I'm posting this thread now because there are a couple of things I need to point out before any role PMs are sent out. Please read this because it'll save everyone a lot of confusion later. I'll do my best to explain it simply and clearly, but if you have any questions at all, ask me via PM or in the sign up thread.
In the Greater Idea Mafia, you are given two cards from which to pick your role. In Greatest Idea Mafia, you are given 3 cards to pick your role from. However, you must choose two out of three cards to create your role for this game.
What does this mean?
It means that you pick your alignment from one card and your role from another card.
Alignment = Town, Mafia, Alien, Werewolf, Loner, SK, Cult etc
Role = Vanilla, Goon, Cop, Doctor, Vigilante etc
For example, you could receive the following three roles:
Town Doctor
Mafia Goon
Werewolf Cop
You would choose two of these cards, one to pick your alignment (town, mafia or werewolf) and one to pick your role (Doctor, Goon or Cop).
So you could pick Town Goon, Mafia Doctor, Werewolf Doctor, Town Cop, Werewolf Goon or Mafia Cop. Bare in mind that not all of those combinations are of any use. Town Goon would be a useless role to pick because Town members cannot perform factional night kills.
Secondly, there is a list of forbidden combinations, should you be given the opportunity to combine them. They are forbidden for obvious reasons.
- Because of the special "choose 2" mechanic, many new and * roles are possible given certain role combinations. The following is a list of blacklisted combinations that should be advertised to players before a game.
- Mafia Mason
- Werewolf Lover
- Mafia Innocent Child
- Werewolf Innocent Child
- Alien Innocent Child
- Serial Killer Innocent Child
- Survivor Innocent Child
- Cult Innocent Child
- Lyncher Innocent Child
- Judas Innocent Child
- Saulus Innocent Child

Random list of rules and general guidance for the game:
- Once the theme is chosen, characters will be asigned to alignments. As far as I am able, they will not be completely random. For example, the Simpsons mafia characters would be the mafia characters offered in this game, if that was the theme.
- Quoting from role PMs is strictly forbidden. Instant modkill regardless of the game stage. All roles will be sent in black text and will only differ in the roles and characters offered.
- My write ups are deliberately vague. Do not look for clues about the game in my write ups, you will be wasting your time.
- Liking of posts is allowed
- Day 1 will not require a majority lynch. Whoever has most votes, will be lynched.
- All other days will require a majority lynch.
- The list of roles will be completely randomised, with no roles from the list excluded.
- All anti-town factions will have a day chat.
- Here we go 10 in a row

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
It is now Day 1.
17 players are alive. Day 1 will end Wednesday at 7pm.
Whoever has the most votes against them will be lynched, unless a majority of 9 votes has been reached before then.

Looking forward to this, some interesting discards..

There's one discard that massively stands out.
-
Idioteque I’ll laugh until my head comes off
Gonna take a while getting the hang of this one. Should be a good game though

2 players that discarded vanilla town roles , both known for devioushness .
-
M.E.T.H.O.D MAN Straight from the slums of Shaolin
How am I known for deviousness ?I should be known for being on the bad end of stupid lynches
I didn't need the town part of that role and the vanilla part is useless. If suspicion is going on vanilla town discards it should be on all town discards as its the same thing -

only the start Edwardo , nothing else to post :50: -
The VT discards are perfectly fine. Town Cop lover however...
-
I didn't fancy dying due to anyone else's poor play, again. I died due to someone else previously as a brother.
If you had kept your gladiator then you maybe could have challenged me, Bob. -
Venclos turned down Werewolf Godfather, a similarly strong role to Mafia Godfather, yet you haven't asked him why? Any reason why, V?
-
Erm, why haven't YOU asked then?
:56::97: -
-
1 shot gladiator is a * role.
-
Because I don't find it suspicious. V seems to find Dazza rejecting it suspicious but not you... How come?
-
Why are you trying to make auto-suggestions here?
I haven't said a thing against anyone.....yet.
I rejected a role that was absolutely *. Same as the rest of the combination of roles I was landed with, and I took a * TOWN role btw.
