To be consistent with what Troll said in this thread Troll will nominate a simple F11 game. Troll thinks it be fun and it would be nice to play it with all experienced players.

Troll also finds the
Ach! Hans! Run!
interesting (while simple) enough to second to run at least once.

Troll will nominate a 7 player, reverse vengeful nightless. Troll ran it in the mini normal queue as Mini 993; it seemed competitive and those in the game seemed to enjoy it well enough.

5 townies.
2 goons.

The goons can only kill (in twilight) if the town chooses to no lynch (then them can kill that twilight) or if one of the goons in killed (then them can kill every twilight from then on out.) Clearly scum need to be allowed to daytalk. Potential Mafia Twilight kills need to be submitted before the day ends (and can be changed as often as them like up till then.)

For what it's worth, Troll takes no credit for the setup. Troll just stole (and possibly slightly tweaked) it from one of the endgames mith might have used in California Trilogy III: City of Angles. Troll no be sure if him meant for the other goon to kill every twilight after their partner died but Troll found it worked well that way.

Hmm, it felt like with active play and that small a player base there were many connections to work with. Had town gotten two lynches after the correct scum lynch Troll thinks that there was almost no chance of the second mafia member making it out (which kind of be what Troll expected which was why Troll ran it how Troll did.) Perhaps the game was off because the players knew each other fairly well, the town played particularly well or the scum played particularly poorly or perhaps Troll just got lucky and got one that felt competitive for some other reason. Perhaps Troll just saw what Troll was expecting to see.

Troll would probably be fine with someone running either the reverse vengeful that mith had in mind or the modified one Troll already ran. Perhaps it could be called Nightless Vindictive if that no be a name for some other setup yet.
