I have a gimmicky idea for a minigame next time we decide to start one.
3 Goons (daytalk)
4 Townies
1 Town Vig Switch
1 Town 1-Shot Vig
The goons know who the two non-townies are, but not who is which. Neither the Vig Switch nor the 1-Shot Vig know they are those roles, and the Vig only gains the shot when the Vig Switch dies. The mafia get a one-shot kill that can be used anytime after D2, but not in LyLo.
The game is nightless.[/quote]
since there's no way to know which one is the vig and which one is the switch that mechanic is not gimmicky, it's just completely random
here is how this game will go:
both non-townies claim immediately, and they are confirmed since no scum will fakeclaim (if 1 scum fakeclaims, he has 1/3 chance of getting lynched immediately (0-1 exchange), 1/3 the switch gets lynched and the vig shots him (1-1 exchange), 1/3 the vig gets lynched, in this case he has 50% chance of getting lynched right after and 50% to get the switch lynched too before getting lynched himself).
as soon as scum can use the one-shot kill, they target one of the two non-townies with that.
if they hit the vig, game goes ahead one random lynch at a time
if they hit the switch, game still goes ahead one random lynch at a time, with the only difference that in this case vig will shoot at lylo (because it's the stage in which he has more probability to hit scum), which doesn't make any difference at all with a lynch in a nightless game...
silly setup
