[OLD] Open Setup Ideas and Discussion

[Chronopie]

So called optimal + An RB =/= Good idea.

You'd see one watcher RB'd and the other Nk'd N1

Hider + whoever he hid behind Nk'd N2 (or the other watcher)

[Chronopie]

I think that unclean ought to be modified to be a Cop Head Start game. input?

[Chronopie]

second nom for F11^2

also pre-/in

[Chronopie]

The problem is if n ends up a high number. i.e n=5

So Bob would end up a Cop | Doctor | Vigilante | Roleblocker | Tracker

Alice and Carol would be Neighbours.

Assuming scum don't know what n is, it's still not hard to guess that Bob has all (or at least alot of) the power. Scum Nk #1 - Bob

--

If the playerlist was randomised, Bob still has all that power, but a chance to not die immediately.

How about another scenario?

Bob
Kevin (Scum)
XXX
YYY
ZZZ

n=6

So Bob would end up a Cop | Doctor | Vigilante | Roleblocker | Tracker | Neighbour.

Keven (scum) would be the other Neighbour. Lets say he also gets the scum investigation immunity.

N1 - Bob investigates Kevin, Kills whoever (assuming that a cop would first check his neighbour.)

N2 - Bob tells Kevin (who he thinks is town), his power set. Scum NK - Bob. There goes the town power.

Essentially rendering the game mountainous.

Scenario 3:

Kevin (Scum)
Bob
Alice

n = 4

So Kevin (scum) has

Cop

|

Doctor

|

Vigilante

| Roleblocker (As Kevin is already scum, vig is wasted, and cop is unnecessary, since he would have had vig, doc is wasted too)

While Bob is a tracker | Neighbour and Alice is the other Neighbour.

So Kevin (scum) has the town's/randomised roleblocker power. Lets say Bob declares he tracked Karen (scum) to the NK N1, perhaps on alice. N2 Bob dies.

Mountainous.

I think the solution would have to be 1 ≤ N ≤ 3.

Less power to any individual.

Actually I wouldn't mind running the modified version of this...

[Chronopie]

So how's this variation?

Multirole Mafia

A game for 12 players.

3 Mafia
9 Town

There are 7 abilities to go around:
Inspect (Town - Alignment cop | Scum - Role cop)
Protect (Both - Doctor)
Kill (Town - Vig | Scum - Strongman mafia kill)
Block (Both - Roleblock)
Track (Both - Tracker)
Neighbor
Neighbor

Generate a random number from 1 to 3. We'll call it n.
Now, randomize your playerlist. Going down the list, give the first n abilities to the first player, the second, and so on.

If scum don't get any abilities, give 2 abilities randomly:
Roleblock (only if scum don't receive randomised RB)
Kill-Immunity
Investigation-Immunity

If scum get 1 ability, give one of the above.

If n = 1 AND scum get no abilities, give them all 3.

If scum get kill,

the ability is lost

their kill becomes strongman (doc bypass) for that scum member. If two scum are neighbor with each other, it is also lost. Both count for purposes of "getting an ability". Everyone who doesn't get an ability is considered vanilla.

Infact I might run this past farside for my upcoming open modding. want to be backup mod? or would you rather play?

[Chronopie]

Shotty's Double Doc
2 Goons

2 Cops
3 Townies

Docs can't protect each other.

Just a point. Where are the Docs?

So a townie that becomes scum on Scum GF death...

[Chronopie]

Sounds a bit like one I played in, I don't remember what it was called but the setup was:

4x VT
3x Lover

1x T.Lover
1x Goon

We ended up outing both pairs of lovers D1, but Obv the Mafia didn't NK the other pair for several days, as it would have resulted in an insta Lynch on the 1/1 pair.

(I was the town

Lover

paired w/ the

T.Lover

)

[Chronopie]

You have two kills a night, 7 townies.

D1 - Mislynch (6-4 going into night)
N1 - 2 Townies die (4-4 going into day)

Scum win.
