Game Mechanics
- The first phase will run on a 48/24 cycle. All subsequent phases will run on a 24/24 cycle.
- Votes will always be changeable. For votes to count, they must be cast in the poll. The host would appreciate if players also announced their votes in the thread, but this is not a rule.
- Role claiming and info dumping are legal. Do what you want at your own discretion.
- All roles, characters, and alignments are randomly assigned. A role's ability and alignment are not explicitly tied to the character that role represents.
- All players win with their faction regardless of survival.
Mafia 101
- No illegal BTSC. All game-related communication should take place in this thread unless the host specifically provides an alternative channel for you.
- No double-targeting.
- No editing posts.
- No angleshooting; this means any behavior which seeks to retrieve information through any improper channels or loopholes. If you have any questions about what is or is not allowed, please ask the host privately.
- I would like to ask that all questions about the game in general be asked in private as well.
- There are no strict participation rules, but I reserve the right to replace a player if I feel their inactivity is hurting the game. Additionally, you may request a replacement if for any reason you feel you're unable to participate sufficiently in this game.
- Absolutely no paintball!
- Be nice. Treat your fellow human beings with courtesy and respect. Remember that this a game that all of us are playing for the pure fun of it.
- If at any point you feel the emotions of the game are negatively affecting the environment, do not hesitate to contact the MOD/facilitator.
- Dead players should post in dead red font, and should refrain from making on-topic posts.
- Non-players should post in NP blue, and should likewise refrain from on-topic content.
- Off-topic content from living players should be in OT Green.
- This is the host color. Please avoid using it unless you're the host.
Do not be afraid to ask (in private) if any rules need clarifying, adjusting, or addition.

Roles have been distributed and the thread is open. Please message me if you think you should have received a role card but did not.
It is currently Day 0. Day 1 will begin in roughly 24 hours.
Good luck and have fun!
Also, if this host color is too dark for you, let me know and I will change it. I wanted a shade of blue to keep with the show's color scheme, but I needed to be able to easily differentiate it from non-player blue.
Problem solved?

Heyo, I'm your mod. If someone sets the room on fire, PM me and I'll help you cope. Or if you just want to chat, that's cool too.
Remember, this is just a game. Have fun! And PM me if that fails.

[mention]Sloonei[/mention], you may want to consider a slightly milder blue for your host color; it's a bit difficult to read on the gray skin. You're the boss though, boss.

General alert to all civilians of Greendale:
The need for a well-paced thread is obvious. So do your best on that front, please. More than that though, let's be aware from the start that urgency is paramount if we are to win this game. There are only 12 players here, and the cycles will be 24/24. This game will be completely over in a blink; we won't have a lot of time to solve it. There is no time to waste.
I know many of y'all are now in two games. Handle that as you see fit (I will not speak of the other active game again). Just please ensure this one gets a fair portion of your attention. Thanks!

calling it day 0, jay is scum. this was his obligatory post calling for a shit ton of activity because this is what civ jay is like, whereas he enjoys to let the game ride by slower when he's scum. his post was what we typically expect of a civ jjj, but it's all a mind game. he's using language that is more courteous and less urgent, which is in conflict with the message he's trying to convey there. fight me on that.

Courtesy is necessary for a civilian leader who hopes to have civilian followers.
As for the truth of my intentions to pace the game, meh. That will be apparent as we play.

Your read on me is right! And I think maybe 2015 but yeah you're right. I woulda been super bummed if I got a lame mafia role. Also I thought your rules post was because you're that dean dude or whatever and he always is saying all those rules and stuff.

To be honest I don't think your accusation was stupid or baseless. I have said many times that when I am bad I make fake and fruitless appeals to hasten threads. So it's appropriate to look for evidence of that.
My desire to win will be clear soon enough if it isn't already.
