Ruleset

Unless otherwise contradicted in my specific ruleset or setup-specific rules, Boilerplate Rules apply. Rules are shamelessly stolen from a hodgepodge of other moderators and rulesets on site and edited to my preferences.

General

• All Sitewide Rules Apply. It is your job to be familiar with them.
• Have FUN. This is a game, and therefore the most important rule is to HAVE FUN. If you are not having fun, please replace out. There is nothing wrong with replacing out of a game that is not enjoyable. I won't be upset, and I will be happy that you were willing to put fun ahead of an irrational fear of hurting my feelings.
• While having fun, don't play against your win condition. This is a very liberal interpretation. A self vote isn't playing against your win condition. Saying you are scum and outing your partner then voting them is.
• If you have the ability, editing your posts is not allowed.
• As this is a game, heated discussions are fine but personal attacks, insults, flaming, and poor sportsmanship are not. Please don't be a jerk to your fellow players.
• I am the Mod, the Mod is God. What I say goes. I am allowed to edit what goes at any given point for any reason I see fit. Generally, changes made to rules will be announced publicly.
• When dealing with rules infractions or other problems, I will always seek the solution that is least invasive to the game state. That said, infractions may result in anything from a warning to your slot being force replaced or you being modkilled, depending on the severity and nature of the offense. Mod-imposed post limiting or requests from the mod for more frequent posting are also within my wheelhouse as possible options for experimental activity based rules infractions.

Day / Night / Twilight

• A single standard day phase will be 14 days from the post the mod makes starting the day.
• A single standard night phase will be 48 hours from the post the mod makes starting the night.
• Twilight will last from when a yeeting occurs until the mod makes a post changing the game phase.
• During twilight, you may continue to post in-thread, even if you were yeeted. If you have a factional PT that day talk is prohibited in, Twilight counts as night. You may begin posting to strategize with your faction once a yeeting occurs. This rule may change depending on the setup/mod's discretion.
• All roles with non-mandatory night actions who fail to submit a night action before the deadline, will lose that night action.
• All roles with mandatory night actions who fail to submit a night action before the deadline, will have that night action randomized at my discretion.
• If all faction members/roles with night actions post in their PTs/send me a DM specifically requesting a early end to the night phase, I will honor it. Be forewarned, this could lead to additional information given to other players outside of my control.
• If you are going to be V/LA you may send me night actions early in case you miss a night deadline, and they will be honored.
• Deadline Extensions may be requested, but will rarely be granted.
• If you have multiple possible night actions, or multiple players able to commit a single night action you must specify, or it will be randomized.

Posting/Voting

• Do not use encrypted text, hidden text, small text, or any other hard-to-read text when posting.
• Once you have been killed, you are out of the game. Do not post anymore until the game is over. "Bah" post if you need to, but no game related content.
• Voting will be done with bold or vote tags
• Voting will not attempt to be hidden. Attempts to hide your vote such as in spoiler tags may or may not be counted, at my discretion.
• Voting for other living players in game, for "End Phase" or some other form of ending the phase without a yeeting occurring, or "End Game" to end the game in a draw and have everyone loose are authorized.
• Unless otherwise specified, a yeeting or a phase end with no yeeting will occur when a majority as calculated by number of living players divided by two rounded up. A vote to end the game in a draw must be unanimous by all living players.
• Voting for the mod is authorized. Votes on the mod, and a successful mod Yeeting will incur interesting punishments. Try it at your own peril.
• Unvotes are welcome but not required.
• If a majority is not reached by the deadline, a Plurality Yeeting will occur. This means the player with the most votes. If there is a tie, the player to receive the most votes first will be yeeted. Doing nothing is only acceptable if it is the players' intention to do nothing. Riding the deadline will still cause a yeeting to occur.
• Once a hammer occurs, no votes or unvotes will prevent the yeeting from happening.

