But at any rate, I agree that a third party seems very plausible.

If there isn't one, and it's just Town vs Mafia, then I'd guess that there are probably 4 Mafia, maybe 5? Seems like Mafia usually make up around 20-25% of the total town population (at least when there's no other group involved). 4 Mafia would be ~21%, 5 Mafia would be ~26%.

If there's a malicious third party that can also kill people (like Serial Killers), my guess would be 4 Maf, 1 Serial Killer. If the third party is a team of people, then I dunno. I haven't seen enough of those to really get a good guess for what a solid balance would be. Like 3 Maf, 2-or-3-person 3rd party? Or does that seem too stacked one way or another?

Sometimes the Necromancer is written as their own team, that adds revived players to their side. However this is rare, and unfair.
Usually they are sided with the town, and can revive a player. There are rules on when and how they revive, though.

I'm going to say 4 or 5 mafia. Any more and there is almost certainly going to be another role that can kill, whether serial killer or vigilante.

Funkfreed , could you also answer the 2 other questions? Also I don't know what the 'necromancers, win condition would be if there even is one. Alph and Laki : you may also answer these questions

All right, thanks. A necromancer aligned with the town makes a lot more sense to me than one who's on a separate team, so I hope that's not the case.

For the other stuff Funkfreed mentioned, I don't know what Lyncher third-party does, but if we had a Fool playing as a third party, I'd say put him/her in place of the Serial Killer in my scenario above. I really have to hope we wouldn't have both of them here.

No problem. Are you still asking about my responses to your other questions as well? I believe I answered #1 in post #28, though, and for #3, I voiced my current major concerns in post #105, asking for those players to give some input.

Oh oh, me me!
Do any of you think the Mafia will try to play off their scummy behavior as simple role play? It's easy to do in this format. I say we shouldn't stand for it! Harrumph!
Funkfreed , please answer this question aswell as the other one I asked.

No , your posts have already answered my questions. If you have any questions for me , you may ask them.

Oh, my answers?
I feel like most people's characters aren't antagonistic enough to warrant scummy behaviour. Falling back on roleplay is possible, but unlikely.
No one seems overly suspicious at this point. Brulee's silence is a bit irritating, but not enough to pursue her.
