They should start PM'ing as soon as they wish. I'd like to be informed though who the one chosen to PM was but it would be enough the Night-talker would PM me who s/he will contact. But otherwise, people should just go for it . and I don't need any copies of the messages the Night-talkers send to each other. It's between them.

Also, I presume, from what you said, that all the Night-guards (well, of course in their case) and BGs will be publicly revealed, so that nobody chooses them. How does the Captain choose the BGs? Is there a form in which he writes it on the thread? (Like, for example, "++BG Boro and Valier") I think that is something that should be taken care of.

The Captain decides her/himself how s/he manages all that stuff. It depends on the person and the timezone... I mean one Captain could just PM me her/his choices right after the Day has ended but another might be sleeping and could possibly be online only after a host of hours so maybe s/he would give me some pre-thpoughts on that, like lists of wanted candidates etc.?. Anyway, we need to make a deal - the Captain and myself - as to how to do it. But all the parties to whom it matters will be notified (the wolves, the rangers fex.) as soon as possible.

Could you clarify it a bit? What does it mean "will be chosen"? Does it mean that you will choose him before the start? Or that we are bound to choose him on Day 1?

You have to choose a Captain on Day1. After that it's up to you whether you want to replace a dead Captain with a new one or whether you wish to change the person, but on Day1 you need to vote for a Captain.

By that you simply mean, that if during all the Day there was not a single vote for Captain, nobody can suddenly cast a for Captain one hour before DL? Is that right, or did you have something else in mind? By "Anyone can call for a Captaincy -vote at anytime during any Day" you mean just simply casting a vote for Captain, right? Or is there something else beyond it, like saying "I hereby call for a referendum today, let us vote for a Captain"? It's just phrased in a slightly confusing way (possibly unnecessarily).

The easy interpretation is once more the right one.

The idea is that you can call for changing the Captain simply by voting someone else as the Captain (highlighted vote & the word "Captain" included). Though naturally one would think a person would love to argue why s/he makes the suggestion but that's up to you.

EDIT: Oh, also btw, to the Night-talkers. What if one of them is targeted by the person who ruins the Nightly activities? (forgot what you called the role) In that case, it would be probably necessary to check up with you first before I PM Boro (to use the example I used above) to make sure he was not targeted by this Night-comm destroyer - if that affects him. Though I think it would be best if it didn't, because then it creates an impossibly long chain of events needed before anything can happen, which basically wastes the Night anyway (you need to PM me that I am the Night-talker, the Night-comm destroyer needs to PM you that he targets Boro, I need to PM you that I want to talk to Boro, you need to PM me that I cannot talk to Boro).

We'll make it the easy way here as well eg. we go as it goes. You are able to PM as soon as you get your "role" of a Night-talker (or BG or NG) and unless you are notified of anything different you may go on PM'ing with the people allowed. If the cobbler is able to send me her/his pick only later then the PMing is cancelled from the moment I get the message that it should end. So let's not make this too complicated.

EDITEDIT: Oh, and I presume with that Night-traitor, that by "can not prevent things two Nights in a row" you mean "cannot prevent the SAME PERSON from doing something two Nights in a row". Or in other words, cannot target the same person twice in a row. Because the way you phrased it it sounds a bit as if he could use his ability only once per two Nights, just so that it doesn't confuse anybody.

Yeah, soorry. I need to fix the wording... But your interpretation is right.


PS: I have just randomised the roles and will be sending them in a minute...
