Self voting mafia

[LTD 2,241]

Hey - 

In the current Mafia game, Herowannabe voted himself.

I tried that in a game some months ago and was told that I could not vote myself, even though the rules don’t say so explicitly. 

What is the actual rule? 

If the rule against self voting exists can it please be added to the general rules we use each game (the ones with Han Solo shooting himself).

Thanks

The rules are what the moderator allows, in general on this site we disallow self votes.

Offsite its legal, And can be used to good effect by scum at L-1 to End a day before town can rally together.

I think it should be the Mods preference as to legality on a game by game basis.

Very good.

This being the case I urge our future GMs to make it clear either way in the opening rules.

Sorry, I should have let you guys know.  You could have hammered yourself then.

 

As an insane and malevolent god, I tend to err on the side of giving you an easy way out of the twisted setups I create.  Plus it adds to the chaos. 😉

Just saw this thread. For what it's worth, I meant that mostly as a joke, and was mildly surprised when Jabba counted it.

There is no rule. Many mods use it. You would hope they would declare it in their rules list unless a b@stard mod.

The Han Solo rules that you reference and @The Jabbawookie posted clearly state in capitals, no talking outside the thread. You should have been modkilled for this thread.

Its a sensible suggestion and hopefully Ebonhawk takes it onboard.

@EbonHawk

it's a rule in the game already but I'll post an updated Han now

[EbonHawk 1,243]

rule update has been added to page 2 of my mafia game, with emphasis on the rule:

Don't spectator-post or like.

This also has slipped recently.

Okay if a laugh react to an obvious joke, but no likes or thanks as they can be misconstrued
