There'll be a club for this NA, if anything. But not a strong one.

Just no drug-crazed newspapers, where the hell you can't even tell what NA was used...:smile38:

Make up your mind — either your town is over-stuffed or the mafia is brutal.

I'd love to, but somehow I just can't settle on one.:(
A joining neutral is a fairly "slippery" thing, and here it's not "broken in" yet. A lone neutral usually joins the winning team, unless they're stoned trying to bring "cuteness" into the game.:D The team that's "on top" gets the extra advantage of an additional player. Usually there are several such neutrals, and the rule is: either all neutrals band together into a separate team, or they scatter wherever they like, but only one each (if neutral x joined team y, the other neutrals can no longer join y).
Here there's also the option for the mafia to take a neutral by force.
With 6 mafias the town must be at least 12 people. Otherwise within a couple of turns the count can become 6:5 and the "useful" one has nothing left but to defect to the mafia, after which the game is over.:smile32:
A million and one kills by the town won't save the situation, because the town doesn't know its own. And if it does, then it's no longer a town...
One possible option is to split the mafia into 2 teams and make them fight each other, but that somehow looks like nonsense...
A second option is to carve Rubin and his little sisters out into a separate mafia team, and fill the freed-up "holes" in the town with new roles. But then you'd need over 25 players...

Normas, the town are villains anyway, and all season long they were busy cutting each other down more than the sailor girls. The rest of the kills got trimmed.

Well, sure, if in the rules you let all the civvies gather at a corpse's "grave" and "smoke plans" away from the thread, then the balance is perfectly fine.:D:D:D Such games do exist in the wild. But they invariably have a "third side" (more often 4 sides and several neutrals), otherwise the game ends the instant one side gets a majority at the vote.

It's obvious they're villains. They're just not a town in the usual sense: a pile of kills + a relatively small numerical edge over the mafia.
