    As some rules in the Jailbreak rules section can be a bit unclear, I've decided to revise some of them slightly.
    There have also been introductions of multiple terms and games within the Jailbreak community.
    I have tried to update it accordingly and feedback would be appreciated.

    Rules typed like this stay unchanged.
    Rules that have been revised are typed like this, followed by the original rule in (brackets).
    New rules will be typed in blue.
    I advice skipping sentences like this, as they are unchanged.

    General:
    - Do not over speak an Admin, or a Warden. (Admins take priority over a Warden's conversation / orders)
    - No Ghosting: Players who have died may not give away the location of others who are alive, no matter how unspecific.
    - No more than 3 days with the same theme in a row.


    Prisoners (RED):
    - You must always listen to the warden's orders, unless you are rebelling.

    - ALWAYS do as the warden says and do it as quickly as possible, even if the order is not very specific (never detour or delay).
    (- ALWAYS do as the warden says and do it as quickly as possible (never detour or delay).)

    - You must be AFK to ask for a repeat, and remain AFK for that repeat.
    - You may not ask for a repeat after 5 seconds.
    - You must use the plugin to ask for a repeat.
    - Freedays may go into amoury.
    - When a warden dies, freeday will only commence if warden is locked..

    - Previous orders apply unless warden is locked or if the new warden says so.
    -When the warden dies, you must become afk frozen until warden is locked.
    - On freeday for all, no LR is given. People who chose freeday as LR don't get another LR the next round.
    - If you pick clients for freeday, no more than 3 people and don't glitch it. (If admins are on, use /denylr)

    - LRs Must be reasonable, and cannot force one group of people to be killed the next round. (Unless it is a selected class day)
    - Custom lr's should not give someone an insane advantage over the others. (HG and I can have ammo, for example.)
    - Hunger Games should take place on the entire map unless stated otherwise in the lr or by the warden.
    - Don't ruin a last request, it's a killable offense.
    - You are not allowed to enter Vents, or Armory, as this is considered rebelling. The same applies to the Medic Room, or a Control room to a game unless it is a passageway, but in this case you may only enter if the warden gives you permission to do so.
    - You may not camp outside or near an entrance to Armory, Medic, or the Vents.

    - You may only hit a guard if the guard approaches the Red, or if said Guard is preventing the Reds from advancing to their destination. (This only applies if a Guard is blocking an entrance way that can fit one person.)
    - You may kill a Guard should the Guard follow you into a Game.
    - You may not camp unreachable areas.
    - You must be AFK Frozen when recieving LR, unless the warden says otherwise.
    - You must complete a game without cheating if the warden says so. If you don't, you can not receive LR, unless you were undetected.
    - You may hit the Blue team for Game baiting IF the game is turned on.


    Guards (BLU):
    - All blu's must have a microphone and use it when needed.
    - Don't freekill
    - Don't bait
    - You must be willing to go warden
    - Don't ruin a last request, it's a killable/guardbannable offense
    - Revenge killing isn't allowed
    - You have to play actively, no camping (Armory, Medic, Vents or a room specifically made for the Blue team) for more than 10 seconds UNLESS it's required by the warden (for example, Hunger Games without guns, you can camp the armoury)
    - No prisoner(s) get favoritism
    - You must wait for an order to kill a prisoner, unless said prisoner is rebelling.
    - You may not stand right outside, or near, an area that could be considered a rebellious area. (Aside from a control room)
    - You must provide a reason for killing a prisoner if asked, even if the warden has told you to kill said Prisoner.
    - You must listen to the warden. (Unless order is irrational)
    - You must stay near the warden, unless instructed to do so.
    - You may not start games.
    - You may not enter a prisoner's cell, unless the cell is big.
    - Orders given by you are not valid.

    - Don't go afk on Blue team, other people might want to play while you are afk.

    Warden (BLU):
    - Don't give kill orders, eg "Kill this guard" or "Kill that prisoner"
    - Wardens must read out any custom last request for the benefit of the Red team.
    - Blu's cannot kill for 3 seconds after the order is given, you need to give prisoners a chance to respond.
    - Don't randomly toggle friendly fire
    - YOU MUST HAVE AND USE A MICROPHONE!
    - NO BLOODY SQUEAKERS
    - Orders through text chat can be ignored unless it is to make clear what the warden exactly said.
    - New orders must be given every round.
    - Sprays do not apply to a warden's orders.
    - Give REASONABLE orders, no impossible things.
    - You must refer to the opposite team as the proper name for the opposite team at that time. (Changing Beds to Reds, etc.) [In our case, Reds or Prisoners unless the name has been changed]
    - All wardens must be mature enough to give proper orders in a professional manner.
    - Speak proper English.
    - You can only do cell wars once every 4 rounds.
    - You MUST give 1 repeat SHOULD you be requested to do so.
    - You may kill a Freeday if the Freeday is harassing\blocking a Blue.
    - You may only re-name the Prisoners ONCE per round.

