I certainly can't sit around and watch for a filibuster all day. So what will need to happen is the person who is filibustering will post
Initializing Filibuster
and must post on one specific topic which directly relates to werewolf. People may continue to post while the filibuster is in progress, but they may not vote until it ends.
The filibuster will end either when:
1) the player in question types End Filibuster
2) at least half of the surviving village votes
++cloture
which will force the filibuster to end
3) the player who is filibustering fails to post within the required time, which is every two minutes according to what the 'Downs clock says.
Example:
If Filibuster Post 1 occurs at 12:01pm EST Downs Time, then Filibuster Post 2 must occur before the clock changes to 12:04pm EST Downs Time.
This will be self-moderated, as players will be able to see for themselves what time the post went through.
No player is allowed more than one filibuster per game. I'm looking at you, Misters Phantom and 88.
Of course the simplest way to deal with a filibuster will be to keep it from happening at all, in which case one votes prior to it occurring:
++No Filibuster
At least one half of the village must vote against a filibuster every Day to keep one from occurring.

Summary:
You'll want to either approve or deny a filibuster every day.
If a filibuster occurs, the only way to end it is to vote it down with ++cloture. Voting to end a filibuster is not the same as voting for a Representative or voting for a werewolf.
A filibuster may occur at any time during the Day, meaning that if a player filibusters before Representatives are chosen, no Representatives may be chosen until the filibuster ends.
A filibustering player is equally disallowed from voting while s/he is filibustering.
My advice to you all? Don't let a filibuster happen and you won't have to figure out how to stop it.
