few issues here, and i’ll take the blame but they were still issues for me.
you didn’t link those rules or provide any reminder of them in day 1 of the relevant games
i had the rule thread unpinned from my end (did this when there were still less mafia threads visible on the frontpage and it took up a slot and was annoying me) and i had trouble finding it when it was pinned
there’s just no verification that everybody in the game has committed those rules in that thread in particular to memory
there is literally nothing explicit in the rules about closing or opening threads, nor can i find anything about end of day or hammer with respect to this rule
i personally had the vague recollection that you never wanted threads closed by anybody other than the host, and it was probably due to reading that state of mafia thread but then mostly forgetting about it.
it is understandable to me that klaze missed it though. my only feedback here is: when in doubt, reiterate. you could’ve reiterated the closing thing in the OP, or after klaze closed the thread on day 1, or after klaze closed the thread on day 2. i feel like you may have interpreted it as klaze blatantly disregarding your wishes, but i’m pretty sure he just was never aware.
This is actual horseshit. I provided plenty of rules feedback, none of which ever got made into clear rules (specifically, I provided feedback about playing to wincon and posting after EoD)
unfortunately even though its probably the hardest path im still pretty sure the whole thing should be configurable instead of settling on one strict interpretation
i forgot how we talked about laying out the bot but i would just add a config object (ex: { lock_on_hammer: true; lock_on_eod: true; }) where the days are stored and read from it or the bot defaults if something isnt specified
