SPECIAL EVENT: A HUMANE DECISION

This is the first of the events I have been mentioning in the game overview. Since it is only Day 1 and there is not much to go with, the team of peaceful scientists has decided not to go with a lynch with the risk of butchering possible innocents.

What this effectively means for the game is that there will be no lynch toDay.

There will be also no Night kill among the players to balance it. Locking up Inziladun in the compartment is merely a narrational tool, it will not have any effect on the game whatsoever (if the person has any Night activities, he can still perform them) and Inziladun would be released at the beginning of next Day.

ToMorrow, the game will resume as normal, and no other cancellations like this will happen for the rest of the game (we'll be lynching and killing people permanently from now on as usual). You can use the Day 1 as a tool for extra information about the people, so effectively, you can consider this "pre-Day 1" and your "real" Day 1 (so to say, in terms of lynching) starts only now. But as you have genuine (or "genuine") votes cast from yesterDay (as nobody knew about this event), you will be able to use them toMorrow as material for analysis - thus, it will be like a Day 1, but with the difference of having already some record from the previous Day to go on with... surely I can leave it now to your minds.
