Section I: General Game Guidelines
1. ALL communications regarding ongoing games is prohibited. Do not mention anything
about this game outside of the game thread and dead chat/spectator chat. It doesn’t
matter if you think it will have no affect on the game, as long as it is ongoing you are
expected to treat this game as though it doesn’t exist. If someone sends you a message
about the game, please screenshot and send it to the hosts asap.
2. Do not ever directly quote private communication with the moderators. You may not
directly quote the wording from your role PM, if you want to claim you must paraphrase
instead. In addition to role PMs, private communication also includes questions to the
mod and private communication with other players such as secret chats. If you’re ever
unsure about what you can and cannot say, run it by the moderators first.
3. Be sportsmanlike and respectful to the other players. Remember that there is a real
person behind the computer screen and be mindful of their feelings. As a general rule,
attacking someone's play, reasoning, or opinions is acceptable; attacking someone with
personal insults is not.
4. Only living players and game moderators may post in the game thread. If you are
dead, do not post whatsoever. There will be a dead chat to talk in instead. If you are not
in the game, do not post whatsoever. There will be a spec that for you to join instead if
you wish.
5. You must play to your win condition. No throwing the game for your own team.
6. If you ever have a question about the game rules or setup, you are encouraged to
message the hosts. We are here to help ~
7. All forum rules of MyAnimeList still apply. See the Site & Forum Guidelines for further
details.
8. All moderator decisions are final.
Section II: Phases
1. Each Day phase will last for 24 hours, except for Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, which will last
48 hours.
2. Day phases may be extended up to 24 hours whenever a player replaces in.
3. Each Day, players may request a 24-hour extension as well. If at least three
players do this, I’ll consider one, but this is a one-time thing so use it wisely.
4. Each Night phase will last for 24 hours.
5. Living players may post in the game thread at Night, but it is not required.
6. Players with Night actions must submit their actions to the hosts via PM at least 1 hour
before the end of the phase.
Section III: Voting and Lynching
1. This game uses a plurality lynch system. The player with the most votes at the end of the
phase will be lynched. There is no lynch lock system in place.
2. Tied votes will result in a no lynch on Day 1 only. From Day 2 onwards, tied votes will
result in a RNG lynch between all players. Please note that a no-lynch
is still possible if a majority of players vote for no-lynch.
3. All votes must be bolded, like this: Vote: Crossbell. If your vote is not bolded, it does
not count.
4. Additionally, please try to make your votes on a new line if possible. This is not required,
but it helps me out a lot with visibility, and in exchangeyou will be rewarded
with frequent and accurate votecounts.
5. In order to remove your vote, unvite in bold like this: Unvote: Crossbell. Unvoting is
not required before placing a new vote.
Section IV: The Mafia
1. The mafia have access to a secret chat where they may discuss with no limitations.
They may talk freely at Night as well as during Day.
2. The mafia has the ability to kill one player every Night, however they must choose a
member of the mafia team to perform that kill.
3. A member of the mafia cannot perform a kill and use an ability in the same Night.
However, this rule does not apply if they are the last member of the mafia team
remaining.
Section V: Inactivity
1. Inactivity is frowned upon and makes the game boring. So please be as active as you
can.
2. In order to meet the minimum activity requirements, you must make at least 5 posts
that contribute to the game state during each Day phase. If you do not meet this activity
requirement, you will receive a prod.
3. If you do not meet the activity requirement again, you will be replaced or modkilled at
the moderator’s discretion. Don’t let this happen to you !

♠️ The Starside Hotel ♠️
In addition to the above, we have a spicy sidegame prepared for you !
The Starside Hotel is a minigame designed to accompany the main setup, in which players can place bets on various aspects of the main game. Essentially, you will be gambling with the mafia players’ lives for your own amusement. Sounds fun, right ?
This minigame is designed to require very low time-commitment from it’s players. It is perfect for anyone who wants to follow along with the main game in an interactive way, but doesn’t have the time available to play in it themselves. If that idea sounds interesting to you or you just want to help me test out this experimental mechanic, go ahead and sign yourself on up : )
If you do want to play in the main game, no worries, you’ll have a chance to join the Starside Hotel after your death.
To join, type Join Starside: MyName or just Spectate: MyName

Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths, Enwroughtwithgolden andsilver light, The blue and thedim andthe dark cloths Of night andlight andthe half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

"I am the Bone of my Sword
Steel is my Body and Fire is my Blood
I have created over a Thousand Blades
Unaware of Loss,
Nor aware of Gain.
Withstood Pain to create Weapons, Waiting for one’s Arrival
I have no Regrets. This is the only Path
My whole life was Unlimited Blade Works"
I look forward to investing my time into this game. I hope all of you find it an enjoyable game, even if you find me detestable.
