I was thinking about something like this myself recently. I think it's really interesting how even though the numbers don't change the mafia has more control over which of them live for every mislim. I'd like to try something like this some time.

Oh right but also I'd hate to have to choose a teammate to kill and that's probably gonna happen a lot.

It sounds really frustrating. One stubborn townie and entire town suffers, even if they identify scum.
giv me pagetop :(

also I don't think it is wise for the scum team to be completely unified and refuse to bus

I think I'm with Kerset, this may be balanced in theory, but most specific games are going to be determined by the rand. Either the townies can townbloc super hard, or they can't and then they lose because scum almost-majority walks over them.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!
