    I thought the original purpose (at least in the mod) was to stop people from communicating to other people in the game. Then we had that annoying vote spam, and if you were really clever, you could communicate to the blackmailed person by asking them questions with answers corresponding to how they voted.

    I didn't like that in the narrator, so I made it so you also couldn't vote, not realizing how OP that was. It did solve the communication problem though.

    So the next solution was to make them be able to vote, not talk, and have it just be hidden.

    Looking for actual commentary though, and I think I've demonstrated that my current proposed solution is the best one with the problems mentioned.
    I feel like you should be limiting the amount of times they can vote. This stops spam votes but still gives blackmailed target input in the daily discussion. Default of 4 seems about right IMO.

    EDIT: This also has the effect of punishing town for being too passive about who to lynch.

    I'm thinking of changing the way Blackmailer is implemented here on Narrator. Currently it stops them from voting, and from talking. I did this because I didn't want any funky sort of communicating via votes, kind of how it is on the mod. (AKA spam voting)

    However, this runs into the problem that mafia effectively remove a town vote from them and that's hella powerful.

    The change I'm thinking of is to allow blackmailed people to vote, but it won't show up anywhere. Like votes to lynch won't change. It won't show when bmed people make votes. Etc.

    Thoughts?
    This sounds really janky. I don't know if I approve. BMer is one of those inherently flawed roles, where you can't change it too much or it will lose it's whole purpose.
