§8F - We won't be super specific about how you must vote, but be a dear and hit atleast two of these: bold, larger font, dark colored text.
§9 - The GM can and will remove players if the GM believes that player is adversely affecting the game, for example through failure to fulfill voting obligations or deliberate violation of the rules. This will be done through the use of killing the player's role, or using substitutes, if they are available. All such decisions are made solely at the discretion of the GM.
§10 - Failure to vote on 2 occasions without prior notice will result in automatic substitution. If no substitution have been found 6 hours before deadline, the player will be autolynched at next deadline.
§11 - Most games will start with one player dying on the very first night, without even having gotten to vote and such. It sucks to get killed off first, but its part of the game. On the upside, the first player killed automatically gets 1st dibs on Substitution, no matter who else has signed up for Subs.
The Storm is coming!
