ETIQUETTE

1. An above-average level of activity is expected in this game. You are not expected to post for the whole 48 hours, but you are expected to keep up to speed with the topic. Posting only a handful of times a day is not an acceptable level of activity. If you expect to be unavoidably absent for a short period (less than 24 hours) at any point in the game, inform the host in advance. Good activity is critical to a good game of mafia and going AWOL is not fun for anyone. You need at least 5 meaningful posts during the day. If you cannot reach this, I will replace you and I will likely do it without warning.
2. Play to win. There is no such thing as being in an unwinnable position in mafia, however hopeless it may seem. If you are patently not trying, and/or sabotaging your faction, you will be on grounds for a modkill.
3. You are forbidden from talking to another player about the game outside the topic, unless you have a special board, or permission from the host to do so. You are forbidden from posting in the topic during the night phase. You are forbidden from editing or deleting posts. This includes players who have been eliminated from the game, and I would appreciate if spectators would do the same.
4. Do not post/pass on messages or pictures from another player into the topic. Do not post audio clips into the topic.
5. Remember to check your messages before posting in each new day, even if you are not expecting correspondence from the host. There may be something you need to be aware of before posting.
6. Do not attempt to bet, or stake a claim on outside forces during the game i.e. do not 'swear on your mother's life' that you are telling the truth or threaten 'to quit mafia' if something doesn't go the way you want it to. This will result in a swift modkill, as soon as it's brought to my attention. Even if the player in question is not town.
7. Play nice. Deliberate intimidation, harassment or verbal abuse of another player in a malicious and uncalled for fashion may lead to a modkill. Mafia is a game first and foremost, and while your own fun should be priority #1, everybody else's should be priority #1a.
8. Do what the Host says.
9. If I forgot an obvious rule, too bad, don't break it, etc. I reserve the right to modify these rules within reason if I forgot a rule or something similar.

MODKILL NOTES:
1. Do not threaten to modkill yourself. Even threatening to modkill yourself is grounds for a modkill so do not do it. If you feel overwhelmed, immediately contact me. Do not even post in the topic that you are asking for a replacement. Simply contact me.
2. Do not do anything that can be meta'D for out of game reasons. Do not talk about any communication you have from me at all, other than your role PM. Things outside the scope of actually playing the game cannot be brought in for any reason, and if you try to I will modkill you for it.
3. There is no benefit for mod killing yourself, so don't even consider it. A town modkill immediately ends the day. A scum modkill will allow the day to continue. There is no strategy to your benefit or your faction's benefit. Do not do it.
4. Be extremely careful about posting at the end of day. Be aware of when day ends. You cannot post after the time limit. There may be some minor leeway in certain circumstances, but it is on you to be aware when deadline is and not post after it.
