Xtoxm: somehow it's different. Isn't doubleheading where both people play under the same name? Everyone plays under their own account.

What if you take a simple 12 player setup (basic 12 player, etc.) and made it so that each role was played by 2 people. Everyone knew who the pairs were, and each pair of players shared a vote, role, and were lynched/killed together. The pairs could talk anytime they wanted to, but mafia (or masons) would talk at night like usual.

I'd call it "Siamese Twin Mafia". Ask if you have any confusions,

Well let me educate you.

I played a similar version of that, but quite different. It was also a 12 player setup, with 3 cop pairs, 1 vig pair, and 1 doc pairs. The remaining 2 were doublevoters + masons. There were 3 mafia. We didn't know that it was a setup like this though, except for ourself, and we didn't share a vote, nor lynch/kill together. Basically, either of us could send in a target for our action; the action would only be made if both people targeted the same person.

Problem was, the 3 scum were in different power pairs. They were in 2 of the cop pairs, and in the vig pair. There was also no reason in the role to suspect that our ally was scum.

It really has nothing to do with this, but I'm still annoyed about the unfairness of that game.
I lost the game.

Chenhsi, for the last time, that set-up was not broken:
iLord wrote:There were 12 pairs - of course at least one person had to have a scum mason, unless I was forcing the mafia to be screwed with having to claim their partner when the town claimed theirs.

Scum winning Night 2 was because of a weak town, and an easily swayed vig.

Generally, both townmasons should have submitted the same target. This actually increased the power of those roles because they had "two lives."

The only control the scum had over the power roles is how skilled they were at convincing the other mason. If they submitted a different action and nullified the power, they should've been under instant suspicion.

Unfortunately, the town played pretty messily (some people didn't even claim their list before being lynched), messing up night actions and the such, and the scum were able to easily win, explaining your skewed opinion of the set-up.

That is all.
I would prein for this if it was closer... and as long as I could make the role like the character.
Mostly retired. Unless you ask or it's something interesting.

I'm working my way through the queues so i can finally do my great idea(s):

Star Control II Mafia(s)!

I'm hoping to run a couple minis, a normal and a large with tied in flavor and a few unique mechanics.

I haven't seen anything about it on here so I'd thought i'd give a litmus test.

I always lynch scum... sometimes they're just not mafia. :P

Key Party Mafia


Takes place at a motel in the middle of nowhere. A group of couples have gathered for a week of fun and games (orgies and partner swaps). Days take place in the lobby. Nights take place in rooms that people have drawn keys for.

Rooms with two people may night talk. Most likely ~half the people end up in the orgy room and are too "busy" to talk.

Not to copy you, but that actually sounds pretty cool.

Some Ideas I've been throwing around.

Stock Market Mafia!


Complete with bidding money on players instead of votes!

Berserk Mafia


You can turn Berserk for greater power - but at what cost?

The bidding system is similar.

The role and mechanics would be different.
