It does exist. Not sure if normal. I’d have no objections to that one being normal though. It’s solid.- Wake1

I feel like a modifier should be made that, when an action successfully targets a play, that player is notified that "something happened." Doesn't reveal what happened, who targeted the player, or how many players targeted the player.
Just adds that teeny tiny bit of information that could maybe be used later. Doesn't reveal alignment at all.- TemporalLich

Oh I like that.In post 478, TemporalLich wrote:I kinda do want the "neighborhood cop" and the modifier.
Considering the modifier is a weaker version of Loud/Announcing, I think Noticeable is a good name for it.- Amrun

personally I like that modifier, I wouldn't know what to call it.In post 481, BBmolla wrote:Would a modifier where you could only target any given player once per game be useful?
Maybe Overconfident might work, as they're sure their ability worked fine and that they don't need to try again? Though an Overconfident investigative role might be confusing flavor-wise.time will end- Plum

Is it possible that Mafiascum could make a new section where we can play Normal games BUT trial new roles and modifiers to see how they interact, and if they could be whitelisted?
I'd like to see the modifier that's the opposite of Loud enacted.
And I was thinking a "Delayed" modifier would be neat.
Also the Neighborhood Cop should be added like now.-

I think it's Reflexive Watcher, though it's not an "opposite" exactly."Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."

By opposite do you mean a role that knows what action it was targeted with but not who did it, or a role like Ninja that can’t be Tracked?In post 489, Ankamius wrote:Am I dumb for not knowing what the opposite of the loud modifier is?-

can someone link me to a write up of any sort where they've explained how to balance closed setups? Mafia is played casually on my home site and the mods there have a history of making scum sided setups. If I post an example here, you lot won't be able to stop laughing. Thanks in advance!"Don't be afraid of losing people. Be afraid of losing yourself by trying to please everyone."
"If you're bored contemplate the fact that the collective reads of n players in a n-player game of Mafia define a set of vectors in an n-space, and useful game information can be extracted from this."

Maybe make a thread in the open setup forum where you can post examples and we can point out the flaws?In post 496, Knightmare491 wrote:can someone link me to a write up of any sort where they've explained how to balance closed setups?

Does your site focus as much on day play as this site?Come see me in the Great American Melodrama in Oceano- Knightmare491

Okay, I'll do that. On my site there is a philosophy problem when it comes to balance. Most think that town and scum should have equal power. e.g. - If town have cop, mafia must have godfather sorta thing.
My site puts a lot of pressure on day play."Don't be afraid of losing people. Be afraid of losing yourself by trying to please everyone."
