4th Multiball Scum?

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Sun May 22, 2016 4:22 am

Post by Kappy »

In multiball, the scum usually consist of Mafia, Werewolf, and Alien. The Cop gets Mafia/Not Mafia, the Seer gets Werewolf/Not Werewolf, and the Conspiracy Theorist gets Alien/Not Alien. But what if you wanted a 4th scum group? I'm not talking about adding a Cult or a Serial Killer, I want one that acts like the Mafia or the Werewolves or the Aliens. The only idea I came up with was Demon. The Ghostbuster gets Demon/Not Demon. Any other ideas?

First, you've made some statements that aren't usually true here on Mafiascum. We have mafia and werewolf sometimes but Alien isn't a common term.

Anyway, I don't know why you'd WANT to have three much less four scum groups, but if you did you can name it whatever you want. Demon is fine.

Alien exists on the Mafiascum wiki, so I figured it was somewhat common. I guess four scum groups might be useful for a bastard? Idk, the thought just crossed my mind, I wasn't really planning any setups.

Alien really only exists for great idea Mafia and it's variants. There is no need for it to be anywhere else

It's just a mechanic that overall works the same regardless of the name, so you can use any names you want, as long as the role PM makes it clear that the cop is a cop, and what it gets guilties on (well, unless you go mod a normal game)

Even in Great Idea, aliens aren't quite a counterpart to the other two. They have crazier roles, with the downside that there are fewer of them in the deck (and therefore lower odds of having scumbuddies) and their nightkills are limited in ways the other scum factions' aren't.

Normal games can't have more than 2 scumgroups, and with themes you probably have something that will fit the theme. (Also, multiball games are dumb even with only two scum factions and you shouldn't do this.) But if you reeeeeeeeeeeally wanted to run a pointless clusterfuck with normal flavor, then you could have, for example, an Italian Mafia, a Russian Mafia and a Korean Mafia.

You are
laxative
. As long as you're alive, nothing can block the Shit factional kill.
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.
