On first glance, a touch townsided unless the thought is loud fruit vendor appears pretty self-clearing? ungated Vig/GS/Tracker is a pretty solid combo (and ascetic automatically gets avoided by investigatives almost always, which helps narrow things down). The vig can get outed by either investigative PR potentially, but vig is usually gonna get in 2+ shots, which is a pretty strong outcome for town unless vig shots are REALLY bad.

I'm SLIGHTLY inclined to give mafia a 1-shot doctor (immune to the GS, and a very slight counter to the vig), but that may be a bit too much. Will mull it over.

Yeah i think I'm ok with that as a compromise. Two full investigatives (even if tracker is mediocre early game, it's very strong late game) and a full vig is a lot of power for town without any direct counter from scum.

I'm ok w setup. Nervous the fruit vendor isn't as strong as mastina thinks it is, but I don't think it's totally townsided if it turns out to basically be useless (especially if fruit vendor does clever stuff like confirming the ascetic w his night action). Town has reasonable odds of coordinating well, but it's gonna be swingy on whether the vig is any good or not, and/or the gunsmith targets the vig.

OP:
looks good

Role PMs:
scum: "You win when you control 50% of the living and nothing can prevent this." change "and" to "or", otherwise ok
That said, are you announcing as single ball or no? Scum role PMs make it clear to them it's single ball, town role PMs don't. If htat's intentional, im ok w it, but want to make sure it's intentional.

Other notes:
Not really, looks good

In post 15, mastina wrote:I don't see why this is necessary wording-wise.
FWIW, the "and" is redundant. If scum control 50% of the vote, clearly nothing can prevent it because it already happened.

The "or" is there in case something like a MYLO mislynch with no protective/killing/blocking power for town still alive. There, scum have yet to reach 50%, but they still achieve wincon because 50% is inevitable, so rather than forcing through a boring night phase, the mod has the option to just end it at the mislynch.
