Yep, I'd love to play.

Also I would recommend making explicit that night actions are processed in the order listed in the OP, so for example the Jailer who target the Roleblocker makes the RB fail, and if the SK targets the Scum nightkiller, the Scum kill fals to happen.

Eh, but SK goes subsequent to Town, so that if a victim dies in the night despite the Doc/Jailer getting a "successful" night result, that power role can know it was an SK kill.

Another question worth getting answered up front... will you take replacements? Will you modkill for inactivity?

I recommend explicitly declaring that you won't replace or modkill, in hopes that only people willing to solidly commit will sign up. Replacement issues marred Podima's game, but later on, the decision of not replacing or modkilling TheCog after he went inactive lead to some pretty interesting action and strategic play. Any modkill pretty much destroys this setup.

As the OP says, I am reserving the right to modkill at my own discretion. I might put in a blurb about replacements being only a last resort option though, since emergencies and other weird things do happen.

If someone wants to replace out during the game though, even if the OP says I won't do it, they still have the option of just not playing. It is, unfortunately, a self-policing thing because even if I modkill them it just gives them what they want. We'll see what happens.
Yeah, I'm just making the point that the option of "just not playing" or "being forced to post like a lurker because of unforeseeable events", or pretending so because you're Scum, are valid things to happen and letting it happen is better for the game than to replace or modkill. The game provides ways of eliminating people who do these things, and it's a feature, not a bug.

Especially the practice of replacement, it's totally corrosive in subtle ways. When it's an option, there's less commitment. Also, a Scum needs to be able to demoralize and intimidate and bait people into looking Scummy, and it's not fair to Scum if someone can just replace out after being galled into a tantrum and be replaced with a set of fresh eyes that can look at the thread objectively and easily dodge a mislynch. The mind game is all part of the fun.

Just my soapbox opinion, I should take it to the discussion thread because this is your game :D I think you'll do great.

Confirming.
Let's see if this setup can indeed be broken with a massclaim.
Step 1 is to claim POWER or BACKUP.

Lumpen claims POWER

This game was to be the designated testing ground of the massclaimbreaksgame theory of King Burgundy's from before it started.

I feel this setup is so masterfully designed and exquisitely balanced that a D1 massclaim does not significantly disrupt the outcome.

To test this, the orthodox strategy at this point is for everyone to claim Power or Backup. The Scum and SK should claim Backup. Then we lynch the most suspicious of the Backup claimers, and the nightkills will target among the 5 Power claims, but the Doc has a better chance of a successful protect, and the BP Miller also has a better chance to absorb a kill. The Jailer and Tracker and Cop are all better targeted toward the Backups claimers, and it makes the Tracker become closer to a Cop.

Any successful nightkills of the Cop, Doc, Jailer, or Tracker will just be replaced with only the loss of one night's result knowledge. On D2+ after thus sort of massclaim the pool of Backup claimers up for lynch is complicated by the fact that they may claim or fakeclaim the inherited roles, but this becomes more dangerous because roles are only inherited once and they can not just claim "Power" without having their specific role revealed.

So yeah, I think we should try the massclaim route, it should NOT break the game.

This setup has already been run a few times with later-game massclaims. This setup will always have a massclaim at some point, and the Scum will always be put under major pressure and forced to pull off some ballsy lying in order to win, just when it looks inevitable. That's part of what makes the setup exciting. The interesting controvery that popped up in the last game was whether the game could be broken by a D1 massclaim, and several of us came into this interested in finding out.

You should check out Podima's recent Battlestar Galactica game, especially the Scumdoc, if you haven't.

Uh, not really. I am a bit confused. First you want a massclaim, and I understood what your logic behind it was, though I don't think you really considered how it would be harmful to town. But it seems like you are just willing to believe the jailor claim, even without questioning it. Rage answering is a null read for the most part. Lastly, why would you ask someone to breadcrumb more information. That is probably even worse than just claiming.

##vote lumpen

Yes you do indeed seem quite confused. If KK is lying, then someone else is the real Jailer (maybe even me!) and I am saying that for them to coubterclaim KK would not be wise in my opinion. Breadcrumbs are a good idea for winning a counterclaim battle later in the game, and (later) for Powers embedding results in hopes they can be usefully found and decoded for info after the breadcrumber dies and flips.

I want a massclaim only because I designed this setup and I've seen it run through twice and I think it can't be broken by a massclaim but I wanted to prove it. Its an experiment. I think the setup is balanced to tolerate a D1 massclaim, but still if not for the experiment I think it is slightly more advantageous to massclaim later (usually around D3), depending on the state of the game. I explained how it is probably just as beneficial to Town as it is potentially harmful.

