No normal Townies?
To this day I'm still not convinced that normal townies are required in a game, there are roles that have functions similar to a normal townie but I mean a normal townie feels boring otherwise, I mean the game I'm based off on doesn't have townies without roles so that worked out click to expand
It's more difficult for the Mafia team though. Cuz Townies can just ask what is the name of the role you got and if you claimed a name that has already been claimed, you put a big target on your back right off the bat and you may not be privy to the same information as the other person who claimed the same role. click to expand
One can always lie and provide fake proof
Let's say I'm the sheriff and I checked and asked you and Acsquarepluto what your roles are
You both claim lookout, you show fake evidence about going to marshmellow's house and seeing that acsquarepluto visited and the following morning marshmellow died because you happen to also kill marshmellow the same night
And therefore acsquarepluto's evidence will be less convincing! Like the idea is to promote talks and hysteria like this click to expand
The problem lies with what information I'm not privy to, imo.
Like if I'm mafia and you're sheriff, and I try to claim lookout. I do not know if the real lookout had been confirmed or not. Because the townies have to yet to trust me, they are not going to volunteer that info. Especially here, if I say that I visited Instant and Instant also wounds up dead afterwards, that makes me look very suspicious. click to expand

Well my alternative solution is to make some of the duplicated town roles be random town instead, meaning that they can be any one of the above town roles I wrote down
