This is my game. It is a non-standard Mafia game for 910 players. It will confuse and annoy you, but also amuse and titillate you, with a healthy dose of confound, irritate, perturb, frustrate, enlighten, stupify, and adore you, sometimes all at once. Do not play without consulting a doctor. That's a joke. Maybe.
Here are the rules that I blatantly stole from Zinger's game and edited to suit my needs because I am lazy and didn't want to come up with them all myself. Read them or don't, but know that ignorance of the rules won't protect you from punishments for breaking them.
The Rules
Any rule not found within these rules is not a rule.
Be respectful of the game Mod and your fellow players(I don't care about your fellow players, be mean to them if you want). Mafia can get heated at times; try to remember it is a game, and the point of the game is to have fun. If I feel you have violated the spirit of this rule, you will be removed without warning.
Do not discuss the game with anyone except via Mod-provided methods (ie. the Game Thread, Discords, etcetera).
Do not post in the Game Thread during the Night or after your death.
Day phases will last for approximately 96 hours, rounded up to the nearest hour. Night phases will last for approximately 2448 hours. Deadlines are hard set and nothing is accepted past them.
If you anticipate being absent for more than 48 hours, please give notice. Failure to do so may result in you being replaced.
During the Day, Lynches will be decided by a majority vote. Barring that, the player with the most votes at the deadline will be Lynched. If there is a tie for the most votes at the Deadline, the Day will end without a Lynchthe Day will enter a 24 hourSudden Deathround, whereby all votes are removed and a new round of voting begins except only the tied parties may be voted for, after which, if a tie still exists, the last of the tied players to make a post in the Game Thread prior to the Sudden Death extended deadline lives, while the other dies a horribly agonising death that can never ever be returned from.
The preferred correct format is "Vote: Playername", however any clear intent to vote a player regardless of the format will be accepted. Unvoting is not required to move your vote. If I do not see your vote, it may not be counted. The best way to ensure I see your vote is by making it both bold and in colour, or not putting it in line with any other text, though this is by no means a requirement. If I suspect you are attempting to hide your votes in invisible text or spoiler blocks, or if I suspect you are deliberately abusing the liberal vote formatting to deceive your fellow players as to your voting intent, you will be warned. Failure to heed such a warning will cost you your voting privileges for the remainder of the game.Votes are made in private by PM the game Mod (that's me). Your vote will be identified by your Monster type in the vote count, not by your username.
Any role that circumvents these rules takes precedence over them.
Do not discuss the balance of the game while it is in session. Save discussions of game balance for afterThis game is probably not balanced at all, so maybe just permanently shelf your criticisms of it because I don't want to hear it.
If you don't understand your role or the rules, feel free to ask me about it. I'll answer your questions if it doesn't hurt my chances of winning. Oh yeah, in case you somehow weren't aware, I'll be playing in this game too! Now you're probably thinking "But wait! How is that fair? You know everyone's roles and alignments and stuff..." To which I say... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh that's rich, you thought this game would be fair. HA!
No, but seriously, my role has an ability called Omniscience, and it's basically a passive ability that grants me knowledge of every working piece of the game, so like even if I gave this uber role to one of you, I'd still have to tell you everything. That's why it doesn't matter that I'm both a Mod and a Player, mostly. But that's enough about my role, let's talk about yours.
You each get to be a Cute Lil' Monster™. Each monster has a color that is tied to their alignment and win conditions. I.E. if you are a Pink Lil' Monster, it means you are also Pink-Aligned and have the Pink Win Condition. If you later become a Red Lil' Monster, you will also be Red-Aligned and have the Red Win Condition. You can't be a Pink Monster and have a Red Win Condition. That's not possible. It defies the laws of Cuteness, and we won't be doing any of that this game. Got it? Good.
Time to introduce you to my Cute Lil' Monsters.
Smart Lil' Monsters have already noticed that there are 9 10 Lil' Monsters and 9 10 of you. You get a gold star.
Here's how the story goes. In the beginning, there were 7 Chaos Emeralds. Yes, the very same 7 Chaos Emeralds from the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series, but for legal reasons we can't associate with them at all so just forget all about that why don't cha. Anyway, there were these 7 legally distinct Emeralds of Chaos, each with the power to alter reality in their own way, but they were lonely so they created the first monster to be their friend (we'll call her M0nster to distinguish her from the Lil' Monsters). Problem was, M0nster was forgetful and a klutz so she kept losing these really important reality warping Chaos Emeralds all over the universe. Eventually, she decided to split herself up into 10 Lil' Monsters so they could keep better track of the Chaos Emeralds. Why 10 and not 7? Base 10 math is easier than base 7 math, obviously. The 7 Chaos Emeralds were each entrusted to one Lil' Monster, who slowly changed their form to match the aura of the Chaos Emerald they got. The 3 leftover Lil' Monsters who did not get a Chaos Emerald also changed their form to better match the feeling they felt from being left out, jealousy, apathy, and confusion. This is how the world of Lil' Monsters was made, and it was beautiful and good. But then things changed. Some of the Lil' Monsters thought their form was a more perfect form than the others, and set about trying to make others conform to their auras. Some discovered there was more to life than watching over Chaos Emeralds and began to give themselves new purposes. Some decided they coveted what the others had that they lacked. As the Lil' Monsters changed on the inside, so too did they change on the outside, and the peaceful beautiful cute world of Lil' Monsters was thrown into chaos.
Only you, the Lil' Monsters, can determine its ultimate fate!
Now that this poll is officially over, it's time to congratulate Aaarrrgh for designing Hill, which has been decided by popular vote to be the Card of the Month for October 2013!

The problem with making yourself a player in your own game is you are now subject to your own rules, or more so we are exempt from treating you as more than just a player. One rule vanquished. Nine to go.
