Other roles not being in the game are only of any consequence if they've got their own win condition like the new crap role you're spamming.

YES. CHRIST. The solution to having a role that relies upon one role out of 800 is not to spam a million copies of both roles; it's to not include the dependent role. The Pikachu works because the chances are so infinitesimally small that anyone would ever draw it. If people were regularly rolling Pikachu that'd be horrible purely because of how silly it is. It should barely be a concern; now we have seven copies of a role dependent on it.

Super Survivor


Mod will publicly confirm your role.
All other factions that only have one person in them become neutral survivors and lose all abilities.
You win if any survivor alignment survives to the end.

I'm not sure whether I should get rid of the mod confirming the role and the changed win condition or leave it like that

On anecdotal experience of previous Idea games, seems like there's a pretty strong chance that a game featuring a Super Survivor ends in pregame.

Different be to wanted just you.

true, I guess it could go along with having it exclude all factions that can be considered normal (mafia/werewolf/SK), but I think it's better if it's able to just make the game go against groupscum, also good chance to win some leap of faiths - not that this setup can actually be played modless with a few of the roles that have been posted

We should really randomize this whole thread and then roll. Just because getting 721 and then 722 would be hugely unlikely. This goes for a lot of stuff in this thread.

You do not really understand how randomization and statistics work, do you? Rolling 721 and 722 is not any less likely than rolling any other two definite, arbitrary numbers...

Do not make any roles that break the game on their own, to begin with, so no one else has to add a surplus of roles that are specifically meant to cripple the role that should not have been there in the first place?...
I suggest people edit their posts to make them roles that are at least somewhat reasonable.

Sorry guys, looking back at the pokemon trainer thing it's terrible, it was like 3 am. I changed all of the pokemon trainers to something else.
Stop using gut as a reason to state someone is scum. Now.

Every night you may select one other faction with a regular kill. Their factional kill will be blocked for the night. If the selected faction isn't in thé game, nothing happens.

Urscum Monarch is probably useless. Maybe just make it so it can name any role and redirect it? Would be a cool tweak, a redirector who can't do anything till they get someone to claim.

At any point in the game, send the mod the name of a role in this thread. You will then become that role for the rest of the game.

Hey CDB, on the Pikachu role, could you include that only the first Pikachu accusation per day is valid? Otherwise I'm going to abuse the shit out of it.
