Whew. This is an absolute bloodbath. I think I'll need to sit down with a computer later.

My first thought is that if I signed up for a normal game, unsuspecting, and ended up playing this I wouldn't be too happy.

Non-consecutive Commuter
Ascetic Roleblocker
I think my first issue is allowing these roles anywhere near each other.

I'm basically just categorically against fake clears on scum in normal games. I recognize that people will do gunsmith with mafia doctor and I can't stop them, but outside of that, no thank you.

why do we need all these ascetic modifiers?

why are the traitors doctors? are they expected to claim doctor?

I think rule 11 excludes the possibility of compulsive roles, dunno if that's intentional

I'm not sure having players vote in-thread for a draw is the best idea and would suggest PM instead

your night 2 vig role PM says "third night"

gunsmith PM leaves out innocent results

"At night, you may target a player by PM'ing the mod. You will recieve "Vanilla" or "Not Vanilla", depending on if they are Vanilla. If your target is Vanilla, you will also grant them bulletproof for the night." > yeah, let's just call this Bunyip, I find the longer version confusing/a poor match with what it actually does. By bulletproof I'm assuming you mean this protection works against any number of kills? Anyway the role is a tad needlessly complicated but I guess it's not broken

i would not buff the roleblocker to every night, it's already a strong ability

in terms of deaths, i wouldnt count on any of the doc saves happening. the traitors will be aiming away from likely scum nightkills anyhow. You could easily open day 3 with more than half the game dead, and im not gonna say you can't do that but you should be prepared for it and know that this is extremely swingy (and as a result pretty much impossible to balance but we can try)
if the watcher watches someone that the ascetic rb targeted, it would get the result of "No one visited" and not "No Result", right?
yes.

also we need sample result PMs i think

i do understand what you're going for but the traitors shouldn't be protecting anyone who looks town so it's unlikely to matter

I guess. To be honest, I don't know how to balance multiball, so I guess I'll just go with it. What do the rest of yall think?
