Really should've given everyone 24 hours and then whoever, at the end of that, had 40, won.
And if there were multiple 40's, then whoever had 40 CORRECT
and if multiple 40's were CORRECT, leave it to either a judge of quality of entry or a random roll.

Just seems unfair to gate it solely on time.

Please don't announce this.
If you're town, it gives scum a very clear indicator of who is powered up.

It becomes more vague once people start winning multiple times and handing out rewards, though.
Scum's goal here is probably to off whoever wins this minigame or to win it for themselves.
They want to keep town from winning multiples in a row because then they have a much harder time figuring out who go the powerup.

Yeah actually I think what I should have done is allowed people to pick a time to be sent the list

Something to think about is whether you should let the others have at it or try to win and then gift away if you’ve already won.

Yeah that makes sense. Whoever could do it in the quickest time from getting the list PM would be winner.
That's probably a fairer way to go about it.
Just something to keep in mind with setup design moving forward
But if you want it to be intrinsically designed to benefit people who live in certain timezones/don't have jobs, etc. then go for it
It's not that huge of a deal, imo.

Because that's his role :P

I don't really know what you're asking me here or even why you're asking me instead of RC but I think my answer is "I think RC neighbourised Firebringer because they get on well with each other".

Really we're all winners if we had fun but sadly having fun doesn't unlock your minigame role PM


Also I'm having my girlfriend over for dinner so my priorities are way elsewhere and don't expect me to close the minigame for a while
Damn. I hope the future minigames aren't so dependant on being online immediately. Sleep + College = A sad mutant in regards to this game.

Sure am glad we spent all of this day phase bickering over something that was started and settled in the span of time in which I was asleep

Dont think I'm gonna bother with any of these, I'd rather play mafia than "dont sleep: the game"

Alternatively, everyone claims that they didn't even try and the mafia will be completely clueless ;)

My commute to my morning shift began before the damn thing was even sent out and my workspace is really strict about firewalling image uploaders since we aren't supposed to upload anything from our workstations to anything but our work's private server.
That said, I still gave it a shot. :/

It's annoying because most image hosts people use are blocked so when people upload images via stuff like imgur, I can't see them/react until I get home.

But yeah, stuff like the timestamp image and minesweeper clock that I couldn't find with a regular image search were impossible, since I couldn't take a picture/upload here.
I'm hoping other people just kinda beefed it when it came to their submissions and got some wrong.
I think JJH is UK-based or something because he uses terms like 'Jumper' and 'Series' instead of 'Sweater' and 'Season'.
It's like when someone refers to a season of something as a Cour--you know they're an anime nerd.

If you want to convince people to follow your vote then you might want to actually explain why you're voting here. Because all I can see of your reasoning is simple "she claimed".

Yeah. No more time related games, that's unfair to some people.
How do you expect to find the culprit when you're all worried about each other's feelings? If you're planning to expose a liar, then you have to corner them psychologically.

@mod is it one mini game a day. Or can multiple happen in a day.

I definitely agree with this! Like maybe have 3-4 times allocated (Eg. 10am, 4pm, 10pm) and we can pick the one that works best for us, something like that?
