bler144: Also, anything anybody else wants to add before we close the day.

bler144: Hmmm...that isn't how I understood the brig either. Curious.

PoppyAppletree: The gameplay is mostly normal, however I have added a brig mechanic to fit the theme of the game, whereby a player is thrown into the Brig. Brigging a player is a non-lethal action, allowing players to make consensus actions which are weaker than lynches. Brigging a player does not end the day, and multiple brig/unbrig actions may be taken in the course of a day phase. A player may be thrown in the brig if a majority of players vote to brig them. A player in the Brig may be released if a majority of players vote to unbrig them. Ties will not resolve in an action until the tie is broken. Players in the brig cannot vote on lynch or brig actions, but may otherwise continue to make arguments. Additionally, brigged players cannot use any role abilities (including faction kills) they may have, and Cylon players in the Brig may not talk to other Cylon players. However, players in the Brig are not immune to the effects of abilities or to lynches. Only one player can be in the Brig at once. If there are below five players, it will no longer possible to brig other players. If the Crew end the day with the last Cylon in the Brig (thereby preventing further nightkills), this will count as all threats being eliminated.

trentonlf: How's work and your stress doing?

PoppyAppletree: Relevant sections underlined. Joe's summation is accurate - someone gets out of the Brig by being released by a vote or replaced by another person. And I won't be going to sleep just yet, but I am away with my head in a book.

bler144: Sorry, it wasn't a slam.

PoppyAppletree: but while his vote contributed to setting him over the line for the Brig,

JoeSapphire: I love yogsloth!

I feel like my big sister's cool friend has rocked up out of the blue at 11 at night, raided the cupboards, started making toast, offered me some and called me 'champ'.

bler144: Mmm...lower today I guess, but that's because apparently everyone was procrastinating so no one asked me about the things that are on fire.

Most of them are still on fire. Will have to work some this weekend - probably Sunday. Too tired to be effective atm.

How are things with you and your fam?

bler144: But I've learned so much since then!

trentonlf: The family is doing good, my daughter is feeling great and not having any issues. I'm probably more worried than she is. I'm not stressing over it per se by pacing the room back and forth or wringing my hands, but I think it's rolling around in the back of my mind as I have been having trouble sleeping and I am a whole lot more forgetful here these past two weeks than I've ever been.Nothing I can do about it till the baby is born and then they can really test to see if there's any cancer left or not, so until late October to early November I will just have to take it day to day.

yogsloth: btw, this is the best thing I've seen in approximately forever.

Thanks for sucking me down this YouTube rathole, I'll see you all in about a week when hunger finally drives me away from clicking "Up Next"

JoeSapphire: AH! So I probably should have been aware of this already - but unbrigging someone is not as simple as one person stepping of their wagon! Unbrigging is difficult...

HM...

tricky. He's in there now until we vote to unbrig him or replace him. So if we lynch today and there's a nightkill then tomorrow will be a Five-Voter-Lunch. (FVL)

WHICH NOW I'm afraid of the brig again. Let's keep an eye on this situation, sorry Trent I should have listened to you WHY IN ALL HELLS DID WE TRUST YOGSLOTH THE CHILD OF FIRE???

PoppyAppletree: Wasn't taken as such. The Brig mechanic hadn't been used yet, so it's a good time to refresh people on the rules. As a quirk, ZFR's vote was erased from the lynch when he was brigged (which I amended), but while his vote contributed to setting him over the line for the Brig, it would technically be erased once he was in there. If players were brigged and unbrigged as their total brig votes change it would be harder to manage, and ZFR would be unbrigged as soon as he'd been brigged.

SirPrimalform: But didn't the line move at the same time? The requirement became 6, so he still have 6 votes. If the day had an odd number of living players then the vote line wouldn't move.

yogsloth: Fair enough.

Also funny to be back in the land where people are concerned about hammering - as if that's a bad thing in a Day phase that lasts for weeks.

@cristi

Hey Mrs. Columbo, where ya at?

PoppyAppletree: You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.
