Proposal: No pain, no gain.

Self-killed. Adminned by Rodney.

Add a new action to the Street Actions list:

Stab in Sleep(specifying another Assassin as the Victim): If the Assassin is at the Tavern, and the Victim has no Position, the Assassin Kills the Victim.

While it would be pretty cool and Assassin-y (Assassinine?) to hide out of town until your prey reveals itself, it’s really going to be obnoxious if your Target isn’t even on the map. The threat alone of being near the Tavern should flush your prey into entering the town.

I foresee situations where this action is abused.

against Every dynasty has a few players who don’t bother doing anything much; an Assassin who happens to draw one as a target shouldn’t be rewarded for this.

If my target is not in the Town, and chooses not to enter, I currently have literally no way whatsoever to score points. I can’t even get a new target.

A player should not arbitrarily be able to harm another player’s chances of winning simply by doing nothing.

against semiper Kevan, too random. The problem is important, though.

Perhaps there could be a Street Action that gives you a new Target if yours doesn’t have a Position, with a penalty if they actually do have one?

[Rodney] Sure, this needs a fix, but this is an easy two points for anyone who draws a lazy target - the rest of us will have to spend days or weeks tracking down our active targets to get the same reward.

against Self-kill. There’s better options up the queue.