If KK is really the Jailer that would be a harmful claim for Town, I think. Still not disastrous, because this setup can tolerate dumb crazy ballsy things and wills still come down to a dramatic nail-biting conclusion!

If there are less than 6 claims of Powers today, we should take any Power claimers off the table for lynch today. If we get 10 or 11 claims of Powers, then that would trigger a fullclaim and we'd start thunderdoming the paired counterclaimants.

No, mass claiming shows a clear lack of thought.
I think that you are being disingenuous, but trust me, you have not thought more about this setup than I have. We are testing the massclaim hypothesis this time. It does not break the game, it does not strongly benefit any side. If all Townies truthfully softclaim, and the Scum all claim Backup, things are neutral. If any Scum claim Powers, Town benefits. The SK may benefit from falsely softclaiming Power, in this scenario because of the specifics of how roles interact with the SK.

Jon Irenicus posted:

I wanted to ask a few question or two to Lumpen (or anything staunchly pro-claim).

What are the benefits to softclaiming roles as compared to fully claiming? Will Power need to claim Day 2 for night actions?
In my opinion, the BEST way to do this setup is for everyone to shut up about roles for the first day. This setup gives very strong incentive to massclaim eventually. The ideal time to massclaim is after a few nights when the power roles have some useful night info, because the setup also has several pieces that strongly reward the combining of knowledge, because most night action info is of limited use on its own.

However, in the last Nailbiter it was suggested that a D1 massclaim breaks the game (in favor of Town) and I disagree. It was sort of agreed by several people that we'd test it out and see in the next Nailbiter. If anything, a massclaim D1 in this setup would make a Scum win impossible. Kashuno acting like it is Town suicide is very suspicious. KK (and now Amoeba) getting all huffy and acting like it's an insult to Mafia is also pretty suspicious.

This setup gives Scum little wiggle room for fakeclaims. In both previous Nailbiters, the Scum seemed to be on the verge of certain victory but in the end got exposed and defeated largely by botching their navigation of the fakeclaim space.

There are positives and negatives to claiming at any time, including a D1 massclaim. I contend that I succeeded at my goal of designing this setup to deliver an exciting and close contest regardless. A massclaim D1 is a valid and not inherently unbalanced scenario, I believe. Several of us have been hoping to test that hypothesis.

One thing I will say though, in this setup, once the ball is rolling on softclaims, I agree with King Burgundy that it is in Town's best interest to make the most of it by going all in. Leaving additional ambiguity and uncertainty in the gamespace is something Scum can exploit. They benefit most by having only one or two claims at a time because they have a single nightkill. Town Powers also benefit from the softclaimspace being clearly delineated as well, once it starts getting staked out.

Fullclaiming vs softclaiming provides little or no additional benefit to Town, but huge benefit to Scum and SK. The reasons should be obvious. Fullclaiming happens later when there's night action info. Actually fullclaiming probably still doesn't break the game because the role interactions have so much headfaking and WIFOM possibilities. I think if we are going to trg a D1 massclaim, Town gets most of the benefit by softclaiming first though. If the Scum all claim Power, then yeah fullclaims happen.

to expand on it, it's not the case that being yea/nay on a mass claim is going to produce any meaningful read on a player. I am town and nay on a massclaim, and I'm sure there are town that are yea on a massclaim. It's distraction from actual mafia playing, and it doesn't give us useful information to work with.

I'll respond to this as if you are Town and being sincere.
It in no way makes the game moot AT ALL. There is a ton of strategy and permutations and intricate interactions and headfakes and WIFOMing embedded deep deep beyond where even a D1 massclaim can go. The Versatile Backup mechanic is key. The setup is highly resistant to being "made moot". Look at the end of the BSG Nailbiter game. The Scumdoc is probably the best way.

Now if the Jailer flips, you are toast. I don't think you were thinking this through all the way.

In any Mafia game wouldn't claiming a power role and not being counterclaimed pretty much make you "immune from the lynch"? The same incentives are at play here. Nobody asked you to fullclaim. It strikes me as an unwise move whether you are telling the truth or not. If you are truthful though, at least you have less power to gently caress up the game than you would in a game without Versatile Backups.

I'd been happy, and I was happy still. For all to be accomplished,
for me to feel less lonely,
all that remained to hope
was that on the day of my execution
there should be a huge crowd of spectators and that they should
greet me with howls of execration.

A Thunderdome between claimed BP Millers is pretty ideal for D1.

It is the only Power that doesn't get inherited anyway. If we lynch the non-Town, then we have a Confirmed Town who is a pain in the rear end to get rid of for the Scum or the SK.

I'll put my money on the breadcrumbs.

Ok I suppose the Millers claims can simmer.
