Catching up on the thread - come on guys, did we really have an argument about whether the mafia have secrets?
1. There are exactly as many secrets in play as there are players at the start of the game.
2. If two secrets of a single type are used in one night neither of them will be used.
3. These secrets include powers like guards and seers.
4. The way the mafia deals with those powers is by using their secrets to negate them that turn.
100% I would bet that that is the strategic element for the mafia. Here's what's going to happen: as soon as they decisively determine which secret type is a guard, they are going to play that secret type and then kill kime. In the process they will begin playing public seer secrets in order to block the attempts to publicly seer players. These will likely go on the targets they have already chosen to kill that night so that the village can't metagame and not play a secret in order to trick the mafia into just seering someone.
It is the village's job to be organized enough and level-headed enough that we can outlast the mafia's secret monopoly, and to be capable of functioning until we can safely and reliably protect our network head.

With an expected 10 mafia members that means they have access to that many secrets, able to block us for two and a half days of secret use. Maybe we shouldn't use all four in a day, thereby making mafia spend four for our three (or however many we use) if they want to block all abilities.
Didn't ahava state that in the event of more than one secret of a category being played in the same day, the the first secret of a category gets played and any other secrets played from that category are simply voided.

I didn't say that the mafia were waiting until the end of the day to send in their orders.
Do you think you could turn that into a google doc? It'd be easier than downloading multiple versions...
I don't plan on changing things over to Google Docs since there are some nice formatting features in Excel that I like that are incompatible with Google's spreadsheet format. Besides, given the frequency at which I update the spreadsheet, you won't gain anything from having it in online format. It's a free service, so you'll have to take what is offered. If you want something done the way you want it, best be doing it yourself...

Well with a captain at the helm, people jumping the gun may now look a little suspicious.
This is assuming as much gets told in the narration. I realize I'm stating the obvious. :P
I thought the names of secret users showed up in the narration.
They have been. So Unless things change, they are gonna be under scrutiny if they are weren't under the cap'n's orders.

Ding dong ding dong.
Oh, that’s the new chime that we installed within the hall to let you all know when things have come to a conclusion for the day. I am not going to be joining you in the hall today, because to be honest, some of you seem to have not been able to find the showers. There are showers, you know. They’re in the back bathrooms. There is even soap that’s been provided.
Anyway. To the points of today. You were very talkative, and quite busy weren’t you? And the results on my desk certainly do show that. So there was a bit of a crazy person amongst you, but you all took care of that in a hurry. Can’t have too much crazy in there. But that’s alright, Retaba has been removed.
Now, it seems like somebody took objection to people having friends. Now they were not supposed to, but they did find a way to sneak past our screening processes and come in with a buddy. But you took care of that on your own. Or somebody did. Now there’s only one left out of that pair. Well done.
Sadly, for you lot, the Producers pets still managed to get through all of their removal requests today. Our members of Security are currently escorting them out of the premises. You shouldn’t worry though, there is still plenty of time. Now, we get to the enjoyable part. Ah yes, your secrets.
I have had several passed up to me today, and I must say I am pleased with what I have.
Diorinix has provided us with the secret of “I Killed Jimmy Hoffa”, and it seems as though this secrets aim was true. He chose to point this Criminal Act towards Exarch. Security will be escorting the colluder from the hall now. As for the other Secrets, Megafrost attempted to block the activities of another one of your compatriots with the Secret Agenda secret "I have continuous bouts of explosive diarrhea. Every episode causes a zombie to be raised someplace in the world to hunt for brains", but that person was not attempting to do anything, so that secret is wasted. Finally, sportzboyjtw has decided that it is in your best interests to know that his secret, “I am a tautology” seemed best to apply it to Infidel
Yes. Looking at my notes, that seems to be the sum of it all for the day.
Get some sleep, and we’ll be back live tomorrow.
The Removed
Retaba – Removed by the group Ketbra – BFF #1 – Pushed out a window Obifett – Removed by Producers’ pact
Greenbarons – Removed by producers’ pact
Egos – Removed by producer’s pact Exarch – Treated like Jimmy Hoffa

poop. I was hoping it'd translate easily using their document converter. I'm no good at spreadsheets, sadly... I tried to get a copy of jdark's to work when I ran the logic phalla and just broke the shit out of it instead.
-Langly signs up as "I Needed A Name To Play", an obvious imitation of my name
-Infidel possessed Langly's secret, which Langly accidentally reveals
-INANTP's submitted secret is then used to verify Infidel as village.
Welly welly welly, it appears whichever of us was supposed to have revealed their personal quirk has forgotten to do so, unless of course that is their personal quirk. A secret we still don't the function of. I believe we have our target for today.
