TFM Ideas (Suggest your own!)

[Metrion]

If you'd like to post any ideas for future TFMs here is the place to do it. Adding a witty or cheesy title will get you bonus points.

Keep in mind when constructing a rolelist:

13 players maximum
Have no whispers
Shorter days and hardly ever a night phase
Are free to use different mechanics/roles
Balance is difficult, remember citizens are integral against role claims.





This time, it's personal.

What da heck is going on????!!!!!:

Investigator

Godfather
Janitor

Should I change Investigator to Sheriff or Lookout for balance proposes? Or should there be no investigatives and be replaced with another Citizen instead?

Transpoeter is unique in FM, but I have always wanted to see a FM game with it not unique.

Not sure why you needed to point out that the Witch must survive as it's part if its goal anyways. If the Witch has the shield, that's 4/9 roles that can be immune on a given night.

Question: Can we pitch TFMs for CFM or is it not really worth it because the games are so short?

c10 - wow check these charts out is nice
r15 - uh no

Or, simply...

Check out these charts

Spoiler: Grapher (sheriff)
Sketch Artist (lookout)
Charter (citizen)
Charter (^)
Charter (^)

CEO (godfather)
Vandalist (framer)

Caricature (jester)

Jester lynch = game over

No idea what I'm doing (I blame Met). Mini theme game sounds fun.
btw the Charters are also cakes
Miller for a cit, maybe maybe not. Idunno would be fun. But charts, man. Charts.

Wander and the Colossus


Wander (May slay a colossus every night or investigate a group of targets and receive a message if any main colossi among them, also acting as a Veteran. Shadow Beings cannot be slain. Cannot act after the main colossi die.)
Main colossi must be killed, wins so long as Mono is alive at the end, regardless if she wins. Dormin must be alive until Mono is resurrected.

Mono (Always the last player to join the game. Starts off dead. Resurrected once all the main colossi die, cannot die to Dormin.)
Wins with all those but Dormin.

Malus the Grand Celestial (Each night checks one player, can determine if they are human form: Wander or a Shadow Being)
Cenobia the Destruction Luster (May maul someone to death once. Does not kill Malus, Barba or Dormin. Cannot activate until Wander has killed.)
Barba the Goliath (Just kind of there)
Shadow Being Informed that they are a lesser colossus.
Lesser Colossus
Lesser Colossus
Lesser Colossus
Dormin must be killed or stopped.

Dormin (Wander must kill the 3 main Colossi then you may kill instead of Wander, you know their identity and can send a message after every colossi death. Immune at night.)
Wins with Wander, all Colossi must be killed, Mono may be spared.

Warning, no clue if this would work in theory or in play.

I'm glad you didn't put Agro in this list for the notion of feels.

[Metrion]

One does not simply mention Agro without feels.


It needs some tweaking but it could be interesting, kind of a scum hunt followed by another if you failed.

[Invenio]

Watch your back:
Mayor
Godfather - No night immunity
Serial Killer - No night immunity
Jester
Survivor - Vests, of course, DO grant night immunity

Vigilantics

Me and some buddies ran some IRL mafia games with this setup:
-The game starts on a shorter day phase where lynching is disabled.
-Whispers are unlimited.
Mafioso - May kill one person during the night.
Sheriff - May learn one person's alignment (Jester and Cit appear as NS, Mafioso appears as Mafia) during the night.
Citizen - No abilities except a lynch vote.
Jester - Wins if he is lynched during the day.

This game is 3 phases:
Day 1 (no lynching)
Night 1 (abilities)
Day 2 (the determiner)
Basically, the lynch on Day 2 determines the winner.

oh I thought Serial Killer was uninformed 'cause they don't know their allies
I can change name to something else... just thought of that though

[Swordsworth]

Edited this just for the sake of which one is nicer for the roleplay. The rolelists are the same and function the same. Same rules and all.

Final edit: Added Investigative results

Deceptive Incompetence

Spoiler: Investigator
Citizen
Citizen
Drunkard(Citizen that shows as framer to the Investigator)(Is told they are a regular citizen)
New Investigator(Investigation results are opposite of the truth due to lack of experience in the field)(Is told that they are a regular Invest)

Mafioso
Framer


...or No Respect for the Knowledgeable

Spoiler: Scholar
Peasant
Peasant
Drunkard(Citizen that shows as framer to the Investigator)(Is told they are a regular citizen)
Inept Researcher(Investigation results are opposite of the truth due to lack of experience in the field)(Is told that they are a regular Scholar)

Thief
Manipulator


Day phases are 3 days irl days, not 5
Night phases are 12 hours(This may be stressing on the mafia if in different timezones; if the change is too drastic, Night phases are 24 hours instead)
No whispers

Investigative results: Spoiler: Your target is a simple, mild mannered person, they must be a Civilian/Peasant!
Your target has lots of false pictures in their home, they must be a member of the Mafia!
Your target owns a secret camera and a magnifying glass, they are no doubt a fellow Investigator/Scholar!

If the mafia number is equal to or greater than the amount of town and the drunkard is dead, the mafia wins.
If it comes to a tie between mafioso and drunkard, drunkard will win.

-Logic being that the mafia will pity the drunkard, and the drunkard will slit their throat, being still a townie.

Unless I'm missing something how would this work ? Fuses go off by being attacked and there's no attacking roles.
