Mod Effort?

I don't see what all the fuss about having to mimic writing styles while claiming is about. Posting role PM's isn't allowed anyway. Whether somebody got the Glork PM a or b it would still pretty much amout to "Yeah guys, I'm Glork the Cop" if the player had to claim.

I can totally see how flavor can hurt balance, but it doesn't have to. You can write a novel about the role, but if you don't actually change the mechanics, you should be fine with theoretical balance, and safe claims or mod-created themes can prevent flavor from messing around with the in-game balance.

Btw, I totally claim "So flavorless the actual flavor of the game is flavorlessness" for my Mini-Normal (so don't you guys steal it). Everybody will get an incredibly detailed PM about how little flavor their role has. I just hope it'll fit into a thread title.

Word counting townie PM's?

Damn

[/u] if that ain't tricky. That goes above and beyond standard exploitation of flavor-based loopholes.
