Well, the GM needs to create 3 different blockers, 3 different checkers, 3 different doctors, etc., and each of them should be approximately equal in abilities.

Guys, an idea.

A setting is being developed for roughly 20 roles: say, 12 townsfolk, 5 mafia players, 3 neutrals beneficial. But sign-ups are for, say, 11-12 players, and only, say, 7 townsfolk, 3 mafia, and 1-2 neutral beneficial roles are dealt out. At the same time, players don't know which roles were dealt and which weren't; they only know the player distribution, but not the team composition (mafia players of course know their own, but don't know the town and the maniac). Of course, based on night actions and post-factum from corpses, you can roughly figure out who's in the game, but at first it's completely unclear.
In this scenario, the setting initially needs several blockers, guards, doctors, etc., to reduce the likelihood of a situation where the town is left without proactive night actions and ends up, like, sitting around like idiots with only investigative roles. The thing is, I don't know what's more interesting—choosing one town blocker out of three available to enter the game, or randomizing it so that the game might end up with either all three blockers or none at all. Of course, these won't be clones; roles of the same type will differ in abilities, passives, ultimates, newspaper descriptions, etc.

Long ago, about 11 years ago, the Winner hosted a Werewolf Mafia game on the KB forum, and I liked the format (but the other participants didn't). Clear newspapers, clues. There's something to think about, to create tables...
What do I see now? The game is "blind" by 95%. Crazy newspapers, clones of Neutral Detectives, nothing is displayed... "Lizard and Cop in the same bed" - excuse me, what is that...? How can you clearly determine the role of the killed players?
And after all this, various Megersons first accuse you of "suspicious inactivity," and then, when it turns out that they killed an innocent player, they give out "epic fail" and "loser" comments.
I will never, as an innocent player, execute "randomly," "based on heuristics" (unless this very heuristics is supported by at least some reliable facts), and simply "for information."
And now, they are also suggesting not knowing what roles are even present in the game???
Well, it seems "it's time to retire"...

I actually don't know if we need to add percentages or not, but if Yashur insists...
