There's good reason to try to over-hammer in the nights as that will prevent scum from changing the lim target compared to if we end up with wagons of say 7 v 6 and scum switch from who they've promised to vote. Having extra votes on the main wagon will weaken the ability to perform vote count analysis but I think that is pretty borked in this game anyhow.
good point, maybe optimally we all agree to vote whoever had the most votes at the end of the phase
and then scum pretend they counted wrong if anything weird with the flip happened
I'm probably not going to do this, sorry
I'm not even convinced it's the optimal thing to do. If scum change targets to avoid a particular elimination, that's info. And in this hypothetical 7v6 scenario, enough townies would want the 6-vote wagon eliminated anyway so it's not a bad flip
why would we not declare our voting intent before night ends
normal play allows for a claim, so i think we should try to figure out who is going to be voted out in the day before it happens
would suck if we just voted out all our power roles when we could avoid it
i don't mind declaring intent but i feel like nka can influence votes and people might change their votes based on it.
but then imo in an ideal world, we both declare our intents and then confirm who we voted for the night before and after.
and if anybody changes their vote, we can pressure them to explain themselves.

yh we claim votes tomorrow and not claiming/fakeclaiming is a policy lim

hi i am a mirage so all votes on me are actually on light_ganski
boop why always me

and why would we wait until afterward to say who we're intending to vote
Not what I'm saying, exactly. Giving intent before is good but I'm not going to policy someone for *changing their mind* provided that they are open about it straight away. I've changed my mind last minute before as town (in fact I think I do it more as town than scum)
*lying* about your vote is an instant policy lim when it gets found out

Is it ever worth declaring night actions?
Like if we split into groups of three and said "we're targeting this player"
Or we could just discuss who particular roles could target?
But I guess that doesn't work becasue we can have multiple of the same roll so that'd lose us equity
I've changed my mind, it's a bad idea

Would scum actually vote differently from what they say though
The main scenario is obvs if a scumbuddy is being wagoned. They can switch to save. The issue is they can also switch just to create paranoia about the above so that worries ne a bit.

Like El makes these sorta posts all the time tbh but it's the best thing I have to latch onto when most of the discussion so far has just been discussing how we should handle the voting situation.

Also if votes did exist right now I'd prolly chuck one on El, it's a hella nitpick but 87 reads as busywork for busywork's sake.
El who would you be voting right now?
Probably you accompanied with a "rude' after you vote me

Yea that's why I'm trying to start a push on you. Get some action going ykno
This is the sort of baseless accusaiton I'd expect from Red!Daisy
She's trying to stir things up for the soul purpose of causing chaos so she can manipulate the way the pieces fall back into place. I've seen her do it countless times in irl games. She's known in our mafia group as "Daisy the chaos gremlin"
If you don't believe me you can look and any of Daisy's red games and you'll see exactly that happening
