Please use your posting alone to indicate you are still yourself, not pointing back to a time day 1 where you spelled out the word B E A N S with the first letter of your sentences or something.
9. This might seem obvious, but Please Please Please Please Please Please don’t post anywhere else on your alt account. Triple check, change it to a different theme, anything, but in a game based on alt identity we really can’t afford issues with it.

This rule will be punished strictly. Don’t mention anything outside of the context of the game, it spoils the game integrity.

Tips for Alting

1. Play this game on a different browser than your main one, or use a browser extension such as Firefox Multi-Account Containers

2. Mute the game thread on your main account, and mute other threads on your alt account. This makes it less likely that you will post in the wrong game on the wrong account.

3. Change your site theme while using an alternate account. If you use dark mode on your main, use light mode on your alt.

11. Reviewer notes:

Well known setup.
Mafia gets ability to “possessor” jump in exchange for more town players existing.

Please - Do not cheat it via creating weird codes or trying to suggest own identity to others, as ability to jump was already taken into account by adding more townies to the setup.
Aka. Play the game as it was meant to be plaied.

The game is full.

Role cards will be sent to your MAIN account. So as to prevent the Mafia from learning your identity in the case of a jump, please do not invite your alt account to your rolecard.
