I'm considering making this a short night game. "Night" would only last 1 hour (12am to 1am), and then day would begin again at 1am, with or without actions having processed. The firefighter and arsonists have 9 hours to submit their actions after night starts (so, due at 9am server).

This means day may start without a death, and a death reveal may happen later during the day. Example

So, timeline:

12:00:59am - Day ends, lynch is revealed
12:01am to 1:00am - Night (no posting)
1:01am - Day begins, people can post
9:00:59am - Night action deadline
9:01ish - Death reveal, if any
Repeat

For/against? It mainly lets people post at times of day you usually wouldn't be able to post at in a turbo, but maintains some silence for "night" without having real nighttalk.

9 hours to submit is negotiable, I just blatantly stole it from the game I linked for the example.
Players will probably spend a large portion of the phase waiting for the death reveal.
It's like you get more play time vs waiting time, but you actually lose play time for after the death reveal. (?)

I don't mind if you try it just to see how it goes tbh.
