Rules:

0. I am the host of the game, and my word is law. I reserve the right to modkill/godkill or substitute anyone out those who break the rules.*

1 (a). You can only talk about the game in the game thread unless specified otherwise. Once you are dead you cannot talk to anyone about the game. Knowledge acquired after death cannot be transferred from a dead player to a living player.
1 (b). Outside influences (eg. Threatening, bribes, wagers, promises, alliances, trust tells) are not tolerated and will be dealt with severely.
1 (c). Sportmanship should be shown. Salting, raging or ranting will not be tolerated. At the end of the day, mafia is played for fun. The general rule of thumb is attack the play, not the player.

2. Every user has a role PM. Role PMs may not be shown to other users at any time. All forms of sharing of role PMs is banned. If anyone finds a person encouraging others to share their role PMs or sharing role PMs themselves, please be sure to report it.

3 (a). You may vote users during the day by posting in bold "Vote: (user)", unvote users by using "Unvote: (user)". Votes will not be counted if they do not follow this format.
3 (b). Votes can be in shortform as long as I understand who you are voting.

4. Do not edit or delete your posts, if you need to correct something make another post.

5. Only sign up if you know you're going to be at least fairly active. If you do not post/are not active during the day phase, you will be prodded. If you fail to post after the previous prod or require excessive prods, you will be subbed out.*

6. Night talking is disallowed.

7. Extensions will be granted according to the situation.*

8. Actions should be sent during night phase through Forum Pm. If you do not have an action, please send an "idle". Failure of sending any actions during the night phase will result in the host deciding your action for you.

9. I might not be in time to end day at deadline or hammer. In this case the game will enter into Twilight. You are allowed to post but not allowed to vote or unvote users.

10. Angleshooting is prohibited. This is included but not limited to submeta, hostmeta and using out of game information to form reads. Punishable by modkill.*

11. Do not try to exploit any loopholes or circumvent the rules.

*-will be judged at the discretion of me

He's a good and fair mod. I'm more bothered by no night talk than anything but that's me.

 

[vetschoolsletmeinplease]

I have a really really busy week next week so I’ll watch from the side! 🥰

 

[samac]

I have to sit out a few games so people move past the betrayal, y’all have fun!

I JUST OFFERED TO LET THE CALLIES HANG OUT TOGETHER SINCE Y’ALL WERE GETTING DIVORCED

I wasn’t trying to steal your Callie

Oh we're divorced alright. And since youre the pocketed BFF I have to cut ties with you too unfortunately.

YOU DONT GET TO DIVORCE ME

 

[Stagg737]

Salting, raging or ranting will not be tolerated. At the end of the day, mafia is played for fun. The general rule of thumb is attack the play, not the player.

I feel like this automatically excludes me from this game. Can we still salt specific terrible moves? (Like me not seering anyone last game? lol)

I have to sit out a few games so people move past the betrayal, y’all have fun!

No, no. You're a policy vote from now on. You've earned it!

Well he can’t really divorce her since she killed him... but I guess he can try.

Thats why I said we're already divorced. She just did it in an extreme way.

Shots fired. I told you if you were village I'd remind you that you're dumb after the game. You're dumb (idr why, but the salt was flowing freely, lol)

 

[alleycat03]

Do you have a Callie as well?? Cubs and I both have calico Callies haha

 

[supershorty]

Can't, i'm in the middle of a move

Once you finish moving in, are you going to get a couple of kittens?

 

[Lawpy]

No cattos yet

Once you finish moving in, are you going to get a couple of kittens?

🤔

 

[Lawpy]

i just got steamrolled by a string of okays for a dumb thing i posted weeks ago in allo that getting more okays here means i probably deserve them

Judging from our interactions in the past, you'll be more than fine

rule 0 was a thing last time when you played

that response to stagg was referencing his time in the first Choose Your Own

My rule 0 comment was just a joke, and I thought Stagg was referencing the game that just ended.
