Guys, I think we need an old-fashioned goofy, unbalanced, anything goes bastard mafia game.

I was googling around for quotes about bastards (because, bastard mafia) and I came across this one from Tyrion Lancaster and so I decided the theme of this bastard game is going to be dwarves. LoTR/the Hobbit dwarves, Snow White's dwarves, Tyrion, Discworld Dwarves, etc. PM me a dwarf of any kind from any media (let's try to stay away from real people with dwarfism) and that will be your character. I may or may not give you thematic mechanical powers.

The setup will be mostly closed, but will probably disclose some things. PINL (Promise I'm Not Lying) rules will apply -- if and only if I write "PINL" before or after messaging, you know you can trust it.

I'm not going to intentionally make the game unbalanced, unfun, impossibly long or impossibly short. But I do reserve the right to do unorthodox or norm-defying things you might not see in a normal game. It's going to be more like the first couple of Bastard Games we played on this forum than the more recent games that are more "I'm not confident I balanced this set-up well so I'm going to call it "Bastard" just in case".

I'll add a rules post and stuff by and by. I'll launch the game with however many people sign up, as long as its three or more.

1. Galzria Dainn, survived
2. faust Barnard's Star, killed night 2.
3. Awaclus Nimmie Amee, killed night 3
4. pubby Mayor of the Munchkin City, exiled day 2.
5. mathdude Sleepy, survived
6. Swowl Dopey, endgamed
7. infangthief Bashful Bashfullsson, killed night 3
8. WestCoastDidds Doc, survived
9. Brightgalrs Urist McMafiaPlayer, exiled day 3
10. Jimmmmm Holly the AI, exiled day 1.
11. EFHW Professor Flitwick, killed night 1.
12. scolapasta Mini-Me, exiled day 4

The Rules:

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.

The Standard Rules:
1. No communication between players outside of the game thread or shared QTs at any time. This includes passing references, jokes, or cases in other games or threads, whether in context or not.
2. If the game thread 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 (including QT opening and closing times) is strictly forbidden. Paraphrasing is okay.
4. All night actions must be submitted within 24 hours of day ending.
5. Players must post once every 24 hours.
6. Do not edit or delete posts, ever. If you need to clarify or correct something, post again.
7. Invisible text, font size less than 10, and spoiler tags are not allowed.
8. Cryptography is not allowed.
9. The time between an exile being reached and a flip being provided is called twilight. All players may continue posting during this time, including the exiled player.
10. Dead players may not post in thread or QT, except in their Role QT. An exiled player is not "dead" until a flip has been provided.
11. Personal multimedia, such as video or audio recordings, are not allowed in the game thread.

The Voting Rules:
1. Votes should be in this format: Vote: Playername. Unambigiuous nicknames are acceptable, or any string that uniquely identifies a user. Note that the point of voting is, in fact, unambiguity, and attempting to make it unclear to other players (or, of course, mods) which user you are voting for is very ill-advised.
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 exile.
5. Exiles occur when a simple majority (rounded up) of living players is reached. Once reached, an exile cannot be undone.
6. If a majority exile is not reached by the Day's deadline, no exile occurs.

The Rest:
1. Bold, Maroon text are reserved for the MODs. Players may not use it.
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.
4. If a mod error disadvantages one faction greatly, the game may be called off.
5. Ask all questions and make all requests directly to the Mod via PM. Questions deemed as "universal" (defined as questions for which the answers should be available to all players) will be requested to be re-posted in the Game Thread and answered there.
6. Players may request prods on other players if they have not posted in 24 hours. Players are subject to replacement or modkill after one prod.
7. All rule violations will be dealt with according to their severity, as determined by the mod.
8. Each player will receive their own QT, regardless of role. Don't quote from it.
9. If the game goes on for 3 days and 3 nights without an exile or nightkill, town wins.

Deadlines and ephemera:
1. Days will last five IRL days.
2. Nights will last 48 hours.
3. Kills in this game will be flavored, and that flavor may be important.

The town faction in this game are GOOD DWARVES and the mafia are BAD DWARVES. Your win conditions, which I failed to include in your PMs, are the normal ones -- GOOD DWARVES win when BAD DWARVES have been eliminated and BAD DWARVES win when that can no longer be accomplished. If you have a win con other than these two, you have been informed of it. PINL for this whole block of text.

Faust has also been incredibly stubborn this game. In other news, it's hot in the summer, and water falls from the sky when it rains.

I can't think of any girl-dwarves.  But since we all know I am a powerful witch, I can be a dude dwarf. I'll send youa few of the seven that I can remember. 

Also, I am overextended so I will be the worst about keeping up, but I am not going to turn down a chance to play with my friendlies.

Are we sad there isn't more gender equity in fictitious dwarves, or glad that there isn't a boat load of hypersexualized chick dwarves? Both, maybe.

A lot of media take the line that there are female dwarves, they just also have beards and deep voices and look the same.

Well this seems like a perfectly cromulent number of players. I'll work out the setup tomorrow night and get us rolling by the weekend. Signups are still open.

Does this extend to things like "Thread Locked" etc?
