Joseph2302's Blitz Mafia Ruleset, with changes in PINK

The Golden Rule:
This is a game.  Everyone who signs up to play must be considerate of each other, never get personal, and focus on having fun.  Once the game starts, having signed up is a commitment; inactivity is just as inconsiderate as rude comments.  Read The Civility Pledge before signing up for this game.  If you have not /pledged there, you cannot play here.

The Standard Rules:
1.  No communication between players outside of the game thread or QTs at any time.  This includes passing references, jokes, or cases in other games or threads.
2.  If the game thread or QT is locked, do not post.  If you are unsure if something is locked, ask the mod by PM.
3.  Direct or verbatim quoting of mod-provided information is strictly forbidden.  Paraphrasing is okay.
4.  Town night actions must be submitted by PM to the mod within 24 hours of day's end.  The most recent order will always be valid.  There are no nights.
5.  Scum night actions must be submitted in QT within 24 hours of day's end.  Any team member may submit all night actions.  The most recent order(s) will always be valid.  There are no nights.
6.  Players must post once every 24 hours.
7.  Do not edit or delete posts, ever.  If you need to clarify or correct something, post again.
8.  Invisible text, fonts size less than 8, and spoiler tags are not allowed.
9.  Cryptography is not allowed.
10.  The time between a lynch being reached and a flip being provided is called twilight.  All players may continue posting during this time, including the lynched player.
11.  Dead players may not post in thread or QT.  A lynched player is not "dead" until a flip has been provided.

The Voting Rules:
1.  Votes should be in this format: Vote: Playername. Similar syntaxes ARE accepted e.g Vote:Playername, Vote : Playername Unambigiuous nicknames are acceptable, including obvious spelling mistakes.
2.  Unvotes should be in this format: unvote or Unvote: Playername.
3.  Unvotes are not required if changing your vote from one player to another.
4.  You may vote: no lynch if you prefer.  No lynch is not an option.  Most votes at deadline dies; ties are decided randomly, using random.org.
5.  Lynches occur when a simple majority (rounded up) of living players is reached.  Once reached, a lynch cannot be undone.

The Deadlines:
1.  Days will last 1 consecutive 24-hour period.
2.  Nights will last two consecutive 24-hour periods.  There are no nights.
3.  Adjustments may be made to ensure days do not start or end on a Friday or Saturday.  At the discretion of the mod, D1 start time may be adjusted to a more convenient time.

The Rest:
1.  Bold, pink and maroon text is reserved for the Mod(s).  Players may not use them.
2.  If you have an issue or problem with the game, please PM the Mod.  Do not post complaints in the game thread.
3.  Mods make mistakes - please point them out gently.  If they can be corrected, they will.  If irreversible, they will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game. Be aware: this is my first game moderating.
4.  If a mod error disadvantages one faction greatly, the game may be called off.
5.  Bold all in-thread Mod questions and requests so that they don’t get missed.
6.  Prods of inactive players will be issued automatically after 48 hours.  A prodded player has 12 hours to respond or risks replacement. No prods, no replacements.
7.  Players may request a prod after 24 hours without a post.
8.  A player who has been prodded 3 times is subject to replacement without further notice.
9.  In reference to 6-8, "inactive" is defined as not having posted in the game thread AND not having provided notice in the VLA Thread.
10.  All rule violations will be dealt with according to their severity, as determined by the mod.
11. The game will start once all places have been filled, and we have a comod.

Mechanics:
This game is Nightless.
This game uses a White Flag: town needs to lynch any two Mafia Goons to win.
Mafia have daytalk.
When the first Mafia Goon is lynched, they get a return kill ("vengekill") at a town player.
Innocent Children are announced at the start of the game.
Flavour:
Town players are on the  "Engine" team and Mafia players are on the  "Knights" team. Flavour names will be independent of alignment, as all "Knights" will be given an additional safeclaim name. All Flavour names will be Dominion cards. Kill flavour is also independent of actual events. No prior knowledge of Dominion is required to play.
Sample Role PMs:
Mafia Goon
Quote
Welcome to ZM20, Donald X. You are Dame Josephine, the Knights aligned Mafia Goon. You don't think engines are fun, so decided to trash their Village.
Factional communication: Throughout the day, you may talk to your partners here: [QuickTopic link].
Vengekill: Your team may kill someone after the first Mafia Goon is lynched.
Win condition: You win when all members of the town are dead and at least two members of the mafia is alive, or nothing can prevent the same.
Please confirm your role by posting in your QT.
Vanilla Townie
Quote
Welcome to ZM20, Donald X. You are Gold, the Engine aligned Vanilla Townie.
Your only power is the power of the vote, so use it wisely.
You win when 2 mafia goons have been lynched.
Please confirm via PM.
Innocent Child
Quote
Welcome to ZM20, Donald X. You are Silver, the Engine aligned Innocent Child! At the beginning of the game, your role and alignment will be revealed to all players by the mod.
You win when 2 mafia goons have been lynched.
Please confirm via PM.

As soon as we're full and I have a comod, then I'll send out PMs. As soon as everyone has confirmed their PMs, we can start D1.
I know that's very vague, but it does kind of depend on it filling up. If we fill up in the next 6-7 hours, I can send the PMs today, if not I'll probably expect to send PMs early tomorrow (early morning forum time). So D1 will probably start tomorrow, I guess.

It was Jimmmmm's idea, but it seems popular. :)
One space to go.
Also, I've PMed SwitchedFromStarcraft to check he definitely still wants to play (he said /in on the game queue thread yesterday).

Confirming in for this game.  Confirming that I read the setup (be careful using my meta on that topic - best go look at the blitz games I modded).

Confirming that I read and accepted the Civility Pledge, at post #163 (page 7) of that thread.

Vote:  Eevee for buddying up to me before roles are even assigned.

Great, so just one space left + a comod and then we can start N0.

Also, if people have preferences for game start time, feel free to post them.
Another thing: if we're full but waiting for a comod, the thread will stay unlocked until just before I send PMs. So people can continue to make RVs if they want.

pink text is going to be really hard to read if you don't boldface it.  You may want to rethink your choice of mod-reserved color.

Yeah, the pink your were using above was fine, but the one in #17 is a little too pale.

Sorry, I accidentally changed from using HotPink to pink. Better now? I'll also bold things too.
