Haven't looked at the role PMS yet, but setup-wise, this definitely feels at or near the mark. Will look in better detail later, but I like what you've built here!

Generally speaking, I consider a ninja into trackers to be unfun, not to mention, unfair to the town in basically hard-countering their already a situational PR.

However, in the case of this game, with the ninja as one-shot, and the extra power behind the tracker type role, not to mention, the town rolecop, all serve as mitigating factors which make me okay with the ninja into the tracker type role, here.

I'm also fine with the rolecop being announcing.

Yup, but need updated role PMs as a formality before a pass.

Unless Datisi has any other concerns, I think this gets a /pass from me.

In post 14, Datisi wrote:are rulesets and investigation results no longer looked at during review?

no other concerns about the setup.
The investigation results are, although I wasn't concerned there because the role pms already laid out the interactions I was looking for (making sure that the follower/voyeur results match what they should be, mainly).

The only thing to make sure about is making sure that a question about a No Result vs. No Visit is clear, even though the setup doesn't have a way to fail an investigation.

Rulesets are something that is something which we do look at, just to make sure that there's no non-Normal rules, but 99.99% of rulesets are basically the same, requiring no NRG action. So technically, is needed, albeit usually just as a formality.

(Basically, if the role's results are laid out in the role PMs themselves, then we don't need to have the result PMs to pass the review, but if the results are not laid out in the role PMs, then we DO need to see the result PMs in review. Here, the results of the Cop and Voyeur/Follower were mostly laid out, aside from a "no visit/action" for the Follower/Voyeur, and a universal theoretical "no result" even though that isn't a possibility this game. So, you're right, Datisi, I did miss that we do technically need to see the Role cop results, the No Visit / No Action result, and a hypothetical No Result pm.)
