Hey guys. It's a mountainous game, unless you think it'd be better with some simple roles. Should make review pretty straightforward.

Since when? Eh, doesn't matter. I was gone for a while, must have missed that.

Cop and Doc vs Roleblocker then?

Rolelocker is meant to counter follow the cop.

Hence why I initially wanted a Godfather. Follow the Cop also falls apart if Doc is killed.

I could come up with a completely alternate setup, if you're not into mountainous or near-mountainous

Bump?

How does Cop, Jailkeeper, 8x VT vs Ascetic, Goon, Goon strike you?

Also, I'm feeling a little overwhelmed with my current game list. Some of them are rather high-intensity. I'll probably need to hold off until I die a bit.

Maybe give scum a 2-shot rolecop or watcher? All three are 1-shot Trackers? I don't want to leave them entirely without recourse

The notion behind 3x 1-shot Trackers would be that it encourages some tactical thinking on their part. They can blow their wad all at once, and get three Townies confirmed or denied as PRs, or they can save them up for better chances later, or spread them out over time.

1-shot Tracker is about as weak a PR as you get, TBH.

This is the setup I'm looking at now:

Cop, Jailkeeper, 1-shot Bulletproof, 7x VT
vs
1-shot Tracker, 1-shot Tracker, 1-shot Tracker, daytalk

It's not the mountainous setup I was initially thinking of, but it looks balanced to me.

Randomized role distribution from Random.org. Whatever official playerlist Nexus generates will be mapped to this. If Keyser's list in the Normal queue matches the official list, that'd give us a scumteam of Gamma, Gerry, and JarJar, Town PRs would be Rautherdir, Vifam, and mattblackguy.

1 VT
2 VT
3 Goon
4 VT
5 Cop
6 Goon
7 Goon
8 VT
9 VT
10 VT
11 VT
12 Jailkeeper
13 1-shot Bulletproof Townie

Hello reviewers! The Deathtrap has been defeated, with almost half of the subjects surviving to live out the rest of their days.

Go read the endgame, you each have a cameo role!
