Hello, fellow Skialites!

Today, I bring you a new version of the jailbreak rules!

Amalgamated by Sroy , Grima , Avenger , CDAWG , Drum .

This version of the rules suits the current audience much better I find, as arguments always break out about silent rules and loopholes. It can be a real hell for admins, and we feel as though some of the admins that do main jailbreak understand how bad it can be sometimes. With that, I rewrote the jailbreak rules using all of our ideas together and made quite a few updates, without much room for loopholes. Please, take a gander and maybe you will enjoy the ideas. If you have any suggestions for this suggestion, feel free. I feel as though this is kind of an urgent issue with the current state of jailbreak and a new influx of players during the summer.

So without further adieu, here it is! (https://ghostbin.com/paste/257y6)

Skial Jailbreak Rules!
All you need to know about Skial Jailbreak!
-------------------------------------------

Simple Version:

General:
- A warden is picked at the beginning of every round from a queue.
- To make this queue fair, instead of it being random, it goes in order of who connected.
- The warden gives orders to the reds, if they do not follow, they get killed by blues.
- If you do not want to be on blue team, type !q
- Dead people may give NO information on the game through chat or it will be punished as ghosting.
- The last prisoner that is not a rebel, gets a lr, which can be Freeday for him and one other next round or doing a specific game next round.
- After the LR is granted, all reds may be killed.
- Breaking any rules results in a ban, silence, or slay depending on the kind of offense and severity.
- All regular server rules apply to jailbreak.

Red Team:

- You must follow orders from the warden on blue team.
- If you do not, you will die.
- Rebelling is an option, it includes hitting guards, making them incapacitated, refusing to go places, ect.
- You may rebel, as long as you realize the risks and expect no mercy.
- Your goal is to survive to the end of the orders and get Last Request (Lr), or rebel and kill all the blues.
- AFK is not an automatic order, but staying in your cell for at least 30 seconds until orders are given is.

Blue Team:

- You must kill anyone not following the wardens orders.
- You may not kill or hit reds for no reason, that is freekilling or freehitting.
- You may kill any red with ammo unless otherwise specified by the warden.

Warden:

- You must give the reds orders and kill all who do not follow.
- You may kill your guards if you see they are doing something bad along the lines of greifing or not enforcing your orders.
- You may not kill your guards for no reason, that is also freekill.
- You must give the last person LR.
- If there was an LR last round, you must grant it as long as it is in the boundries of valid stated above.
- Orders CAN be given through text on our server!

Complex Version:

General:
- Staying inside the invincible room in Casuarina (The one that no one can get in except 1 person, and then no one else), for the entire round is slayable.
- You may only stay in the armory for 1 minute at a time unless it is surrounded by the opposing team.
- Reds and blues cannot help each other, it is griefing. If your friend is on red, use !q. (This includes extreme mercy, helping people rebel, ect.)
- AFK means mouse, taunting, and healing too, and is not freekilling.
- Using illegitimate means to "butt in line" using an exploit, will be punished.

Red:
- Using the tardis to get into armory is still killable and not freekill.
- Getting consumables from last round on red is exploiting and will be punished.
- Freeday =/= Ammo unless specified.
- Detouring or Delaying an order is also killable and not freekill.
- Trying to break a entrance to armory is rebelling.

Blue:
- Starting a game or pressing buttons prematurely is helping the other team and not allowed.
- Giving too much mercy and letting people who killed others live is also helping the other team.
- Giving a bit of mercy once in a while is still okay, just dont go too crazy.

Warden:
- No opinionated games. (Hat day, joke day, ect.)
- No warday / anarchyday / hunger games / hide n seek.
- No singling people out for orders.
- No freekilling orders, such as infinite wipeout.
- No AFK entire round orders.

Freeday:

General:
- FD automatically happens with no orders given at 7:30, if you leave your cell before that, blues may kill you.
- First day FD is a unrevokable freeday that happens on the first day of a new map.

Red:
- Can do any activity, but not hurt guards.
- Getting ammo is only okay when specified.

Blue:
- If ammo is allowed, you cannot kill for it.
- You cannot hit reds unless they did one of the above.

Warden:
- Can revoke FD whenever, even after the 7:30 mark is hit.

How to punish rulebreakers:

- Add one of the Admins or make an Account on Skial.com
- Gather evidence of them breaking the rules, as well as name and Steamid. (Further explained here: http://www.skial.com/threads/collecting-evidence-in-tf2.47782/)
- Make a report to the admin you added or make one on Skial.com in the reports section. (http://www.skial.com/forums/reports.38/)

(OPTIONAL RULES FOR THE SUGGESTION)
- The warden may permit ammo to freedays, but not let them kill other guards with no punishment.
- No line games, they are too confusing and cause a lot of accidental killing.
- Freedays are for everyone or LRs only, no favoritism. ~Seth

Admins who actively enforce rules on jailbreak:
Sroy (http://steamcommunity.com/id/TrueSroy/)
CDAWG (http://steamcommunity.com/id/WELCOMETOCDAWG/)
Grima (http://steamcommunity.com/id/TheFellDragon/)
Meowcenary (http://steamcommunity.com/id/meowcenary/)
Avenger (http://steamcommunity.com/id/doesheevenavenge/)
Map Maker (Go to him for all map related needs):
Drum (http://www.skial.com/members/drum.6225/)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We could also revise the server messages to include one about the rules being updated quite a lot.

I appreciate any time people put in to reading this, and I promise that even if some of these seem hard to enforce, the other Jailbreak-Reg admins and I will do our best to do so!'

Keep in mind suggestions are welcome, but the sooner this gets declined / approved the better. Just because of the current state of jailbreak.

Congrats guys!

It may sound sounds douchey but I love when regs come up with stuff like this to help the community and the servers they love playing on

the rules are better and more explained i think they did a great job about the new list there are much more confused new players to jailbreak these days +1 :)
 
Awesome!
I wanted to thank everyone for the support!

Now all that I ask is that this gets put in place of the current JB rules, or !jbrules redirects here.
As well as a server message to let people know of the changes.

I would very much appreciate it, and again, thanks everyone for the support!
 
With the anti-armory camping rule does that apply to the whole team or individuals? If just individuals I think a changing of the guard would be neat.

Interesting theory.
I would say whole team, though, to avoid needless reports or loopholes.
 
Beside that, if the blue team needs to camp, it's basically because they're surrounded by reds, although the rules that in that case they are allowed to. I suggest camping being disallowed no matter if blues are surrounded or not.
 
Perhaps maybe drum could code in a slay timer for all armories? I dont know how possible that is. That would force bluss to at least expose themselves.
 
While im late +1 and congratulations.
Lets hope this helps solving the usual problems in summer...
 
- The last prisoner that is not a rebel, gets a lr, which can be Freeday for him and one other next round or doing a specific game next round.
Found a hole, you didnt mention that a freeday cant get lr

Haven't been here in a while. But summer has started :3
Anyway, people on the servers are going to find loop holes if there are any. Hopefully you'll be able to nullify those loopholes.
