The inclusion of jester was causing a disproportionately high number of wolf wins due to wolves voting jester as a strategy in order to bring numbers to even. Per discussion in -ops, it was decided that removing jester would be good in order to prevent this (an alternative option being reducing number of wolves so that the gameplay can still happen, but it requires more finesse on the wolves' part in order to utilize).
Features:
- Added var.NO_LYNCH
- Tweaked hurry_up to count not-lynching players
- Makes day end without a lynch if enough players abstain
- Consider pacifists and not-lynching as equal for lynching calculation
(in chk_decision and hurry_up)
- Add "x players have refrained from voting" in !votes
- Added actual nolynch/abstain command, which is a toggle to no_lynch or
not
- Make !voting automatically remove the player from the no-lynchers
- Make !retract remove the player from no-lynchers
- Make rapidfire more rapid by reducing timers and adding in time lord
- Correctly credit someone for a win if they die and THEN /part or /quit
(someone that dies and is /kicked will not get a win, as that usually
means they cheated or something.)
- Break up long messages (roles, player totals) at intelligent points.
- Updated behaviour for listroles(), show_votes(), timeleft()
- Uses !simple settings when those commands are given in PM
- Uses notice if channel is +z and a game is in progress
This very simple fix probably seems redundant or even entirely
pointless, but it actually solves a big design flaw. It does not show
much for freenode, but for other networks (e.g. Esper), where I tweaked
my bot to use ns_ghost instead, it keeps trying to kill off an
(unregistered) nick, without having a password. This effectively causes
spam to the services, and results in an automatic ban.
