The follow is a work in progress
Mafia specific rules
Do not edit/delete posts.
Do not quote communications with the moderator (in particular, your role PM). Paraphrasing is usually ok.
Do not talk outside the game thread about an ongoing game except where explicitly allowed to do so by your role/moderator.
Do not post in the game after you are dead or replaced. Some moderators do allow content-less "Bah!" posts, but you should never reveal information once you are dead.
Do not attempt to play the same game under more than one name.
Do not bring outside influences into the game - this includes threats, bribes, wagers, promises, "trust tells", alliances, etc. Using knowledge from previous games is perfectly acceptable, but try not to carry grudges from one game to another.
Do not use codes/anything else to hide secret messages - this equates to discussion outside the thread.
If you believe a mod error has been made or you disagree with any action a mod has taken, pm them immediately.
Do not play against the spirit of the rules or of the game. Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
No invisible/small/encrypted text allowed.
You may not quote private communication of any kind, including (real or fabricated) Moderator-supplied information. Paraphrasing is acceptable.
Play to win the game.
Specific/additional rules will be given by game moderators.
The following is an example of additional rules you may see in a game:
1. Votes should be made using bolded text (Vote: Eleanor). You can also vote for no eliminate. Unvotes when changing votes are not necessary. Votes made inside quoted or spoilered text will not be counted.
2. A eliminate (or no eliminate) occurs when a simple majority is reached. If deadline is reached without a simple majority, a no eliminate occurs.
3. All days have a deadline of 7 days. I may extend this in rare circumstances.
4. When a player is lynched, the game enters twilight. All players may continue to post until I lock the thread.
5. Each night will end after 48 hours and no sooner. The countdown for a night deadline will not start while a replacement is being sought out.
6. All night actions must be submitted by PM or a relevant private topic.
7. In the case of five consecutive phases with no deaths, all factions who have not yet achieved their win condition lose.
Activity Rules:
1. A prod PM will be issued if any player does not post for 48 hours. Prods will be announced in-thread. You have 24 hours to pick up your prod either by posting or PM (if at night).
2. I will seek replacement (or kill if not possible)if a player receives more than three prods.
3. If you plan to be gone for over 48 hours, please announce that you will be V/LA in-thread (or by PM, if at night).