Communicating with the Moderator

• I make mistakes every now and then. If you notice an error with the vote counts, deadlines, or anything else related to the game, please let me know by posting a bolded statement on it's own line starting with @Mod or some varient thereof and I will correct the issue.
• Due to the nature of the game, role related questions may come up. If you have questions about your actual role, I will not respond to them in-thread. Please use any PTs you have access to or DMs to ask me. If you have a mechanics based question about how a specific possible role would be utilized in this game I reserve the right to respond or not respond at my sole discretion. Don't abuse this to try to mod-confirm people. I will not be amused.
• Quoting or otherwise attempting to replicate mod communications will result in punishment, at my discretion. If in doubt, ask me.
• If you need to get my attention, just include @Mod or @Maruchan in your post. Also, bolding will help catch my eye.
• You may request a personal PT/notes PT. Discord Servers may be requested in lieu of personal PTs/notes PTs/hydra PTs.

Miscellaneous

• If you have any problems with another player, send me a PM and I will do my best to resolve the issue.
• Threatening to report another player to change their behavior isn't OK. PM me, Report them, Or leave it be. This is using out-of-game influence.
• My color is Chocolate, don't use it.
• As the moderator, my word is final. Please respect my instructions and my decisions.
• I reserve the right to change these rules during the game if necessary. If this happens, I will inform everybody of the rule change in the thread.
• I live on the US East Coast, and am therefore on East Coast Time. However, I also have absolutely no set schedule, so might sleep from 1pm to midnight, 3am to noon, or whenever I feel like it. Sorry if I am unavailable at a given time.

Experimental Activity Rules

• Due to site-wide meta (including my own!) I want to try to set some activity rules. These may change, and if they do I will let you know. If you feel there is a better way to handle any of these, feel free to DM me.
• No single player should have greater than 33% of the posts in a given day phase if there are greater than 5 players. Learn to think before you speak, and condense your thoughts into fewer posts.
• No single living player should have more than 10 times the number of posts as another living player in a given phase. Give others a chance to catch up to the game state before flooding the game with more information.
• Every player should have at least one post of content, once per day, if they aren't V/LA. This is specifically vague, because once per day could mean 48 hours sometimes (early morning day 1, late night day 2), but not a single post every 48 hours (as thats a single post per 2 days). This rule is flexible and up to interpretation. Breaking this rule will have numerous chances for warnings before any action is taken, and actions taken won't necessarily be harsh.
• Back-and-forth debates between 3 or less players in a heated discussion should never be more than 2 pages long. If a back and forth heated debate is pushing the boundaries of this, but you think the debate is *REALLY IMPORTANT*, you may post to signify that you intend to continue the debate 12 hours or more later, at which point the restrictions on the interaction are lifted. This is to prevent spewing in heated moments stuff that is not important when cooler heads prevail, but not to discourage important content from being stated. This is waived if there are 4 or fewer players alive.
• Triple-, Quadruple-, etc. posting isn't cool. Learn to use the multi-quote function, use the [post] tags to link to specific posts you want to reply to in a quick reply, etc. Don't make a habit of this.
• Rushing the game is Not Cool. Day 1 is required to last at least 4 real life days, or 15 in-game pages. Day two is required to last at least 3 real life days, or 10 in-game pages. Day 3 is required to last at least 2 real-life days, or 5 in-game pages. Hammer votes made prior to these deadlines will be counted, but will result in a twilight phase until the requirement is met. This minimum deadline is waived if there are five (5) or fewer living players. This rule may also be waived by unanimous consent of all living players including the recently hammered player. The intention behind this rule is to give everyone a chance to speak. It also encourages players not to spam everything at once but to take their time to formulate their thoughts.
• "Meme-Posts" containing only random gifs, videos, a naked vote/unvote, etc should be kept to a minimum.
• Possible penalties for breaking activity rules include verbal reminders from the mod. possible post restrictions limiting you even further, possible loss of your vote, possible penalty votes on you (hated-esque modifiers), or in situations where you just outright refuse to listen to the mod after multiple attempts to curb the activity, force-repalcement. These are not meant to punish you unfairly, and will be loosely moderated, but will exist.
