Er. Well maybe not. There are mechanisms that cause a player to require more votes.

Battle Phase

The Battle Phase is an administrative phase, in which P-S resolves all submitted actions for that phase.
It is resolved after the day phase but before lynch resolution.

The battle phase is resolved as follows:
1. Path-Shaper closes the Bazaar.
2. Path-Shaper resolves all submitted battle phase provisional actions in the following order: Guard - Heal - Find - Other - Battle - Assassination - Recruit.
3. Path-Shaper updates the game thread status in a seperate post and announces any player deaths and the start of the Dusk phase, then and only then he sends PMs to players concerning Retainer destruction.
4. Players resolve any Battle actions open to them from abilities, titles, items, role PMs and retainers, limited by the amount of actions they can take per phase, that do not target other players.
5. Players remove all goods from the Bazaar and update their storage in a seperate post, naming the phase.

I was about to say I lost that at the dough. But that's "kneading dough"

Our allies {big eye} need water?

If you weren't so subtle with your messages maybe I could've helped you Karo (at an exorbant price) but it's too late now!

Come now you don't really believe that Sorrit worships Father Sun do you?

The Bazaar rules

A player can only trade on the bazaar during the Day Phase.


Day ends when a player is lynched.

I would like a ruling from PS on whether that water that was just sold on the market now is legal. I've been led to understand that the bazaar is day only, so unless Sorrit isn't lynched, that sale shouldn't go through?

I have 45 minutes before my other timesink (she'll kill me if she ever reads that) arrives. That's going to never be enough to resolve up to Dusk (lynch phase). So I am afraid I am going to have to leave you all until the morrow, which is... 13 hours from now? Crap, that's a lot.

Well, in that time, can you all please provide me with a new:


* Item & Retainer PM, with the Destruction Queue & Battle action queue filled in?
* Storage PM (for battle phase 7);

In addition:

2 requests.

1. Can everyone please comment on their current strategy in the comment section, if you have a minute or so to spare? There's awfully little info there.
2. If you have things that particularly bug you about the game, it's requirements/rules/set-up/ability strength and the way it plays out (and perhaps, if you have a solution - several have been forthcoming already, massive thanks, sirs and ladies), do say. Originally, this was intended as a true kick-off but I guess it's better to treat it as a bèta after all, then modify things one more time, and come up with a finalized, cleaned-up, crystal clear version to ensure I can run more of these games without ending up in a mental ward or alienating players.
Only someone with this much power could make this many frittatas without breaking any eggs.

We have enough votes for a lynch. That means Day is ended, and the battle phase has started, officially. Which means in turn that the bazaar is closed.

For thread, that's all that matters (not that I am behind with resolutions).
