I have a semi-open normal setup I could run. Some people have expressed a preference for a normal game, but I don't want to stall out Swowl's game.

Is it correct that neither the town nor the mafia win condition interacts with the (guaranteed to exist) third party? That pretty severely limits what the third party could be.

Also /out, the delayed flip mechanic doesn't sound fun to me.

If this is an RMM, it should probably follow the RMM numbering.

/in though I'd like to see more of the central mechanic before fully committing.

That's a great idea! But I think it will usually be rather weak since you can't use any +$ or +buy generated by the Actions played at Night. The below-the-line text only allows you to return from Night phase to the Action phase in the rare case when there's also a Night gainer in the kingdom (Changeling would be a strong combo). Otherwise you can only return from the Buy phase to the Action phase upon buying Eclipse, so there's no synergy with its on-play effect.

Eclipse turns every Action gainer into a Night gainer though, that's the synergy.

And yeah, misunderstanding the Bomb role was part of the reasoning for killing mcmc.

I'll leave opening them scum chat (and potentially speccy?) to the mods, but here's an overview of our Night actions:

N1:
faust kills mcmc
Cuzz blocks shraeye
Jimmmmm cops scolapasta

N2:
Jimmmmm kills Awaclus
Jimmmmm cops Swowl
Cuzz blocks scola

N3:
Cuzz blocks scola
Jimmmmm kills joth
Jimmmmm cops fang

N4:
Jimmmmm kills Swowl

N5:
faust kills Didds

I'm sorry.  I was never going to have a case to convince me to vote faust. This is why you don't lie as town, btw. It comes back to bite you no matter how innocuous it seems at the time.

The major problem with the lie as town here was that scum knew from the very beginning that scola was lying, so really all the benefit went to us.

Thanks, everyone! It was a fun game, though I was also quite happy that I didn't have to invest all the time building cases and such on the final Day.

If I have one minor design criticism, it's that the risk/reward ratio on the powers that were triggered by having a Goon vote was a bit off.

I know that she basically took all the bad ideas of the left party and went to found an alternative party based on them.

(this was my impression as a low-information voter anyway)

As a member of the left party, I mostly agree.

Did no German public figures make your list because you don't care about them or because you want to keep it internationally accessible?

Within Germany, Sahra Wagenknecht easily tops the list.

This must be a bit disappointing to the people in the speccy. Sorry guys!

EFHW, you haven't said much so far. Are you set on scola as the exile?

Game moments to investigate, for posterity:

1. The D1 infang/EFHW wagon
2. The D1 scola wagon
3. Jimmmm's and Cuzz's attitudes towards scola on D2
4. The D3 infangthief/EFHW wagon
5. The scola/Jimmmmm counterclaim situation on D4

I would also like to direct your attention to Cuzz voting me and staying on me when I was receiving enough suspicion to be at risk of being exiled. Day 4.

Noted.

I would also be happy with a deadline extension. I probably won't get around to any major rereading until after the weekend.

Well EFHW's quick vote threw me. But I guess the only way Jimmmmm is town is if you are scum, and you are certainly not the type of scum to take a victory lap by trolling everyone.

I do want to put some work into finding Didds' partner to hopefully help Tomorrow but right now my priority is getting my thoughts on Didds down, which I'm working on.

Or, because if you can make my exile happen then it is game over. Which is different than why faust is calling you lazy.

I'm not really sure what you're saying here. Yes it is my job on behalf of my team to try to make your exile happen Today, as it is your job to exile me. I don't even think faust was serious about calling me lazy, I just didn't immediately do what he asked me to.

Oh I was definitely serious.

Care to explain why?

I don't really have much interest in engaging with this, no. You clearly have no interest in scumhunting and so I have no interest in talking to you.

I am ready to vote for Jimmmm and have been since the beginning of the day. faust is your vote real, or just because you were annoyed at Jimmmm? I have obviously have zero fear of the quixile.

Well it makes me kind of sad that you're asking this because it means that my posts so far did not sufficiently get across my state of mind.

But yes I am ready to exile Jimmmmm.

I wouldn't characterise that as refusal but like, so? Not doing what you say when you say it is conclusive evidence?

Pretty much. My analysis is finished, and it points to you being scum. If you're not challenging that analysis, then my conclusion is going to be that it's correct.

Which important things do you think are still to said today?
