"CYBRIDS ROCK AND I AM TOTALLY A CYBRID. VOTE OVERSEER 2009!"

Okay, I definitely see a lot of potential for "Fun" in the setup so far. I'm glad you came up with the Loudspeaker thing, Dakarian, it was a damn good idea.

"CYBRIDS ROCK AND I AM TOTALLY A CYBRID. VOTE OVERSEER 2009!"

If you manage to balance this game and run it after New Year's, I'll in for sure.  Looks quite fun.

For Bastard games, the REAL joke is there's just a Snowman and a Dissenter, each of which ends up sure the other is just a REALLY weird overseer :P

And yeah, definitely after new years since I want to host at least one basic game before doing something this complicated.

Nice thing is that this isn't a Bastard Game.  Not only can wierd stuff like that happen, but it also means you can run the game over and over.  Bastard Games work like puzzles, and once the puzzle is solved you can't play it again.

The communication parts look pretty interesting.  I'd probably join the game, although I think I'd get confused :P.

Well, much of the game actually is standard:

Imperials = Town

Rebels = Quazi-mafia group with a recruiting Neighbor and a VERY weak cult aspect

Cybrids = Mafia with a X # shot recruiting feature

Everything else is really just power roles.  You still scumhunt normally.. you just have two quirky enemies to worry about.

Cybrid Dissector//Implanter

Hmm... how about not one shot anymore, but if they get the ability to give players the "Bomb" trait, where if that player is killed, their killer dies as well? (Last vote if lynched)

Its a nice ability, but it means that they could conceivably have trouble actually getting rid of the player later on.

Added bonus - If a doctor "protects" a player, they discover that the player is a bomb, and if the Technician "inspects" a player it is announced to everyone?

Make it so that if the Cybrids recruit a "Bomb" it explodes even if the conversion is successful (so that they can't plant a bomb then recruit them later) and you have a deal.

Added bonus is nice as well.

Heh... yeah, I'd say being a bomb means convert = death. That makes me pretty happy, actually.

Heh, cybrid with 4 converts but no night kill - suddenly every townie is a bomb by day 4, but no one has actually died! Town is confused... until the doctor discovers the first bomb...

The scum can't kill you, but every time you myslynch...

Okay, continuing to throw out role ideas, how about

"Patrolman"
May walk the rounds at night. He cancels one players night action at random, and discovers the identity of that player (but not what the action was).
