Proposal: Butterknife, Not Bloody Knife!

Timed out 4 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

Adminned at 01 Mar 2017 10:13:12 UTC

If this proposal passes, replace all instances of TIME with the date and the time of midnight. Example “Sunday, 26th, February 2017 00:00:00 UTC”

Add to the “Remedies” bullet list Silver Butterknife and to the section

Silver Bark and Silver Butterknife are Silver; other Remedies are not. During the Doctor’s Rounds if a Villager has the Symptom of Wolf Form and at least one Silver Remedy in their inventory that Villager has has the follow atomic actions preformed by the Doctor:
1. A 10% chance that Lycanthropy and Wolf Form are removed from the Villager.
2. If the Villager had Wolf Form and it was removed in the last action, a separate 20% chance that the Villager gains the symptom Death.
These actions are also preformed if a Villager with Lycanthropy becomes the Taker of a Silver Remedy. A Silver Butterknife is not removed from a Villager’s inventory when used but it can only be used once every 12 hours starting from TIME. Silver Butterknife cannot cause nor cure diseases in any way other than the atomic actions listed in this paragraph.

Change The Market text to

A Villager at the Market may swap two units of the same Remedy in their inventory (other than Well Water) for a single unit of any Remedy other than Silver Butterknife, at any time. A Villager at the Market may also swap out three Silver Bark for one Silver Butterknife at any time.

In the “Spectral Actions” section change “As a daily action, a Dead Villager who is not exhibiting Eternal Torment may move a Remedy from one Villager’s inventory to another Villager’s inventory.” to

As a daily action, a Dead Villager who is not exhibiting Eternal Torment may move a Remedy from one Villager’s inventory to another Villager’s inventory. A Dead Villager may not move a Silver Remedy to a Villager’s inventory if the Villager whose inventory they are moving the Remedy into has the symptom Wolf Form and that latter Villager is also not on The Road.

Running the numbers each time the Doctor does the atomic actions, if the villager had Wolf Form they have a 4% chance of dying. If that’s done 20 times they have an 80% chance of dying.

Note: nice. Allows exchange of bark for knife anywhere at the moment.

Note: Thanks. Changed it to fix that flaw.

Note: also changed it so that someone couldn’t grab knives from the surgery.

Note: Surgery is a perfectly valid place to get silver knife.

The spectral action part of the rule is a little unclear about which villager must be on the road. One interpretation will only forbid you and anyone else who dies on the road from doing it.

Note: I thought that it might be unfair to get 3 knives at once but if everyone is okay with that then I guess I’ll change it back.

Clarified the Spectral actions.

Note: Asking the Doctor to perform particular actions at the stroke of midnight is tricky, particularly when one of those actions can kill a player - what happens if I’m asleep, and if other players take other actions between midnight and me waking up? It seems like this would work okay as part of the Doctor’s Rounds instead.

Note: Changed to that effect.

On an unrelated note, I haven’t been able to test anything so I don’t know exactly what silver bark currently does, but it seems to not cause diseases so far. Since I’m adding a butterknife as a remedy, then it would also have the possibility of being able to cure or cause diseases. Should that be removed from possibility?

That was the last edit I’ll do. The knife can’t cause or cure diseases like a regular remedy, it only affects lycanthropy.
