The only difference is that once you send in your large action (see below) you are not allowed to move afterwards until I respond to your PM/the session starts.

Actions
Each person will submit actions, not by Skype, but forum PM. This is to help me keep the times they were sent in and the order. It is purely for organizational purposes.
You will all get an unlimited number of smaller actions (picking up items and checking plot) but you only get one larger action (trying to solve a puzzle/important piece of plot. When I check PMs, I will notify you of what happened during each of your PMs.
Items and Plot: Simply send in which item you want to pick up or document you want to check. However, items come on a first-come first-serve basis.
Puzzle and Plot: For things like that, that require multiple actions, you will send in a large action and then stop. You are not allowed to move or send in smaller actions from that point forward. We will either resolve this in PM together or in the next session if we cannot.
Murder: Will not be allowed during AFK Hosting.k

When in AFK hosting mode, you are free to send in as many investigation PMs during the investigation phase as you would like. Again, use the forum PMs. You never know when someone might try to change around the evidence.
SEE FURTHER RULES IN THE POST BELOW!
PERSONAL RULES
~If you break the rules, I will remove you from this plane of existence!
~If you peek into a room that is locked, I will find a way to defy physics in order to make your death as glorious as possible!
~You may only PM people IN THE SAME ROOM! Do not use the season chat to break meta and talk to other players across the map. Only use it for asking general questions, non-game related stuff, and commentary on the game that doesn't reveal plot or anything to other players. I will use it to make announcements and answer questions. But only talk about the game with the people in the same room as you. I will be strictly enforcing this rule. Players who break this rule may be penalized. It's not realistic to shout all the way across the map.
~When investigating, please tell me what room you are in. It makes it 100x easier.
~Be patient. I have other players to answer as well. If you spam my Skype or become severely impatient, I will respond even slower to your messages.
Season Specific Rules
~AFTERLIFE: Although Duality doesn't have an "afterlife" or "ghost" mechanic, it does offer something for players who die. Before you say anything, no. It isn't just a small box to sit in and talk to other dead people. That box is actually for my snacks. It will be like a map of its own. But, if you die there, it's game over. No second revivals.
~POWERS: Instead of having powers at the beginning of the game, you have to earn them. You do so by either murdering, solving a trial, or solving one of the mastermind's tests. Once you have your power, you upgrade/earn a new one for each murder, trial solved, or test you solve after that.
