From time to time I like to take a break from a normal town vs mafia game and play some odd setups. Sometimes it's a little hard to get a room to stay but when it works out it can a lot of fun and pretty interesting/suspenseful if you happen to make a good one.

So far I've been having fun with 1/4 Arson, 1/4 Jester and 1/2 Citizen and people seem to enjoy it. I also started doing some 1/3 SK, 1/3 Vigi (3 shots), 1/3 Survivor (1 or 2 vests) and that one actually requires thinking on behalf of the vigilantes since they can tell each other who did not die from their shots, and people can lie ;).

Anyone else has some ideas or has experienced some unusual setups that were fun? Post em up here.

I haven't actually done one like that for real... Only technically once when 8 people left after start of game, with only 6 people I had to be creative. 3 vigi's, 2 sk's, 1 Mafioso. Everyone died and nobody won, lol.

But some ideas do come to mind ;o

[1] "I was framed!"
1 Godfather - immune to detection
2 Framers
11 Sheriffs

[2] "Who is the killer?"
5 Doctors
5 Serial Killers
1 Investigator
1 Consigliere

[3] "Pure Torture" - Night Sequence On
11 Serial Killers - Immune at night
1 Godfather - Immune at night

[4] "Shrouded in Darkness"
1 Arsonist - Ignores Immune
1 SK
1 Godfather (Immune?)
1 Vigilante (4 shots?)
10 Citizens with vests

Had some funny setups too..... here some i did yesterday... but most of em contain a lot of ranomdness^^

2 docs, 8citizen, 4 arsos
5Vigis (2 shots), 5 witches, 4 jesters
6 Survivor (2vests), 1 GF & 1 SK both immune at night, 6 escort

That last one looks REALLY fun, seems like it would be hard to pull it off without people leaving but it doesn't seem like it needs a minimum large amount of players to work.

I tried 1 GF, 1 Survivor (4 vests), and the rest SK once. Thought it might be mildly amusing, but it really wasn't. The GF ended winning even with random lynching. I'm sure there are some cool setups.

I actually consider my regular setup a bit unorthodox, even though I feel it's truer to the game than a more orthodox setup, but people reject it and repick me often. I use no sheriffs and no randoms, and try to encourage as much lying as possible, but I'm not going to report my setup here (it's posted in the quest thread).
