Yeah might have to count on the Seer not wanting to reveal just because they know what set we're using.

Do people like the Vampire role where he can only recruit on a night where there has been an explicit role reveal/claim? Discourages role reveals.
That's a very interesting idea. I mean, as long as it's a straight claim, and well, the more that claim, the more that they should be allowed to recurit.

Reminds me a bit about Lord Voldemort in a way. Except in this case, everytime you reveal, the Vamp gets more opportunities to recruit. I'd even remove the limit in that case.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a true claim - or else the Vamp would basically get a mini seer - but would require someone to say something that explicitly links them to a role (I wouldn't be able to require specific wording or people would loophole it). Even stops flogs revealing. There's already a reluctance to reveal while Vamps are alive, but this would strengthen it.

Yeah, that's true. Information is very important after all, but you have to be wise about it! Claim a role, true or not, and you'll allow evil to get stronger!

We need to get the people to think and make decisions based on what they have seen.

Keeping in mind that the role set might not even give Vamps that condition - I certainly wouldn't announce in the write up if someone had been converted - so would keep people guessing and being hesitant until the Role Set was known.

Oho, now that is some tricky dicky stuff alright.

Just when you think you've got it figured out, something comes to ruin that theory.

So, everyone knows what the three sets do, but you won't tell anything that will give the game away! Makes sense at the very least. I mean, the village is going to be aware that someone is dead, they wouldn't know that one of their members has been converted. Yeah, I can dig that, keeps everyone on their toes.

Yep, the OP will contain Roles A, Roles B, and Roles C. I'll then randomly generate which set I use, then everything runs same as usual, but no one knows which set has been selected until they figure it out.

Risk is that it could be figured out N1 when someone dies haha but the hope is that it at least survives until D3/N4 before being worked out.

Wait... this isn't something that BRAB made up? It's legit? (You know what I'm talking about, since its in our match thread.)
yeah 100% legit. that game BRAB posted was just a copy and paste job of a game RodneyDangerfield and I ran not long ago ha ha.

Bet on Blue
i first saw the role on one of our richmond board games.
so basically someone has the role of the arsonist.
each night they can chose someone to douse in petrol, that player gets notified after the night phase e.g " you have been doused in petrol by the arsonist. you could be blown up at any time"

the arsonist has 1 match to use at any night phase he wishes. once the match is struck, anyone who has been doused by petrol in previous nights is killed. night immunity does NOT protect this.

yeah that's the one!
yeah loved that one.

cant remember it exactly, was a while ago now.

it was based around the flogs. this might not be exact but it was something like: they could either make 1 kill every 2nd night or they could chose to not make a kill for 4 nights and as long as at least 2 of them were still alive by the 5th night, they could then make 5 kills.

WWII I think it was with the Manhattan Project. I wasn't playing then but I read through it.

yeah thats the one, manhattan project.

loved that role.

im a big believer that the flogs need to have some kind of role / objective in games. otherwise its too easy for them to just come out and claim being flogs on day 1 and coast through.

That is one sadistic game of Seinfield.
