Nomination Mafia updated to 8 players, and made more townsided (the current version seems to be rather scumsided).
I have a soft spot for setups where town can survive beyond the point at which they'd normally lose, and this mechanic gives an easy opportunity to create one, while tinkering with the balance a bit. I'm not sure whether it's in the right place or not, but it seems like it should be an improvement.

based on the results we've seen in the 7p version, i think an extra townie might be closer to balanced.
it also helps to mitigate one of the problems that occasionally arises in this setup: town apathy when players suspect scum have nominated three townies. it happens every now and again. and because the nomination mechanic is on even-player-numbers days in the 7p version, it requires a higher percentage of players to all agree on the execution. this can create stalemates and kill the flow of the game.
yeah, i like the nomination mechanic being active on days with odd-numbers of players. seems a good change to me.- callforjudgement
