I can't just think of one on the spot!
References only work when there's a situational oppurtunity, you can just throw them out there haphazardly.
You'll get a reference soon enough, sparky.

Hey everyone, sorry about this...

I'm not going to be able to mod this game, for a variety of reasons.  The sudden loss of two of my players (no blame on them, their lives outside the game are more important than the game) basically sucked all of my creative energy out of the project, and I really don't feel like trying to rebalance the game with two new roles, because the game was already a delicate balance as-was.

I'll put a link here to the modding chat I had with Scripten, so you can see what your roles would have been (except Caz and SBC, whose roles I haven't created).

So sorry everyone...

Edit: Modding chat here.

Additionally, I have another, no-player-input-on-setup game written up, and I may put it up for signups after I get it checked by a more experienced game mod. :-\

Damn, I would have really liked my role, too.

Tiruin as SK magicarp would have been glorious. :P

Yeah, that was my favorite role.  Completely helpless to start out, and there were several non-damaging abilities that could ream her over, but basically unstoppable once gyrados got released.  I gave you HP Electric specifically to serve as a foil for Tiruin's power.

Huh, interesting design process. The thing that stands out to me is that later roles made have to compensate for the previous ones (though that is inevitable, I guess, for any game).

I actually kinda wish I had !in'd had it started, though.
Dat Magicarp. XD

Dat Magikarp is about right.  I actually kind of designed earlier pokemon around countering later ones too (see Litleo/Pyroar re: Flabort's pokemon).

The fact that I was pretty much designed overall as a counter to specific player's powers is neat. If I died earlier, town would be screwed :P

Thank you for that picture of the magicarp. That made my day.

As for designing maybe a future pokemafia game, are you familier with the concept of "shadow pokemon" from Pokemon: Colleseum, and Pokemon: Gale of Darkness? Because I think those would be great methods of mafia attacks. Have the scumkill be "Shadow Rush" (Because shadow damage has no weakness or vulnerability, bypassing the problem with ghosts that normal types have)


Also, now I have no excuse to make Farscape references.
