My assistant Elizabeth is correct: Day Zero had no lynch phase, and it does no go into 'Night Zero'. Day Zero rolls immediately into Day One after eight people have posted in the thread, or twenty-four hours have elapsed.

I made a Day Zero so people who had any big problems or questions could ask them safely without it affecting the actual game once it starts. Think of Day Zero as like, the first three or so hours of Day One - banter, taunting, role-play, etc.

It's experimental, though, definitely. I just thought it'd be nice to allocate some time for people to get acquainted with their accounts before the 'game' part of Mafia begins.

With seven accounts having posted, one more player needs to 'check in' before Day One commences.
