1. Can't the Mafia just do a test where they get each member to whisper something random to the other 3 mafia members, and it would be obvious who the Agent is.

2. Old spy got removed for a reason. We don't need the "seeing mafia chat" thing back.

3. What do you mean by "Mafia Support or Disguiser". Will it be MS or Disg? If its MS, what role will it be?

4. What happens if there is both a Mafia and a Coven in game?

5. If you are a Coven, what will you be shown as instead?

6. What happens if you become a Mafioso? Do you kill for Town, like a stronger vigilante? Does Town automatically win if all other evils are dead?

7. If you cant be selected to be killed by the Mafia, that would be OP since it means you are invincible. In other words, it would always be a draw or loss for the Mafia, and Mafia's winrate is already low. We need a Mafia BUFF not a NERF.

8. Please don't tell me this is going to turn into "Mastermind V2". -_-

Answers.

1, they dont know if an agent is in the game, and any delay can cause a mafiaso to think a real mafia is an agent

'''2 Its not seeing mafia chat. youre being a part of the mafia where you are able to talk to them similar to this persons concept '''

3 the agent will be randomly picked by the game in which the Agent will show as a Mafia Support or a disguiser to the mafia

4 There will not commonly be a coven and maf in any normal or standard game, but if both exists, the faction with more players will be the faction agent will be in

5 You will be shown as hex master

6 Its simple, he cant become a mafioso, when he becomes a "mafioso" the mafia would be dead, thus he cant be 'mafioso'

'''7 I can see your point and ill change that. BUT the agent is more of a high risk high reward character where he will easily die due to the town. ill add some mechanics to correlate with that.'''

8 Nope, they have very different mechanics, dont worry
