But he wasn't gonna activate it, he was trying to avoid the nightkill but got the daykill instead. Well at least I hope he enjoys his dinner.
It was a joke because people questioned his claiming a phaser.

I think there were worse kills today, though I'm a little concerned I shouldn't have been defending Dip after he refused to vote Bona to save himself.
Do you think they are partners?
That's what I'm suggesting. My townread was real though, so I'm going to reassess after the adrenaline dies down a little.

@GM if we fail to send a message is the default save?

What if we all do it completely randomly?

Like have a 1/4 chance to use it every night and you roll a dice and honor the result?

Is that something that could work?

Would force the mafia to gamble every night

Probably on a curve, higher chances to use each night given that some people can't because they already did.

Not everyone owns a four-side die, although I guess it is safe to assume that the proportion of us who do own one is much greater than in the general population.

I thought rdr a greater chance of being scum than Bona and Dip was in a position to move to Bona.

Also you expressing surprise at the Dip wagon worried me.

Yep

Something like 1 in 4 N1, 1 in 3 N2, 1 in 2 N3

I had this same thought

So maybe 4/16 N1

Then 7/16 N2 of the remaining ppl

Then 10/16 N3 of the remaining ppl

Then 13/16 N4 of the remaining ppl

Y'all, again, the way this works best is if scum wildly misjudge how many phasers are being used (picking a risky target because they think they're being saved, or not killing/killing suboptimally when it was safe to kill their preferred target). The concepts of randomization and not saving them too long are both valid, but agreeing on a strategy in the thread or even suggesting one gives them info we don't want them to have. The ideas are out there. Make your own damn decisions.

Yes, that will be the default. But as the Captain of this ship, I like to know that my crew are paying attention and not sleepwalking into inaction.

I'm using my phaser and nobody else is. There, we're done.

Why were you concerned about a tie with three minutes left?
The vote was 4-3, and waiting to the last minute to consolidate votes is how we often end up with a tie as a result of cross posts or not being sure what the vote is.

My idea was that everyone randomizes a number between 1 and 4 and activates that night, so that everyone activates by N4. I think it is essentially the same as what you are saying, depending on what you are suggesting for N4.
