If I were to, let's see, make another account for the purpose of a Posting Game, would you allow me to do that?
 
Any word on a winter skin? I could help with the BGs if ya want =D
 
what do you mean a "posting game"

1. The police officers will be the next seven people who send correct answers to the clue. Put in a bit of thought before posting. If you have not been around for awhile, it is less likely that you will be able to identify me.

2. There will be no "informants", bu civilians may post

3. People will die. However, there are some exceptions. I will not kill administrators or moderators. In return, I ask that they not reveal my identity.

4. Police officers may die, but a police officer may protect another police officer.

5. Once a police officer has made three incorrect accusations, he may not accuse or protect anyone.

6. The assassin will provide clues which plainly point to his next victim, and occasionally to himself.

7. The assassin will continue to post with his true account, and may provide hints there.

8. The assassin will write entertaining and mildly gruesome accounts of his kills.

9. When accusing someone of being Assasinator you must use the following template "I accuse (place name here) because (give reason here)." If you don't use this template when accusing the accusation won't count.

10. Once "killed" a user may not make any statements about the identity of the Assasinator.

11. Non officers or informants may post.

12. Each clue will last only one day, after which the Assassinator may kill. You have additional officers due to this rule

13. If the assassinator does not reply in 8 days after all protects are made, each officer gets a free accusation. However that accusation must be made next time the user posts and cannot be stored as an extra one to use later.

14. Each officer begins with one accusation. You will earn accusations as you protect correctly

15. The Assassinator wins after 15 incorrect accusations have been made, but the number needed to win goes down by one with each kill

14. The Assasinator reserves the right to add to these rules as he deems necessary.

Here's the game, I would need to make a account named the "Assassinator" for this to actually work. A assassinator would be chosen, and start a new game, members can join, the assassinator will post clues, and members(officers) will try to solve them in the time given, if they do not correctly protect the correct person, that member will die, once the officers find out the assassin/the officers give up/all of the officers die, a new assassin will be chosen by either the officer who correctly accuses or the officer that first posts after the assassin's identity is posted and the rules will be sent to the new assassin once again, to start a new game.
 
you probably didn't

Well then for some reason on the transactions page it says that I spent two bells for posting something. However in the action column the post is crossed through, so I don't know what that means...

Lost them because you made an edit then you re-gained them with the edit being evaluated into the equation.

So... you're essentially copying Mafia? There's a thread for that.
 
I have a question for the staff. As a member of the something awful forums, you get banned quite frequently for posting short posts or generally clogging up the threads with memes, pictures, and starting new threads that aren't entertaining at all. I wanted to know if it's pretty much the same way here, that you can easily get on a moderators nerves to the point of banning for posting something that goes against the mods beliefs, or just saying something useless.

From my experience on this forum, the staff are really cool. Aslong as the post isn't upsetting anyone or complete spam it's usually fine.
