Game has started, only post if you are an active player
If you have any questions about this feel free to
PM me.
The roles have been sent out.
If you did not recieve one, you're just an ordinary citizen.
This post will simply go over the rule of the game. If you want to sign up still let me know via
PM before the game starts. If you want to join after this time then I will add you into reserves and you can replace anyone who decides to quit for whatever reason. At the moment though there are no reserves so if you quit, you die. If you wish to take a break from the game for a while just send me a
PM, I can't guarentee that the other players won't kill you while you're gone though.
Rules (copy pasted from Gornall's game, with some minor changes)
Votes
1) Votes must be in bold, if you do not bold your vote it will not be counted. This is a good vote -
Vote: Thatguy this is a not good vote - Vote: Thatguy.
Keep in mind that if you seperate it from a block of text like this line, it will be easier to find and thus not be missed.
2) You must Unvote in the same manner.
3) Lynching will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, their pleas are useless and any attempts to unvote will be unheeded. Thus, as soon as any player has a majority vote that player will be lynched and all subsequent voting does not count. Feel free to post other thoughts while waiting for the lynch scene if you desire. With 7 alive 4 votes are required to lynch. With 3 alive, 2 votes would be required. Ect. ect.
4) You may vote: no lynch. If No Lynch is the majority votes at any time then the day will end with no lynch and move on to the night phase.
5) Vote counts will be tabulated and posted by me at semi-regular intervals or when requested.
6) At the end of the phase the choice with the most votes on it will count. This replaces the majority requirement and keeps the game moving.
Deadlines
1) I will be enforcing a fixed two week Day Phase deadline. All Night Phases have a 48 hour deadline. Deadlines will be counted from the Moderator (my) story posts that will initiate each day and night phase.
2) If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. I will not wait for you. If you do not submit a choice to me then nothing will happen... at all... not even a little bit.
Posting
1) The game is not to be discussed outside the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so – and then only during Night Phase (Except Daemons, you're special). Honor system is in effect.
2) Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead. Stop typing. A single “Bah, you fools!” type post is allowable, but no more please.
Do NOT provide meaningful information during your death post. AKA No "voices from the grave" Scary red text to point out it's importance.
3) No small or invisible text. Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts either. Secret codes worked into your regular text are allowable. Going back and editing a post may be grounds for disqualification from the game based on my whim. You may edit your posts if you can provide a decent explanation for why you did simply have it at the bottom like this:
Edit: Grammar freak exterminating failures
You cannot edit out votes, that's classed as cheating. Also note that you have a two hour time limit in which you may edit the post; after that it's cheating. If you do wish to edit something make the text strikeout* and put your edit next to it
4) Don’t quote any
PMs from me. If you do, I will be most unhappy (
). Do not metagame by using any part of role
PMs to figure out what roles others may or may not have (i.e. 'everyone post the third letter from the second line of their role
PM') Any such metagame activity will result in a modkill (in other words, I'll declare you dead (it will be a stupid death that makes you look really stupid
) and the game will move to the next phase; you will not be missed)
5) If you anticipate being unavailable for more than 2 days, please post a notice to that effect in the thread. Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.
6) Game Mods are human (allegedly), if I make a mistake please
PM me I will rectify the mistake as soon as I can.
7) Please bold anything you want me to see.. Also, please try to avoid bolding anything else to ensure I DO see the ones I need to.
Prods aka 'That guy hasn't posted in a while'
1)A player will get prodded if they have been inactive for two real life days.
2)Weekends count as one day. (ie If your last post is on a Thursday you will not be prodded till the Monday following)
3) If you do not pick up your prod/post in game within 24 hours of it being sent I will remove you.
4) Please post in game if you are going to be unavailable for more than 48 hours.
Speshul Rules
The Daemonic Possession System
Possession works like this, after a Daemon player dies they have the option to try to latch onto someone's mind before they fall back into the warp. A Daemon can attempt to possess someone once they are dead, they can only possess one person. They also have to
PM me who they wish to possess, I will then
PM the person they possess if it goes through. Once a possession is successful, the two may communicate freely via
PM throughout the game.
The Daemon players will know who the cultists are, but not the other way around. If the Daemon tries to possess a person who is unable to be possessed, then it fails and they leave the game as normal. If the player they possess is on the innocent side, they join the chaos side until the Daemon is removed. If the person the Daemon is possessing is killed the Daemon leaves the game, as they may only attempt to possess someone once.
A Daemon possessing someone can do nothing but communicate with the person they're possessing and other Daemons. Messages from other Daemons cannot be passed onto a player who is possessed and their messages cannot be passed onto the other Daemons either.
This system really depends on the honor system a lot, so no cheating.
The Banishment System
Banishment basically works like this, Daemons can possess players and remain in play after they're lynched. Banishment works like a night kill, but will only effect a player currently possessed by a Daemon, and when it hits them the Daemon is gone out of the game. Possession will be explained a bit later with the Daemon role. This can also effect a normal Daemon, but they go into Possession Mode instead of simply vanishing from the game.
Misc
Remember, it’s a game and it’s supposed to be fun. Be nice to your fellow players.
If you have a problem in game please
PM me to discuss it.
The rules can and will be edited at any point if I deem it necessary.
Breaking the rules can be bad for your health, I reserve the right to modkill for serious/repeated naughtiness.
*Strikeout is done like this (s)texttexttext(/s)
Replace the ( ) with [ ] like other tags.
It will look like this if you did it right.
