Micc's micro normal review, May 2020

[Micc]

Finally graduating to designing my own normal setups isn’t this cool?

I’ll copy the setup over when I get to my laptop.

Mafia Multitasking Roleblocker
Mafia Goon

Started with a Loyal Fruit Vendor as a pseudo cop role that I hope will be both interesting and challenging to play optimally. The Tracker is a powerful investigative role in its own right, but it can also compliment the Loyal Fruit Vendor by verifying if a visit occurred or was interfered with. Mafia are given a Roleblocker as a flexible check against both town power roles.

I don’t think I agree with respect to Cop+Tracker vs RB being scumsided. When was that played or discussed? Cop+Doc vs RB comes in at slightly townsided in the Matrix6 data and that’s less town power than Cop+Tracker vs RB.

I can buy that I’m leaning scumsided here with the inherent uncertainty of a loyal fruit vendor result, but I’m not following your comparison.

Tracker+JK vs RB from NewD3 is probably the best comparison, and yeah my Fruit Vendor is probably weaker than a jail keeper, but I’m not sure it’s by a lot, and I think that setup probably runs slightly Townsided anyway?

[Micc]

purpose of the roleblocker is really to check an early mass claim. moving the roleblocker to one-shot still accomplishes that goal so I think its the best solution. mafia can freely shoot any individual PR claim. they don't necessarily know that, but I think it can be worked out based on a lack of overall power in the scum team.

there's not any normalcy issues with a double modifier right?
is Mafia Multitasking One-Shot Roleblocker the way to go with respect to naming convention?
