The Situation Room 3.0

Only three of the people who are currently signed up for my game are actually from Bulbagarden, the rest being from other communities. To my knowledge, this may be the first time that a majority of players in a game here are not from Bulbagarden. We're making history here!
 
Testing new rules formatting style.

I think I need to make some changes to these rules though



Game specific exceptions:To confirm you’ve opened this spoiler please {something}
Forum Rules and War Room Rules always apply.
Day phases will last 48 hours and Night phases will last 24 hours, unless phases get shortened as discussed in rule 9. Votes and actions will be locked as soon as the deadline for each phase passes. Votes/actions at :59 count, those at :00 don't. If the host(s) are sure that they won't be able to update, they may extend the phase in question straight from the beginning.
Please be active. You may be subbed out if you haven't made a game-relevant action for 72 hours. If no sub is available to take your place, or you keep not performing game-relevant actions for the next 72 hours, you may be modkilled. The aforementioned deadlines may be shortened on the host(s)' discretion, in case where waiting for that long would disrupt game integrity too much.
No quoting or screenshots of any conversation with the host. This includes exact wincon wording and posting fake data that supposedly comes from said sources.
a. Name claiming depends on the game, but if the opening post does not mention it, assume that name claiming is not allowed.

If you change your username mid-game, please state your old and new ones in-thread and mention the host(s).

To vote, use the following format: "VOTE: <PLAYER>". To unvote, use "UNVOTE: <PLAYER>". A tie in the plurality of votes will result in No Lynch.
Rules are subject to change. The host(s) will make sure to mention you if that happens. Your Role PM may also list exceptions to any of these rules. No loophole abuse at all, please. You may ask the host(s) if a specific action you are unsure over would be considered a loophole in private and they may let it slide. However, obvious loopholes that are clearly outside the nature of the game abused without informing the host(s) beforehand may be faced with a zero-tolerance policy.
No Wincon wording discussion
Eevee games contain no Hyper-Majority rules, and do not announce -Lo. Instead, two things are different about Eevee games.
If it is a day phase and the game is capable of ending within this day phase, or the night phase, you will be notified that this may be the last phase of the game. If it is night phase, you will get the same notification but it does not apply to the next day phase.
Instead of hyper majority, late-game day phases will be shortened at the hosts discretion. This will generally be when the activity has died down, and will be announced at the beginning of the shortened phases.
Outside contact depends on the game. Please include the hosts in all conversations.After dying in the game, you may post more but said posts may not contain game-relevant information.
If the game has no deaths for 4 consecutive phases because of continuous No Lynches in the day phases followed by factions with kills purposely idling them in the night phases, or if the game has reached a stalemate state, the game will end as a tie for the parties involved.
You will be warned if the game is approaching such a stalemate.
The most important rule. Have fun!
 
Maybe you’re a fan of this style, ME? :3

Eh doesn't read nicely as the items in the rows ot columns dont relate to each other

Yeah, it does need rearranging... Which as I said, I think I need to review the rules entirely anyway.

Not to mention, unnecessary lines like "All bulba garden rules apply"... Well, of course they do!

Yeah, I've been thinking about removing it from my games because it just seems slightly self explanatory?
 
With respect, I don't understand. You're not making sense to me :(
Lists are simple, they put everything in one place and if they are organized properly, there should be no excuse for missing any information on it. With the table, however, that thing is huge and it's easy to be lost in the vastness of the table and miss something by accident (especially when there are two rows for no apparent reason). Lists are simply the superior option, and what I use for the roles whenever I host a game.

Anyway, what's with all the bastard games being hosted here nowadays? That was not happening in my day

I just don't agree. Tables give me control over how it looks, but lists are just a mess.

Because some people just like the chaos, I guess... I definitely won't be hosting any bastard games. I'd rather have fair games.
