That was a pretty huge mistake
I’ll say ‘growing pains’ but that doesn’t devalue the frustrations caused by the interaction

this game is coming right after I got converted N1 and all 3 cult were killed N3 by the way
D1 being 12 hours or 8 hours was best imo
Shorter but not overwhelmingly so
I don’t think it’d bother me on it’s own it’s just a few other things on top of that but it’s not the end of the world

Yeah the king election was functionally D1, and twelve hours into it at that. It felt very arbitrary and ended up having huge mechanical impact on the game

Which just feels bad
I think a happy medium exists where d1 is simultaneously not obnoxiously long and also doesn’t cause a lot of problems
but also short d1 with king election d2 is kinda scuffed so maybe d1 length is decided alongside if starting king or no starting king

Feels like losing at Candyland rather than losing at poker or whatever
because 24 hours d1 → king election d2 works

I feel like starting king would be more fun than having to randomly vote someone for it but you could just have it where everyone has their role randed, and then you rand who starts as king and go from there
just rand who’s king first
Id say 12h d1 as said
24h is jst half a day which is like. still a tonnn of time to discuss and in TOL it cant really serve that purpose

yes
starting king is more fun
that’s the impression I get
I think no starting king games can be fun
it just needs to be better optimized

15 minutes d1 is really trolly
also probably unoptimal
Starting king is fun because there essentially can’t be a meta around them and they’re unsolveable off of N1 actions if that makes sense
Make it 14 minutes instead.

it also works better to make them evil since you can just have less evils on the side since haha funny role rand is gone
