Do not use codes, tiny text, or white text in quote boxes to attempt to hide words that you say. Codes will get you replaced so you can't decode them, and tiny/white text will likely result in me posting the message LIKE THIS.
  • Have fun! If you aren't having fun, I want to know why. If you're sucking large amounts of fun out of the game, then you'll be dealt with. Don't take the game personally, and don't flame other players. So there.

Day, Night, Twilight and Daybreak

  • During the Day phase, players will discuss and vote until a player has been lynched. You can vote for there to be No-Lynch, but this also requires a majority of votes. Once the vote required to reach a majority has been cast, that person is dead. Unvoting will not undo the lynch, and the game will enter the Twilight Zone phase.
  • During the Twilight phase, players (except the player lynched, if appropriate) are still allowed to discuss, but votes will be ignored. The Twilight phase has an indeterminate length of time, as it is simply the length of time between the actual lynching vote, and the death scene/thread lock. The game then proceeds to the Night phase.
  • During the Night phase, any players who have powers which can be used at night can use their powers. This includes, but is not limited to, Mafia sending in their kill. The night phase has a deadline for actions, normally of around 3 real-life days. If you do not wish to make a choice, please send in "No Choice". Players who do not send in a choice will be treated as having sent "No Choice".
  • Daybreak follows Night, and is simply the period between the Nightchoice deadline and the thread being opened for Day to begin. Choices received are resolved, and therefore any choices sent during this time will be ignored. During this time, prods will be sent to any player who did not submit a choice. This includes players who did not have a choice and players who are part of groups from which one member did submit a choice.

Inactivity, Prods and Deadlines

  • Any player who becomes inactive will be prodded after 3 days (weekends counting as 1), and will be replaced if there are no posts after a full week of inactivity. If you are prodded more than 3 times in the same game Day, or 5 times overall, you will be replaced.
  • If you anticipate on being unavailable for more than a 3 day period (weekends counting as 1), then please inform us, either in thread, or by sending me a PM. Posting in the V/LA thread will not save you. Generally, absences of less than a week will be allowed, however longer absences will require a replacement.
  • A non-retractable deadline will be set at the beginning of each Day. This deadline will fall 3*(Number of living players) after the Day dawns.
  • If the thread activity falls too low, the deadline may be brought forward. The deadline will then fall 7 days after it was brought forward. This rule is very, very unlikely to apply when three or less players are alive, but you never know... The deadline will be reverted to the standard deadline if activity picks up.
  • If no majority is reached before the deadline arrives, no-one will be lynched.

Please read the above rules carefully, as a number of factors vary depending on the size and type of the game being played.
