The Rundown
THROUGHOUT EACH WEEK
Every single day, there is a chance of Punishment Deaths, Betrayal, Spying, and Jeopardizing. Speak to a mod if you're interested in any of that happening to/with your character. The chances of a mod picking someone and approaching them in DM for one of those things is nonzero, but it will be in extremely special cases.
Additionally, we always welcome explorations/investigations. Always put Mod Ping in the subject line whenever you guys need one of us to come into the thread. Bonus points for pinging us on Discord. If you're primarily a Plurk person, shoot a pingTsukeru's way.
Culprits are always voluntary, as are the victims. The post for volunteering is here. In the event we have a culprit volunteer with no victim, we will RNG and approach the respective person to discuss it. The same goes for a reverse situation.
MONDAY
A weekly mingle log will go up at 12 PM EST, and there will be a race happening on that day. Playing it out will be simple, as we will make use of RNG to determine results. Said results will determine how things are set up on Wednesday.
No motive will ever happen, as the motive is built into the game mechanics themselves.
WEDNESDAY
The weekly game will take place on this day, and the person playing the NPC running it will unlock the toplevel at 12 PM EST. The game will always be different, each week. But they will always come with a very high risk of death; you could pretty much say at least one death is guaranteed on every single Wednesday.
FRIDAY
If any death happened, the characters are given the chance to investigate and find the body/bodies.
A player must step forward the night before to let the mods know their character is willing to investigate. If interest is expressed, the mods will unlock the Investigation Post at 12 PM EST.
Any evidence found by the participating players will have to be remembered - or in picture/list form. There may not always be enough evidence to accurately point to someone using just the evidence provided, but the point will be for them to try their very best to gather as much as they can.
If no death happened that week (or if no interest to investigate got expressed), there will be a new post put up to cover the weekend; games and challenges will be included! It'll be a chance for the characters to earn more funds for the shop.
SATURDAY
If a murder happened, there will be the chance of a trial happening. If a character would try to hold a trial, the player must let us know at least a day ahead of time. If someone does step forward, a post for the trial will go up at 12 PM EST. Everyone has the chance to present their evidence. A major discussion will take place, and clues/evidence will be swapped.
The point will be to choose the one who seems most guilty, and the votes will be openly shared.
SUNDAY
At 11 AM EST, a new toplevel will be posted to the trial post that depicts the execution (it will be in the form of a single comment, due to the nature of it). Everyone will have room to post a reaction/play out the aftermath. This ICly happened on Saturday.
After that, a new post will go up at 12 PM EST, and everyone will have the opportunity to play out some R&R, should they so desire. Alternately, they can throw a party.
OOC dates and times reflect IC dates and times, except where noted (e.g. the execution).
