Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-30105631-20170930015003/@comment-29253708-20170930055611

First things first with the 50/50 thing... RNG is bad in general, for everything. (Except when I'm involved *kek*)

Sadly, most of the situations I can think about with this role is gamethrowing. With such a powerful Mafia role, you're pretty much asking for it... However, in the hands of an experienced player, this is very well-made. I love the idea.

It's pretty much just a more powerful Godfather. The Godfather only controls the Mafioso. If one MK is roleblocked, the other one does the killing. The Godmother, however, overrides ALL Mafia decisions rather than the Godfather's Mafia-kill-only decision, AND you get to know the results of that decision.

While this IS a very good way to buff the Mafia, it nearly completely gets rid of the strategy needed to play as them. You have the night chat so you can discuss what to do each night. Everyone is able to make their own decisions, and in an active Mafia, you can get great strategy and discussion, just like the mini-Town that the Mafia is supposed to be.

It's just "Hey do this because I want you to, and you have no choice" *clicks button* While this would be great for ANOTHER gamethrowing player (who is, for example, active but doesn't want to do anything) or AFK players, it's not very good otherwise.
