Rules mostly taken from Mirai's previous game cuz I'm all lazy:

In the beginning, I come in as the Judge and as Gumshoe. As the Judge I explain the situation, and then I give testimony as Gumshoe, whom sets up the basic story. After Gumshoe's initial testimony, the players may take action, and the lawyers from both sides may ask for any clarifications from the detective before the defendant is called to the stand.

He will be followed by the prosecution calling their first witness, who will be the victim. The defense will then call their next witness, then the prosecution, and so on.

Witnesses can be recalled to the stand by attorneys on either side should the testimonies of later witnesses shed light on questions only they can answer. However, this will only be allowed once for each witness, so choose your opportunities carefully, attorneys.

Witnesses are to follow their given testimony guidelines. If they do not, that will be contradictory and it will damage their credibility.

The Players...
Judge Godot/Gumshoe: POS Industries
Defendant: Ryanderman
Clerk: PyrosNine

The Defense...
Mia Fey: Shyria Dracnoir
Phoenix Wright: Loyal
Apollo Justice?: Rejected Again
Witness: Flarecobra
Witness: Fenris

The Prosecution...
Floyd: Arhra
Edgeworth: Mac
Franziska von Karma: The SSB Intern
Witness: Magic_Marker
Witness: NonCon

Guidelines for testimony are thus:
1) Testimony given can't contradict Gumshoe.
2) Testimony given can't contradict your own earlier testimony, though that's not something to be enforced more than it will just make you look stupid.
3) Testimony cannot contradict what I've told you at all. If you have a question about your role and you aren't sure how to reply, PM me. I will explain further.

Any contradictions are perfectly open for either side's cross-examination to object to.

This would encourage creativity, allow room for screw-ups, but doesn't totally rape a case if someone is lying. It also nicely organizes it so that your most important witness can be at the beginning, because they set the story up. At the end I judge fairly and evenly (PfffhahahahahaHA!).

Also; Judging is based off of a variety of factors, not just who was more convincing. Try to keep it fun.
