Hey guys,

I'm going to try to run this set up here. It's fairly straightforward. You are all cops, and you each have an additional modifier to your role that messes with cop results.

Everyone also has an ability that activates once they have been investigated 4 times (some bad, some good).

4 Town
1 Mafia

Set up is semi-open.

Sample Role PM:
Hey,

You are a Town Cop ! Every night, you may target someone to investigate you will be informed if this player is mafia or town. Every day, during they day, you have your vote and your voice.

You are also a 1-shot Miller ! The first person to investigate you will receive a red check, everyone after that will receive a green check.

If you are investigated 4 times, you become a town roleblocker ! You will only be able to perform 1 action per night.


Sorry, I didn't use the site template for this, but you know the drill... Abide by site rules, don't be overly mean... Don't do anything I wouldn't do.

...

I'm not sure why you wouldn't just run VT/mafia goon. Because if everyone has checks/ miller returns mafia/ setup involves checks not being reliable/ no one can rely on checks so why have them? -Dense ES

[edit] Nevermind I think I get it now to some extent now!

It's an avenue to gain additional information, it's not impossible to gain information from them, all of the modifiers are some variant of 1-shot. Claims and checks can be very valuable. I've run this set up twice, it usually seems to play nicely.

Is this your own setup or some variation of Dethy I haven't heard about Eywa?

For those that don't know, Dethy is a 4cop/1mafia setup that goes like this:

1 scum
1 cop
1 insane cop
1 naive cop
1 paranoid cop

n0 start, no nk on n0 (but cops check).

What happens in this if all cops claim? Won't it be obvious to narrow it down?

I guess this like kind of dethy, but we cant tell the setup for sure and there are some extra abilities.

The issue with Dethy is that everyone claims their checks, and as long as you don't hit the random cop d1, it's easy to solve because unknown checks turn into green checks.

If you play with no lynch, it's impossible for mafia.

Its a set up that I made. I wanted to make a set up like Dethy in such a way that it gives information, but that it's not solvable.

Dethy isn't solvable unless the mafia screws up or the town gets lucky. But the scum must know what to claim and when to go big.

But yes, it generally ends in a 3 person lylo with 1 person clear town.

Thing about Dethy though, is that it's much better in real life/irc/voice mafia, because a short time limit makes people scramble to figure shit out and be less efficient at solving the game.

And yes, Dethy is mandatory lynch + mandatory night kill with alignment-only flips. Any other version is solvable.
