I come bearing nuggets of wisdom!Lots of questions asking the benefits of #VISIT [Occupation]. I edited Post#1 (bold, underlined) to make things just a little clearer, without giving anything away:
Post#1
Each Night phase, each player must lock in their plans for the following Day phase, be it #VISIT [Occupation], #OPEN for business, or #RESEARCH. Of the 20 Occupations, only 10 may #OPEN for business (or in other words, only 10 Occupations may be #VISITED).
| Mailman | ↔ Post office |
| Forensic Investigator | ↔ Morgue |
| Café Owner | ↔ Café |
| Scientist | ↔ Museum |
| Radio DJ | ↔ Broadcasting station |
| Life Coach | ↔ Consultancy |
| Librarian | ↔ Library |
| Yoga Instructor | ↔ Yoga studio |
| Doctor | ↔ Hospital |
| Cinema Manager | ↔ Cinema |

#VISITING Occupations yields certain benefits
, namely acquisition of knowledge specific to that Location, or benefitting from a service unique to that Location. The Owner would benefit too - it may be an anarchic society, but it's still a capitalistic anarchic society! 
If, however, the Owner did not choose to #OPEN for business, then your action would be wasted.
At the end of the Day phase, you will learn the identity of the Occupation you #VISITED - e.g. If Virtuosity98 #VISITED the mailman, and Fendi was the mailman, then Virtuosity98 would be told:
Finally,
Locations are simply the 10 visitable Occupations. If you find yourself alone with one other player in any given Location during the Day phase, V98 will create a PM chat between the two of you for that phase. Certain other actions may be Location-limited.
Another question I keep getting has to do with when to submit Night and Day actions. All Night/Day actions should be submitted during the phase in which you want the action to take effect.
e.g. #LYNCH [player name] - submitted during Day phase, takes effect at end of Day phase.
e.g. #KILL [player name] - submitted during Night phase, takes effect at end of Night phase.
The only exception to this, is the Planning actions in preparation for the next Day phase:
Each Night, you must lock in one of the following actions for the coming Day phase (via PM to V98):
#VISIT [Occupation]
#OPEN for business
#RESEARCH
These are submitted during the Night phase, but take effect at the start of the Day phase.
Since some Day actions are Location-conditional, everyone has to decide their Location in advance - make sense? I could have solved the problem by adding a Morning phase, but that would have slowed the game down massively.
