Blitz Mafia - Debrief

[Kaden]

It is somewhat unfortunate that days tend to end before those in other time zones get a chance to log on, but that's not something I have control over.

You actually do have control over it. You could simply choose to say that a day will last a minimum of X hours after a majority has been reached. To give someone a chance to defend themselves or... say anything, really.

In the context of the game, no it doesn't necessarily make sense that things would continue like normal once people had decided to lynch someone, but it actually makes less sense that the chosen person would just sit there and take it without having an opportunity to say anything.

EDIT: I understand that it was a conscious choice to allow the "bum rush" to be a valid strategy, but my question is why choose to keep that in the game over allowing a day to run its course? While a bum rush does, indeed, provide information, forcing a day, and by proxy, the voting conversations to drag out also allows information to be provided. To me, both are comparable, but one is influenced by factors completely removed from the game while the other is not.
