I recently looked over the Grey Labyrinth's list of past mafia games. ;They have listed who modded, how big it was, what the theme was (they play a lot of theme games there), and who won. ;So far they've racked up more than forty games, almost fifty in fact. ;And as I was reading through the list, I noticed a very telling statistic: not once has a serial killer ever won. ;So the question I put before you is: Is winning as a Serial Killer an impossible dream? ;If so, what could be done to even the odds, and make the SK a faction capable of challenging the Mafia and Town?

I think it's possible for the SK to win in MG3....

I like it the way it is. Its the Ultimate Challenge role. Whoever pulls it off should get alike a fancy prize.If not at least a lot of notoriety.

The SK is a biotch of a role, it'd seem. ;In my opinion, every side should have a roughly equal chance of winning. ;Look at Brunchmafia III. ;There are two Mafia families of four, and a saboteur who wins if either family wins, out of a total of 34. ;In other words, the saboteur wins something like 75% of the time.

I've been thinking about this a lot. ;I have to agree with AFKAD. ;Each side should have a decent chance of winning and I don't think that your run-of-the-mill SK has that chance. ;I think I have a 12 player game that might have a SK role that can win. ;I'll look it over some more and maybe I'll try it.-JEEP
