It was a parody on being a jester, not re: Danny Kaye. :P

You're the PS3, and no one loves you. Should someone say the name of any other next-gen console, you die. You win with the town.

Hate to bring politics into it.... but...

You are
Ron Paul
. If this game is being played online, the first person to vote for you each day will be shouted down by your thousands of internet fans; their vote will not count for that day, even if they change it. If this game is being played in meatspace, you may not speak as everyone will ignore you anyway. You win when you are are the last candidate standing.

You are
No Thumbs Person
. You have no thumbs, which makes it hard to tie knots, handle rope and pull the trigger on the .38 caliber gun you carry. You may vote, but any person you are voting for will need an additional vote to be lynched. If your vote would normally be "the hammer", the day will end with No-Lynch while everyone fusses with the rope and the sun sets.

You win with the town.

You are
lame
. I hope they lynch you, loser.
Join me on my quest to play every NES game! Some of them are awful.

Kuribo's read is foolproof: one night he was high on NyQuil, and he's ancestors reveiled Aureal's alignment to him. - Dessew

You're the butt of every joke.

Whos butt? YOUR MOM'S!

You win if nobody uses a "your mom" joke. If someone does use one, you must answer promptly with "Ur Face!" or you will be modkilled.

Hrm...

You are the
CSI Medical Examiner
. Whenever someone dies in the town, you're the one who does the autopsy and gives everyone the result.

Town Variation: As long as you are alive, every dead body will be listed with the owner's alignment and the alignment of whoever killed him. If you are dead, this information will not be given.

Mafia Variation: If you are not used to make the Mafia's kill, anyone killed until the next night phase will be revealed to be of Town alignment. When you are killed, the town will find proof that you forged the autopsy results and be told which of the dead players were not Town.

You are a
Republican Senator
. Congratulations you have successfully obstructed more legislation in one year than any other session of Congress has in it's full two year term. If your vote is ever part of a lynch that goes through you will be mod-killed. You win if the town No Lynch's on any given day.

You are
Boardwalk with four houses and a hotel
. Your rent is insanely high and often forces people into bankruptcy. The first time you are lynched, everyone who voted for you loses their vote the next day and you are not killed. You may communicate with Park Place during the night.

You are the
animal
. Every night you fall asleep and are unaffected by night kills. You win with the town.

Mod Note: Every night, the animal automatically kills a random person, stated the next day as being someone "mysterious". The townies all have a small statement at the end of their role PMs saying something about watching out for the animal, as well as a randomly chosen name. This randomly chosen name will be the person that dies "randomly", depending on the order of the players. In this case, whoever is player 1 will recieve a name of someone who will die on Night 1, and the last player on the list will have the name of the animal instead. If the animal's target of the night dies or is protected, he'll skip over them and target the next player. Despite this, he is in fact town, but can achieve an independent victory if he's the sole survivor.
Monday: I went drinking with the Poles.
Tuesday: I think I'm going to die.
Wednesday: I went drinking with the Poles again.
Thursday: Why the hell didn't I die on Tuesday?

You are a Copycat. Each night you may send me the name of a player and you will be told their power. Then you may re-send me a name of who to use the power on. They will remain unknown about the Copying. You win when all threats to the town have been eliminated.

I'm tempted to respond with a not-nice role about Democrats, but I prefer to keep my politics in my pants.

Instead:

Congratulations! You are
Scuzzy
. That little ball/cat thing that Hexedecimal owns. You can't really do much. (You have no night actions, and are not allowed to vote. You're only allowed to speak in a computer language of your choice, that you have to clear with the mod first.) You win when you avoid being turned into a null by either one of Hex's insane moodswings, a game cube, or Megabyte.

The Editor


You are able to edit any post in the thread, other than the moderator's. You can change votes, delete posts, ect... You are modkilled if any player posts something to the effect of "fuck it, why don't you just write all of my posts for me". You win with the town.

Here's one that I used in a power-heavy game:

You are the
VooDoo Queen
. Each night, you may pick two targets: One live, one dead. If the dead target has a night power, you will use it on the living target. You won't be told what the power is; you'll have to figure it out from what happens. Oh, but you can only use each dead person once.
