A joke submission:
6 named townies
2 goons
Nightless
All names are announced at the start of D1. Town flips show names.
Town win by eliminating all scum.
Scum win by correctly naming every townie (note that this is inevitable if every townie but one is dead).
Scum do this in their pt. If they are correct about every name, they win. Otherwise, one living scum must 1v1 a living townie of their choice.
Ties on 1v1s break in scum’s favor.
Flavor is preferably names from a movie/theater show, and 1v1’s are the understudy trying to steal the part- Irrelephant11

Because even if they win the 1v1 the scum in the 1v1 will get lynched immediately afterwardsIn post 3, RadiantCowbells wrote:Why doesn't scum just go for the 1v1 on d1
Better to try to solve he puzzle of townie names by getting a couple mislynches before using one of their chances to guess- Irrelephant11

What stops town from lynching a claimed spy to prevent scum from arresting them? Aside from losing 1 of very few lynchesIn post 17, Something_Smart wrote:- Irrelephant11

?
With 9V, as the setup currently stands:
Named townie
1-shot bulletproof
5 vts
2 loud goons
Edit: this was actually my starting point and is one of my favorite possible setups. The wifom generated by the fact that a scum misfire can create a guilty feels very fun to playLast edited by Irrelephant11 on Wed Mar 13, 2019 11:39 am, edited 1 time in total.- Irrelephant11

After. And mafia definitely get to coordinate pregame. I can’t decide if the thread should also be open for a discussion phase before letters are submitted - I think this is the only way to get some setups (when would 9V happen randomly, for example) but also makes the process of choosing letters much more important, with some players trying to force their will on others, etc. which messes with the Choose Your Own Adventure spirit.
Thoughts?- Irrelephant11

CYOA – I like mine a lot.
Pick 5 – I like it! I thought about my options as scum and each time I thought I’d gamed it the town choices were a good counterbalance.
Microtown – Feels like the role list could maybe be better? But I’m very interested to see it played regardless
Lost Heirs v3 – Easy to understand, interesting
Leveler Mafia – Not exciting to me, but good
PYAE – I do enjoy Grandest Idea games and the like (which is why this is in my top half), but I feel like this system for *getting there* is a little overly complicated, and the results are less wacky and more, just, guaranteed unbalanced.
Jingle’s setup – It’s fine
Martyrs updated – Too screwy for my tastes in opens
Pizza mafia – If I understand this right, everyone will claim d2, and scum will just try to *be lucky with claims* and look for the pepperoni. Not the worst setup, but doesn’t sound like every win would feel deserved.
I’d Take a Bullet – Doesn’t feel all that fun to play, especially as scum, though I *get* it.
DDL’s setup - feels a little overly complicated, and as Jingle mentions it has not yet worked out the kinks
Inventions and Stability – It’s not intuitive to me what would make this one fun to playLast edited by Irrelephant11 on Thu Apr 04, 2019 11:10 am, edited 1 time in total.- Irrelephant11

I think this particular challenge made for complicated setups that were hard to give feedback on. Not necessarily a bad thing, since complicated setups can be cool, but something to keep in mind I guess.In post 114, Jingle wrote:Assuming no further votes, Relly is the clear winner, so I'd suggest he think up a set of criteria.
Honestly, I'm kinda sad that we had so much less setup tweaking this time. A few of these could probably have been much better with a bit of feedback.
I’ll try to make next month’s simpler (though I’ll wait a few hours to see if there are more votes before assuming I’ve won).- Irrelephant11
