Gameplay
1. Days are 48 hours long. I will do everything in my power to keep poll deadlines between 9:00 pm and 9:30 pm EST.
2. Nights are 24 hours long, but all PMs must be sent to the host within 23 hours so night posts can be written in a timely fashion.
3. Only those players who have BTSC may communicate with each other outside of the game thread but ONLY in designated BTSC threads or chat rooms. For everyone else, no game-related discussion is permitted outside the game thread.
4. Votes in the poll are the only votes that count. It's helpful but not mandatory that you declare your vote in the thread in a way that stands out to the host.
5. All votes are changeable all the way up to the deadline.
6. A tied lynch will result in no lynch. Votes matter. There will be no coin flips to determine lynch results.
6) Standard alignment wincons are in effect unless otherwise stated.
7) Dead is dead; you don't get to come back from that. Dead players will have their BTSC right removed.
8) Roles will be revealed upon death.
9) All players get to vote via PM for game MVP at the end of the game.
10) This game is a mostly-open setup.

Rules
1) Respect your fellow players, your host, and your Facilitator.
1a) Don't be an asshat.
1b) Don't get butthurt.
2) If you feel like another player is out of line or making/taking things personal/ly, contact the Facilitator, Spacedaisy.
3) No BTSC regarding the game outside of the game thread(s). Players are told in their rolecard if they have BTSC. If you don't have it, don't engage in it. Violating this rule will result in a modkill.
4) No editing or deleting posts.
5) Self-voting is permitted.
6) Double-targeting is not allowed.
7) Info-dumping and/or power-role-claiming is legal. Do so at your own peril. Faction claiming for the purposes of POE is prohibited.
8) Off-topic posts should be in OT Green.
9) Dead players are to post in Dead Red.
10) Non-Players should post in Non-Player Blue.
11) This is the host's color. Do not post in this color.
12) Participation is polite to everyone involved. If I feel you may not be paying attention to the game, I will reach out to you. Replacements and modkills may be employed if necessary. If you sign up, please play. If you can't play, request replacement.

Roles

CIVVIES:
Civvies are divided into two overlapping groups:

CHRISTIANS:
Keith Shover- Founder and head pastor of New Dominion Independent Bible Church. Each night he can make an intercessory prayer capable of protecting other Christians. His power cannot protect anyone who is just a dentist or mafia. He is not told if his protections are successful or not.
Mark Willard- vannilla Christian civvie
Janice Curry- vanilla Christian civvie
Rachel Powell- vanilla Christian civvie

CHRISTIAN DENTISTS:
Doug Seltenheim- vanilla Christian dentist
William Pucino- vanilla Christian dentist
Shannon Miller- vanilla Christian dentist
Oscar Brisbin- vanilla Christian dentist

DENTISTS:
Gladys Campbell- Executive administrative assistant for the American Dental Association. Each night, she can check one player to see if they have ADA credentials, thus determining if they are a dentist or not. Checks on the mafia or the four roles that are just Christian will yield no result.
Horace Speck- vanilla dentist
Jennings Robeson- vanilla dentist
Lisa Chapman- vanilla dentist


MAFIA:
The mafia selects one player to kill each night. They may decide on the kill as a group. The kill does not have to be assigned to a specific member of the mafia, as there are no blocking powers in the game. If they fail to submit a kill request or abstain, there will be no kill.

Cadbury Bunny- vanilla baddie
Easter Bunny- vanilla baddie
Demon Rabbit of Caerbannog- He has survived for centuries. Crafty and tough, he cannot be lynched until both his teammates are dead. *secrets*

You might think that three rabbits entering a bustling urban hotel would be noticed. You might also think that someone would see them stealing a managers access card, a room key, and studying room reservations and the schematics of the building.

Then again, good help is hard to find and many front lobby workers aren't paid a living wage, so why should they care? Besides, if people weren't spectacularly failing at their jobs, this story couldn't play out, so take a double-shot of suspension of disbelief and buckle up and enjoy the ride.


"That is your plan?" Caerbannog chuckled. "I respect your ambition, Cadbury, but you are such an armature that it makes me laugh."

"What?" Cadbury asked. "You don't think we should make a statement right out of the gate?"

"Oh, indeed I do," Caerbannog replied. "You and Easter stick with your plan for the dentists. Allow me to make our presence known to the Christians."

"I think that is a fair arrangement," Easter chimed in, hoping to keep the awkward peace. "We should start slow and simple. Don't let them think something is amiss too soon."

"Yes," Caerbannog hissed, "we tease them first during the day and strike out with vengeance at night."

Who remembers when Trix had the competition to name the Trix Rabbit, because he needed a name to get Trix?

I named him "Elroy."

Hi new gameX I’m out and about most this weekend so I won’t be very contributory.

If my ... contributions are lower than usual ... forgive me.

No, don't.

What, do you have something else going on?

Gladys Campbell was always told that, for working around a bunch of dentists, she had a great sense of humor. She viewed it as a necessity. Dentists, for the most part, were either completely humorless or total cornballs. Somehow she always found a nice middle ground that kept things light in every situation.

This stunt, however, made her angry. Oh sure, someone else probably thought it was hilarious to move a vending machine full of Cadbury chocolate next to the ADA convention registration table. Had it happened to someone else, she admitted to herself, she would probably get a chuckle out of it. But she had to sit next to it all day, dealing with the sideways looks and redundant questions as dentist after dentist filed into the morning seminar.

The hotel workers, of course, played dumb and swore to her that they didn't know who moved it there. Well, Gladys didn't claw her way to the Executive Administrative Assistant role just to be made a joke of by this prank. No sir, she would get to the bottom of it one way or another.


Keith Shover sighed. It had been a great Easter. His flock was growing and his 'Christ, Not Candy' message was really starting to take off. God works in mysterious ways but he knew better than to think this was a divine message.

He was used to being picked on, laughed at, and dismissed. Perhaps he should have known better than to hold his convention in such a godless city like Chicago. But, he reminded himself, prophets and disciples were called into the heart of wickedness to spread God's word.

He picked up the broken crucifix and cleaned up the animal feces that someone spread all over his pamphlets. The show must go on, after all.

I should try to have fun. It's becoming increasingly difficult in Mafia.
