What's the difference between the color groups for town?
I haven't quite thought of it yet, but I'm certain I could do something with it. :lol:

Could put them at odds with each other, but that's what the Tribes are doing, too. Maybe make them susceptible to Scum recruitment of the same color... or instead give those Townies color-specific Cop abilities. Maybe even just hint like 'Your wincon is to kill Scum. Are X and Y also Scum...?' or something of the sort.
Yeah, ton of directions you can go.

I wouldn't pit them against each other though --> Too many different groups, I think it fragments the town too much.

So is hot chocolate actually a newbie, or is she an alt? Does anybody know?

Also, I can tell I am going to have lots of trouble following this game lol. Its been fifty plus pages since I last check and I had to spend nearly two hours to get caught up.

We will soon find out, for she will be here herself.

Hammer fell on page 63. Everyone lost.

I am looking forward to Nahdia's picks.

It's only a shame if it happens to me.
If it happens to someone else, it's hilarious.

Hot Chocolate might have been trolling. They didn't take it well.

I can't imagine trying to verify all 22 votes for validity before posting a flip. That's insane.

To clarify, I mean the players didn't take it well.

Some of the reactions to Hot Chocolate's antics were amusing, but it's probably not worth reading all 63 pages.

lynching fast for the first few days is actually I think correct play in a setup of this size. there is no reason whatsoever to bother dragging the game on every single day with so many players.

Doesn't look like trolling as much as being overwhelmed and newbie omgus to me.

That's the one thing I never do when I mod (and probably should): Check votes.

That said, players generally catch any errors that pop up and I practicaly never miss a vote. (More oftem.I forget to delete/update stuff in the VC rather than miss a vote)

Fair enough.

62 pages in 1 day... God bless us all.

Lucky, the following days will probably be shorter as all the momentum is loss.

Yes, I'm not lying.

I'm more worried about posting the wrong flip or sending someone the wrong role pm or something like that rather than a lynch occuring when there wasn't one.

I should double-check myself, but I rarely ever do.... So I hope I did it correctly.

You should check the votes before flipping because it's a big enough mistake to make the extra effort worthwhile. Players don't necessarily catch mistakes in vote counts; I know I usually take them for granted unless I'm already doing my own record-keeping.

I figure that players are aware of who they currently are voting and would notice if that's not the case.

Aka, each player is responsible for their own vote, but I guess you are right.

Probably wouldn't take so long I guess.

Pedit: Indeed

I would say it was bad they didn't wait for a claim, but a claim probably wouldn't have saved Hot Chocolate here anyway.
