I would somewhat advocate for both only revealing the qt vote at the deadline, and the first candidate to reach the tie to be lynched for one reason - both of these decrease the importance of the last minute voting. If everything of importance happens in the two hours before the deadline, it makes the game concentrate even more than usual in those hours which is not good for those in unusual timezones, those who might be at work during the deadline, or those who might already be asleep by then. The deadline is never perfect for everybody, so I would try making being around it rather
less than
more important if I have options.
But I guess it depends. Personally I'm out of work until the end of the month at least so I have nothing else to do than to stay awake all night and play werewolf
How are the US/Canada 'downers feeling about the deadline?
