Two additions to Trials.

Postby SilverCruz » Fri Feb 10, 2017 9:10 pm

1 - State one's role next to their name, for example 6. William Phips (BillyUsername) (Bodyguard)
2 - Add a panel to give a reasoning for your decision, whether you vote Innocent or Guilty

For an example (Based on a report I just had, names changed to protect those involved), let's say the Godfather gets lynched and his will says "Mafioso - JohnnyBonnie. Framer - Hank Grill". JohnnyBonnie really is the Mafioso, but he quit Day 1 so he's been dead since the game started, and Hank Grill is actually the Doctor, not the Framer. Since the only accurate information in the Will is useless, it's not really gamethrowing and as such can be safely called Innocent since the other part is a flat out lie. That being said, it'd be nice to be able to add a note of "Fake Gamethrowing, Mafioso was already dead and accused Framer was actually Doctor." just to make it perfectly concise why it was called Innocent.

Probably not useful, ultimately, but I'm sure it'd make some people feel better as long as they aren't imposed to fill it out.

Also, is "Leaving" still supposed to be there? I ask since it's not in the client, wondering if it was removed from the client and isn't intended to be in the trials anymore.

Edit - Added Poll.

I know what I'm doing, generally, but I have no grace at all when things start to spin out of control.

I'd like to address the latter part, but I wouldn't know the first thing about that.

1. You can mousehover the names in the chat to see their roles or look at the filters tab. So this is already implemented.
2. This was often suggested, but won't be added due to this could bias the juror, which is something to prevent.

Sometimes that doesn't work, though.
Bias the juror how? I don't get it.

Bias by giving them the opinions of others, which influences the vote. Hence why the second one won't be implemented.

Why can't it only be visible to judges/mods then?
