Question: can that myth guy choose a dead villager? And is the village aware of the person that is chosen?

Additional rule.

At the end of the Day (or earlier if a majority is reached before this) the player with the most votes is lynched (killed) and their secret role is revealed. If votes are tied at the end of a full 24hr day a player will be selected at random from ALL PLAYERS LIVING AND UNDEAD and will be deemed to have been killed in the crush of the mob.. To retract a vote embolden the name with -- before it and cast a new vote. EG: -- Mithalwen ++ Erenor. If you retract a vote and do not give a new vote you will be deemed to have voted for yourself.

If you do not vote and unassailable majority is not reached. You will be deemed to have voted for yourself.


Remember - you have a retractable vote.

The Mythomaniac may only choose from those living at the end of day 1. If I were starting again I would have said that if they choose the same bod as the wolves they are dead too. the person they choose will not be publically revealed until the game is over.

BTW Please use characters names not the names of the people they impersonate... there are ways of indicating that you know without spoiling the pleasure of recognition for others. Thank you.

Hmm... so if seven votes are not reached, what happens? does the Day continue until they are? Or is the person with the most votes lynched? Or do you choose somebody random?

While I am disappointed by the turnout. This was posted in the first post on this board and it will stand. Off to fix the gallows.....................

It's also the day the US finally beat us Brits, so they're all off and partying. Voter turnout should be higher new Day.

If things don't improve .....hmmmm I feel Gil was unlucky since the uncast vote could theoretically have changed things but it seemed unfair to go completely random when most had tried. I will have to ponder the way ahead but I am very disappointed


Right Night has started.

Wolves and the Hunter/ guardian may communicate.

The wolves need to tell me who the want to kill

The guardian needs to tell me who they want to protect,

The mythomaniac needs to tell me the name of the player they want to match with.

It would be helpful but less essential for the hunter to tell me who they want to kill in the event of their death tonight.

Sleep peacefully children.

But Mith after a while it will become impossible to reach a 7 vote majority because there won't be enough people to make this work. What then?
