Will you extend the days/nights around christmas and/or New year's eve?

Just wondering since I'll be gone the evening of the 24th and 25th (family traditions)...

Christmas day will fall on a night phase. Will people be happy if I just leave it at 24 hours duration? Or, I can extend it, if people will be completely gone that day and thus not able to send in any actions.

EDIT: Deadline updated to 12 KST.

If everything goes according to plan, yes.

Day 1: Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
[image loading]

Santa Claus looked down at his list, as he went through the names.

"Hmmm... Mr. Wiggles, Naughty... Lanaia, Nice... Qatol, Definitely very Nice... and Foolishness, oh my, he's been a Naughty boy this year, it seems!"

Beside each name, he made a mark indicating his decision, and as his pen scratched the paper, each ruling was sealed. Rolling up the piece of paper, he handed it to one of his elves to bring down to the others, in order to prepare for Christmas Night. Moving on, he unrolled the next list of names, to continue the process.

"Now, what do we have next? Oh, what's this? The town of Liquidia it would seem. My, my, there's some very naughty boys and girls who live there. But, it seems that the rest of them don't know about it... Hmm, those few rotten apples seem like enough to ruin Christmas for the whole town with their corrupting influence. Well, the rest of the town better find a way to correct their bad behaviour, or Santa Claus won't be coming to Liquidia this year!"

And with that, he let out a great, heaving, laugh, "HO HO HO". He would enjoy watching the events that would be sure to unfold in Liquidia.

Day 1 has begun! It's time to decide the first lynch!

Guess I'll go first

What do you guys think of policy lynches?
I think people usually end up discussing Lynch All Lurkers and Lynch all Liars pretty soon anyways so might as well start it off.

Lynching liars seems like a no-brainer to me. If your a townie just don't lie, it is anti-town and only leads to trouble.
Lurkers are a little bit more complicated. It's much harder to get a solid read on a lurker since they aren't giving much content so they end up hurting the town a lot especially if they survive until the late game.
I would prefer to try to get a strong lynch based off of analysis day1 but day1 lynches are rarely successful, it we can't agree on player who is giving off strong scum vibes than it is better to choose a lurker for the day 1 lynch, they will always remain a null read and can provide an easy scapegoat for scum.

This is usually how it works imo. Lynch All Liars is a great policy lynch. Lynch All Lurkers also great, except that there are usually too many lurkers to lynch all of them.

Without these policy lynches, mafia can get out in too many situations.

Also, I've never played with any of you guys, so if you guys could link me to any games you guys played recently, that would be nice. I'm a bit too lazy to look stuff up right now.

Hey again Grack

I concur that lynching all liars is a no-brainer. Lying to the town, even with the best intentions at heart, is just plain stupid. For example, claiming a blue role as a vanilla might seem like a great idea (to draw role blocks or night shots) but when you cant produce the powers that you claim to have, you'll waste an entire day cycle with the town hanging you, or worse, a blue that counter-claims you. Just don't do it.

Lynching lurkers is a different beast. I was wholly against lynching lurkers at the beginning of Student Mafia, but as the game drew on, I couldn't help but wonder if maybe one of the reds was hiding out among them. Turns out, there was. For that reason, hanging a lurker can sometimes hit gold, and we should consider hanging a lurker if no obvious scums present themselves.
