HOW TO VOTE:

You vote with [vote]MartinGG99[/vote]. I am using special code to make it visible. Keep in mind the username must exactly match on the username on the website (including characters such as spaces) or the bot will not count it.

If you want to remove your vote in its entirety, just vote me or unvote with [unvote][/unvote].

If a majority occurs, a bot named The Godfather will automatically pop-in, post vote-count, and immediately lock the thread. As for ending day at the end of day, I must do that manually unfortunately so if there are any disruptions IRL due to my Internship I may not be able to do an instant lock on the thread the moment EoD hits. Regardless of however delayed I am, if I am manually closing day I will do a double check for any invalid, post-EoD votes.

USEFUL BUTTONS (including seeing the vote-count):

Spoiler : full setup & rules (contains all new clarifications that the original setup page does not provide) :

Inspired by the "I'm Spartacus" scene, designed for a smaller player count and be largely simple in nature.

Roman Legionnaire
Roman Loyalist (flips as Spartacus)

Rebel Slave
Rebel Slave
Rebel Slave
Rebel Slave
Rebel Slave
Spartacus
Spartacus

Typical vanilla-like game (mafia/romans kill every night, mafia get to chat with eachother 24/7, etc). Most rules up to the discretion of the host, to be noted in signups. HOWEVER, the following may not be changed what-so-ever:

"Spartacus" flips with no alignment and only reveals their role.

The Roman Loyalist flips as if they were Spartacus.

The game begins with a 24-hour night 0. There is no night kill for night 0. During this time the Romans may opt to swap their roles if they so wish, but when Day 1 begins they can no longer swap roles.

Additions upon & since signups:

- If there is a conflict between the Romans on who to kill, the Legionnaire has the final say.

- On day 1 the voting will be plurality only. There-after a majority vote will instantly end the day.

- Voting ties are decided by RNGjesus, which will be funny if Jesus offs the Romans in a tie. EXCEPT the tie is always in the roman's favor IF AND ONLY IF winning the tie means instantly winning the game. Otherwise it just feels bad for the Romans.

- Self-votes disabled. (I didn't make that bold, the site did)

- Minimum of 10 posts per day phase. I don't care how much or how little effort you put into those posts -- so long as posts were made.

Disciplinary process for failure to meet minimum post requirement (experience has told us that a crystal-clear predictable process is important):

Spoiler : process :

1. Did a mid-day hammer occur?
1a. Yes -> Subject to host's discretion. If it happened before the first half of a day phase, the rule will likely be waived/ignored for everyone for simplicity's sake. If not, the rule will be applied based on how much time has elapsed and how many posts were made by the min post violator(s).
1b. No -> Go to step 2.
2. Did the violation occur on Day 1?
2a. Yes -> Private warning and requirement to make a minimum of 20 posts on Day 2 and, if failing that as well, go to step 2b.
2b. No -> Automatic modkill -- past games have shown a lackluster pool of replacements and ineffective warnings beyond day 1 so unfortunately modkill is necessary.

If a modkill for violating the minimum post rule occurs, then the flip occurs at the same time that the modkill did.

Spoiler : New Tentative Schedule :

Details may change as we get closer to these dates.

If there is a majority hammer, for the sake of simplicity the following night will only be extended rather than arriving at the next day phase any time sooner. I will process the sudden EoD from the hammer when I reasonably can and am not in the middle of work.

Sept 7-8, (Night 0, starts early with an extension because I got invited to a one-time event)
Sept 8-10, (Day 1 -- should be normal)
Sept 10-11, (Night 1 -- should be normal)
Sept 11-13, (Day 2 -- should be normal)
Sept 13-14, (Night 2 -- should be normal)
Sept 14-16, (Day 3 -- should be normal)
Sept 16-18 (Night 3 -- 24 hour extension, its just simpler that way)
Sept 18-20 (Day 4 -- will likely be normal, but chance my ability to process EoD will be delayed)
Night 4 and beyond -- Game is still going??????

Hi Folks, how are You?
So thrilled to play again! I feel like it's been a veryyy long time...
Last game that was played here was ?krc by Lumi which i sadly had no time to play, and the game before that was cancelled (hosted by me =] )

So happy!!

[The Nightbringer]

im town!

Good to know. I will now classify this post as ignored for analysis.
Setup wise, I'm interested to know how you guys want to play this out, obviously if the game doesn't end when the revealed mafia gets lynched then we are specifically hunting the mafia sparticus, I'm not sure at what point we should start claiming to be either slaves or Spartacus to narrow down the endgame scenarios. My current opinion is probably not today but haven't really thought it out fully yet

[The Nightbringer]

I remember you Oliver, time to see how you have evolved as a player since we last crossed paths 2 years ago.

[Brendan]

let's go cowboys!!

[The Nightbringer]

Well Brendan hasn't changed at all over the years. Spam detected! but still normal for him and not alignment indicative.

Did you miss my questions?

As far as I know, this is the first time this setup is used here, might be other setups that are similar that I'm not aware of. Thus don't know who won. And didn't think you actually wanted an answer due to it being a newish setup. (And yes, I missed the post where you asked if I missed the questions until now)

or are you ? hm

[The Nightbringer]

Well yes, but football Sunday doesn't help me determine your alignment, even if I liked the cowboys (I'm indifferent) I can't let that influence my opinion of you. Thus, your post has been classified as spam for the purpose of this game in my notes. Don't worry, I expect you to post something relevant with your remaining 8 minimum posts. Maybe ask superjack why he voted you or something... I suspect meta but don't have context at this time.

My current opinion is probably not today but haven't really thought it out fully yet

Okay heres my thoughts: We may want mafia to kill spartacus unintentionally then we know those are real spartacus upon flips. Prob best to not claim until later in game. If we decide to have 2 town spartacus claim, and mafia does not counterclaims, then they are the first two to die. We kinda want to avoid that.

IMO: if mafia decide to claim Spartacus early, town spartacus shouldnt CC at all, and if they get nightkilled, it actually out the mafia spartacus.

Thats pretty much the only setup spec I have, not much else to go on.
