Spoiler: Thoughts on setup

- The idea of the setup is fairly simple, strong protectives and weak investigatives. It contains 2 doctors and 2 weak investigatives. Role Cop can detect 1 scum at minimum, and more if scum risks a fake-claim. The Follower-Voyeur can catch the scum doing the kill (if the ninja isn't used that night.) It can also help determine the setup, but will likely go awry with the mafia cop. Besides the doctor's gatedness, they aren't counterable by scum, which helps when the investigative roles aren't very effective at finding scum. I am willing on changing the setup but want to keep the general idea of double protectives + weak investigative.

Thank you in advance.

Oh one note - I think 1-shot activated ninja should just be 1-shot ninja? one-shot ninja generally gets to pick the night it activates. It's a little weird because it's a passive so yes, you should be able to "activate" it but I think that's the typical formalism.

And you're actually going straight into signups since the other one isn't ready yet!

(so thanks for getting this review done in advance!)
