How strong could a SK be?

You forgot one XYL. Your bot made me this once.

Assassin Jester
(sk): You win if you are lynched. You are immune to kills. You kill other players at night. You also win when you are in the final two and there are no other killers.
Abilities: kill

The only way I could have lost was via SUPER KILL which does not count as a regular kill but as a kill that even destroys those nk imune. The mafia endgaming or voting me down would have resulted in me still wining. Having a role that is harmful to the town and can kill keeps the game going even when its just you and the mafia. The role is also called

Rogue Commando

or

Rogue Commando Jester

sometimes.

I assume that is sarcasm since you know I seriously got it on your bot. Me and you had a talk about it when I got it and when you changed its name from Assassin Jester to Rogue Commando Jester. Would you like me to paste our conversation here? I believe I still have those pms somewhere

You didn't take it off the bot, did you?

I went on a crazed power trip when I got that role until a tracker saw me kill somebody and then I still won via lynching

Your bot had a bug with the Arsen role too until I exposed it to you once. I put a bomb on 2 guys. The next day had 4 people left. I chose to explode all my bombs but only one guy died so I had to fight to avoid a lynch instead of auto win at that moment. You had previously died and asked me WTF when the game was over. I said I have no clue. You checked the bot and the way names were scanned and matched with who had bombs was off in a way that it only matched one guys name. I still won by staying alive but I definatly shouldn't have needed to get passed that lynch since 2 should have died instead of one. You told me that you fixed this arsen bug once I had found it so it shouldn't happen again.

Aside from one super almost unbeatable Rogue Comando and this Arsen bug though I haven't seen any others and I would still rank you bot as the best mafia irc bot I have ever played with. I have seen some super buggery ones. That easily make yours the obv best bot

You are a
NAL Seriel Killer
. At night you may kill any player of your choice. You may also kill any player during the day who has not posted for more than 7 days without some V/LA notice in their sig, the games posts, or the V/la thread. You are aligned with your self and you win when you are the last one alive or nothing can be done to prevent this. Nuke all lurkers. Good Luck

You are
George Bush
, a C avg student who somehow got lucky enough to be elected president of the united states twice. It would be absolutly hilarious if you could get those guys to vote for you again after all the trouble you caused. A third term in office would be awesome, but its going to take some very delicate stratejere for you to gather a majority of the votes on day 3. Hopefully you can pull this off without being killed in office ahead of time. Should you succeed you will win the game and have diplomatic immunity once again. Meaning you can help me write death scenes and what not as the rest of the game progress. You won't be harmed as you have the oportunity to watch a good show, it can be just like a cartoon for you. Good Luck Mr. President.

Massivly powerful SK's are fun but porochaz is right. Do to it what you can to keep things balanced out so that the SK has an equal chance of winning compared to everyone else.

You can always limit the number of NK imunity an SK has to once in minis and twice to thrice in larges. I also thought of sk like this that I have used in an open face to face setup

Ultra Seriel Killer - Wins if he is the only player left alive at the end or nothing can prevent this. Can kill any player at night even if they are doc protected. If no one was lynched during the previous day he gets to perform an extra kill at night.

I'm debating on adding some night protections or investigation imunity to balance out other roles or perhaps this is already enough.
