You win if no one calls for your removal from the game, and no one bitches about hydras. In any thread, anywhere on the forum.
Worst role ideas?

You arethe man who knows too much.
The mafia members in this game are XXX, YYY and ZZZ. The mafia has a one-shot factional X-kill ability that can be immediately activated at any time, even twilight. The mafia has also received a copy of your role PM.
You immediately lose if you are targetted by the X-kill. Otherwise, you win if all mafia members are dead.

I'd have the loss condition "You lose if you cannot find 2 more people to join your hydra within 24 hours".-

@Leafsnail: Huh, that role isn't obviously broken. Good setup design triumphs over easily abusable post restrictions!
I guess the best method of playing is to lurk for a while, preferably breadcrumbing the scum members in a way that won't be noticed until your flip leads people to look for clues, in case you get lynched. Eventually, scum are likely to one-shot kill the wrong person.
Alternatively, arrange to get nightkilled, but that could be quite awkward.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town-

I believe a very similar role has been used. Let me see.
Here we go: Fate's role in Mostly Mountainous Mafia. Well, bastardly different in that the Mafia were told Fate was a fellow Mafia.
The implementation was not well received by the scum.-

Except once you're lynched, you're dead, so the scum can no longer kill you.
At least according to standard rules, no?"SAULRES you are THE man! Fav mod eva, no contest!" - Bert; "Saulres is a fantastic mod, if he is running a game everyone needs to join it." - FuDuzn

You areThe Failed Inquisitor
You are a mafiaoso, who was determined to go solo, but failed miserably.
Without technical skills, you are forced to carry out the night kills.
However, people seem to get along with you and your hard life: That is, if they aren't dead.
Thus anyone you fail at night-killing is immediately put in a neighborhood with you, unknown to the mafia.
If the amount of people who can help you( In your neighborhood) is greater then your fellow mafiaoso's, you go turncoat, become an inquisitor, and all in the neighborhood gain your win condition as the inquisitor.
If you target someone who is mafia after you go rogue with your kill, you and your followers die, and another mafiaoso takes your role. (Kill is in addition to night actions they have or do not have)
However, your determination to be better means any role that would redirect the kill off your target fails, the target does not die, and is recruited into your PM.
You win with the mafia.
