Greater Idea Mafia

Greater Idea Mafia is a semi-open setup, based on Great Idea Mafia, designed to be flexible while adding an extra layer of WIFOM and almost entirely removing the need for random votes.

Possibly Confusing Setup-Specific Things

• If only one Mason or Lover is chosen, then they are essentially a named Vanilla Townie.
• If more than 2 Masons or Lovers are chosen, then all the Masons form one Mason group, and all the Lovers form one Lover group (rather than separate pairs). The Nymphomaniac, however, creates a separate Lover group when it uses its action on Night 1. It is possible to unite the two groups if the Nymphomaniac targets an existing Lover, however.
• The One-Shot PGO will target only one player. If multiple players target him in a single night, he will target the one that arrives first, according to NAR. If there is still a tie, then the player which dies is randomized via Random.org.
• On the forum, it is strongly advised to only run setups that start with at least 50% Town roles. This should also be advertised to the players. Broken setups are no fun. On scumchat or Skype or a Marathon Day, go crazy. Crazy setups ARE fun.
• The Alien faction has only a one-shot factional nightkill for the whole game. The faction was designed to appear rarely but have powerful role actions.

Mechanics

• Roles are assigned to players via the Random.org List Randomizer.
• Balance is explicitly not guaranteed.

Setup Design

This setup was invented as a Face-to-Face game at the 2013 UK Scummers Meet, using a constantly expanded card deck. The setup is intentionally goofy and designed for slightly shorter, less serious games - at the meet, it was frequently played at night. The initial deck was designed by ChannelDelibird but was modified and then vastly expanded by all the other attendees of the UK meet.
