They could potentially show up and be even scummier. Or they could catch the townslip NK15 made but we all missed. Also they could wind up getting murdered (or in this case nominated to fight) without getting to post even once, which isn't fun for anyone.
Maybe the real Mafia was the friends we made along the way

The game is stalling because there are some complacent people who haven't expressed a single read, or the absence of reads other than null. Scum are probably waiting for someone to vote me to E-1 so that Not Mafia can lolhammer and produce a cheap mislim.
Well, this situation again...
So... can someone tell me why they are not voting jjh? Or why jjh is supposed to be town?

Now, to something else, yes, people should reveal whom they send in as a contestant. I'll probably select an old man in a wheelchair because I am probably a better nightkill then the alternative.

Galron seems like a towny thoughtstreamer

Enchant is null but is promising

also, please don't reveal your fight choices as that ruins the spirit of the game

For what it's worth, NK15, I think you have no idea how to effectively scumhunt, and this is the exact situation you had going for you with your tunnel on the fire/pooky hydra in RC's latest upick. That is to say, I think you are town here

I am looking forward to you tunneling on me all game and everyone ignoring you

Revealing your fight choices removes the fight mechanic and turns it into a "vote on who you want NKed" mechanic and I am not up for that as it's not what I signed up for

It may be mechanically optimal but it's not fun or in the spirit of things

Although actually I'll shut this one down with logic

There is counterplay to declaring your fighters. The rules do not indicate that the winner of a fight is revealed, only that the loser dies. Therefore scum could put themselves in the fight against a town member and submit the fighter declared by someone who is more widely townread etc

Yeah there's just no counterplay I guess

I thought there was something there with regard to people being confirmed and shit but there just isn't

However it would totally suck


What the game really needs is a Fight Adjudication and Referee Team that solves the disputes as an independent third party

Because it's something i will do if happens.

well, that's the mechanical reason why, the true reason why is that it would ruin the Superfight aspect of the game
