I'm gonna need to buy a smartphone just to keep up with these games while I'm at work.

I'm currently focused on the God Emperor question. I understand his position of not wanting to reveal his role on Day 1, but at the same time, he's almost guaranteed to be a mafia target very soon, if not tonight. So it doesn't seem like there's anything to lose by revealing now before it's too late (unless, of course, he's scum). Having said that, if he is indeed a pro-town role, I could also see how it might be preferable to keep his role secret, so that the mafia do not know what role they have eliminated. Perhaps a private reveal to someone he trusts would be best?
