We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
Firstly you aren't allowed to post links to other fora.
Also why would you have days ending prematurely? You can't change your vote? If so then that is just stupid.
What is the point in having a dedicated day phase anyway?
Thank you, I edited my post. Sorry about that.
You can change your vote freely (and also unvote), but days will end early if a majority is reached on someone. But if no majority, then the person with the most votes at the end of the day phase is the one lynched.
Not sure I understand the last question.
Why have it end on majority? That means that you for instance can't combat an outing, since before you can piece a defense together you will have a majority and get lynched. Ending days primatorily just seems really stupid.
Also what happens in the case of a TIE?
I meant what is the point in having a day phase and a night phase; why not have it happen at the same time like we do here? I.e. daily and nightly actions are reported on at the same time and nightly actions are decided on and discussed during the day.

The way we play werewolf here is rather special compared with most other sites. Just check some other mafia/werewolf sites and see how the game is played there.
Once you have done that you will understand that your questions are silly.

Main advantage is that it gives players time to think about and analyze the previous day before setting orders (including the day's results). You don't have to be online at deadline to make an order change due to an outing or so on and you can take into account the result of the lynch when setting a scan/protection/hunt. This is more important in games where PMs aren't allowed, since you won't have any outside input for your orders unlike in a JL.
But if those 12 hours of night falls on your IRL night you will be sleeping and working during it and won't get to use it anyway.
By the way how do packs coordinate when PMs aren't allowed?
I mean, without giving really long periods you can't make it work for everyone. But most people don't sleep for twelve hours and should be able to hop on, read the update and a few pages and make an informed decision.
Packs are given their own hidden private forum to communicate on.
What I meant is that you sleep for 8 hours, then get up and go to work and before you get a chance to look at the game the 12 hours are up.
Also how is making a private forum better than using PMs?
And why couldn't the JL get a private forum too?
You just do it before you go to bed or when you are up. It just means that you have to adjust your daily program.
You can only access it during the night.
JL's don't exist.
How does outings happen then? The seer outs the wolf and gets eaten in the night? Sounds like giving the baddies quite an advantage.
I mean, I suppose there are fringe cases where that might happen. But I'm sure most could stay up a few extra minutes or spend a few minutes in the morning doing it. You can still usually send night orders during the day. The night phase just gives people with night powers time to think about and analyze their orders before sending them instead of now where we send orders right away.
I mean, it's not really. It's just how most are set up and it gives the GM more control over who can see it and when and such.
Because other forums don't have the concept of a JL. And JL forums would get messy. It's rare that a JL fully trusts each other and wants to give out all info to every member and there's also issues with handling joining and the like.
Yes.
As I said before we play werewolf here in a complete different way compared with other sites. So games also have to be set-up/balanced differently.
You don't usually do outings. The seer has to try to steer the lynches without being obvious that they know the player is a baddie. Also sometimes a strategy is used where everyone is expected to post something each day that would go something like:
"If I was the seer, then [player] is a [villager/wolf]".
Where the seer posts their true scans and everyone else just makes up stuff. Then if the seer is ever killed you just go back and find all their posts in that format, find the people they listed as wolves and lynched them.
