Normally you aren't allowed to do anything veritably random in these.

So anyways the one thing that is interesting about the setup is we could disclose how much we explored. At first I thought this favoured mafia as it would let them know who has the most money/power role. BUT the better power roles are found by exploring so it could save our weak PRs at the cost of ones that could be stronger later. I don't know, food for thought.

I think it does help mafia in this way, but remember that they can only kill one person a night, and it is likely that we will all eventually get some powers. And we could get around this by not saying what we bought, just what we see. This still helps them with pillage, and they can guess, "oh, if they've been to the gold room I bet they bought something good, let's kill them", but it isn't nearly as strong.

How do you know how many deaths can be caused?  I'm guessing there are vig-style cards available for purchase, so there's no guarantee on one death.  Scum slip.

okay, what? I said THEY can only kill on person a night. they means scum, as was clear in my post. there is only one scumteam, as confirmed by mod. I don't know about vig powers, but I wouldn't if I was scum either would I? I was reffering to the fact that the mafia can only kill one potential person with a PR a night, and there is likely to be many people with PRs.

I think so too.  A little bit of FoS to ashersky (but I know it could be trying to see how he would respond).

Role PM of the Mountebanks is public knowledge; only one faction kill. And it's clear form the context of his post that vig-style cards weren't being considered. I doubt any are gonna be available this early in the game either.

I think the map-claim idea is possibly decent. Obviously not claiming what items we have available, but perhaps if we each gave a description of what we can see. Anyone have any reasons why this would be a bad idea?

I thought of something!

anyone who ever purchases a key should immediately claim that they did so. They can then become an IC by someone entering a room of that type at a discounted price, and it doesn't help scum at all to claim this. actually, they don't quite become IC, because both the claimed key purchaser and the claimed room enterer could be scum, but they could both be outed by a townie not getting the discounted price. the info that player X bought a key hardly helps scum at all.
