@Schizzy: I TAKE YOUR ADVICE!

Although I should have probably taken it sooner. I only have one semester left. >.<

@The Schizz: Might as well. I have no idea what the hell I want to do with my life. I feel screwed. :S

OH! And I guess the medic is getting a buff. Alright, I guess. I never really felt the medic's presence so I guess an upgrade is overdue.

@War_Penguin Actually the medic role has made a few valuable saves in the past. Actually one of the biggest blunders in SK history came from when an execution vote was made between the killer and a person previously saved by the medic. The vote was tied because people are forgetful and this was before a serious set of rules was established so the vote was given to the last victim. The person saved by the medic who couldn't be the killer was executed and the killer was executed several rounds later, almost wining the game, two rounds from the end.

In regards to the rule changes I'm concerned about the amount of wait time that giving the medic a question would since it is no longer just three names that need to be received and more people will need to be contacted. This includes the fact that if the GM doesn't know the anwser to the question and the victim isn't responding we could be held up on that. That would mean additional rules and timelines would need to be put in place for this rule. However if those can be established I'll be willing to give it a one round test.

The second request I'm currently asking other senior members about as I'm certain that a decision about that was made in a previous round but I can't remember the ruling.

A lot happens when I sleep it seems, guess I should become nocturnal >.>

@skye: Being a new member I don't expect my opinion to be taken as highly as the regular members but I think the first option would work well.

@Diablo: Steak would post at least acknowledging he was the one who was killed, and Pm0n3y would confirm he was the killer, or Pm0n3y simply confirms Steak was the killer, and was killed. Then the new round begins.

@War_Penguin Neo's the offical record keeper. I maintain the logic of SK and look for problems with rule changes and roles that are to be added.

@Skye Don't jump the gun and include anything that hasn't been approved if Steak does get announced as dead. Talks of a different method for making the medic more useful are being discussed that are much less Spy like and don't risk a potential major shift in wait times during the first half of the round.

@element: Well, we can have more than one scribe. Or you can be the rule holder or something. Either way, you deserve a title of some sort for your knowledge rule maintaining!

@Skye Currently the position stands that giving the medic questions to ask isn't the way to go. It's not the medics style of play. The method which no one has any major problems with is making the amount of medic saves proportional to the number of people alive. This would be done with by dividing the number of people left alive by 5 and rounding down. Therefore if there's 25+ people left alive the medic get's to choose 5 people to save. 20-24 people get's 4 saves. 15-19 people give them 3 saves. 10-14 people get's them 2 saves. >10 people get's them one save. The Medic submits all the saves at once and if the killer picks a name on the list then that person is saved. However, the medic can only save one person per round so that if the killer chooses someone else on the submitted list that person still dies.

It was also decided before that if you are saved by the medic it should be announced that that person was saved. It was kind of like a reward that you won't be targeted for an execution if the medic managed to save you from getting killed.

@element: while youre having your little meeting can you also ask about the 2 arbiters, a possible randomizer that switches the surviving roles mid round, powering down the spy...

basically, what do i have liberties with?
