dead player communication is honestly usually more bad for the mafia than anything else

like being unable to ever silence somebody correct just kinda sucks ass

I helped make the last Halloween mash on MU, and there was a role that might allow 1 dead player the chance to send a 25 emoji message to the living. Dead chat went feral when they learned this could happen. That was par for the course. It was also very powerful and that was after we made it pretty clear that most ways of gaming it (i.e. responding to a list of 25 players with a binary village/wolf emoji) were not going to make it into the thread. The issue with dead interaction isn’t enthusiasm, it’s that it’s an unkillable Mason chat that includes all the players the wolves prioritized killing.

(To be clear, the role went ~as expected. It was a bastard game and a very fun role, but even a 25 emoji message from the dead is extremely strong.)

this is why in PAC my spec chat interaction mechanic included a way for wolves to influence the outcome (by having one of them as a plant in spec chat)

It’s food-safe so we can use it as a giant cutting board

We have this wire rack that had a wood panel counter on top of it. Wood got mouldy because it was not sealed and next to the sink where we put dishes. Thus it is time for plastic
