Inadvertant Mountainous is a [[Bastard Mod]] game theme created by [[somestrangeflea]]. It was originally a 7 player setup with:
'''Inadvertent Mountainous''' is a term for a game where every [[power role]] in the game is functionally useless. The term is named for a [[bastard mod]] game by [[somestrangeflea]] that used this approach.
* 2 [[Investigation]] Immune [[Mafia]]
* 1 [[Nurse]]
* 1 [[Deputy]]
* 1 [[Miller]]
* 2 [[Vanilla Townie]]s


A game was later run in the mini normal queue as [http://mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7559 Mini 562: Omod]by [[Oman]]. A 12 player night-start setup with:
Some hallmarks of this include:
* 1 [[Godfather]] + 1 [[Mafia]] [[Roleblocker]]
* 1 [[Psychiatrist]]
* 1 [[Retired Cop]]
* 1 [[Miller]]
* 7 [[Vanilla Townie]]s
 
However, the theme can be expanded to encompass the following definition:
<blockquote>An Inadvertent Mountainous game is a game in which a majority of [[role PM]]s are designed to give the impression that the Town or Mafia have [[Power Roles]], when in fact neither do.</blockquote>
Take the setup above. The Nurse could only begin protecting once the [[Doc]] dies, but since there is no Doc, the Nurse never can take advantage of this; likewise with the Deputy. The Miller would show as [[Guilty]] to [[investigation]]s, but since there is no [[Cop]], this is irrelevant. The Mafia are investigation immune, but again this makes no practical difference.
 
The game can be made Inadvertent Mountainous by using a number of the following roles:
* [[Backup]]s to roles which don't exist.
* [[Backup]]s to roles which don't exist.
* [[Enabler]]s to roles which don't exist.
* [[Enabler]]s to roles which don't exist.
* [[Miller]]s or Investigation Immune Mafia with no Cops.
* [[Miller]]s or Investigation-Immune Mafia with no [[Cops]].
* [[Psychiatrist]]s with no [[Serial Killer]]s
* [[Psychiatrist]]s or [[FBI Agent]]s with no [[Serial Killer]]s
