Rule 1- Play by the rules! Do NOT defy the host at all. You may reason with them if you have a problem, but insults and complaining to them will just break this rule. It's also good to play the game by their rules, which vary from host to host.
Rule 2- Dead players are dead! They may NOT pass information to other players after they're dead. If you're dead, you may still comment on the discussion thread but it cannot be specific about the game. Posts such as "Good game everyone! It's fun to watch" are okay to post, but NO dead players may post about the gameplay.
Rule 3- Non-players may NOT post about gameplay and specifics about the game! If you're not playing a game and just watching, you may post all you want about it, but you may NOT post in the day threads about gameplay specifics and everyone's roles. This rule is similar to Rule 2.
Rule 4- No overusing OOC evidence. Also do not use OOC evidence to prove your innocence, and don't swear in OOC.
Rule 5- No editing posts.
Rule 6- No copy/pasting your role from the host.
Rule 7- Don't get overly frustrated if you lose. We all do and it's only a game.
Violation of any of these rules will result in a punishment which is up to the host of a game.

The revised Rule Book is up! This one better suits the games now that we're on these forums and not on Ambush. You may all discuss the rules here. Oh, and they're not in the discussion board for games because I think they should be in the actual Game board so everyone can see them.

Where is the rule about the role revealing thing? Each host is going to have their own rules about which roles can be revealed by those who have them.

I think hosts should decide themselves about rule 4 too.

I think hosts should decide themselves about rule 4 too. I don't know, if someone starts telling everyone in OOC that they're innocent then everyone will believe them, making things unfair. OOC evidence can be used from time to time but it's best to be kept at a minimum, because the real suspicion of these games was meant to be IC evidence.

I mean I'd allow the kind of evidence I used against Namialus in your game when I'm hosting. Because I think it's good evidence. And if people start yelling they're innocent in OOC you just shouldn't believe them I think.

Rule 5 is also important. Someone could go back and change it.

Rule 5 is also important. Someone could go back and change it. But you can check that because it will say it was changed. And quotes will stay the same so we can use those to figure out what was originally said in the comment.

So you mean you can't edit your own posts or someone else' (if you have the power)? I can see that someone could edit their post if someone else is supicious of them to make them seem loyal so I don't disagree with the rule but I think it's too vague.

Only Mods can edit anyone's posts and if they did that it would be even worse. But basically editing posts should be penalized lightly (and get worse as people do it more and more).

Maybe there should be a time limit. Allowing people to edit their post within 1 minute to correct mistakes.

And no one can get away with it since it says who edited the post.

Hmm, I also want to add in a rule that's more for hosts saying that a full day and night should be no more than 72 hours. If it goes over 3 days to get to another day then the game should speed up. And I'm just pointing this out because soon we're going to be getting into a lot of games for Phase 4.

Maybe we should have a rule where the host is not allowed to add players in after day 1 started unless they were previously signed up and had a reason to be late.

Please note the newly added Rule 6. We encountered this problem in The Tale of Omega so I thought it'd be best to add it in as a rule.

A suggestion for Rule 7: Don't get mad if you lost a game. We've all done it before, including me.

I know what you mean and I do agree with it, it's just that I'm not sure if we should make it an official rule. But I'll let you all decide and see what everyone thinks.

Much of it is in the PMs so it can't be moderated.
