this is something_smart's setup which i want to run in the open queue, made a few changes (1shot bp replaced with goon cop, framer replaced with ascetic informed) and will link to this when i do

Setup:

2
Mafia Goons

1
Mafia Traitor

10
Vanilla Townies


The traitor is not bulletproof and is endgamed if both full members die.

The mafia can choose up to 3 of the following powers:

Roleblocker
Rolecop/Tracker (rolecops and tracks target)
Ascetic Informed (knows the setup, and as a bonus it's ascetic)
Bulletproof Godfather (appears as innocent to the cop and Vanilla to the rolecop)
Modified Rolestopper (prevents all abilities EXCEPT kills on the target)
Recruit Traitor (traitor becomes goon and can then be given another ability)


Town starts with 3 role points. For every power the mafia take, town gains 1 role point. Mafia can choose who they want to give the abilities to. If they recruit the traitor, they can do this by saying 'give X role to the traitor' even while they don't know their identity.

Then, town is given roles totaling the number of points they have:

2-point rolesCop
Jailkeeper
Vigilante
Watcher
2 Masons


1-point rolesTracker
Bodyguard
Friendly Neighbor
Rolecop
Goon Cop
Vengeful


The distribution is determined by giving each pair of points a 50% chance to become one 2-point role and a 50% chance to become two 1-point roles. Each role cannot be given more than once. The roles are distributed randomly among the town players.

The exact probabilities:
3 pointsOne 2-point, One 1-point: 50%
Three 1-points: 50%

4 pointsTwo 2-points: 25%
One 2-point, two 1-points: 50%
Four 1-points: 25%

5 pointsTwo 2-points, one 1-point: 25%
One 2-point, three 1-points: 50%
Five 1-points: 25%

6 pointsThree 2-points: 12.5%
Two 2-points, two 1-points: 37.5%
One 2-point, four 1-points: 37.5%
Six 1-points: 12.5%
No matter what happens, I'll be right there with you.

I think giving wolves the option to either not opt into daytalk or sacrifice daytalk for some other kind of benefit is good for this setup
