Framer, Rolecop, RB seems fine, but that assumes a Vet exists (making Framer essentially a goon).
@JAT. I need to know this 100%. Are you masoned with anyone?

Because that means that who HF tracked is one of the following:
Miller
Parity Cop
Role Cop

Wait, starting masons, weird. guess it didn't matter. It gives us the setup. Setup could be something like: Doc, Tracker, Miller x2, Vet vs RB, Framer, Rolecop OR Doc, Tracker, Miller vs RB, Framer, Goon. The first would be odd with 2 protective roles and I think I've run a setup almost exactly like the second. Or it could be something like: JK, Tracker, Parity Cop, Miller x1-2 vs RB, Rolecop, Framer. I've seen the setup before somewhere (maybe BH ran it) where JK in theory balances out the double investigative role because you can't both protect and investigate. It's a counter wifom setup.

Doc/JK/Tracker??? That seems pretty broken. Even if tracker is weak. 2 healing roles is crazy strong.

2 wandering Millers seems unlikely, no?

No, in a setup like that Tracker gets downplayed because they have to actually figure out any information they find.

2 miller just seems unbelievably unlikely in a 13 man setup

In a setup with 2 investigative roles, I don't think so. My usual rule of thumb for trackers is that they need an equal number of town and mafia to be able to track. I wouldn't balk at 2 millers but 1 is fine there too.

Yes but it almost assures a useful investigative result by D3 by having Tracker/Parity. It's balancing. Either way, we're on a tangent.

How do 2 wandering millers make sense though? According to your logic the second investigative role would be another tracker then...

I love trackers, but part of tracking is that it requires both reading the game (to read who to track) and reading the result. The upside of it is that on a good track it can give you a 100% red check. Parity Cop is really strong in mini's because if it survives it literally owns the game and is exceptionally hard to fakeclaim. On D3 Parity cop should know 2 greens or 1 red and on D4 it flat out solves the game. Essentially, you're replacing a random blue like Vet or Named VT in favor of a weak investigative role, but because you have a strong medic and a strong investigative role you need to weaken town's ability to flat out win by blue play should mafia not get lucky with back-to-back-to-back blue hits.

so a mafia with a vig and a rber and a framer would be op right?

Mafia Vig is OP. Last time I saw one was in Bluelightz? They can claim at any point and pretty much win so long as they don't get checked or endgamed by a cop check. They're like masons in this game (not normal masons) stupid dumb broke. Normal mason would be fine in this game. It's like Named VT with a bonus.

parity can be against a framer and a gf in this setup so it's not particularly THAT strong

I don't think GF and Framer are usually paired up together. But that's actually really interesting. I'm going to have to think about that for a future game.

Can't do alignment cop in a mini unless it's 1-shot. Otherwise it's more about great scum play or lucky night actions.

While we're going into crazy setup world, is there is there any setup that could have JK, doc and framer? Like even framed, rolecop, vig would be heavily tow favored right?
