Tunnel doesn't trigger during cleanup anyway, right?

I mean, I did say I was mostly unavailable over weekend. anyway, back to normal schedule now. So should be able to post somewhat more.
If you think you will be unable to post, please specify that you will be V/LA. There's a difference, at least to me, between being unable to post "too much" and simply not posting.

Twas a sad night for the green eggs in the nest. Although some of them had hatched, it would be a few weeks before they could fly. Therefore, it was no big surprise when faust, a cop, was pushed out of the nest, falling to the ground. The eggs had to find who was responsible for this! Could they, or would they all meet the same fate?

As the eggs sat in the nest, pipping to each other, they decided it would be best to get rid of the red eggs. Unfortunately, their shells being in the way made that hard to do. They had to take their best guess though, and succeeded in pushing a suspicious egg out of the nest.

« on: February 20, 2022, 02:45:47 pm »6. If a majority exile is not reached by the Day's deadline, a plurality exile takes place. If there is a tie, the player who has had that number of votes for the longest is exiled.
Could you confirm if this is exactly what you mean?
Suppose A has 5 votes and B has 4 votes. Then just before deadline someone moves off A so that they've got 4 each. B gets exiled because they've been on 4 for longer?
Suppose A has 6 votes and B has 4 votes. Then just before deadline someone moves from A to B so that they've got 5 each. They both hit 5 votes at exactly the same moment. Who gets exiled?
In other games I've seen majority exile tiebreaking done in favour of the player who was most recently in the lead.
Yes, this is exactly what I meant. For your first example, your assumption is correct. For the second example, I will consider a player switching votes to have an implied unvote in between, so A would be exiled.
(I realized when setting up the vote count spreadsheet that the way you said would be simpler and more intuitive. I'm not changing it in the middle of the game though.)

Night 1 only
- The N2 town hatch is chosen. If it is not investigative, there is a 50% chance it will hatch N1 instead. This means that if this player is exiled D1, there will be no N2 town hatch. If the N2 town hatch fails due to too many town being hatched, this choice is discarded.
Hi J Reggie, where it says "if this player is exiled D1", should that be "D2"?
Also, at what point during Night 1 is the N2 town hatch chosen? Before or after kills? Could there be no N2 town hatch because the selected player got killed N1?
Yes, that should read "D2".
It is before night kills, so that player could also be night killed.

So the Tree Stump can hatch, but they won't be told that they're hatched. Do they have the same chance of hatching as any other role?
And then, when they die, if they have already hatched (even though they don't know it) they will become a tree stump. On the other hand, if they die without hatching, they will just die like anybody else. Is this right?
This is correct.
