*What is the point of night posting if it is not allowed to be relevant to games?
This one's to have fun. It's a circus, surely the circus can be fun.
*Considering the quasi-promise that the games will be connected, how exactly is a rule against commenting on games one is not alive in supposed to work?
OK: You can comment on anything that affects the game you are in. If someone from another game claims to have investigated you, the investigation affected
your game, and you can comment on that fact. They can claim to have investigated you, because the power to investigate came from
their game. In this way, if there is a cross-game power, it affects both games and players from both games can comment.
Let's imagine a player from a game I'm not in starts killing people in my game. What am I meant to do?
In this hypothetical situation, Serial Killer A from game 42 has a cross-game night kill. For some reason he decides to kill someone in game 12; the kill would be announced as cross-game. The players in game 12 don't have any cross-game powers, but because the power crossed into their game, they can start accusing people from other games of having a cross-game night kill.
If it affects anyone in my game it affects me. Do you share that view?
Mostly.
So in other words people can perform actions in my game but I'm not allowed to respond in any way?
Only if it affected your game.
You may not play in another game without GM permission. The actual definition of play is up to the mod's discretion.
Play includes role powers, day votes, and discussion of anything that relates to your game. If a power is cross-game, you have permission to use that power in other games.
I'll discuss with Flabort before answering further, but it isn't something you should worry about.
Pretty sure you were on the right track; his questions are valid, your answers make sense, but definitively, you can discuss only games you are active in, but if it affects your game, than it's part of the game and therefore valid for discussion.
Okay, look: Nobody can screw you in a way you can't retaliate, or that someone on your team can't retaliate against.
This is very true. I don't have any exceptions to this in my plans, and if such an exception were included, it would require me to extend my plans and formulas to include over 25 players.
I knew I forgot something in the OP. I will update it with this information.
