To clarify.
Mafia will randomly be assigned to a Neighbourhood.
(Like randomly chosen to be part of Water, Poison, Fire and Earth)
Same applies to Town.

This seems like a good overall design but needs a slight tweak of the knobs to not be townsided. 50:50 EV for nightless happens at 9:3, this setup gives town an additional townie and an additional clear over that.
Most of the powers can be counted as not being a balance concern, but the dead PT is purely town motivated because the dead PT can make sure not to vote in dead scum's interests and they get the equivalent of dayvigging to decide the game in LyLo where LyLo is usually a third or two fifths controlled by the mafia.
I think this would be good with an innocuous neighborhood added to bump it to 4:11 since 4 player scumteams historically do crazy things and that dead PT ability is similarly crazy.

2 things.

1) so you just think mafia should be buffed maybe?
2) Aren’t Open Games usually 13 Peeps.
