GAME BLUE
Welcome to the first Proving Ground game. The idea here is that we wanted to open up a game to everyone who was not in the All Star game. We will give new players a chance to learn, and overlooked players a chance to shine.
Theme:
RED spies have infiltrated the BLU base, in order to steal the coveted Fried Chicken documents in a briefcase. BLU -- in a tradition of overreacting - has decided to kill off one person each day until all of the red spies are dead, and their documents are safe.
Overall game idea (if you're new to mini Mafia games):
12 people get thrown into a situation where you don't know who to trust. Each day the town gets together and decides to kill somebody, to try and find the RED spies. After a vote, the person with the most votes is killed by the BLU team. At night, everyone goes back to their beds to sleep, and then RED gets their turn to kill people. If team RED has the same amount of people as BLU, they get the information and win the game. If the town kills all of team RED, they win. You win or lose as a team, not individually, so do your best to help your team out!

Phases:
The game will cycle between day phase and night phase. In order to keep things consistent, we will be running a 48 hour cycle split into 2 phases, which will always start/stop at the same time.
Day phase will last 36 hours. (9AM to 9PM PST - Pacific Standard time (or whatever is currently valid for California). All votes are done in the thread, by bolding an underlining the vote like this: Lynch Pimp Willy. People with day abilities must PM their choices by the end of the day phase.
Players who do not submit their lynch vote before the deadline two day phases in a row will be DQ'd. They will be replaced by an available alternate if available. If no alternates remain, they will be listed as dead and their roles will be revealed.
Night phase will last 12 hours. (9PM to 9AM PST- See above) During this phase, the RED team must decide who they want to kill. People with night actions must PM their choices before the deadline.
Talking is allowed during all phases.
Votes:
No Lynch is always a valid voting choice at all phases of the game. Your choice must be bolded and underlined in the game thread. Votes can be changed once cast.
Votes will be tallied and posted at the end of the day phase.
When you die, your allegiance as well as your role will be revealed.
Last Gasp
When a BLU is killed, they are able to make a last gasp (unless "Aussie Punch!" or "Backstab" is invoked). PM me with your message and I will post it into the thread; do not post into the thread yourself. If you feel the need to make a post in game after your death, keep it non game related ("nice game guys") and keep it to one post only. Posting anything game related after death will result in a ban, the length of which will be determined by myself, Missing Person, SWBeta, and NoodleHead, possibly others should others begin running games.
People Banned From Playing:
SoVi3t (2 game ban)
The Faggot (5 game ban)
People On Probation (Can play, but next offense results in 2-game ban):
Nobody!
COMMON SENSE RULES THAT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO POINT OUT, BUT NOW HAVE TO:
1) Do not edit ANY POSTS. Period. For any reason. Do not ask us to verify with mods that you did not have any malicious intent in editing your posts, we will not do it. Do not provide me with any photographic evidence of your edits. There are going to be no warnings this time, just DQ's. Habitual editors will be banned. We have had this BS happen way too much during these last two games. If you have anything to add, or any clarifications to typos to make, or a broken image/link in your post, create a new post to address it.
2) Do not PM anyone playing the game. If you are mafia, keep your PMs in the mafia conversation. If you're one of the lovers, keep your PMs inside the Lovers conversation. You should not be PMing anyone else if you are them, and if you aren't, you have no business using the PM inbox at all regarding this game. If you have any questions regarding gameplay, PM me. If someone PMs you that shouldn't be, do not mention it in the thread, just PM me with the the contents of it. PM'ing once will result in a DQ. Habitually doing so will result in a ban. (Things not game related will not result in any penalty, but to keep the integrity of the game, if someone playing PMs you, please report it to me.)
3) No coaching after you're dead. This includes outside of SRK. I don't care what format you're thinking of using, be it Battle.net, AIM, MSN, Skype, Smoke Signals, Texts, Morse Code. Don't do it. Also, because this has happened recently, I will not verify any of your hunches after you die. Keep it to yourself, take it to the Loser's Lounge, if someone shares information they know, don't bring it to anyone else's attention that's still in the game. If someone does this, PM me with the proof, and that person will face a ban.
4) No discussing or plotting to break or bend the rules in your PMs, lovers and mafia. I'll be in those conversations anyway, so that should go without saying. But just in case you think you can do it while I'm sleeping, think again. If you start discussing something that I don't immediately catch, and that action is taken, once I find out, the perpetrator of the act and the instigator will both receive bans and DQs.
5) If you are lovers or mafia, you will not be allowed into the Loser's Lounge until you leave the Pm conversation after you die. It's not entirely clear on how you do this by looking at it, but upon your death, simply click "Delete Conversation" on the left-hand side of the screen. This will only delete it on your end, and no one else's.
6) Do not try to get removed from the game after it already starts, or try to break the rules to get DQ'd. If something super unexpected happens, I'll try to be reasonable, but overall, if you know you're going to be busy, and unable to play at all, don't sign up. If you suddenly see a full schedule hit your plate just before we start, ask me to take your name off the list, and I'll put in an alternate. After we start, I'm not going to take your name off unless you have a really good reason, and I can find an alternate to take your place. Otherwise, don't deliberately break a rule just to get a DQ. You will not just get a DQ, but banned.
7) No posting images of PMs, even as a joke, in the game thread. If you are going to make a fake PM, do it so that it's easy to tell at a glance that it's fake.
