Worst role ideas?

[Sméagol]

vote absorber

The next vote you cast, will have the worth equal to the numbers of votes on you since the last vote you cast. For example, 3 people have voted for you since the last time you cast a vote: if you cast a vote now it will be a triple vote. At the start of a dayphase, your vote resets to 1 vote.

Mafia goon

vanilla townie

alternatively, be a lurksac, and slowly build up votes, while never voting for the one-shot on the next day.

I personally intended to reset it each day (I've edited my post), though I doubt it will matter much.

edit:

And I deliberately put it in the worst role ideas thread, though now I actually want to use it, haha.

The bus that couldn't slow down

You die night 1.
However, for each 50 posts you make, you earn yourself an extra day to live.

Computer illiterate vigilante

You just

barely

manage to visit this site on your computer.. However you have no idea how to PM the mod.
Each night, you may kill a target player, but you must send in your target using non-digital means. Actual mail, telephone (no cell phone, an old analogue one, you know, with the rotary dial), (singing) telegram, and in person are examples of acceptable methods.

Singing telegram it is then!

[Sméagol]

I was thinking of everything which used a streams of 0s and 1s. Telegrams don't do this (though callforjudgement has a valid point), so they count as far as I'm concerned. Then again, it is similar, so I'll leave it up to the mod. I'm not sure if you can actually use a phone nowadays without some digital processing, I don't think so. I forgot good old-fashioned radio though.

Town win condition enabler

When you die, every player loses his or her win condition.

Quantum anomaly

(alignment up to mod's discretion)

Whenever you die, or an ability is performed on you, the mod will open a new gamethread, with other people filling in for the existing slots.
The original gamethread will act as if the event that triggered the split, did happen, the new gamethread will act as if the event didn't happen.

The first gamethread to end, will be considered the actual reality, and all other gamethreads will converge into that one. Every player that filled the same slot as the one that has won in the game-ending gamethread, will have won as well.

Comment

I wish I could make this work.

Simply fix the alignments, and have a chance of having a role, then calculate chances and choose what action will happen?
You could play with a traitor actually, having a chance of being well, a traitor, or a vanilla townie (and/or something else).

Town's hero

In a game full of worst roles, you may roll a role from the Grand idea thread. Go easy on them.

Amnesiac townie

There's a 50% chance you're a vanilla townie.
There's a 50% chance you're a mafia traitor who doesn't know the real mafia members.
This is determined pre-game, and you'll only find out when you flip, or when the game ends (..or when a cop outs you).

Town night 5 motion detector

Edit:

Should be a worse role.

[Sméagol]

Technically I'm aware of that, but just imagine the face of someone receiving that role, then tell me it still doesn't belong here .

[Sméagol]

Alright fine, I'll edit the post later to make it something truly awful, and I'll put the current role in the Grand Idea thread .

[Sméagol]

I've edited my post.

I also propose instead of using vanillas (town / mafias / whatever), ascetics are used for posts that don't contain a role, like this one.

[Sméagol]

Look at my vote!

(alignment up to mod's discretion)
Whenever you vote, no players (including you) may post until the mod has posted a vote count directly after your post. Any posts that are posted regardless, should be deleted by the mod.

Town Hammer killer

You automatically kill the player who hammered a lynch (except a No lynch).

[Sméagol]

Neutral one shot at winning

1-shot kill/hammer

You can use your shot either to kill at night, or to cast a hammer vote (casting a hammer vote will use your shot automatically).

You win when you make the game ending kill.

Town 1-shot win condition reverser

Reverse the win condition for target player. This means that when you're succesful, they win by

not

fulfilling their original win condition.
