59: Are you now, or have you ever been... with Andrew

So, the day phase is very much a very sh- short, the shortest of the phases pretty much in practice, where you will place your cards down face up.
A
23:21Andrew Shield-OddsGUEST
Just pretty much your public side of things where you can get resources.
A
23:26Andrew Shield-OddsGUEST
You can play night phase cards during the day, but they can have a negative impact, and that's essentially you using your secret kind of abilities, your hidden team's effects to reveal, like, who you are, but also doing public in a way which others can see and start reducing the whole masquerade, that idea of the hidden world being public.

23:47Andrew Shield-OddsGUEST
And then in the night phase is where you will spend all those resources on your actions, and that is where as a kind of collective hidden team, you'll commit cards towards two different, like, areas of focus.
A
24:03Andrew Shield-OddsGUEST
Usually it's investigating or acting on something happening and spending those resources with control to cause something to happen.
