Universal Rules
Unless otherwise stated by the host, these rules apply to all TL Mafia Games
Cheating:
Cheating includes (but is not limited to):
1. Posting after death. You may have one polite goodbye post, but it may not contain any potentially game-changing information.
2. Ruining the game by doing something like hand out your mafia's member list to the town.
3. Logging on to someone else's account to get their role or looking over someone's shoulder to get their role.
4. Comparing role PM times to determine roles.
5. Posting screenshots of your inbox.
6. Discussing or posting any PM you receive from a host.
7. Getting yourself modkilled to help your team. Your non-majority-decided death may not be used as a bargaining chip.
8. Signing up more than once using smurf accounts.
9. Betting items outside of the game in exchange for in-game benefits.
Cheating is not tolerated here. The punishment will be severe.

Question Font:

Smurfs:

Smurfs must PM the host because TL doesn't allow multiple accounts otherwise. If the host is unaware of smurfs, you (and/or your smurf) can be banned for having multiple accounts.

Spam:
Spam is not tolerated, nor is any off-topic material. Do not discuss Proleague here. Do not talk about Starcraft II here. Play Mafia here.
Editing:
Editing is not allowed for any reason. Editing will result in a warning. After that, you will be modkilled. This is the one part of the site where it is okay to be double posting, even triple-posting. While I ask for everybody to post as concisely as possible, post again if you have to edit anything.
Inappropriate posts:
If you want to post something insulting or inappropriate and know the TL mods would have a problem with it elsewhere, don't post it here. If you do, a host will warn you or modkill you and request that you be banned from future games. The hosts have the final say on what is inappropriate. If you do not like how someone is talking to you, please PM a host or Flamewheel before involving the TL staff. If you are unsatisfied with how the situation is resolved, then you can appeal to the TL staff normally.
Reporting posts:
The report button is a nice feature for regular TL, but not for this forum. We prefer to deal with things in house if possible to avoid confusion among the TL staff. If you have a problem with how someone is posting, talk to the host, co-host, or Flamewheel before using your report button. Please do not use your report button for anything other than inappropriate posts which you feel are not being dealt with adequately.
Modkills:
If you break any of the above rules, you will be modkilled and will be banned according to the TL Mafia Ban List. Please refer to it for questions about your punishment.
Ban discussions:
Please wait until this game is over to talk about modkills and bans resulting from this game.
Play to win.
This means you play your best to help your team win while you are alive and in the game. However, this does not mean that you should try to win by being a jerk to the other players so they all want to quit playing.
This also means that you cannot leave the game without a good reason without a ban. These situations will be dealt with on a case by case basis. PM your host if you need to leave the game.
You have been warned.
General Setup Rules:
- Closed Setup
- Full Role Reveal on Death
- Open Signups
- Extended Majority Lynch
- PMs: Sadly, no
- Clues: No
- Elections: No
- Replacements: Find your own replacements
- Time Cycle: 48/24, Deadline at 8PM PST
- Coaching: No Public Coaches
Host-Specific Rules:
Signups:
Signups are open to almost everyone. If you have a bad history of inactivity, spam, lurking, or some other undesirable trait, don't be surprised if you don't end up on the final player list.
Signups are open until all 20 spots have been filled. The game starts as soon as all spots are filled.
Spam:
Spam is not tolerated. One warning and you are in modkill range. No second warnings. Consolidate your posts and keep them focused towards contributing towards the game. Feel free to clarify anything with me.
Activity:
You must post in this thread at least once per every 24 hours and vote every day while you are alive. If you fail to do so you will be modkilled. If you are obviously trying to skirt the modkill requirement, you will be modkilled.
If you have to miss a 24 hour or more period, please inform me ahead of time and there won't be a problem. If you are really active but happen to miss a vote, no big deal.
Account Sharing:
On the off chance that anyone wants to account share, please let me know and it will be allowed. Any account sharing will be made public knowledge.
Manner:
Respect your fellow players and keep a good atmosphere. I will be very harsh on insults and players who create a bad atmosphere.
Game-specific rules:
This is a closed setup. All you know is the following:
Total Mafia = 6
Town win condition: You win when all threats to the Town are eliminated.
Mafia win condition: You win when you control majority of the voting power in the Town or when nothing can stop you from outright killing everyone.
