Wow okay

The most common scenario in which this is useful is any game with a period during which players are not supposed to post. On any other forum architecture, the self-locking ability would normally be used to accomplish this. However, on Discourse, you may either get a mod to lock your topic (which can take time, prevent you from posting [adding that to OP], and can result in you trying to get your topic un-locked but being unable to find a member of the staff that is online, trapping you), or risk players posting and ruining the integrity of a game that may have taken weeks or even months to plan. Both are scary propositions, so for this particular purpose self-locking would be extremely welcome.

Here’s a few examples I could find quickly:

Rule 7 of this post from ChiefDelphi explicitly calls attention to this fact:

> **[FRC Mafia Game 7](https://www.chiefdelphi.com/t/frc-mafia-game-7/354405?u=orangeandblack5)**
>
> Welcome to FRC Mafia Game 7! For this game, we will be playing with the Mad17 setup that will be used in the upcoming Mafia Universe championship. This game will be moderated by your amazing hosts, @ash4fun, @Thequackmaster and @darth\_tabor! ...

Unfortunately, it still ended up happening:

> **[FRC Mafia Game 7](https://www.chiefdelphi.com/t/frc-mafia-game-7/354405/1598?u=orangeandblack5)**
>
> yeah sorry… I’ve been at champs all week… I’m literally dead… @ash4fun

Twice:

> **[FRC Mafia Game 7](https://www.chiefdelphi.com/t/frc-mafia-game-7/354405/1477?u=orangeandblack5)**
>
> Just a single post… that’s all. The mayor of the town of Gellville is… @EricKline! Congratulations, now you got to make an acceptance speech. Btw I told you so town.

While neither of these were game-ruining posts, I have seen some before that have absolutely been just that (been a few years and honestly can’t find them now).

If you want another example I can dig more when I get off work.
