Any and all actual requests of concession should remain between the conceding party and the game host.

Talk of concessions falls under the same gross OGI-y umbrella as discussing host communication and sub talk, so it's a no-go. Lenience may be given to blatant banter. The exact wording of this may be subject to change since I'm tired but the spirit of the law's there.

I also fixed a bunch of random spacing errors I noticed in The Big Fat Rules Post that existed for some unknown, nefarious purpose.

We added a clarification to the Hosting Guidelines, which can be seen underlined in context below:

10) Replacing is only for emergencies; do not tell players otherwise

Do not recruit players to your game under the premise that they can replace out for anything less than an emergency. Do not accept /ins on conditions such as "I will need to be subbed out if I am still alive on Day X."

If a player knows that they'll need to be subbed out at some point, they shouldn't /in. Simple as that.

The purpose of this thread is to provide a singular location where rule updates and clarifications can be found. Massive, sweeping changes will probably still have their own threads, but for more general tweaks and addenda, you can find them easily here.

Rule changes, updates, and clarifications:

Users will be informed on the outcome of reported posts.

There is one code of conduct for MU forums and Discord.

6: and 7:

It is no longer permissible to mention that you are multitabling (playing more than one mafia game simultaneously).
