Things that will be in this game:
One town faction, one mafia faction
Events, both of the day and night variety
Spoilers for Avatar The Last Airbender
Nonstandard roles and/or mechanics
Cabbages
Fun and a good time for all
The factional NK and the TK will not be flavored, all other kills will be
Things that will not be in this game:
Jesters
Direct mod lies
Mid game alignment changes
Toxicity
Things that may be in this game:
3p (that isn't a jester, no jesters, fuck jesters now and forever)
Roles that effect the reliability of information received (i.e., godfather, miller, etc.)
There is a one use soup kill in this game. If a soup kill is attempted, it will be announced in the SOD post. Claim characters and roles with caution.
The rest of the setup info has been broken up into spoilers. Please read the setup before game start, this game will not make sense if you have read none of the setup. It isn't particularly complicated, just important!
There are four Elements in the game--Air, Water, Earth, and Fire. Every Bender is assigned an element. Non-benders ignore elements. Every element is weak to their opposite element--so Air and Earth are weak to each other, Fire and Water are weak to each other. There maybe specific events that effect this, if there are it will be announced in the thread. If an element targets their opposing element with an ability, if it is an ability that receives feedback (i.e., a rolecop) it will return "no result" or similar, if it does not receive feedback (i.e., a doctor) it will receive no feedback. These same rules apply to a normal roleblock--there will be no distinction between someone roleblocked by another player or roleblocked because they targeted someone of the opposing element. Note that the factional mafia kill will ignore elements.
Many characters in this game are Benders. Many are not. A bender will generally have a more powerful ability, but this ability will be constrained by their element. Non-benders ignore elements and are less likely to be gated, but will generally have weaker abilities. This is not a hard and fast rule, more of a general guideline. Events in the game will have a larger effect on benders than on non-benders.

First, roles were written. Then roles are assigned to players. Then alignment is randed. Then mafia are given the choice to swap their roles amongst themselves. Thus, roles are not tied to alignment and any role or character could be either alignment.
No direct mod lies (i.e., there may be a mechanic or role where some mod given information may be inaccurate, but it will be clearly delineated what information is reliable vs. potentially unreliable. Think message from one player to another delivered via the mod as an example).
Votes are plurality at deadline, 2/3ish* hammer ends the day early. The default is for mafia to decide ties, this may or may not be changed by outside factors over the course of the game. There will be a no vote option in the poll, this will not be hammerable. There will also be a sleep option, which will be hammerable.
*some creative rounding will be done at host's discretion (ie hammer may be set at 8/13 instead of 9/13), hammer number will always be in the SOD post.
The host rules are: don’t be a dick, no excessive ATE*, don’t angleshoot or quote role PMs and/or host communication, no cross game reads, idc about reading into subs or modkills do it at your own risk, GM will handle everything without consideration for alignment, GM reserves right to modify remove or add rules as needed.
*defined as: statements that directly say or imply that something in the game is having a negative impact on someone’s out of game relationships or well-being. if you believe the game is having a negative impact on your life, please contact myself and/or the Mod On Duty (jaggedjimmyjay).

@DaughterOfOmega has replaced spf.
I would encourage everyone to read the op, including the bits in spoilers. The vast majority of questions can be answered by reading the OP. Votes must be made in the poll to count, its up to you to call votes in thread or not.
Day one has begun! Hammer is at 16, eod is June 30, 1pm edt. There will be an event starting roughly 24 hours into the day, please message me before then if you'd like to participate--more info will be available in 24 hours, and it will require real time interaction/be time sensitive.
After 5 minutes of careful deliberation, I have concluded that the mafia probably havent entered thread yet

Serious talk
I have an ability that I think I can use each day that gives us two executions
I was thinking that that sounded a bit overpowered
Does anyone have any reason why I shouldn't use it (unless we get down to endgame or something)

I can't really think of a good reason not to use it other than if we get manipulated by the mafia but I guess they will try to make that happen anyway

Any extra kills that the village can direct is a good thing, but I'd wait until D2 if having it be today is a possibility.

I'm not sure waiting until d2 is the move now that the thread knows its a thing, I feel like it'd be better to use it today rather than risk getting nked

Well that makes sense then in that case. And these games have super long days compared to what I'm used to so having two executions should be fine for day 1 if people post and stuff.

She's got 8 posts, and we're on page 1 of the game. I think you've got some time to establish a read, no?

O.o
was wondering why I was given a role that from extremely-limited-memory of the show was an evil person and yet randed town

don't see why not
considering roles are unrelated to alignment I don't think this can frame people either or be negative utility in any way tbh
