I meant 24/24 day night cycle ... it has been a long day

I am for retractable votes, just for the near-deadline fun of it.

If time allows I would prefer traditional length nights and no double lynchings. It gives playing such a nice continuous flow.

-- Retractable Votes
++ Double lynchings

I don't care either way about traditional night lengths or 12-hour nights.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 06-29-2006, 02:30 PM

Given that there's only one gifted with the potential to reveal him/herself, I suppose that double lynchings will be acceptable in this game.

Whatever you want, Valesse.

Formendacil · 06-29-2006, 02:32 PM

NO Double-Lynchings.

I cannot say, after Nilp's game, how strongly I dislike them. I disliked them on principle before that, but I have a personal issue with them now.

I prefer Non-Retractable votes, I think, but I don't really care.

24/12 cycles are fine with me... though I'd opt for the 24/24 version if given the choice.

If I get of the fence, preferred option is 24/24, retractable votes and no double lynchings but I uphold on principle the divine right of moderators

Don't suppose TP would honour us with his rather fabulous presence ?

Just a couple of ones:

- If we have only 10 villagers and one gifted, should there respectively be only two wolves? Otherwise the villagers are in quite a desperate position to begin with - not helped by the double-lynch option (three argumentative wolves, 1/3 of the population after the first kill) will be just happy to dance others to double-lynchings?

Currently the "Magic hour" is set to be 3 o'clock CST (2 EST and so on.) Please remember: With the abbreviated nights that would mean that some days will start ante meridiem, and others will start post meridiem.

I understand well the last part of this, but if someone has any clear and instant knowledge about what 3CST / 2EST are in GMT, I would appreciate it. Everyone can see the GMT from their BD window, but we Europeans will have to make a net search to find the CST/EST. (Sorry for being lazy with this)

- If three wolves, then:
-- double lynchings
++ retractables

- If two wolves, then anything goes

- Looking nice indeed! Just waiting for the starting whistle!

That's what I had to do, too.

3 CMT = 9 GMT (+6)

That's 11 where I live and 11 or 12 where you live (depending on whether you have Daylight Saving Time in Finland)

Mithalwen · 06-29-2006, 03:00 PM

Don't know if they have daylight saving, otherwise EST is GMT +5 so 2 EST would be 9 GMT
