This doesn't seem to be in the spirit of that post at all... the supporters can claim at no cost, and they have no reason to want to win with town. In fact, with the current ratios, a mafia member can just claim D1 and the mafia + supporters can vote out all the townies and win together.

The actions of the town and mafia seem to matter very little compared to the actions of the supporters.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

I'm going to change the
Supporter
wincon to fix it.

I made it so that the
Mafia
wants to avoid being the first people picked while the
Supporters
have more incentive to survive.
