Town only gets 1 miselim though, and then you are forced to guess right. I don't think the "town does well in nightless" applies as you are getting so little info in comparison to a longer nightless game.

hot potato
6 vanilla townies

3 mafia goons


Nightstart, blitz timing

At night, mafia chooses a number of passes between 5 and 15 (inclusive) and a player to start with the potato. They have no factional kill.

During the day there is no voting. Instead, if a player holds the potato for more than 12 hours, is holding it when the day ends, or receives it after the predetermined number of passes, they are eliminated.

A player with the potato may pass it to anyone else, except the person that passed it to them.

Passing the potato with less than 12 hours left in the deadline adds 3 hours to the deadline.

If, at any point, the number of town is 1 greater than the number of mafia, the game returns to normal day voting rules. If a member of the mafia is eliminated while in this state, the potato passing rules begin again.


Just wanted to document this somewhere other than discord because I might run it as a memey micro. Could also be a fun marathon game.

imagine recieving the pootato at 9:30pm and waking up 9:31 am
The blitz timing would be made clear in sign ups so people know they need to check in every 12 hours.

There's always a need to check in close to deadlines in games if you let it get close, that's a feature not a bug.
