The Mod's Enemy - You will be told, in all players' role PMs, that you are scum.
Stupid Gossipy Mafia Goon - You must include all of your scumbuddies' names in every one of your posts
TME: See Kill Webadict Now mafia.
SGMG: Workaroundable, you just need to include e'eryone's name each go.
I wasn't the Webadict!

But all were told that you were in the PMs. (I'm betting.)

IT doesn't say that "The Mod's Enemy" needs to be scum, after all.

RTD player

Each other player is given a number. The GM rolls a die to determine who the RTD player will vote for once a day. At night, the RTD player can decide to make an action. The GM will roll, deciding if he will:

Townie character

It may be bad, but it's my dream job.

WoT the fuck? - Every one of your posts must contain at least 30 complete sentences and be a minimun of 300 words long. They don't all have to be game related, so something like "Random vote so-and-so, and now for your entertainment, Moby Dick! ~~~" is perfectly acceptable.

You are Dakarian:  Once each day you must post a total of 2000 words.  At least one post must be a WOT with 700 words in it.




Just don't give the WoT one to me.

(Twin) Lyncher
Your goal is to kill the (Twin) Lynchee, [Insert name here]. When dies, you win. You must be alive to win, and you disappear after winning. (Any votes or actions to the twin are switched with those on you)

Parentheses not revealed to person.

I love it.. I LOVE IT!  That's an awesome role

You are Link, Townie Resetter. At any time, during the day, you can play the Song of Time, restarting the entire game and re-shuffling all the roles.
I'm pretty sure this one is aimed at me :P.

You are a Violent Logophobist.

Any person who posts more than 3 times you may choose to kill. There is no limit to the amount of times you can do this.
Wait, this one too...

One word: Ghost
It would work in a game with no roleflips or death millers, I suppose.  Or, indeed, a game without free pms - the ghost would just be a debate contributor and nothing else.  Wait, actually, if you added a clause that the Ghost couldn't pm people, it might not be too bad...

Oh, and Dakarian, didn't [classified information] have a ghosting ability?

Suicidal nonvoter

You will die on the fight night.  You cannot stop it.  You have no vote.
Minus the non-voter part, I think this role is actually fairly common...

Hey, ToonyMan, remember that Random Voter role?  Remember what happened when your vote happened to land on me, the Psycho Guy Who Kills Anyone Who Votes For Him?

As for my role: the Global Roleblocking Lynch Immune Doomspeaker ("The ToonyMan").  Probably speaks for itself.

Oh, and I think the most broken game was that game I played with Mipe, Dakarian and Someone (that's his actual screen name) on IRC with the arsonist.  It was totally worth it though for this moment, which I paraphrase.  To put it in context, we had mislynched day 1, and had now NL'd twice.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Yeah, he got an arsonist on a "mild" setup with only a watcher and townies.  It was pretty funny though :P.

That... doesn't seem too bad, actually.  Of course, you're buggered if you get NK'd... but that's the same as a normal jester.

No, no. He has to be lynched to death, and the revive stops him from counting as having died...

No, he only revives once, but nobody will lynch him after he roleflips, becoming a CONFIRMED JESTER. :3

I'm not a jester, I promise! Ignore the mod, this is a bastard game!

Youtube video of the year, all years.
Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

How about a game where there is no mafia, but the town doesn't know that.  The only way they win is if the town lynch the mod?

Another nefarious idea I had involved a pair of masons. Secretly, one of the masons is a lyncher to the other mason. They're told this when day 3 starts.
I had the same idea, but better: both mafia and both masons would be lynchers to the respective partner.

Also: lyncher whose target is the above jester-reviver
