In The Quiet Year, communication between players is limited to simulate how hard it is for a 80-people community to actually communicate and articulate. If you wanna share opinions or check with the others before starting projects you can use your action to start a discussion: then every player gets to express their opinion in a single sentence and the game goes on to the next week.
