Then charge ahead and I'll back you up.
:o What do you mean?

Also, I'm not so sure about the random role being activated by the mayor or godfather giving up a life…:/
Couldn't it be that it's activated on the second day? ‘Cause I don’t think giving up a life is worth the risk of getting a good role…):

That is the point Crocty. The random role might not be worth it. The godfather and mayor have to decide if they want to risk hurting their chances of staying alive or see what they get.

And the townies can always harass the mayor until he activates the random role.

Basically, go ahead and do the comic and I'll help out when and if you need me.
God needed the Devil, the Beatles needed the Rolling Stones, Hakoshen needs me.
I'm the enemy he requires to define him.
Soon or later, he'll bring me back to life again for another epic encounter of shouting about power levels and grimacing.

Ah~
Although in retrospect, you'd probably do a better job.
I drew a page about Hark retiring and it's crappy beyond belief…):

When my turn comes, I'm trying a few things for the undead theme:
Vampyre - Godfather
Special abilities: Can cancel a burning, votes count twice like the mayor's (all votes will be private, so you won't know who voted for who), and once per game can convert a Villager into a Ghoul (Villager - Townie, Ghoul - Converted Townie)
Most of the rest is just name changes:

Professor - Vigilante (based on Abraham van Helsing)
He has the tools and the know how to kill the undead.

Medium - Detective
He can commune with the spirits to find out the basic Detective stuff.

Ripper - Serial Killer
Jack anyone?

Looking for new special roles though.
Witchdoctor - He can turn one Villager into a Zombie. The zombie will kill whoever the witchdoctor decides. All clues of the witchdoctor's/zombie's kill will point to the zombie. The witchdoctor can only have one zombie at a time. He can not zombify the Mayor or Pardoner. When a zombie dies he may choose another. Should the witchdoctor die the zombie will be freed. The zombie will only know that he is the zombie, he will not be told the identities of the witchdoctor or any of the Nosferatu. The witchdoctor will not be told of any extra roles the zombie may have.

A bit complicated, but I kind of like it. What do you all think of the witchdoctor/zombie roles?

Well here is my problem. I tried to impliment an in game penalty for inactivity. But the problem is, one of the inactive people was the bomber. If I had penalized him, that would have wiped out two townies. Thusly, that would aid the mafia…so I didn't know what to do in that situation.

You could've made it so that another random member of the mafia sets off the bombs…
Although if Nersop did plant his bombs, then he would be active?…

But I dunno, it would be unfair on the mafia to just have the bombs not do anything, and unfair on the townies to have them instantly killed…

Right but he didn't do anything else. He never voted from the start of the game. And I didn't want to count night actions as activity because of some reasoning that probably I only understand…I'll try

Now if I made a night action part of activity, anyone keeping track of the votes can say. Hey! This person never voted, but he hasn't been bumped. He must have a night role.

I realize now that people were not paying that much attention. -.- So I wasted time on that one.

): It's unfair when a mafioso is inactive.

Not that it affected our pure, unadulterate winness.

Townies are about to curse me for this, but I did suggest to Ochi and Niccea in IRC to boost the mafia numbers a bit. In about 15 games I've seen I have never seen a mafia win, seen a serial killer win (yay BK!), but never mafia. So I suggested making things harder for the town and increasing the mafia numbers.

thats why i am asking people to vote on it. I have a feeling people aren't reading the post which is a shame because there are some big changes to the characters. But yea if people want 48/24 thats fine.
I personally want the 48/24 system cause when most people who participate this game are offline, then I'm online and vice versa(Stupid Gmt). So like it is now, it helps me personally keeping track of what is happening, clue solving and decicion making.

I had an idea, like weeks ago, if there woudl be made a Townies vs. Vampires vs. Werwolfes thing, where the vigilante role would obviusly bee divided between 3-4 people where that would be a priest or an vampire ‘only’ hunter,werewolf slayer(here wolfey XD) and an occult slayer who would slay both, but obviusly it would require more planing and more people would have to participate…

I've got a thread on the drunk duck mafia forum for roles.

'there is no “overkill” there is only “open fire” and “time to reload” rule #37
the things on my box are a dead squirell, a medal and a paper bag hat.
ow! I have shards of the fourth wall in my eye!

I agree. I say all games should run on GMT aka Zulu time. Except for mine, which will be on central standard +6 hours.
God needed the Devil, the Beatles needed the Rolling Stones, Hakoshen needs me.
I'm the enemy he requires to define him.
Soon or later, he'll bring me back to life again for another epic encounter of shouting about power levels and grimacing.

Why thank you for your flexibility. But I do agree that everything should be on the same time zone.

I can't keep GMT straight, or any other time zone not my own. So I just use mine.
Of which, I'm not even 100% sure of what time zone I'm even in.
But I know it is 10:07 right now.
Even though I'm not playing now, I still call game 6.

Edit: Make that game 5, woot woot!
