While the rules can be copy-pasted onto this thread, it would be in your best interest to view it from Excel.
Please review this spreadsheet for 90% of all the rules.
The rules covered in this thread are ones that may require a change down the road.
However, everything in the spreadsheet is absolute and will not be changed.

Spreadsheet of Rules
Rules not covered in the link above:
I. AFKing/Activity (Players/Mastermind)
To accommodate different time zones, I will be having an irregular sleep schedule for the entire week. At the same time, I'm anticipating murders to happen at around "X" times. This is purely my assumption, but I will be most active during "X" times. Believe me when I say that your timezone will not matter too much.
To signal that you are active in the game, please turn on your "Coms Device" this will let me know to pay extra attention to you.
However, you are not required to turn it on. You may choose to play the game with your "Coms Device" turned off.
The only difference is that I will assume you're afk unless you message me for an investigation or to deliver a murder method.
If so, I will assume that you're NOT afk and you're being sneaky instead.
How to turn "Off" and "On" your Coms Device:
As presented in the screenshots, enter the Voice Channel titled "Coms_Device" to show that your device is on. Please mute yourself, there will be no voice communication allowed.
On a similar note, you can only talk to other players in the "Coms_Device Channel" if your device is turned on.
Please don't forget to turn off your device if you decide to stop playing for the day.
Mastermind:
I won't be giving an exact schedule for when the games will be live. Just simply check if my Coms Device is on. If it's on then that means I'm around for...
1. Talking
2. Investigations
3. Murder Methods
4. Acquiring Items
I will be on very very very often for all timezones.
II. Investigating
Traditional rules! Just message me ON DISCORD through private message what you'd like to investigate in the room you're in. There won't be any clear indicators on what you can or cannot investigate. However, please don't abuse this. Investigate things that stand out. Don't investigate things just for the sake of it.
Here's an interesting spin though...
My answer to your investigation questions will be different depending on your Coms Device. This means that my answer to you when you ask me with your device "on" will not be the same if you ask me with your device "off"
III. Holding Items
Weight system applies here. This means that you can only hold a certain amount of items you find. Here's the weight of your starting items for example:
1. Coms Device: 1
2. Bracelet: 0
3. Note with restricted action: 0
You can only hold a max total of 3.
Items that exceed the weight of 2 MUST be used as your movement indicator. Anything lower can be kept hidden.
While most players will use a simple "." as your movement post in a room, if holding an item with a weight of 2 or 3, your movement post will be the name of what you're holding.
Your carry limit of 3 will also be your limit when it comes to moving anything. The weight of something won't be listed and if you want to move something that looks very large, you must ask.
IV. Murdering
Message me in private on Discord with your murder method. As always, your method of murder must be practical and it may not go 100% according to your plan unless your plan is 100% perfection.
Requirements to murder someone:
1. Weapon
2. Be in the same room as the victim.
3. If in the case of more than 2 players being in the room, making sure the third player is on board with the murder or incapacitated/AFK.
Results of your Murder Method may vary depending on what your victim is doing or their suspicon level. Not every plan will go as planned.
That's all.
