Management has noticed that many people have different interpretations of what is in the spirit of the game so we decided to make a list of basic etiquette for those who are coming. We understand that many of you don't care about the anon game but please respect the fact that Management does. It makes us sad to have set something up only for us to feel like no one wants to play the game/like what makes us unique.

Please be mindful of a player’s time and role-playing speed and do not lock them in a time-sensitive roleplay if they’re unavailable to participate.

NDAS
While NDAs have always been a hush-hush thing that people did without management’s knowledge, we wanted to make official rules for it so everyone is on the same page.
- If NDAing with people, please be honest and open about it with your squad.
- You may have up to 3 NDAs before you must step out guessing with your squad.
- If at any point in the game you realize you need to NDA, please feel free to do so.
- Please do not bring anything from your NDA into your squad chat.
- e.g. Screenshots from other teams talking in their squad chat.

DOXXES
There are many times when people accidentally reveal their identity.
Some common ways are:
- Social media sites such as Tiktok or Pinterest.
- Using the wrong Tupper in another RP group.
- Sharing screenshots with more information than intended.
- Smurf account shenanigans (e.g. using the wrong acronym for their account/accidentally reusing their account).
- A person telling a story about their squadmate to someone in a different squad which doxxes both as being on the same team.
- e.g. Person X goes to tell their squad a story about their dream about person Y. They forward it to the person they has a dream about. Another squad member ALSO forwards the message to person Y. Person Y now knows they are both on the same team.
If you see this happening, please notify the player/mods and keep this information to yourself. You do not need to step away from guessing but please do not make it obvious you know. If you decide you would rather just admit that the person got doxxed then please follow the same rules set for NDAs.

OOC LOGISTICS
We know the line between hiding and being ass out can be ambiguous. If you're feeling burnt out on hiding, please remember to take a break and try to avoid potentially spoiling the hunt for other players! We do not expect players to do anything elaborate to hide themselves, and only ask that players respect mods and fellow players by sticking with basic hiding until reveals!
✓ OK!
- Reusing an OC: Please make the minimal effort of hiding (changing OC's hair color/style and real name is the minimum)
- Making an OC that is your "typical" i.e. tropes/personality
✕ NO! YOU ARE “ASS OUT”!
- Chatting with anonymous muns ooc beyond the minimum needed to coordinate rp threads/requests or confirm comfort zones
- Your OOC messages in your letters CANNOT include information of your OCs actions. e.g., ((ooc: as she reads this letter she blushes))
In person is shortened this season, so please make an effort to play the game anonymously as intended until the end!
If we notice behaviors that are too ass out, we will give you a warning.
After a second warning, you will be on low priority for next season.

GUESSING ETIQUETTE
- Please do not use information outside of this server to red-string.
- e.g. oomf telling you that they’re sick
- If you are exchanging information without an NDA with another player in the different squad than you, please treat this information as if it was NDA content.
- Examples of information are if your friend is telling you which OCs they like, telling you stories about their teams guessing or if a secondary source leaks information about another player.
- When in doubt, treat any talk outside of server as NDA.
- This is to allow people to continue to speak to their friends while allowing the game to keep the spirit of blind guessing.
- If you share the guesses you’ve made with your NDA, lie to them and substitute some of your legitimate guesses with members of your own team. By playing dumb, you obscure your teammates and help everyone out.
- Reasoning is that if you put down your guesses for the other two teams honestly, it allows your friends to triangulate who is on your team.
- Though they shouldn’t use NDA info against you, they might do it subconsciously!
- Even if you only share guesses from one team, there is still a possibility to triangulate.
- e.g. You guess characters A and B which are both on team 1. Your friend is on team 2 which means they now know you are on team 3.
- Please do not put people down too hard for insane guessing. The fun of the game is being wrong!
- No using spectators to help you guess!
