I interpreted marking as a last will ability, and the mod gets to be a bastard and mess that up.
When the PR rotates to Town Marker they get to create an IC. If I'm right by that, what happens if they target scum? Does the town have to guess that the last will target wasn't town? Then people will likely attempt to WIFOM the bastard mod's choice, and, frankly, the mod should be compelled to choose a mark as in this scenario it seems optimal for the scumteam to abstain from marking.
Never mind this is confusing. Town Marker is a confirmed last will ability, not marking confirmed town. The mod can mark, but cannot mislead the town's ability to deduce the Town Marker's last will ability.

I think the ruleset should be changed to only dead townies drawing PRs.

I like the idea, but I think the mod gets a lot of room to be a bastard. The mod obviously needs to be compelled to make the dead thread and not interfere with it.

Let's be real though, we both played in Forest Fire and the stumped townies didn't do much besides maybe jester, who said scum was at least not you and poe agreed that it must be vifam. a stumped townie is a lot more useful than a marker.

How would it be to have a Mafia Marker that upon being lynched, became a Mafia Ghost Marker? I feel like the mod is way too competent for the role with all the information they have available.

Also, in the inevitable case that someone gets double marked, would Felicia be shown as marked twice or simply marked?

That kind of completely kills your ghost of the godfather idea thought :laugh: I mean this can't be worse than mountainous as it is.
