A thought, you could just have the day end be a set time + a random amount of time between zero to six hours (possibly posted in the dead chat before hand to keep the mod free from being blamed of bias).  That way there is no hard 11th hour to plan for, but the end of the day is not hammer based.

In btw.

Experimental it is.

Extensions will be extended to 48hours.

Lynch contingent day end votes will be required during (L/M)YLO situations.

In order to prevent the day from dragging interminably once more than half the players have voted I'm going to end the day if no one changes their vote in a 24-hour period, whether or not the day end vote has been cast.

This may actually work, but for now let's see how day end votes will work.

I'm worried that the day end votes won't solve anything and just make it worse though.  The only reason I was able to pull what I did was because sheep wasn't around at day end to change his votes and no one extended to give him the time. I feel justified in saying that whatever vote you leave on someone within the 24 hr period before the lynch should be the vote that you're willing to go down with; if that is not the case then this is a problem with the instruction noobs are getting rather than scum's responsibility to not take complete advantage of this.  Day end votes therefore just mean that the day switches to a hammer, with the scum coordinating a double strike the instant anyone messes up their lylo day end vote. 

To add to the mess: this also forces a double-jeopardy on scum; not only do they have to avoid seeming to bandwagon their vote, they ALSO have to avoid bandwagoning their day end vote.  And that's just if we use Leaf's ambiguously defined "approve of this day end" vote, (which already should be implicit in your vote going into the last 24 hours).

I know for a fact I would not have vote-flipped if I knew the day might not end for another hour or two, honestly even two minutes was a bit nerve-wracking.  This has the benefit of ONLY affecting that very specific play, the hand-off nature means it won't be able to be utilized for scum hunting, and will not bog down the day except by a max of six hours.  This could easily be implemented for all the days, with the pressure on finishing up before the deadline posted.

ZU: that could work for a 5-person Lylo (assuming we remove the mafia kill as per vengeful rules), but what about a 3-person one?  The scum is forced to be not only the second least scummy person, but the least overall to win.  I think that that might be a bit unfair against whoever is scum, but on the other hand we are trying to weaken scum so...

I don't think you have sufficient experience to qualify for ICing, TBH.

Would you like to IC, Dariush?  I'll even let you Co-IC scum if Deathsword approves that arrangement...

LNCP - Spoilspec or regular?

I'll give you  a hint.  DON'T CLAIM.  That'll get rid of most of your huge blunders in play.