    -When doing any day involving judging a Red by hat/joke/spray, make sure to call a vote instead of deciding for yourself. Doing a vote prevents any Reds from being favoritised.
    -Voicechanging lr's may be denied if none of the Blues wish to do it. (Singing orders, saying "I'm gay/dumb'' or being forced to talk in a certain pitch.)

    - You may not deny any LR's the prisoner chooses, unless it is a highly inappropiate custom lr. (Things involving religion or racism for example.)
    (- You may not deny any LR's the prisoner chooses.)


    Baiting:
    You bait if you:
    - Actively enter melee range
    - Throw Jarate/Mad Milk
    - Build Sentries
    - Force laugh using the Holiday Punch
    - Cloak/Disguise as a Spy


    - Place stickies without triggering them
    (- Place stickies)
    - Airblast
    - Intentionally shoot bullets around or near a Red.
    - Fire Rocket Jumper rockets or Sticky Jumper stickies at Reds.

    Reference:
    AFK Frozen- Not moving at all, no looking around, no healing, and not being in any taunts.
    Tree- Being in a frozen taunt state. Taunts that are applicable: High Five, Rancho Relaxo, Square Dance, Skullcracker, Flippin awesome and Rock Paper Scissors
    Detour/Delay- Detouring means taking a route that is not going to the destination you were ordered to go to. Delaying means that you are making your way to a destination with a slow manner probably stutter stepping or walking in circles.
    DR- DR stands for the minigame Deathrun.
    Freeday- A player that is free to do whatever he wants. The freeday can only enter a control room with the wardens permission.
    Freekill- Freekilling is when a guard kills a prisoner who is following all orders.
    Guard- Helps the warden manage the prisoners.

    Hunger Games- A day on which Reds fight each other in a free-for-all on the whole map. Friendly fire is toggled when the celldoors are opened.
    Hat/joke/sprayday- The Reds will be judged by how good their hat/joke/spray is. The Blues will then have a vote to decide if the Red gets to live.
    KOS- Kos stands for Kill on Sight.
    First reaction, last reaction- A game in which the warden gives orders (jump, taunt, crouch and such). When the warden says first reaction before an order, the Red obeying first will die. When the warden says last reaction before an order, the Red obeying last will die.
    Last Request/LR- Last Request is given to the last prisoner who is not a rebel, or a freeday. You can choose plenty of LR's, starting from Freeday for yourself to Apocalypse.
    Obby- Shorter term for Obstacle Course.
    Out of cell Rebel- If you leave your cell you are considered a rebel.

    Pokémon- Two Blues are chosen as trainers, unless a last request says otherwise. They pick one Red each as their Pokémon and make them fight 1 on 1 in a chosen area. When one of them dies, the next set of Reds is chosen to fight until there is one left.
    Prisoners- The team on the red side who is listening to the warden's order.
    Rebel- A prisoner who is disobeying the orders or attacking a guard.

    Shoot or don't shoot- A game in which all Reds face away from the warden. The warden then asks a random prisoner to shoot or don't shoot. The warden could be standing behind any prisoner, including the one he asked the question.
    Stairway- Shorter term for Stairway to Heaven
    Warden- In charge of the prisoners.

    Remove one of the two.
    Typo
    Don't go afk in general.
    Remove highly, anything that is not fair should be denied.
    Add not allowing voice-changing custom lr's (like saying "and I'm gay" after every order, or having to sing stuff, or having to talk in a high-pitched voice)
    HG is twice in your list.

    IDea: "When the warden dies, you must become afk frozen until warden is locked"

    First one will be removed then, I was aware of the double HG as Spartan notified me.
    The typo was originally in already, I didn't spellcheck every rule.
    Afk Blues have been happening a lot, and giving teambans instead of teamswitches seems a lot more effective in my eyes.
    I will add your suggestion to the list, as well as the final rule.

    Thanks for your input!

    There are some rules that currently exist that bother me. Such as "you must be AFK frozen to receive LR." Nobody follows that rule. nobody. Anyway, it is the warden's job to determine that. Another rule that bothers me is "Cloaking as baiting." I see it as reasonable in most cases, but what if you wanted to use the deadringer to protect yourself, and uncloaked around the corner out of sight? I do not see that as baiting. Baiting would be if I cloaked in their view to taunt them, or deadringed in their face.

    How do you distinguish in your face or to survive? No all forms of cloaking is baiting? Want to cloak because you are easy kill? Go heavy.

    In your face = infront of them or near them

    to survive = around a corner, out of sight.

    But how do you know, as an admin, if they did it to survive or to bait? You cannot know as you cannot always see them, this rule looks like you want to benefit yourself so you can cloak to run away. -1. Around a corner or out of sight suggests that you would never need to cloak and then you are not playing actively as you are not participating in the round as you are hiding. If you allow this rule it breaks other rules and delays the round.

    Look at it from a real kind of jail sight. If you get shot irl, you won't be able to live on. So why would you be able here then?
