If I'm reading this right: the root of the problem is that no one actually wants to play 1:n games?

Pretty much. The problem is that scum have no incentive to do anything but play like a townie. (Whereas in 2:n games and higher, scum are also concerned with trying to keep their scumbuddies alive, and optimal scum play ends up not identical to optimal town play as a result.)

If any town is lynched, Mafia win.
It's essentially LYLO on Day 1.

I'm well aware. Not LYLO in a 4p setup with 2 maf is impossible. I just wanted to be ridiculous and see if I could make a 2v2 work somehow.

Unforgivably Small Open
1 Mafia Goon
1 Double-Voting Townie

Actually, this makes me think of another, more reasonable 3p.

Neither of those are mafia, and this isn't the thread for joke setups. We have a MD thread somewhere for that.

That is hardly a joke setup.

It's not a setup, period.

Animor, I would have to believe that Whiskers was merely joking, and I'm sure did not mean to cause you all the trouble they clearly have. Animor what is your favorite role, and we'll ask Whiskers to make a setup for you with it included, as a way to make friends.

FINAL WE NEED A FIFTH
2 Townies
2 Mafia
Daystart, nightless. If a townie is lynched, he does not get lynched and is instead given a one-shot dayvig. This only occurs once.
If he shoots the other townie, town loses.
If he shoots mafia, it goes into a normal 1v2 game.
That sounds interesting. Though it might need to be tested in marathon next week.

Make it plurality at deadline then. And in case of a tie the first wagon to obtain the tieing number is lynched. "
Vote: No Lynch
" or anything other than a player of the game will not be counted as a valid vote.

Well, it has a 50% EV. I agree that you should test it in marathon first.

I think must lynch was implied, but not specifically stated. So yes, mustlynch.
