I suggested 2 VT + town doublevoter + 2 Goon, nightless. I don't think it's as good as Vengeful, but it's still reasonably balanced and has no obvious glaring flaws, so it may do for an "alternative" 5P setup.

EV is 1/2, basically because the setup is symmetrical.

Vi's complaint is a valid one, though.

@Vi: I'm not convinced the dictator variant plays at all the same. Sure, the other players can't lynch anyone without the dictator's vote; but the dictator also can't lynch anyone without the other players' votes. So it's pretty much a case of everyone having a lot of power over the lynch vote, with one confirmed townie.
