Was going to be a cult win for sure, but they kept trying to cult the exec and not the vet.

Was this a Judge/Crier save, perchance?

No, 3 Mafia GF support random, 8 town TG, TI, TI, Tpro, Tpro, TK, TPow, TRan, 1 Any Random only neut/town non killing, NK, NBenign, NRandom

Cult was the NRandom, was attempting to get the last town who was vet, so for some reason they tried to convert the exec who already won. On day 9 a hidden vote came up 2 to 2 and it crashed.

Town chat was frozen but death chat was active... I afked until SC2 crashed and uploaded the full replay. Something on the tie vote mechanic failed.

Executioner was night immune? Cult can't conver night immune as i know... (i didn't played this game for a while)

Also, blizzard will crash your game if you're online for 9 hours, it was made to avoid servers overload.
And it was proably a hacker, happened once for me, he also hacked votes to "-1, -2, -3, -4, -5..." then game froze.

I left, didn't know what one of my replays has this event.

Sometimes the game crashes instead of the tiebreaker happening. It's a bug that we have no clue how to fix. I am sorry for what happened but ur best bet is to make sure the stalemate tiebreaker never occurs.

I think that's an admin you saw, admins have the power to change a player's voting power.

even if it was possible (it's not) no admin would change a player's voting power. truly sickening that u would say that

Game had no admins. I'm 100% sure that was a hacker.

Anyway I've seen stranger things happen in this game, many are simply unsolvable without completely rewriting the game code. This is one of them. The only thing I can suggest to prevent situations like this one from occurring in the future is to not lead the game into a stalemate. And never run a setup that has both a Judge and a Crier, they tend to freeze a lot.

I think spamming can also have that effect but I'm not 100% sure.

One other thing is, the game freezes after day 20 or some other obscene date like that.
