Game Rules
1. GM – Ment. Skype: nickelprog. The GM is always right. If the GM is wrong, reread this point.
2. Changing your nickname, avatar, signature, or personal information during the game is prohibited. If it is vital for you to change your information, discuss the changes with the GM beforehand. If you have been killed but wish to edit your profile, you must take a screenshot of your profile before the change and post it in "general discussions" with the title "profile".
3. The game begins with night. At night, players send NA (Night Actions) according to their role (if you decide not to use an NA – notify the GM, otherwise it will be considered as being offline and may lead to a modkill). The sooner the GM receives all NAs, the earlier day will arrive.
Night limit – 22 hours; after this, the GM has the right not to accept NAs. Some NAs may involve the player receiving a result from the GM (checks, theft of NA). No one has the right to write anything in the game thread at night, even in "deleted posts". If someone writes something as a deleted post, the GM will ask moderators to delete the message so that no traces remain.
4. Day lasts exactly 24 hours. In extremely rare cases, an earlier or later end of the day is possible (this requires at least the consent of the majority of players).
5. Votes must be formatted in bold/large/brightly highlighted font in the format "Execute " (creativity is allowed – within reason), otherwise the vote will not be counted. If you do not believe anyone should be executed today, announce that you abstain from voting in the format "Hang no one". If you wish to cancel your vote, write "Do not execute " in the same font. One message may contain one vote and one vote cancellation.
Execution requires only a majority of votes. If a player reaches the "required" number of votes, they will still be hanged only after the day ends and only if the votes do not change. If the majority vote as "Hang no one", then the day ends without any players being executed.
Manipulations with votes by corresponding roles are displayed only when the day closes and only if they affect the voting results.
Compiling lists of votes by players is encouraged with bonuses to morale (just not after every single post, please).
6. Clues about killers in reports are given based on the user's profile (avatar, signature, other profile components, and in rare cases, nickname). If a kill was unsuccessful, the killer, like all mortals, finds out exclusively from the newspaper. No clues are given for failed kills. Reports also contain a hint about the role of the deceased. The killer may plant 1 additional clue at the crime scene. It must point to them and be original (i.e., do not leave clues of the "for the super-observant" variety). Regarding the difficulty of these clues, there is considerable freedom, but the GM still reserves the right not to accept a specific clue, with or without explanation.
7. Discussing the game outside this thread (i.e., in DMs, ICQ, Skype, etc.) is allowed only if you have a role that permits it.
In groups, decisions are made collectively; the final word remains with the group leader. If any member of the group is offline, the group leader may make a decision without them.
The Mafia has the ability to send up to two NAs, no more than one of which can be a kill.
8. Do not edit your messages. Try to write without errors from the start. Moderators and coordinators may edit their own or others' messages if they contain a gross violation of the rules.
9. Eliminated players and those not participating in the game are prohibited from writing in the game thread, discussing the game with participants, or posting information about their own/others' roles. All comments – after the end of the game.
10. It is prohibited to reveal your / someone else's role, or its elements, as well as information obtained through them, in public places or among players who are not in your group. The same applies to information about other players. Phrases like "and I also know something about him that I can't say" – a violation, regardless of whether you actually know something or are lying. Statements such as "I checked", "according to my information, which I cannot disclose", "I know for sure" - etc., are prohibited. Unsubstantiated shouts like "he is MAF!", "I am Town!" etc., are allowed.
To avoid violating this rule, try to frame your thoughts as assumptions or as an IMHO based, for example, on clues or behavior. It is permitted to reference the rules, the GM, your own posts, or other players' posts, as well as any external sources where you dug up some info via clues.
11. Modkill (in rare cases - replacement) is performed:
- In case of a gross violation of the rules or a repeated minor violation.
- If for two consecutive days, nights, or a day and night, a player shows no activity without notifying the GM about possible offline status.
- It may be performed at the player's request in the event of circumstances that prevent the player from taking an active part in the game.
12. First-night immunity (impossibility of killing a person possessing it on the first night of the game) is given to the following participants:
- those killed on the first night in the previous game;
- the leader of the previous game;
- newcomers (players playing "Mafia" on our forum for the first time);
- players who missed three or more previous games.
13. There are no notes. However, a journalist's Q&A may be published in the newspaper. Questions are passed through the leader (2 pieces) at the end of the day (if it is impossible to write them at the end of the day, it is better to do so as an extension of it. The inability for any reason to find the interviewee during the night is on the journalist's conscience if they did not take care in advance). The interviewee answers them through the GM. One answer is true, the second is false. They are published in the newspaper in a stylized form with the interviewee's signature (invented while answering questions; the signature should point to the profile, though not too directly). Restrictions apply to the questions. Briefly: you cannot ask questions that would unambiguously reveal the player's side. Example of prohibited question pairs:
--Is a strawberry red?
--Are you maf?
(if the player is maf, the answers to these questions will always be different).
--Are you maf from the first team?
--Are you maf from the second team?
(if the player is maf, the answers to these questions are always the same. If town/maniac -- different)
Example of allowed questions:
--Do you still have a lot of money?
--Are you protected from kills?
Except, of course, for cases where such two questions obviously reveal the game side.
Abstract questions can be asked, questions about understanding the game, questions that allow answers other than "yes"/"no", etc., all in accordance with this rule. The rule is experimental, but I believe it should work.
14. All coincidences with real physical or legal entities are absolutely accidental. Do not look for any hidden meaning in this setting; there is none here.
15. Before the game starts, it is recommended to read the setting and voice objections regarding balance (if any), as well as ask questions. Otherwise, the GM essentially relieves themselves of responsibility for misunderstandings or complaints about balance )
