To recap what others have said (and make sure we're agreeing on this):

Top picks go for the imba roles, such as inventor.
High picks go for investigative roles
Middle picks go for protection
Low picks go for protection / random situational roles (just avoid the clearly mafia roles, of course)

I'll make this as general as possible. We want to hide what we will take as best we can, while still distributing as many roles as possible. So I will cut up the draft into large sections and suggest what people in those roles should take. First the big no-nos.

Anything you think would help town, or anything that isn't on the no-no list or on the list below this. Good spot to take a standard vig/mad hatter roles of sorts.

First targets would be who you think is most helpful town, then Id say the power or DT roles.


Obviously this shouldn't be taken as canon. It's just to make as little overlap as possible. Mafia are already going to chance some of the no-no roles. Any improvement or suggestions and I'll edit it. The only thing I will not change is how unspecific it is.

Many vig/bomber-type roles are on that no-no list ,_,

For my group of people, try to draw from things like:

Vig
Mad Hatter
Zombie is on the no-no list, but I personally think it can be valuable for town since the KP happens the night after death (i.e. there's time for discussion over who to use it on)
Mafia 4 Hatter (I haven't seen this before, is it more pro-town or pro-mafia?)
Copy Cat
Day Vig

EBWOP: Copy Cat was on the list, but I personally think it's got value to the town (and actually can a blue role in case the Day 1 lynch goes badly or gets nullified). Pick with discretion.

Jimbo suggested having 6 of the best town roles in the top 6 picks, although I would've added another slot for another medic pick. This plan deals with three problems in a plan where the controlled roles are in the top. First, it takes advantage of the fact that mafia is likely to get a pick in the top, but is unlikely to get multiple top slots. Thus, the plan allows town to maximize their picks of good pro-town roles. Secondly, the addition of two great defensive roles and a medic alongside parity cop, BB, and JOAT ensure that mafia can't just snipe the top of the list. Thirdly, moving the "controlled" list to the middle of the list hurts mafia because that's where the mafia are most likely to be concentrated. It also denies mafia further down the list the use of these dangerous roles.


Can't we just use Jimbo's plan again?

Why do you suggest that after roles has been picked? I'm against any plan that aim's to control town roles instead of mafia roles.

Pick order is solved. You should have brought new role pick propositions up before hand, because now there is an inherent risk of any proposition to be mafia influenced.
