Resistance Rules

These are the rules of Resistance provided by RTG:

- **Do not make a new topic in this forum unless you are given permission by a forum mod/administrator.** You will be warned the first time, but repeat offenses could get you banned from the forum.

- **Read and obey all the rules in the first post of the game.** Any infraction could either result in a warning or a modkill and will hurt your faction.

- **Do not discuss ongoing games outside of the thread and do not post in games you are not playing.** This will result in a modkill at game level and a warning at forum level. If you repeat this offense again, you will be banned from this forum.

- **Have fun!** If you're not having fun, why are you even playing?

**Types of Games:**

1) Newbie Game: A newbie game has a setup of 6 rebels and 3 spies. There are no special mechanics in this game including plot cards and Avalon.

2) Avalon - see http://www.artofproblemsolving.com/community/c18181h1058696p4578187 for details.

3) Feel free to suggest new setups and include all the details in that setup!

The following rules will be very similar to apple.singer's of the Mafia! forum.

**Rules for SE/IC:**

1) Any player with 3 or more games completed can apply to be an SE. Success is decided upon by forum mods/administrators and, to a lesser degree, the Resistance community.

2) Any SE with 5 or more games completed can apply to be an IC. Success is decided upon by forum mods, and to a lesser degree, the Resistance community. Note the success rate will be lower, as IC is much more meaningful of a title than SE.

3) Anyone who is not an SE or an IC will be referred to as a newbie, regardless of how many games they have completed.

**Definition of a Completed Game:**

A game is considered "completed" by a player if:

1) The player is not replaced until the end of the game.

2) The player does not partake in activities/playstyles such as game-throwing, excessive fluff, etc.

3) The game is not player-abandoned.

Mod-abandoned games and replace-ins will be dealt with on a case-to-case basis. If you replace in early in a game, you will likely be considered as completing the game. If you replace late in the game, you will likely NOT be considered as completing the game. Mod-abandoned games in late-game states will likely be considered completed, mod-abandoned games in early-game states will likely NOT be considered completed BUT the game should be restarted with the same players and a better mod.

**Rules for Game Players:**

1) A newbie with 0 completed games can only play in 1 game. That game must be a newbie game.

2) A newbie with 1 completed game can only play in 2 games: one newbie and one regular. If he/she only wants to play in one game, it can be any game.

3) A newbie with 2 or more completed games can play in any 2 games, but only 2 games.

4) A newbie cannot be in more than 1 newbie game at a time. This is designed to increase opportunities for newer players to play more often.

5) An SE can play in 3 games at once.

6) An IC can play in 4 games at once.

**Rules for Game Mods/Comods:**

1) All game mods must be SEs or ICs that have previously comodded a game. (There will be exceptions to this rule for the first few games until this forum is up and running completely)

2) All game comods must have at least 2 completed games.

3) If you mod-abandon a game or mod an unsuccessful game, you may not mod another game until you have successfully (actively, correctly, efficiently) comodded another game.
