If no one objects, I'll change the rule to Voltaire's suggestion.
I'll do this, and I suggest adding a couple more rules:
Rule 2.4 (all other rules that need to will get bumped up a number):
If the deadline is hit and nobody has a majority of votes, a no lynch occurs.
I just realized this isn't in the rules.
Also, I think yuma's rule 3.8 should be added:
Players who discover they are too busy to play in a game or want to leave the game for civility issues are not allowed to officially /out in the thread. A request to /out must only be done via a PM to the moderator. Please do not use this as a manipulation technique. (Note players may continue to threaten to /out or imply that they might as long as it does not include an official request).
Requests to /out are final once submitted. There will be no /outing and then /inning back into the game so make sure that when you /out you have thought it through and really want to do it.
Players that can't be replaced will simply be mod-killed.If nobody objects, I'll insert these rules.
