Inadvertent Mountainous

Inadvertant Mountainous is a Bastard Mod game theme created by somestrangeflea. It was originally a 7 player setup with:

• 2 Investigation Immune Mafia
• 1 Nurse
• 1 Deputy
• 1 Miller
• 2 Vanilla Townies

A game was later run in the mini normal queue as Mini 562: Omodby Oman. A 12 player night-start setup with:

• 1 Godfather + 1 Mafia Roleblocker
• 1 Psychiatrist
• 1 Retired Cop
• 1 [[Miller]
• 7 Vanilla Townies

However, the theme can be expanded to encompass the following definition:

An Inadvertent Mountainous game is a game in which a majority of role PMs are designed to give the impression that the Town or Mafia have Power Roles, when in fact neither do.

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 investigations, 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:

• Backups to roles which don't exist.
• Enablers to roles which don't exist.
• Millers or Investigation Immune Mafia with no Cops.
• Psychiatrists with no Serial Killers
