also this is pedantic and imo has virtually no impact on game balance but I would argue that the informed townie is somewhat non-normal due to the fact that there's no date given regarding what counts as a recent whitelisting

oh btw if you want I will simulate and photograph a full game of
7 Wonders
and give a short write-up of what is happening in each photo and then you can use that for flavor even though you don't know anything about that game

"compulsive weak loyal vigilante"

classic rock stations should exclusively play "The Boys Are Back in Town". it provides you with useful info vis a vis the boys and their proximity to town

Working 10+ hour days is really not suiting my mafia habits these days.
chickadee you just gotta convince the classes you teach that instead of painting a fun picture of a unicorn ice cream cone that instead you're going to paint a list of reasons why each player in the game is town or scum

I argued recently that the normal guidelines should be shifted to allow for games where everyone is informed as a way to cleanly allow for moderators to give info like whether a game is multiball or that a particular role isn't in the setup. confirming that sort of information isn't in opposition to how normal games should work imo but there should be guidelines for how that sort of info can be disseminated to ensure that everyone in the game is aware of these things.

I mean I would argue that that's every normal game. the number of normal games that can exist is incredibly massive but is basically finite. as long as there's no graylist, the normal queue is really a semi-open queue, and that's fine, but it should be acknowledged as being true.
