Re: [werewolf] Turn numbering & such

[Lee Griffin <leegriffin@gmail.com>]

All valid points.  The only thing I'm thinking about is if the counter
reset after each turn, it may become more difficult for proper
refrencing of prior events.
Example:  Say I'm a mason.  It's turn 4.  I have to deal with c04.003,
m04.010 and whatever else is thrown out.  After awhile, the "prefix"
letter will be lost to the eyes.  By keeping a running tally of all
messages sent, it just seems easier (IMO).

Just to clarify, I'm not against the letter prefix, just the message
count reset each turn.
