As far as gameplay effects? Who knows. Maybe nothing.

Functionally? It means you can vote for as many people as you want. Vote for one becomes vote for one or more. If you think 2, or even 3, people are scum, vote for all of them.

Has anyone ever ran a game where their is no scum but the mod just kills people when they feel like it?

Because that would be hilarious

They did. The game was about guessing if there were scum or not.

And no unvoting, because that's not how America works.

I kind of want an insane bastard game. You know, the kind where half the mechanics have nothing whatsoever to do with mafia. Don't we have anyone here who likes to make and run those?

I like the idea, but I am terrible at inventing new mechanics.

Maybe if I try hard enough.

I like playing those and maybe making up several mechanics, but definitely not running one - I constantly think 'No, wait, that idea is much better than this one!' and never get anywhere in particular. But if someone decides to risk it, I may contribute.

I ran one of those!

Anyways, if there's no interest in the game I outlined above, I'll probably go back to running bastards after this game.

No unvoting? Oh, hell. That would actually be a pretty good idea for a regular bastard game. There'd be less pressure votes/RVS votes to begin with - but would you not have to reset the votes at the end of the mafia day?

Here's a potentially hilarious mechanic: Forced Chainsaw (or whatever you'd call it).

Person X votes for person Y, person Z is forced to vote for person X. Either through a posting restriction or "locked" by the mod.

Also amusing: Forced OMGUS.

Needs a bit more work, but I think I have the core of Bastard Paranormal 2 ready. So once I have the details shaken out I'll get that into sign-ups.
