If a mafia wants thief/swapper they will have to use a top pick to get it or risk getting colision and ending up with vanilla. That means they trade an awesome role that they can choose for an opportunity to get an unknown awesome role amongst the top picks. It's really not really worth it and if they leave it to mid-pack they risk losing it. The same goes with all good mafia roles. W/e let them fight for it while we ensure town has the most protective and information roles and we simply outlast them. This is like the 5th time I repeat this and all the arguments for the assignments of roles are meh. I don't aprove of rad's denial plan and will not follow it if I get a top pick. I'll get a role that makes me a pain in the ass for mafia to deal with and that's what every town should focus on.

As I have many duties to attend to, if anyone cares what I think they can reach me via the PM button.

Also that public irc is a big waste of time and accomplishes nothing.

wherebugsgo is scum for trying to hide his identity in IRC.

Last game I suggested we RNG the draft order and numbers, but everyone clearly was incapable of seeing the value in my awesome ideas.

Introducing flawless draft plan 2.0!

Everybody submits [1][1] and we let the hosts RNG the draft order! This completely removes the mafia advantage of avoiding clashes. Sure, we would have to use the honor system to make sure nobody cheats, but this seems like a pretty trustworthy bunch!

Foolishness knows better than to submit himself to a real time chat with town.

There is a day cycle and a night cycle. A "full cycle" means one entire day + night cycle, or night + day cycle. Order does not matter.

Ace -
You are Ace, a vigilante with two bullets. However, you can only shoot liars. In order for your kill to work, you must prove that your target lied. Be very sure when you present your case, or your power will misfire.


The point of the role is in the underlined sentence. If you try to abuse or get around it, there will be consequences.

For the purposes of the BC role, what constitutes a roleclaim? If I say "I tried to get DayVig but didn't get it", does that equate to a vanilla role claim? If I state I have bodyguards(but am not the mayor) does that equate to a Rock star role claim? If I state I have an investigative role, and all the other investigative roles are dead, is that a roleclaim? Approximately where is the line drawn?


If there can be no doubt as to what role you are suggesting that you are, then it counts as a role claim.

If we're doing a top three deny strat we should definitely include framer in there. It's way overpowered.

So, me and Sandro have been discussing extensively the potential plans. At this point I am inclined to side with both him and Jimbo, and NOT allocate picks. We've been throwing around the idea of allocating the top pick the NRA member, but I'm not sure how valuable that is.

Basically my entire list boils down to keeping tabs on the inventor. Which as Jimbo pointed out, is perhaps not worthy of allocating a whole bunch of picks. Frankly, Inventor will likely fall in the top few picks anyways, especially if any town-aligned player in the top 3 tries for it. Scum will not be able to let it slip far, as they risk losing it outright and having a lower player get vanilla.

So, this brings us to the town role priority list, which me and Sandro were working on. Basically the idea is to focus purely on Investigative/Defensive/Protective roles in the top 20 slots. Slots 20-28 will then take either KP roles or miscellaneous roles.

Still hammering out some details, but the list will follow. It is not set in stone by any means, and it a guideline for townies to pick from. The lower in the draft order you are, the lower on the role list you pick, etc. The only real goal of the list is to minimize overlap among townies, and to give a list of effective pro-town roles.

List looks something like this. NRA should probably have a spot, or at least needs to be dealt with in some fashion, but at this point I'm not sure how.

Investigative/Defensive Roles Picks 1-20

Jack
Inventor
Rock Star
NKVD
Doctor
Detective
Bulletproof
Meth Man
Medic
Capitalist
Parity Cop
Veteran
Jailkeeper
Bullet Bill
Witch
Role Cop
Tracker


KP and Auxillary Roles Picks #21-28

Dreamflower
Day Vig
America
King Maker
Qatol
Copy Cat
Mad Hatter
Bad Santa
Ace


This is the general priority list. Several strong KP roles have been left off the KP list, as the chances of Vig/CPR/Assassin etc making it that far down is essentially nil. Likewise roles like Thief and Role Swapper are not on the axillary list, because they will likely be picked up by mafia higher up.

There is a general tilt to the 1-20 list in favor of putting roles which are strong for both mafia and town towards the top, and roles that are only strong for town further down.
