How about a mafia variant where scum is the informed majority and town is the uninformed minority, but instead of requiring town to lynch all the scum, scum have to achieve an

alternative

wincon?

I don't really know a good title for this, but it's inspired by Inkmasters:

Mafia does not get a factional kill. Lynches are calculated by majority of active votes. Plurality lynching in effect.

Day play goes normally (considered the challenge phase). After the lynch, the game enters elimination phase.

If the day ends in a mislynch, mafia nominates two players for elimination. The mod posts the two names in the game thread and town PM's their selection to the mod. The player chosen most dies.

If the day ends in a mafia lynch, town nominates the two players instead. The mod posts the two names in the thread and mafia collaborate on who to choose.

All members of town MUST submit their choices or lose their vote the following day.

Nope. Nothing like that.

Nightless with mafia factional day kill.

Save tons of time.

so, this breaks probably more than one rule but how possible is it to have two instances of the same game?

there's a catch. everyone is game #2 isn't given a role, they're given a player from game #1 and have to guess the alignment of everyone including themselves. no flips. only player names.

i can work out how scum would kill at night but i have no idea how scum from game 2 would have a chance at winning. also, i'm sure game 1 would be derailed constantly by everyone attempting to screw with game 2. it would be a trainwreck, but a glorious one.

It doesn't break any rules as long as the games are designed to have communication about each other.
