Rules: a rule of the game has not been respected
Detailed description
• Which part of the rules was not respected by the BGA adaptation
In the original German Midnight Party rules when the steps are full anyone else captured ends up in the wine cellar for -2 points. Is that supposed to happen in the Midnight Party variant that we are able to play on BGA?• Is the rules violation visible on game replay? If yes, at which move number?

It's confusing (to me, at least) to have a variant called Midnight Party if it doesn't then follow the rules of the game Midnight Party!

In this 5-player game:
boardgamearena.com/table?table=173549879
we had a round where the first seven rolls all moved the ghost. So, the ghost mowed down the pawns and filled up the staircase. The next pawns captured by the ghost were placed on the -10 step. That does not seem right. This particular situation is not addressed by the last two pages of the HUGO rules pdf that BGA links to. However, rules_to_Midnight_Party.doc at BGG does address this point, and says '... these captives receive only -2 points each for this round'.

We had a case where the +4 space was open, but multiple pawns got sent to the +10 space, ending the game. That seems wrong.
