amended 2d3
, or,
2d3 but when you roll a 1 or a 2 on the first die you just flip a coin instead

Admittedly, the balance of a subsetup will depend on what other subsetups exist, but I wouldn't have expected there to be that much of a difference.
probably true, plus it suffers from the tendency of (especially newbie) scum to not claim doctor when they're getting lynched

i think rolecop is hard to find balance around with the typical selection of un-gated roles but simultaneously i don't like roleblocker setups in newbies

some other ideas

  • rolecop, goon vs. 5 vt, jailkeeper, tracker
  • rolecop, goon vs. 5 vt, jailkeeper, 1-shot cop
  • rolecop, goon vs. 7 vt; nightkill automatically fails night 2 and night 3

night 1 ninja + 1-shot rolecop vs. watcher and jailkeeper is probably townsided
night 1 ninja + 1-shot rolecop vs. 2 masons is scumsided

it would be more straightforward to have setups labeled as "daytalk enabled/disabled" rather than having an encryptor since it's an open setup and the effect of the encryptor flip is marginal - moreover i don't really like using it as a balance consideration in a newbie setup to begin with(daytalk should probably be on by default just to make newbie experience generally less nerve-wracking)

the rest of the setups are probably fine. you should come up with a single name for "(ninja rolecop)"
