Mafia Discussion Designs a setup

[Gypyx]

this is half serious

players may only make 1 suggestion at a time, and have to wait for someone else to add something

additions can be vetoed by popularity vote

i might run it if it turns out fun

[Gypyx]

i'll start : it's a semi-open

[DragonEater70]

Suggestion: No cops, Gunsmiths, or reflavored Cops/Gunsmiths.

[Gypyx]

Spoiler: current state of the setup

Semi-open

No cops / gunsmiths / similar roles

Modifiers can change as part of the randomness

[Aristeia]

everyone has a gun but they only work on a certain day

[TemporalLich]

Suggestion 3: There is a role capable of tracking and protecting a player known as a Wayfarer

[Jake The Wolfie]

Suggestion 4: Public Night talk is granted to a select few players, known as "The Council".

[light_ganski]

Suggestion 5: The Council can vote to make someone elimination-proof for the next day

[Jake The Wolfie]

Suggestion 6: Most players, aside from having a gun, are vanilla.

[ketchup777]

Suggestion 7: The first time a Council member is eliminated, remaining Council members may vote for a new person to be elected into the Council that night.

[Gypyx]

Spoiler: current state of the setup

general stuff

Semi-open, a part of the variation is that players get different modifiers

No cops or flavor cops

there are a few players known as "The Council" they can publically talk during the night and have access to the following actions :

They can vote to make someone outside of the council elimination proof during the next day

The first time a member of the council die, the council may vote to appoint a new member

roles

Everyone has a gun that only works on a certain night

There is a wayfarer, it's power is to both track and protect a player of their choice

most player are vanilla outside of having a gun

suggestion 8 : members of the council cannot make themselves immune to being executed

if i understeand well wayfarer is basically a combined tracker doctor?

[TemporalLich]

suggestion 9: The council is disbanded during XeLo

if i understeand well wayfarer is basically a combined tracker doctor?

pretty much

[Gypyx]

suggestion 10 : the council starts with some players randomly assigned as members, before day 1, there is a phase where players vote to add other people to the council

[DragonEater70]

Did you guys forget this is semi-open?

Suggestion 11: The setup is generated by rolling 3D3, with each die being responsible for a single vairable, such as a town PR or mafia PR.

[TemporalLich]

suggestion 12: another potential role is an investigative role that learns what night a player's gun works on

Did you guys forget this is semi-open?

I had assumed "Everyone has a gun that only works on a certain night" was assigned semi-openly

[DragonEater70]

Oh that makes sense

[Gypyx]

Yeah that's what i was thinking too, just that it seemed more fun to flesh out the council part

but regardless we have the dice now, let's make it work :lol

[Gypyx]

suggestion 13 : The sum of all the nights at which town can use their gun is equal to X, the stronger the town roles get, the higher X becomes

[Gypyx]

(like, if there is a N1, a N1, a N4 and a N10 X is equal 16)

[KayJayQueue]

This is so fun!

[Gypyx]

go on, design

[KayJayQueue]

What is XeLo?

[DragonEater70]

XeLo refers to both ELo (days where town must eliminate scum, or else lose - for example if there are 3 town and 2 scum) and Melo (days where eliminating town results in a town loss - for example if there are 3 town and 1 scum), collectively.

[ketchup777]

14: everyone in PTs has daytalk and nighttalk

[Gypyx]

Spoiler: current state of the setup

general stuff

Semi-open, a part of the variation is that players get different modifiers

To generate a setup, roll 3D3, this determines what power roles are generated

To determine on which night each townie can use their gun, the sum of all the nights at which each townie can use their gun is equal to X, the stronger town becomes, the bigger X gets

No cops or flavor cops

full Daytalk

there are a few players known as "

The Council

" some are determined randomly at the start of the game, others are elected in an additional phase before day 1

they can publically talk during the night and have access to the following actions :

They can vote to make someone outside of the council elimination proof during the next day

The first time a member of the council die, the council may vote to appoint a new member

If the game reaches XeLo, the council gets disbanded

roles

Everyone has a gun that only works on a certain night

There is a wayfarer, it's power is to both track and protect a player of their choice

There is a role able to see on which night players can use their gun

most player are vanilla outside of having a gun
