Also no Kikori; that would be completely unfair to people that can't be online all day.

Add me and Market to that list. We have a variant but it needs more time.

Yours wasn't bad rip!
Ah, but it didn't really have any story or anything. I could put that in next time around.

Monk - normal
Jaron - variant - ongoing
Scar - Normal
Dr Henry - variant?
Topnub - Variant under construction.
Godders - Normal
Kikori - Normal
Lander & Market - Variant under construction.
Sounds good to me Top, if no one has any objections I'll get a normal game plan together and put the sign up topic up this weekend.
I'll gladly host again sooner or later, and I promise to put a bit more effort again.

I had originally intended to host in May, but wasn't ready so I delayed my turn. Since Top isn't ready currently it should be either Kikori or myself.

Also, by changing role names (Captain, Brig-Keeper, Look-Out), it opened up the possibility of claims not being believed, or fake claims being made.
After some of the previous 'normal' games were basically role-heavy variants, I tried to be clever and flip it around, by calling it a variant, giving it a theme, and some fancy role names, but essentially it was a normal game. My aim was that the main variant bit would be that everyone would ASSUME it was a variant, and expect things to be different so play slightly wary of this. I don't know how well this was achieved, especially with the poor activity and short gametime.
Balancing games is also difficult.
Welcome to my world. I don't think I've hosted a game that didn't feature the problems listed above when making.
You didn't do bad. Drunk power player with a role potentially suicidal to claim, two Mutineers with a power play against a power player, you not in the game, and not enough actual discussion that was probably due to some lack of interest / availability.
(I had to work after my day three post. I didn't have much chance to post more than that. x.x)

I was role-blocker and doctor combined, those I targeted couldn't be nightkilled, but they couldn't do anything else either.
And you are correct, I assumed a one role blocker game, I knew I hadn't targeted you so that combined with my general annoyance at that point made me vote for you.
lolol
But really, there should probably not be two roleblocking roles in one game. Also, you were pretty much a jailer.
The way I saw it, Top's roleblocking wasn't THAT useful (he didn't have many targets who needed to be blocked except for Scar and Riptide), but people he visited would be aware of a role. Scar's targets would only be informed if they had something to do at night. What this would do, in theory, was make all parties believe that there were more roles than there actually were.

Would love to hear some people tell me what they thought of the set-up as a whole, disregarding the fact that it was a 3-day game.. was this due to poor balancing, or good play by the Mutineers?
I had, in effect, this setup:
Vanilla Town
Vanilla Town
Jailkeeper
Double Voter
Watcher/Tracker (look at a person's door, if they leave, follow them, if they stay, see who enters... only every other night though - possibly could have made it every night)
Strong Swimmer - I don't know the normal name... essentially Godders would have come back aboard the morning of the day AFTER the day after he was lynched, as long as the Lookout (Riptide) was still alive to spot him swimming behind the ship.
Day One Drunk (with a night one invulnerability and muting power)
Mafia Godfather (Aragorn asked me if he was immune to night investigation... I told him no because I didn't want to reveal the fact that we didn't actually have a detective, but he was the sole person who could send in night kills)
Mafia Roleblocker (Prostitute/Wench)
Mafia Goon
