You Dictate Only Your Own actions
No godmodding. No one likes it. It pisses everyone off and will only get you kicked off the site. Trust me, you don't want to risk it just to get your preferred outcome. Also, we would prefer, if you are the culprit, that you don't tell anyone you did it or accuse yourself.
Don't Do Anything You'll Later Regret
Please keep all mature content in threads labled as such. We may have underagers or those opposed to porn here. As for gore, you're working a muder mystery, it's kind of unavoidable.
Sit Back, Relax, Enjoy Yourself
Have fun! Yes, this is a rule. You are required to have fun
Give Respect where it is Due
Respect your fellow players. No one wants OOC drama.
One man, one vote
You only get one character. App for another and you will be rejected. Try to app for another under an assumed name and try to trick us, you will be booted out. No exceptions.
You can't leave the house
During cases you're not permitted or able to leave the house. This means that all rps in the Circletown category will be temporarily frozen and inaccesable until the case has been solved and we are once again on downtime.
Cross your t's and dot your i's
Once you reserve a character you have a week to do your app.
You cannot put in an icon or your character name until you've been accepted. Until then please use a generic placeholder name.
Once you're accepted you have two weeks to post.
The victim will be PMd at the start of every case with the details of their death but not who did it. They will RP their own death without giving any hint as to who did it, will then be informed of who killed them, and will be my helper from that point on so that they'll have something to do while they're dead.
The culprit will also be informed at the beginning of the case. But, like any good criminal, they will be allowed to participate in the case and possibly throw a wrench in the works.
Once the case is underway and you go out to search for clues, you will post threads in the rooms within the manor. When I and my helpers have decided it's time, we will choose a thread and plant the clue under and NPC account. The player(s) who found the clue will then post it in the Clue thread and everyone will reconvene in the Drawing Room to discuss it.
As soon as the first clue is found you may begin guessing. But guess wisely, because you only get one guess until either the case is over and someone has already guessed correctly, or everyone has used their first guess without success.
Once the case is over the threads will be moved from The Case to Past Cases and we will have a short break while I come up with another case. During this time you're free to RP as you wish.
The Victim fromt he last case automatically comes back to life once the case is solved and the Culprit is the victim in the next case, unless deemed otherwise by the person designing the case.
When the case is over you all wake up in your beds and remember nothing about the rpevious case. As far as you're concerned you had a lovely night of dinner and dancing. Nothing unusual happened and there's no reason to fear for your life.
We will be watching your RPs to decide who the next killer will be and if there will be any more victims than usual.
Every once in awhile I will let someone else take on a case so i can have a turn playing. It's only fair :<
If you're the one to guess correctly you get a point. Once you have 3 points you can spend them picking the culprit. But spend wisely because if you pick the culprit then you become one of the victims and we have a special double homicide round. We can't have you working the case when you already know all the answers, after all. Work up to 5 points and you can pick one of the clues and still be in the game. Work up to 10 points and you can write a case if you want.
If you have read, agreed to, and understood all of these rules please put the phrase
Somwhere in your app.
