So, there's a lot of new and new-ish players who have never seen a bastard game before. Isn't that a shame??? Don't worry folks, now is the time!!!!!!

First things first: What IS a bastard game?

As you may expect, a bastard game is a game that is terribly designed on purpose- for comedic purposes. These games are not to be taken as seriously as a normal game- rather, they are for the express purpose of clowning around, for both the players and mod. These games are best when you enjoy the show, and are a part of the show! Additionally, bastard design can be an art of its own- a place where really wacky, semi BS but also weirdly balanced games can be created for a unique and memorable experience. Bastard games just hit different.

Rules: (Yes, even bastard games have rules.)

Players may not contact each other about the game aside from in-thread and game-approved PMs. Dead players contacting the living players to better spectate the game is acceptable as long as no information is revealed or hints/tips are given to the living player. However, I strongly prefer dead players contact me for information if they want to spectate. Dead players may contact other dead players.

Spectating players may not reveal information about this game (roles, characters, etc.) since all players can see it. Any players given inside information still relevant to the game cannot replace other players.

If a player is replaced out, they may not reveal information about this game (see above) unless I specifically allow them to replace someone in the game.

Once a player is dead they may not communicate in-thread. They may still communicate in game approved PMs, however. Also, players may not talk after the DP has ended. During twilight it is fine to talk, but not after final vote count and flip are posted.

No players may C/P their role PM or fake doing so. Just kidding. You can do it this time.

DO NOT edit your posts in DP threads. Violators will be banished to an alternate dimension where they edited their post and were not punished for it. 

DO NOT like posts after death. (Uh oh. I can't stop you.)

All questions to me about the game will be answered wherever they were posted as long as they can be answered without ruining the game. I can and will answer all hypotheticals, but cannot answer questions about unrevealed information, with a few exceptions that will already be specified at the start of the game without the need for players to ask about. Example: If a player asks if there is a cop in the game, I cannot confirm or deny that. I can, however, answer questions about how a cop would work if it were to be in the game, since that is a hypothetical.

The role a player gets will be the role that player gets. Do not ask me to have you swapped for something else, please. I will deny the request in all circumstances.

Please respect the other players around you. If violated, penalties may vary, but I will always give a warning first. This will be loosely enforced; I will only step in on the worst of circumstances, so don't expect me to do anything if someone merely mocks or teases you. IN FACT, I encourage you all to mock and tease each other.

9+... all the way to infinity. This game could have a hundred players for all I care. Minimum to get the game going is 8.
