so then the mod decides if it meanignful or not, and the mod knows all roles, now as a player im trying to decipher why this guy hasnt been killed

no :01 post stays :01 post (night) and :02 stays :02 post

you can still do the :00 good, :01 bad thing.
it just makes so much more sense.

"night falls at 8:00" and ":00 good, :01 bad" are contradictional.

its not an innocent mistake. its a deliberate conscious act. if its 1000, you dont post.
and if you notice, this isnt a game im modding, and i rarely mod, so its not about flexing muscles.

or just do night falls at :00, :59 good, :00 bad, as it should be. but people are way too used to :00 good so I would just say falls at :01.

this is the other option
not quite as good however due to the increase of angly posts.
i think you would see an increase in 01 posts (although totally legit if night posting is fine) that will probably be full of vote changes and seerish posts, and maybe even claims while vote counts are tabulated.

im not certain, maybe zurv could clear it up (historian and all), but i think the 00 good 01 bad thing originated in turbos?

I'm pretty sure when I'm a mod I'll be making my own decisions.

I recall that there was a differences of opinion and it was specified in game threads whether it was 01 bad or 00 bad, and we finally settled on 01.

Maybe if you take a really extreme definition. Personally I would consdier an angleshoot only as something done deliberately in order to try to get an advantage, no matter how slight, or something done accidentally that gives you a large advantage (and tbh I'm not even sure you can really call anything done accidentally an angleshoot). Accidentally posting after night has a minuscule effect on the game in 99% of cases and to class it the same as posting your role pm or similar offences is just completely absurd.

Yea - that's an angleshoot.

im not saying 01 isnt bad. im saying it is bad. im just saying its REALLY BAD.

not picking on gotgame here, but its a recent example:

gotgame is itt, hes posting, acting like hes debating things. zomg wolf is up in the voting like 3-2, gotgame hasnt voted yet. gotgame votes zomg at 1001 (no idea how long after 1001, could have been only a couple seconds up to 10?)

do you think this effects my thoughts about gotgame at all?
