Town would probably be slightly better off in 9v3 mountainous just because of the amount of cop weirdness. If you're the cop in this setup a red check doesn't really tell you that much, since it's as likely that a red check is a townie as it is a scum, and as the cop you are not aware of this fact in a closed setup. that being said, town won, right? So I don't know if people can really complain thaaaaat much. That's why i push boundaries and ignore such things. | ||

even then it's tough on the cop, but doable | ||

I know I undervalue framers though because it's so rare it ever comes up. | ||

The problem is that you guys are treating cop checks like they mean something, when really they don't. If you have a framer, godfather, and unaware miller, and a town RB, cop checks don't give you better than 50% chance of being accurate - at which point you're just as well off flipping a coin. So really, this setup is somewhere between 8vt+1tracker and 8vt+1jailkeeper vs 3 mafia, which is pretty reasonable | ||

It was only "logical" that after the gf and miller flipped town assumed that the check should be respected. | ||

dude, i'm sorry, but with a town like this mafia needed a leg up no it shouldn't be used as the default for all games but i think it was completely appropriate for this batch of players >> something validated by the fact that it was a town win despite the set-up xP | ||

It doubles both as a protective role and an investigative role. It becomes especially strong with 1 mafia remaining in endgame scenarios. The problem is that the roleblocker is only strong late, and pretty weak early. Mafia will never carry the KP on anyone likely to be checked. So the RBer has to hit the 1/3 or 1/2 mafia that is the absolute hardest to find. Of course later (if the RB is alive) it becomes insanely strong. | ||
