Here you go bram. Zurvan likes to pick fights.

See the difference is, that's zurvan. I didnt get the feeling he was trying to instigate anything with you personally. He was just being his normal caustic, sarcasm machine self.

It just felt like you were trying specifically to provoke him afterwards.

this game has added a level of variables that we aren’t use to. im trying to remove that level.

[/ QUOTE ]

The point of this game is to play with a different strategy, for wolves and villagers. Not to see how we can reduce a rule-set to basic WW.

[/ QUOTE ]
hmm, nobody other than me ever seems angered when people try to use the new rules as an angleshoot to help the village, but now i suggest something which seems like the best way to go for the village and isn’t an angleshoot, and i get resistance?
(resistance from wolves dmk, zurv mind you)

Im not sure voting for the best players on day 1 is the logical play.
Reasoning: If we vote for the best players on day 1, the players making the calls on the next days wont be as good.
If we have the same players making the calls on every day we have less players to choose from on the later days.
If we have less players to choose from on the later day our chances of losing increase.

[/ QUOTE ]

Im going to quote this because this makes sense.
And its not some random stuff I decided to write because I want to look useful, we need to have a lot of ppl to choose from on the latter days.

I think we see this game differently scott.

The village is going to have to go completely retardo to lose this, I think.

Mod Note: today will end at 10pm or whenever everyone has voted; whichever comes first



***Questions***

If a member of the voting bloc dies, do the remainder have their bloc advantage (2X vote if all together)?

No. All 4 must be alive and on the same person to get the double votes.


Can an elected guy be sent off to the governor? (e.g. A, B, C elected, can A+B gang up on C instead of an unelected citizen?)

No. The 3 electorates are immune that day.


Are the modified votes clear? That is, do you know for sure who has tie break ability when the election of the day is over or is it still a bit of a mystery only to become clear when the electorate votes are all in with a tie.

When Jared lists the 3 electorates for the day, they will be listed in order of most votes to least votes. So the top person in the list is the 'head electorate' with tie breaking ability.


If the dictator uses his power on or before day four do the people who were elected that day still count as having served on the electorate?

If the dictator waits until after 10:15 (or whenever Jared lists the 3 electorates) to take over, then the 3 listed WILL have eligibility from then on. If he uses his power before the mod lists the 3 for the day, then there will be no listing of the 3, so nobody will get eligibility that day except for the dictator.


Who do I pm actions to?

Night actions go to me; daytime actions before 4pm go to me; anything after 4pm (day actions, vote buying, dictator, etc) go to Jared; It doesn't hurt to send things to both of us if unsure as well

There's lots of good players on here. We can have 12 different people eligible by the end of day 4, and never have a bad player up there.
