Question: Is the "Republic vs. Democracy" thing just an American thing?
I've heard Americans talk about how "America is a republic not a democracy". Using the standard definitions of those words it doesn't make any sense, however if you use the ridiculous definitions those people come up with than it is true. Does anyone outside of the US use this ridiculous dichotomy or is it just Americans?

I just saw the new ghost ratings. Appears that previously post rankings have changed. I thought that once posted they were locked.

People You Know
So, when it comes to friends and family, one should only play password protected games with them. But what about people I am meeting at face to face games in clubs in my state? What about if I start getting involved in the tournament scene? How do the more experienced players on here handle it? At what point does it become inappropriate to play in public games with people you have met through the game?

I don't get the point of the Jammer role. Does it jam anything else besides the main thread and the Mafia QT? If Mafia QT is jammed, does that mean the Mafia get no nightkil and no roleblock that night? Why would the Jammer ever use their power? Are all PMs jammed as well? There are no actions at all that night? What happens to the Arsonist that MUST visit another player?
ghug (5068 D(B))
08 Oct 16 UTC
Confirmed.
xorxes (31128 D)
08 Oct 16 UTC
If the Arsonist is infected, do they kill anyone they visit, since they would be infecting them with the visit, or do they not kill them is they were not infected prior to that visit?
DemonRHK (100 D(B))
08 Oct 16 UTC
##GM NOTE:

The Informant was a typo based on a old version of the setup.

The Jammer will disallow posting in the Maf QT and the main game thread for that night.

Gunshots are immediate process, not an action.

An infection happens at the end of a visit. The arsonist will see an uninfected person, then infect them as they leave.

Infected people are notified at the end of the Night after they are infected. Thus the 2 N0 infections will be PMd at EoN1
xorxes (31128 D)
08 Oct 16 UTC
"Gunshots are immediate process, not an action."

Even at night? If someone has already submitted a night action but then are shot after that, their action is cancelled?

"An infection happens at the end of a visit. The arsonist will see an uninfected person, then infect them as they leave."

OK. Same with Doctor vaccination then? If the Doctor is infected, when they vaccinate someone they infect them instead of curing them, right?
DemonRHK (100 D(B))
08 Oct 16 UTC
##GM NOTE:

Yes. If someone is shot and killed, their action will not be processed at end of night.

No, the Doctor does not spread infection on a Vacc visit, the doctor is equipped to deal with the infection and the same gear that would stop them from catching it is actually working in reverse, stopping the patient from catching it from the doc.

##CALL GM:

Is the Inventor's vest active as soon as it is handed out? i.e. is someone who receives a vest safe from a non-Strongman Mafia kill that same night?

The Mafia roleblock is not listed as "visit". Does it count as a visit for purposes of infection?
xorxes (31128 D)
08 Oct 16 UTC
@ghug, since you've read the setup, can you explain what the Jammer is for?
DemonRHK (100 D(B))
08 Oct 16 UTC
##GMN:

The vest is recieved at EoN and is active at that point, it will not save same night

Oversight, updating now.
DemonRHK (100 D(B))

##GMN:

xorx, the Jammer blocks communication, as in no posting for the entire night phase.

@xorxes, I really don't remember the setup. I intend to play mostly blind like last game.
xorxes (31128 D)
08 Oct 16 UTC
@DemonRHK, I get that, but I don't get the point. Why would Mafia want to block night communication that mostly benefits Mafia?

And do they lose their nk and rb, since they can't post in their QT?

##GMN:

The vig and the inventor gun are anytime shots. Even at night they are processed immediately and must be done prior to EoN. As the shot person would not be alive when EoN began to process, any action they may have would be invalid.

So does the virus kill people, or does it just give them the 'Infected' status?
xorxes (31128 D)
09 Oct 16 UTC
The virus starts killing once the Bioterrorist dies, not before. It also allows someone infected to be killed by the Arsonist.

@ Chaqa: I don't think it's bullshit. It's not logical that shots at night would be processed according to a completely different mechanic than shots during daytime.

FWIW in the game I was GM for, I would have adjudicated night shots like this - it just happened that nobody fired a shot at night during that game.
DemonRHK (100 D(B))
09 Oct 16 UTC

#GMN:

Xorx is correct, infection is just a status that forces for RA to kill a target with it UNTIL the Bioterrorist dies, then at the EoN 1 random person that has been informed they are infected (meaning minimum of 2nd night after being infected) will die.
rdrivera2005 (3533 D(G))
09 Oct 16 UTC
Confirmed.

And I also didn´t understand how the Jammer will work, as blocking night comunication seems a town role not a mafia one.
MoscowFleet (129 D)
10 Oct 16 UTC
##GM Note

One possible use for the jammer role could be when the mafia know a PR is planning an EON reveal; jamming communications would allow the mafia to kill off the PR without the reveal. There could potentially be other situations as well in which the jammer could benefit the mafia.
