prod people who are just voting to stay in the game, unless they have a good reason to be inactive

Disallow safety voting. Make it so that on vote day, a given person can vote only once, and cannot change their vote. When the day phase starts everybody piles in with their safety and then as the day goes on, has absolutely no reason to come back and see what has or hasn't happened, because they've made their safety against getting a phantom.

I've also considered what might be the ramifications of lynch voting that happens only via PM to the host. They can claim to have voted for whoever they want in the thread, but their official vote has been sent to the host, could also be an interesting twist, which while not related to this problem might still be interesting.
