The deadlines are a detriment to this game right now. Only 1/2 the people are participating and the deadlines are allowing it to continue. Just my opinion. Game is good otherwise.

So since we only had 5 votes shall we wait until we reach the limit of 6?

Do what you guys want. I would just propose that after this day phase, we eliminate time limits b/c we'll be down to 9.

Not sure how much action there would have been over the weekend anyway, but a deadline will limit activity. Double edged sword though. Sometimes no deadline leads to long, boring days.

Right, well the limit is supposed to prevent that. I'm not saying there was going to be activity over the weekend, esp with the hurricane affecting a lot of LGP members. I just think it is being taken advantage of right now. Of the 11 people, 5 or 6 are doing drive-by posting and saying 1 thing then disappearing until the time limit is reached.

We are down to few enough people that I don't think it's necessary unless we get into a situation where no one is talking.

So deadline is off now? I think you should stick with deadline you set, since you did that earlier. Then if you want to eliminate deadlines for later votes, that would be good. Just my two cents though.

I know it's night and not usually a good time for talking, but want to get some thoughts out there anyway. Not sure how much I'll be around tomorrow.

Troy was first vote on Kraftster.
SDD was not the recruit, but could still be the red leader and come back as blue if seen.
Most likely two more reds out there - the leader and the other mason.

Troy's vote for Kraftster could be explained due to Kraftster voting for Troy.

So the Reds had a seer (EPP), a recruit (Kraft), and now a town mason after Columbia was axed.

They have a leader still out there, and most likely a vig and an angel. I think one of Rylan or LITT or both are RPs since the time it has taken to get the RP votes in has taken awhile and neither has been around much.

My point is that Troy wouldn't likely vote for kraftster first if they were both red.

I know it means nothing, but I'm blue. I've been asking to lose the deadline at this point b/c I feel like the reds left are using the deadline to limit their participation.

IE, Rylan, ps87, Zaro

I think at least 1 or 2 of them are bad.
