Welcome to Paranoiafia!
This is a game of Mafia for the especially paranoid. It turns out the mafia has come a-knockin' 'round these parts, and this town is not going to take it! No sirree.
The following links may help new players become acquainted with the game:

Basic Rules: Reading these rules, along with the game's specific rules, will help you understand the game.

The title character in this game is the paranoid gun owner. This is his role PM:
But first, the rules:
Fundamental:
1. Have fun, and do not ruin the fun for others.
2. Unless your role states otherwise, no communication about the game is allowed outside of this thread. In addition, no communication about this game is allowed with non-players or players who are dead, even if you yourself are dead. (If you are dead, you may not discuss the game with anyone who is currently playing, even if you could while you were alive, unless your role specifically states otherwise.)
3. a) No quoting mod PMs or fake quoting mod PMs. Not even partial quoting. Or partial fake quoting. Summarizing is acceptable. Exception: any mod PM that has been posted publicly by the game moderator may be quoted freely.
3. b) You are allowed to quote mod PMs privately to any member that you are allowed to communicate with outside this thread.
4. Editing your posts is not allowed. I consider an "edit" to be anything that causes "Last edited by..." to appear underneath your actual post.
5. Do not post hidden text. (Spoiler tags are allowed because they are easily noticeable. Posting text with the intent to hide it from other players, e.g. by changing the text color to resemble the page background, is not permitted.)
Voting and Lynching:
6. All votes and unvotes must be clearly labeled and entirely bolded (Vote: Kirby King, Unvote). I won't count votes/unvotes that are not properly formatted or don't actually contain the words "vote" or "unvote," respectively. It is up to you to catch whether another player is voting or... not.
7. When changing your vote, you must unvote your previous vote before you revote.
8. A lynch decision is finalized the moment the voting threshold has been reached, regardless of any voting/unvoting that may follow. The voting threshold is based on the number of players alive and is posted at the beginning of each Day and in each vote count.
9. You may vote for a "no lynch" if desired. If enough players vote "no lynch" to reach the voting threshold, the game will progress without a lynch.
10. Once a lynch decision (including no lynch) or a deadline is reached, the game enters "Twilight," where all players may continue to post until the moderator officially ends the Day. Any votes/unvotes cast during Twilight do not count.
11. Once you are dead, you may not post in this thread or communicate with anyone about the game, except as stated otherwise in your role PM. Period. Not even a "bah" post.
Activity and Deadline:
12. Day deadlines will be set on an as-needed basis. I am much more willing to set deadlines than I am to extend them; activity lulls will lead to deadlines. Each Night phase will be approximately 48-72 hours long.
13. If deadline is reached during the Day before a majority decision is made, the person with the most votes will be lynched. In case of a tie, the person who reached and remained at or above that total first will be lynched.
14. If a player does not post in the thread in a 72 hour span, I will prod them if another player requests their prod in thread. If the inactive player does not respond to the prod in a reasonable amount of time (either by posting in thread or contacting me via PM), or if they accrue too many prods, they will be replaced or modkilled. These restrictions are intentionally left vague.
15. If you will be unable to participate for 72 hours or longer, PM me or post in thread.
Game Specific:
16. This game is partial reveal. When a player dies, only their name and alignment will be revealed.
17. All roles are assigned entirely at random.

The title character in this game is the paranoid gun owner. This is his role PM:
That's all you get for now! To get a role PM of your very own, you need to play. (Or wait until the game ends and take your pick, I guess. But then it won't really be "yours".)You are a paranoid gun owner. Each Night you can choose to be paranoid or relaxed. If you are paranoid, you will automatically shoot anyone who visits you at Night. If you are relaxed, you will not. If you fail to send in an action, you will remain paranoid.
You are town-aligned and win when all threats to the town are eliminated.
