As I am now the king I am no longer a normal townie so I can't really have a say on whether or not Hammer's rules can be put in place.
Surely you are the only one who can definitively say or not you will adhere to the Guidelines. Here they are again for your benefit.

1.) The King has to wait until at least one person reachs a majority before any executions are ordered. This will make sure that enough talking has gone on and information has been gained. When someone does get a majority of the votes then they are put on the
2.) If someone else then gets enough votes to give them a majority as well, then they are also put on the Royal List of Execution. This should mean that the king has a couple of Town-Approved candidates for a lynching and give him the choice.
3.) Players who have direct (most likely investigative) evidence against them may be placed automatically on the Royal List of Execution., regardless of whether or not they have received over a majority of votes.
4.) Players may be removed from the Royal List of Execution. (by the King) if they have direct (most likely investigative or Masonry) evidence to absolve them, or perhaps even a "Hero" claim and the King believes it (or the King believes said person to be the Hero even without a claim).
5.) If the King feels a particular person is an assassin (but has no investigative evidence against them [or does have investigative evidence but does not wish to reveal such information], and that person is, for whatever reason, not on the Royal List of Execution.) the King may formally announce to the town that s/he is moving that person to The Royal List of Execution., and allow the town to have further discussion (as such a move should obviously create). This allows for the King to have greater autonomy, but makes certain that King will not just randomly execute people without at least some open discussion from the town.
6.) The King has to announce in advance who he is going to execute, so that person can be given a chance to defend himself and reveal anything he has kept hidden so far.
7.) The Workers have nothing to lose but their chains. This should be for the benefit of the Townies and if this system is overthrown then let it be
As you can see this limits the King, but still gives him a choice. I believe that using this everyday will give us the best chance of catching Scum and is needed now we are 2 down. I will keep track of the
Royal List of Execution for you if you want and it will stop what happened yesterday happened again. A king taking things into his own hands just because he felt bored.
As for the two we have lost lets take a look at them.
Tommy - I pointed out that he constantly pointed out how new he was as a defense mechanism and normally that is a small Scum-sign so I thought it was worth a vote. Obviously a few more people voted him which is why Yorkshire executed him ( a bit prematurely I think ) and also he seemed to claim something but Im not sure what it was. He needed to elaborate on that and needed time to defend himself which Yorkshire didn't give him which I think looks a bit suspcisious. The day didn't need to end as we were waiting on posts from Billyman and Happy Axeman.
Steven - Obviously the argument between me and him was the main thing going on in the day yesterday, but as I said I wasn't sure of his guilt. He made some contradictory comments and some weird ones were he seemed to claim as a Vigilante (which might be why the Mafia went after him) which confused me when he denied it. He also said this....
"But to be totally honest, I have a hunch that she is guilty. She acts funny when she grabs my laptop (no jokes please) and reads the board.. she just acts funny.. I think when it all comes down to it, you'll all see that she is guilty.. but I cant prove anything
Perhaps he had hit onto something and had to be silenced.
