These two are pretty sweet too:
* Minimum 5 posts every 2 days. So you have to have made 5 posts in the thread between the current day and the previous day. Failure in this will result in death by town lynching(doesn't count as the day lynch...just an extra lynch)
* There are no replacement players.
I'm actually not fond of those two rules.

The second one is completely lame.

happens. You can't stop it from happening. There are going to be times someone can't continue due to unexpected circumstances, and as a result of having no replacements either town, Mafia, or third full faction are getting screwed because of it.

As for that first one, it kills one of the Strategies. Making few, well times posts while keeping under the radar can be an effective strategy if done well, while that rule is saying "Yeah, smurf you and your play style."

All I see it doing is making people post a bunch of pointless crap.
