I've recently added this to my ruleset:

Prodging

- A naked "prod dodge" does not reset the prod timer. To avoid being prodded/replaced for inactivity, include some game advancing content in your prodges.

Is this another rule that I can't use in future newbie games or would it be okay to include it? (This game will continue without the rule regardless).


any game advancing content, no matter how slight, even if it's just "prodge xxx is still scum" is enough for the prodge to reset the timer, but "will get to this later" isn't.

Sorry, only just saw the thread update now.

I've had a fair amount of experience with the rule and while it's not the majority, it's normal enough that I'd say it should be fine - but check with Mina or any newbie game precedents, because I'm definitely no expert on that one. gray area.

i'll ask her before the next newbie game i mod then, thanks. The last micro i modded would have been improved by it. Several townslots weren't playing but weren't proddable either.

I think my "you have until the next pagetop for twilight talk" rule is too complicated for newbie games; on twilight 1 i locked the thread because i wanted to go to bed and it seemed like they were done talking anyway and i'm feeling similar about twilight 2. it's 10pm, it's not like anti's here to message me on sitechat with "hey there's a hammer /backseat modding" to which i could reply pointedly "there is a hammer but there isn't a pagetop " to which he would helpfully spam twilight fanfic for me. I feel like if I don't lock the thread they'll just spend 2 days wondering what to do about it.

[Marquis]

site standard is to assume once mod gets there, mod will lock, so talk in twilight as fast as possible. fair decision on your part.

let me know if you ever need me to run votecounts or locks or anything - you've seemed pretty on top of everything so far even with your v/la.

[Plotinus]

If the flipped player requests to be flipped then I'll flip them sooner. Otherwise they can do serious twilight talk / co-ordinate night actions in games where that's a thing / play hangman / whatever they want until pagetop.

I put a note that if everybody requests short night then we can have that.

The v/las are mostly health related, but it hasn't been affecting my modding too much.

I did get a little behind on translating songs from Hungarian into English, but I caught up again.

[Plotinus]

my reading comprehension is really bad today, but in 92, does it look like witch hunter thinks the 1 shot bulletproof is also a 1 shot lynchproof? should we correct this misunderstanding or not saying anything?

[Marquis]

shouldn't correct it, but that's not exactly it anyway - I don't think he plans on counterclaiming as he's already said in-thread he thought Azorius was a cop. in other words "long day 3 with conftown" means he thinks if kim was BP, he could divert the lynch and witch wouldn't be able to kill him going into day 3, as I understand it

[Plotinus]

oh, that makes sense. thank you. i usually correct it if town doesn't seem to understand an unusual mechanic. but this isn't that.

conftown aren't so bad to deal with usually but Kim happens to be right about his reads too, and doing good analysis.


i think witch's easiest path to victory is chainlynching kim and smudger.

[Marquis]

locked thread with the hammer. not sure how you want endgame done so...

[Plotinus]

i'm here! Thanks, Marquis <3
