My first game onsite had two town ascetics, one town one mafia is fine and actually disincentivizes claiming it as mafia if they get beat to it.
The town ascetic is going to claim 100 percent of the time though, right?
Mailman is going to also out like 100 percent of the time.
YOUR AD HERE
Too busy with work to play mafia right now but I shall return some day!
I could see it pairing nicely with something like a 1-shot friendly neighbor maybe?

Town mailman is a role that depends on the strength of its user. It isn't useless though even without further role mechanics. Consider, for instance, that you can send someone breads on the night you die.

I thought 54 was +town for Dwlee. Eagerly and visibly flagging yourself walking right back into the same pitfall is not the most obvious scumplay to see.

it seems to me like a lot of closed setups have at least one role that on some level is "the mods messing with players who try to setup spec"
Possible. It seems like a mod trap either way really. If it's not an intentional wild goose chase or red herring, then it's punishing scum for standard play, right? I guess that's why I find myself searching for a third explanation.

Correct, and this could be a built-in "feature" or could be amplified by some degree of Informed. There might in fact not be a second ascetic at all.

Yeah you're right
