I've never played this game, nor seen it played on a forum before, so not sure what standard rules are.

Also, are you planning on running the first game Cyber? Because we already have 5 people other than you in yes.
YES i'm planning on modding the first game.
And to be honest? this is THE first time i've ever applied this to forum based, trust me it wasn't easy to try to figure out the time restraints and how many rounds should be enough etc.

So this game WILL be a trial and error test run to get the kinks sorted out, much like how mafia started here.
The way I see it is that if after the first day , or round, people were taking FOREVER to answer, or simply dodging, then i'll simply set a time restraint of 36 hours or something depending on activity for future days.

Again, this has NEVER been done in a forum based, at least never by me or in ibis, so if we get this going well, we might actually be pioneers in this as a subsection of the forums.
NORMALLY this game is done in person, and the WHOLE GAME lasts 7 minutes, so if you stall as the SPY, then you're wasting opportunity to get another round to ask questions to get info to guess the game. and if you dodge as the TOWN, then you're also denying chances of baiting and trapping the spy with harder questions u know?


Trial and run, i'll try my best to use the best of my judgement to handle this modding, but much like mafia games, time restraints can hurt town, so i'd rather if people used common courtesy and fos'd the people dodging simple questions that they shouldn't be taking forever to answer.
