Few things so far from this.
Detective role described is a role cop by normal standards
Citizens also are called VTs.

As far as balance this is a little town sided with 2 Mason and tracker with another person who can confirm their role.

Can Mafia talk with each other at all times?

In post 2, Dierfire wrote:Hello everyone,

I'll say up front that I'm prepared to sacrifice my personal preferences for role names if Vanilla Town and Role Cop would cause less confusion than Citizen and Detective.

I will also be adding a rule that the Mafia PT will be shared at the end of the game, with redactions permitted. This notification, like the notification about the nonstandard phase lengths, will be posted in the queue when enrollment begins.

EDIT: Ha ha, I knew that the role names would be a problem!
Yeah your going to have to change the names on those.

The rule on Mafia PT is fine.

The setup looks fine to me. The only issue I see is that backup tracker essentially confirms the first tracker and it's essentially a mason pair without a PT.

I was thinking how would this change game with universal backup, but I think that causes more problems.

I would say this is slight town favored as I said before.
I'll let cephrir chime in with a few thoughts.

In post 6, Dierfire wrote:Detective to Role Cop I will change without hesitation. Vanilla Town causes me great anguish. Which of the listed variations in the Wiki are permitted?
You can call it Citizen instead if you want.
That is permitted.

Just make sure the sample citizen pm is in opening post

Ehh BG is pretty weak role, I do think that would make the game more neutral in terms of balance.
I don't think its a bad thing this is townsided though If you make the Masons to only have night chat, I do think that would even things out.

Masons with constant chat can be really useful for them to bounce ideas of each other and can be deadly for scum team.

If you decide to change the Tracker to Bodyguard, I would keep the day chat for the masons though.

I think id approve either of those if you make those changes.

Either take out mason chat in game if you want to keep tracker or
Change Tracker to Bodyguard and Backup Tracker to Backup Bodyguard

Those are my thoughts on it.

Approved


I don't see any other changes necessary.

I have actually seen this done in open setups.

That should probably be taken out since it isn't a normal mechanic.
