On the topic of Pick Your Poison, during my recently completed game one of the players pointed out that of the three times it had been run, the scum had never picked cop; it was always doc/RB. Is there some way we can force scum to give town something more helpful?

I like those, though I think I can pick out which ones will take the place of doc/RB. But making town give scum a PR is good. Not that it matters much, but do scum know who gets their power role?

Ah, so town doesn't know who gets them either. Interesting...

I'd run it again. A+ (unless Patrick says no, in which case you get a C).

Scum PGO? With a vig possibility? Interesting gambits ensue.

But I think a 1-shot Janitor wouldn't hurt balance. Allows scum a safe fakeclaim (provided you don't derp around and use it on a claimed PR).

But scum get to deliberate...

Is there any way you could make a mafia-sided version of one of the town roles (like Doctor)?

That's an interesting idea. I'd run it as an experiment.
