Posted August 16, 2018
This is a quick "Russian Roulette" style game of forum mafia. We have an imaginary gun with six revolving chambers, and a bullet in one of the six at random. The aim is to try and shoot everybody on the other team without getting everybody on your team shot. One team is larger but doesn't know who else is on their team, the second is smaller but are in communication with their team members.
The game requires some commitment and I've been told it aught to span approximately two days. But I'm not certain about that.
I still have no real idea of the numbers for this game, so everybody who wants to play post here! After an uncertain amount of time I'll close it down, send out the teams and start the game.
It's all very uncertain.

Thank you Krypsyn for The Rules:
(also thank you to everybody who's been copy-pasting the same rules since 2010)
Each player may attempt to fire the gun once, until everyone has made an attempt. If everyone has made an attempt to fire the gun, but a successful shot hasn't been made yet, then everyone may attempt to fire the gun a second time. If only two players remain, it might become necessary to have a third round of attempts.
All valid shot attempts are permanent. Once a shot has been placed, it cannot be recanted.
If the gun hasn't been fired successfully by a certain deadline (it will be noted in the thread), then the gun will automagically target a player from amongst those who have not attempted firing, or who have fired the least, so far in that killing period. This deadline will be: 6pm UTC, 18 to 42 hours following the latest killing.
Revised, point by point rules follow:
1. The moderator for the game is JoeSapphire
2. This game has 10 players total: 2 Mafia (with a scumchat) and 8 vanilla town.
3. All players may attempt shoot the gun at any player of their choice (including themselves), as long as there are shots remaining in the gun (6 total shots and 1 live round per reload). Only living players are valid targets.
4. Players may attempt to shoot the gun additional times only after all other players have fired an equal number of shots.
5. Shots will be queued up as necessary, but moderators will resolve any shots as quickly as possible.
6. After a successful shot, the gun will be reloaded and any shots remaining in the queue will be removed.
7. Please remember to bold your shots like this: Shoot Yogsloth.
8. All shot attempts are final, and may not be 'unshot'. Choose targets wisely.
9. Hard "Day" endings will be posted in thread after each death. If there hasn't been a death by this deadline, a player who hasn't attempted to fire the gun (or who has the least attempts) will be chosen at random to die.
10. When you are dead, you are dead - stop posting. People get dead very quickly in this game, so be prepared for that. We can accept a single post acknowledging your death, that doesn't give any game information to the living players. Something like 'bah', for example.
11. Don't edit your posts! This is very important! Editing a post is grounds for being modkilled. Do not double post. Two consecutive posts of the same user in a short time frame will merge, creating the appearance of an edited post. The time limit after which you can post without fear of auto-editing is 10 minutes.
12. Please bold any requests or questions to the moderator.
13. Do not discuss the game with anyone outside the thread, unless your role indicates that you may.
14. Do not quote or paraphrase too closely any PMs you receive from a moderator.
15. If you can no longer participate in the game or expect to be absent for an extended period, let me know and we can work something out or I can try to find a replacement. This hopefully won't be an issue since it is designed to be a quick prologue game.
16. All players on the winning team win, even if they are dead. Players who are modkilled or has replaced out will automatically lose the game.
17. Roles have been randomly assigned.
18. As this is a 'Nightless' game, the game thread and scumchat will be open 24/7.
19. Remember it’s just a game. Be polite and remain calm.
