I wouldn't put in bulletproof as they'd turn into named townies, essentially. 3v10, there's encouragement to block the scum kill by vigging, potentially, too...
Current Losing Streak: 4 (record: 9)
Probable record holder for most games played on site before managing to win one!
It's completely trivial to avoid anyone dying from 2 vigs targetting the same person. E.g. just assign 6 players to be vigs and let them pick different targets. One of the vigs'll be prevented by the roleblock, but that's fine - you still got another 5 town-directed kills out of the bargain.
Scumchat is awesome. Yarr!

===================================================
AitP is famously broken; vent standard looks screwed-up to me (in particular, 7p nightstart 2:5 puts the town at mylo to
start with
, so they're obviously going to no-lynch to get another cop result, and they're probably going to do it as follow-the-cop because you didn't stop them; and even then, it's probably going to end up scumsided and mostly based on N0 luck).
Vent Standard is just a modified version of the epic mafia standard, which works well enough. Cops will pretty much always claim, NL occures, lots of things can happen in the meantime before 5man mylo. Only made the special if-nightkilled you can still talk rule because, well, it sucks.
@andrew I think he means by just not saying anything and randomly lynching, giving the assassin no info. Thats lame and wouldn't work.
Town's best strategy is for someone (a different person each day to stop the assassin making multiple attempts) to vote a random non-king player in their first post and everyone to sheep them, no discussion. The assassin's only method of winning is to correctly guess the king
and
beat everyone else to first post. Not sheeping or trying to discuss gets you instantly lynched, of course.
This is not a particularly fun strategy to play with.
It may be optimal play but I dont think a bunch of negative nellys are actually going to play the game that way when you're playing mafia for FUN, not soullessly and robotically to WIN.
My point is it works at a base level. And eh, I've played lots of interesting games with that setup. I just like how the dichotomy is so in-your-face. I like probing both cops and finding the liar. Anyway,
A simplified (and hopefully more balanced) version of The Experiment.
9x Townies, 3x Goons, 1x SK.
The SK is given seven points to spend from any of the four coloured banks. Any time he buys a power for the town, he gets that amount of coloured tokens to spend in his perks giftshop. Black coloured tokens are like wild cards and can be substituted for any colour. Some of the SK's powers that are bought give mafia a power too.
SK's giftshop:

I assume that cop immunity doesn't work against an FBI agent? Also, is the ninja/strongman kill both ninja and strongman, or SK's choice when making the kill, or SK's choice when purchasing it?
