I like the ability to strip mafia of a power; it's annoying to give them a roleblocker but at least we know what it is, where it might go, and if it's given to town we can leash it hopefully.
Have some other thoughts about setup (I like how we don't die via lovers) and wonder if this will pan out better than some dance games without self-survival being a factor.- Color Orange

Also preferably of town alignment because I don't need to be pocketed in a PT that would not be fun.- Color Blue

I don't think that's how a delayer works.In post 22, Color Orange wrote:I feel like I'd rather leave a town unpaired because even if delayer is anti-town, I'd rather have it in town's hands. I think a good strategy might be to never use it until 2 scum are dead?
I also think it'd be more informative & exciting for us to eliminate the unpaired player.
I do like the way you think about this and think it's more likely to come from town.- Color Blue

It looks like the delayer has to be used one night after.In post 22, Color Orange wrote:I feel like I'd rather leave a town unpaired because even if delayer is anti-town, I'd rather have it in town's hands. I think a good strategy might be to never use it until 2 scum are dead?- Color Green

If not used by the end of D1, it never gets used.In post 22, Color Orange wrote:I feel like I'd rather leave a town unpaired because even if delayer is anti-town, I'd rather have it in town's hands. I think a good strategy might be to never use it until 2 scum are dead?- Pentagon Shape

It's weird playing a game with no RVS...
Since being unpaired doesn't mean automatic death in this game, I can volunteer to be the lone shape. In this scenario, I'll just keep the Delay holstered so it won't be an issue going forward. I'd prefer to be paired of course, but I think this is the easiest way to deal with this situation and make it a non-issue.- Color Orange

Ah, it’s a permanent effect on a pair. Yeah I’d prefer to not see it get used in that case because I presume that won’t be able to affect the NK.In post 32, Heart Shape wrote:

I have small pings from this post. It's a very... meh question.In post 34, Pentagon Shape wrote:

And this one as well, perhaps a bit more. Star, why make this sort of post to volunteer if you're going to undercut it immediately with a preference? It comes across a bit LAMIST-y to me.In post 37, Star Shape wrote:It's weird playing a game with no RVS...

...whatever Power is left out receives a delayed roleblocker in lieu of their actual power. Thus, we know what power one person has.In post 39, Color Red wrote:

Roleblocker isn't quite what the role is, but it's delaying someone temporarily from using role.In post 1, penguin_alien wrote:Game-specific rules and information:
* One Power will be left unpaired at the beginning of Phase Two. This player's Power will be converted into a limited one-time use of a Delayer Implementation. They will choose a Pair before the end of Phase Two whose Power implementation will be Delayed upon submission by one Night for the rest of the game (actions submitted on Night X will resolve on Night X+1 but will still be potentially impacted only by actions made by others on Night X). This will be done via private communication with the mod. If they are eliminated Day One or choose not to use their Power, no Pair will be Delayed.- Arrow Shape
