here is the wiki page for this setup, kinda. the setup is functionally the same, except for powerups which scum receive. amendments to this setup are indicated by this nice colour below
This evening, we will be playing Pick Your Power X/Y but *gasp*, also I/M. This setup is complicated, and we are experimenting with a couple of juicy changes. If you have any questions, please slide into my DMs. I can also be reached via Discord as Tom#4827
.
Please read the below notes, and sample role PMs, carefully.
Roles
:
Win Conditions
:
Town
: You win if all threats to the town are eliminated and at least one town-aligned player is alive.
Mafia
: You win if at least one mafia member is alive and all other players are dead (or if nothing can prevent the same).
Simple, right?
Wrong!
Pre-game, a glorious battle will occur by way of private number drafts. The winners of this draft will then have an opportunity to pick their own power from eight groups. I will explain how the drafting process works here. the first heading will be the "differences between the PYPX/Y i know and love, and this monstrosity. the second heading will contain a more detailed explanation of the draft process.
differences between the PYPX/Y i know and love, and this monstrosity.
i'm glad you asked! the short shiny version is:
The draft process for town will play out exactly the same way.
During the first drafting phase, scum will chose between one of the below factional abilities.
This factional ability selection will be publicly revealed at the end of the first drafting phase.
factional ability choice is ONE OF:
multitasking
: the entire scumteam will become multitasking, meaning that they can carry out both the factional nightkill and any draft powers, in the same night phase.
informed
: at the end of the second draft phase, the scumteam will receive a piece of information about the draft. if there are any role pairings which were not taken during the draft, the scumteam will be informed of one of these pairings. if there are multiple, they will be informed of one at random. if all role pairings were taken during the draft, the scumteam will be informed of this.
ok...nevermind, explain the whole drafting process
Draft Phase One
:
Once alignments have been dealt out, each player must send a (whole) number back to the mod, with the lowest unique number winning the draft. Second place is awarded to the second lowest unique number and so on, until all unique numbers have been exhausted. Next placed on the list is the lowest doubled numbers, followed by the next lowest doubled numbers, and so on. Continue this same process for triples and quadruples.
In cases of multiple players selecting the same number, the higher placed between these players is chosen randomly.
Cool exciting new feature:
During the first setup phase, the mafia will collectively pick one factional power. They may either make their entire faction multitasking (i.e. they may use their draft powers alongside the factional nightkill), or gain a special piece of factional information. This piece of information is revealed to them at the end of the second drafting phase, and is "one pair of roles which was NOT selected during the draft phase". If multiple role pairs went unselected, this will be randomised. If all role pairs were selected, scum will be informed of this.
Resolution of Draft Phase One
:
The numbers selected, and the order of the draft, will be revealed publicly.
Cool exciting new feature:
At the same time, it will be confirmed whether scum selected to be multitasking or informed. The information that scum receive from the Informed modifier will never be made public.
An example of the ordinary draft resolution (without the Cool exciting new features) can be found on this setup's Wiki page.
Draft Phase Two
:
Once the draft order has been determined, each player PM's the moderator of the game with the role they'd like to be. cool clarifying note I'm stealing from davesaz:
Don't worry about submitting a pair of roles first, and then a specific role later. Just let me know during this phase exactly which role you'd like.
I will assign one power per pair, as players have selected. Priority will be given from the top (winner) of the draft. In essence, the winner of the draft is guaranteed to be non-vanilla.
Resolution of Draft Phase Two
:
I will send out new role PMs including powers won from the drafting process. Scum will have their PMs updated to reflect their factional power at this stage. The game will then begin after 48 hours or 11/14+ confirmations.
The role pairs
:
Only ONE ROLE PER PAIR can exist in the game.
Night 3 Vigilante OR Vengeful
1-shot Vigilante OR 1-shot PGO (active)
Cop OR 1-shot Redirector
1-shot Commuter OR 1-shot Watcher
Doctor OR Roleblocker
Universal Backup OR Role Cop
Neighborizer OR Fruit Vendor
Jailkeeper OR Tracker
