Just looking at this, I feel like someone is going to have some crazy ability that lets them kill or poison an entire room of people.
I wouldn't go that far, but I wouldn't be shocked if there's some scum ability where they can fuck with someone in the same room as them, or maybe a serial killer with that as a limitation.
To be fair, we had a game in review where someone could set a bomb to kill a whole room (design has been abandoned I believe). Clearly if the map matters it could be anything from that all the way down to some basic ass role like roleblocker can only interact with someone in their room. Trying to guess at that won't get us anywhere.
Didn't grab the quote but
Faddy , I think taking stock at what Fran does and does not care about isn't going to lead to a good road. Whether the map matters or not, he would have had to report it to us along with vote counts to keep up the illusion, or lack thereof. Forgetting about the counter is also hard to judge this early since, if real, it would have started in a default state anyway so nothing would have happened to make him think about it.
It's also Fran so what he does and doesn't remember can be arbitrary.
