Welcome to Jailkeeper 9: Now Featuring Hydras!
Hosted by @Arete with VCs by @KyoDaz and @Simon
Rules:
Follow the Global Forum Rules, given in this post:
Additionally, for this game, a minimum requirement of 15 substantive, on-topic, game related posts per in game day are required per slot, unless the day ends early. Posts that are explicitly or obviously made solely for the purpose of meeting this requirement do not count towards the minimum, nor do posts containing solely a vote. The first time a slot fails to meet this requirement, they will receive a warning; the second time, they will be replaced out if possible. If a slot zero-posts, they will be replaced out without a warning.
The game will begin when it is filled.
Hydras!
This game features hydras! That is, rather than playing as individuals, each slot will be filled by two players, who must work together. Hydras sign up as a pair.
Hydras will have a private chat on the forums which they can use at any time, and may create private chats elsewhere so long as the host is added.
A note: by moderator request, all participating players will have their title changed to designate their hydra name, to minimize confusion. This will be reverted after the game.
A single member of a hydra replacing out will be handled on a case by case basis.
If there are insufficient hydra sign-ups, non-hydras may be allowed to join so that the game can fill; however, hydras will have preference.

Gameplay
-
The set-up consists of 1 Town Jailkeeper, 6 Vanilla Townies, and 2 Mafia Goons. Note that this differs from some other set-ups with the same name.
-
Days are 48 hours unless majority is reached early and nights are 24 hours.
-
Lynches are majority and plurality. In cases of a tie, the lynch will be determined randomly among the players receiving the most votes.
-
No-lynch is a valid vote, and may be hammered to end the day early. In cases where no-lynch and another vote are tied at the end of the day, no-lynch will have priority in the rand.
-
Self-votes are considered valid votes.
-
Votes are locked in MyLo and LyLo scenarios. That is to say, in situations where a mislynch or a no-lynch will guarantee a Mafia victory, the first vote cast by a given player is final and cannot be changed.
-
All votes must be in the form /vote [name of player] to be considered valid, and all unvotes must be in the form /unvote. This is to enable the smooth processing of votes. Votes for either member of a hydra, or for a hydra’s hydra name, will count as votes for that hydra.
-
The Mafia factional kill is NOT mandatory.
-
The Mafia factional kill IS assigned. That is, a specific member of the Mafia must be chosen to perform the factional kill. If no member is selected, the last member who submitted a kill will be assumed to perform it.
-
The Mafia will communicate through a private Discord server or forum topic.
