Votes in Chat

I think it would be a good addition to have the system say that the player voted in chat. Perhaps the text could be in a different color so that it would stand out.

It could be like: [Player1 has voted Player2] – When a player votes another player [Player1 has voted ] - When a player unvotes. I said it this way because I think it would be easier on Lucid

Upside: - This would make it more noticeable when people vote. - It would be very valuable when back-reading in lylo's because you can see exactly when everyone voted and who. - And it would be a nice addition for spectating games because you can't actually tell who was voted and at what time when you spectate.

Downside: - This could spam the chat box when someone is silenced or if someone is trolling.

However, I think that most users would use this for its intended purpose and not spam. When a player is silenced, town can ask him to stop spamming once it becomes apparent that he is silenced. Trolls...will be trolls and they spam already so this wont actually add much.

Tell me what you think, I don't think this would require much coding.

You should share this with me, Effulgence.

Also, I can sort of see what you mean about this hurting mafia a bit, but most arguments that are made over who voted first aren't ever challenged. Usually players have a pretty good idea of the order of votes. I don't think this would make much of a difference. I could be wrong though.

Its still no reason not to implement it into spectating games though.

Saying "removal of c/p favored mafia" is like saying "removal of steroids from baseball sluggers favored pitchers."

while at it, add time stamps to the chat for all things

The windows is cramped already, timestamps would make it worse
