to be perfectly honest with you having scum openly reveal themself is pretty good. But I tried to mitigate that waste of a phase through scum's secret ability: use the gun to shoot anyone of your choice, then die yourself
Why scum didn't use that ability -- well, they were trying to win the duel legit i suppose!
I missed that "Put bullet in slot 1, shoot opponent" was such a strong strategy that you'd ignore the secret action in the case of the bulletproof glass getting put up though. Fortunately didnt happen.

Well, but that was only avaliable for the second chosen player. Not the first.
I am probably going to instate a private communications rule in my future games that prohibits players from referencing private mod communications unless explicitly told otherwise.
that would allow me to be more detailed in my warnings and have more leniency to give them when I think it's necessary. As it is I worry too much about influencing the game but I let a toxic environment go
In my warning to peta I made it clear not to reference that in-game for example
Also possibly considering a pronoun key or something. I don't think I'd have it on every VC but I think i would list pronouns on the first and have a link to it on every other VC, maybe?
how many mafias are there? do they have daytalk (also @ydrasse with regards to maybe no pt during duel, we’ve been told is nightless and they have daytalk so)

we send four ubertowny people across? scum just bumps one off
Maybe, but more importantly, scum doesn't get to kill the towniest player that they want to kill

Alternatively, we can send 5 people across, (if we win at 4, great) and then everyone else let's the time run out so that the next even only has 5 people.
No

So we actually want to send the bottom four of the pool of 8 we want through first
Not really sure why I didn't warn scum in advance about this event. It was not written in the secrets. I probably had a reason at the time but I do not know what it was.

Maybe because scum has enough power and doesn't deserve all the info?
although i dont like the tactic of "Rush everything before scum has time to understand what is happening" which is primarily what id try to counter. This event is a little tricky

That's also risky for town, if town misunderstands the event. In any way, quick and sound reactions to unexpected events(e.g. watcher guilty results, cop results on unknown millers) are also a skill scum needs to have.
to be clear the "Maybe I don't pay my actors enough" is a joke referencing how no one is getting paid and doesnt have anything to do with who repped out
Also not that it matters but the stagehands aren't paid either, they're here because they want to be
