I guess it can't be a forum wide thing for now.

[QUOTE=Stealthbomber16;908833]I have let players prefer citizen in the past if they have a busy schedule. This has been multiple different players under multiple different circumstances. I did it myself to someone else earlier this year, I think.

I think the issue with having a "prefer" system is that it adds in a layer of the game that isn't really conducive to forum mafia: player prefer meta. For instance, Mike likes to prefer evil roles every game? Lynch Mike because he probably preferred evil. It's against the spirit of the game.[/QUOTE]

That's a hypothetical isn't it? Why would anyone prefer evil and announce that they did that game after game. Or are you talking about like person A noticing that person B was evil in the past 5 mafia games and then A announcing in game that B is evil because of out of game info?

Also, would preferring work in an anon game?

Can you have a balanced forum mafia game with private prefers? I don't see why not. The upside is that players get to play what they want. And the only restriction would be that you can't hint at what you preferred or if you actually preferred or not.
