Remove King's ability to abstain

The title says it all. Kings should be leaders that dictate how the voting goes and should show their alignment based on how they handle that, so why should they be able to abstain on voting? They should execute by default and chose if they pardon, but have no option to select neither.

An interesting proposition is that this could count for all players. It’d make it less easy to spot a reaper game for one and people cannot stay passive anymore, but have to actively show their opinions.

Make everyone have to do it. It would be very interesting and allow for more scumreading options in turbo.

But abstains can be scumread too

It’s harder tho

:frowning:

Not even. I’m actually the most comfortable reading abstains

I think abstains are more indicative on every class except King. The King is usually looked at more and abstain can also be a sign of passiveness, the afk feeling.

It also forces more activity in the court and makes trials mean more, because there will be more executions.

That’s more because votes are less indicative on king in general because a scum king doesn’t know his buddy’s.

I strongly oppose this suggestion.
