Scooby Doo Mafia - ARay Wins!

But, Ollie, what held me back from doing that is, I personally believe people tend to bog down after getting a vanilla role and on top of that if I informed them about their bodyguard nature, they would hardly bother.

That's why I was thinking, that say they 'protect' the player whilst being killed at night there win condition could be such that they are given an 'honourable win' by saving the character.

I thought the idea in HP mafia, was brilliant because not only was it a very good game of Mafia, but it also went along with the whole Harry Potter storyline, so much so that didn't it actually end up with Harry and Voldemort at the end?

And I believe we should stop arguing as well.

I quite agree.

Harry and Voldemort at the end?

Almost. It was Harry, Ron and Draco at the end though. Voldemort was lynched off by only one vote as he was very weak after the horcruxes were destroyed.

This could have actually worked. Ah well. I But, again only if the town won which they didn't. But, a lesson learned.

I think an involuntary bodyguard who didn't have to survive to the end to win, as long as the player they were protecting survived, is a reasonable workable idea. Of course they would have to know who they were guarding.

If you remove the rule about have to survive to win, a lot more roles become workable.

That was it, it was just the fact that the end was so fitting for Harry Potter in general. The heir to Voldemort trying to get rid of the one he could never 'destroy' with his main man right next to him. Fantastic.

As you said, it's a learning experience and a good idea, that we have just made better.

I think that is the best way to make it work but the player who is being guarded shouldn't be told, nor should the bodyguard be allowed to make it purposely obvious.
