The thing is if we manage to have enough votes that the remaining votes don't matter we can seal the coalition already (similar to the world congress mechanic in civilization) and we can then learn if we have a 5 Town coalition or not. As long as the margin is small the hammer doesn't occur.

Well it's nothing carved in stone, but how do you explain "hammer" relating to the coalition?

Five people with five votes each is my guess

That wouldn't seal it if there are still votes available with someone else having 4 votes on them. I view it as an election. As long as the margin is not larger than the uncounted votes you can't declare a winner.
Almost mind double-checking with nsg on that? a majority lynch is still a lynch, even if there are enough no votes that somebody else could theoretically get more. i believe "hammering" the coalition would work the same way.

oh and it's not 5 people with 5 votes each, either. it has to be 5 identical coalitions. that's the hammer condition.

mod could you confirm/deny this?
that's why she's marking identical coalitions.

Sure.
@Mod: How does the coalition "hammer" work? Is it the first 5 players to have 5 or more votes, or is it when remaining "no votes" cannot change the outcome, or is it when everyone has 5 players in their own ballot?
it's not the 5 players with the most votes, it's the coalition group with the most votes. my coalition would never stack with one that doesn't include Gamma for the purposes of a coalition hammer, no matter how many other players match.
pedit: it's none of those i believe. read the first run of this game.

there's only been one full ballot, hence only one valid "vote".
the majority coalition gets a superscript 1. the next-highest gets a 2, etc.
let me get the link.

it's really important that we all understand how the coalition vote works. my bad on not realizing this wasn't clear earlier.
