** RULES **
Day and Night:

• The game will run in day and night cycles. Day actions and only be used during the day, night actions can only be used at night.
  
• The day will end if, all players have voted and all players with day actions have either used their day actions, or passed on their day actions.
  
• The day will end if 36 hours have passed.
  
• Missing a total of two days/nights will lead to your dropping out of the game.
  

Actions:

• Actions must be colored to be considered.
  
• Each player gets exactly one day action at the start of every day, and one night action at the start of every night.
  
• Actions can not be redacted. Once you PM me a colored action it is final.
  
• Voting is not an action.
  
• It is the players responsibility to make sure they get their night actions to me once the night starts. I will not PM them requesting a night action.
  
• Day actions are declared publicly in the thread. Night actions are PMed to me.
  
• Day actions can not be used on the first day.
  

Voting:

• Votes must be colored to be considered.
  
• Elections for general will be held on each day that begins without a sitting general.
  
• Elections for lynching will be held on each day except for the first.
  
• You are allowed to change your vote.
  
• In the case of a tie, the player who was voted for first will "win" the election.
  
• Aside from abstaining, you're also allowed to vote for "no lynch" or "no general." If that vote wins, then a lynching won't take place, or a general won't be elected.
  
• Votes for a dead player count as a "no lynch" or "no general" vote.
  

Death:

• When you die, your roles and alignment are revealed publicly.
  
• Players are dead if and only if I announce that fact publicly in the thread.
  
• Dead players are not allowed to post in the thread.
  
• Dead players are not allowed to communicate game effecting information to living players in any way.
  

Cheating:

• You are not allowed to screenshot, take a video of or quote from anything I PM you unless I say otherwise.
  
• The implication of this, is that there is no way for you to prove to other players that you are a scientist for instance. This is intentional.
  

Win conditions:

• The zerg win if all the settlers are dead.
  
• The settlers win if all the zerg are dead.
  

Roles:

• Roles are not public information unless specified otherwise.
  
• When someone is elected to an elected role, they retain their previous role.
  
• Once someone is elected to an elected role, the only ways for them to lose that role are to resign, or to die.
  
• Every player starts off with a town role. In addition to this a player may also start off with a zerg role.
  
• Which players possess zerg roles is decided after the PMs containing town roles are sent.
  
• The players who are chosen to be zerg are chosen completely randomly and after settler roles are assigned. A player's settler role is NOT a hint or guarantee as to what their alignment is.
  

Clues:

• All clues will be in character. Clues will never involve a player's avatar, name, or personal life.
  
• Narration that is in bold may or may not be a clue. Narration that is in red is definitely a clue. Narration that is neither is not a clue.
  
• Do not rely solely on clues. Analysis of roles, behavior and voting patterns is far more important.

• No additional abilities.
  

Infestor:

• Night action: infestation, turns the targeted player into a zerg aligned infested terran. If this player has consumed their night action for that night, they are granted an extra night action. This may only be used once.

** ADVICE **
Don't shoot people without a GOOD reason. If the marines massacre a ton of innocent settlers on the first day, then they probably have one day before the zerg overrun them completely.
Stay active, especially during the day. The general wants to be there to disable a weapon if a marine looks like they're about to go nuts on some innocents.
The longer the day lasts, the more clues the settlers can gather and the more the zerg are at a disadvantage. Try and keep the body count low if you're a settler, and if you're zerg try and stack up the corpses.
This means that shooting someone who people are going to vote for anyway is a bad idea.

** FORCED LEAVE **

• Raccoon, probably forever at this point. He just likes digging himself in deeper.
  
• zany_001, until after this game. Reason, giving away privately known information after his death. Being thickheaded in general.
  
• ToA, until after this game, unless he convinces me that he'll be be able to maintain activity.
  
  

** CHANGES FOR NEXT VERSION **

• Nights will never end prematurely. Always ending the first moment that I'm online and at least 36 hours have passed.
  
• I don't pester people for night actions, nor reveal publicly who hasn't used their night action.
  
• Night actions will happen in a well defined order.
  
• Civilians will be given the one time only save night action.
  
• I will upload a mp3 from Umineko for each narration post. It's a clue!

In + Auto signup

Same

W/e lets do this!

In, Auto, ready to kill.

Fine put me in.

im in if you want me in. i promise not to do anything gay.

and you cant say im the only one who failed miserably last game.

and i see you started this game before me and zany could even prepare ours

Awesome.

If I wanted you in, then you wouldn't be on the out list obviously.

In of course

In, put me on auto signup.

OK, test game over, now lets play serious. ==> In

Also, my day 1 hit attempt was basically a test of the rule "everyone with a weapon can declare a day hit". And since pretty much anything can be used as a weapon, even fists and feet, I wanted to see if I'd be able to hit. But since the rules now clearly say "civilian: no abilities" I guess I can't even try a day hit with an inefficient weapon now. Right?

In speed mafia 6, you don't have a weapon unless your role explicitly says that you're armed.

Also good to see that we have 8. Signups will remain open until I decide to close them.

What does 'colored' mean? I have to color my actions?

It means they need to have to have some sort of [color] tag around them.

It serves two purposes:
1. So I know you're not joking when you say you want to do this thing
2. So I can pick out actions while scanning the thread

Night 0 end
When FaRTy1billion doesn't show up to the mining camp this morning the settlers of Mar Sara get way more nervous than usual. The most likely possibility is that he is sleeping in, as he so often does, however recently the town's psi detector has stated that there is a single zerg life form in the proximity of the town.

Urahara and ToA, the settlement's two Marines, searched high and low for any stray zerglings that may have wandered into the region, but couldn't find a single trace of zerg life. After waiting around for an hour, Vi3t-X suggests that the settlers break in to FaRTy1billion's house, just to make sure. They agree, and sure enough their worst fears have come to pass. FaRTy1billion is lying on the floor of his bedroom with his throat cut. There are no signs of forced entry, so the logical conclusion is that there is a infested terran among us!

Addressing this threat will require a leader. The settlers meet in the town square and agree to elect a general to lead them through this crisis.
Day 1 begin

You may now begin voting for general. Your town role PMs will be sent shortly. After they are sent, zerg role will be decided and PM will be sent.

As a handicap, the settlement will be equipped with a psi detector. This device will inform the settlers of how many of each role remains in the game.

Psi detector:
2 Civilian alive.
2 Lucky civilian alive.
2 Marine alive.
1 Ghost alive.
1 Medic alive.
1 Scientist alive.

1 Infestor alive.

I vote ToA

I vote NudeRaider as general.

You only said that because you know this is no legal vote.

Votes:
Urahara : ToA

Voting ends when each player has cast a vote, or when I wake up on Monday.
