Really ridiculous open setup ideas that I've played elsewhere

Open Setup #1:

4 VTs
1 Bodyguard
1 Watcher
1 Tracker
1 Town Roleblocker
1 Mafia Suicide Bomber (idk what you call it 'technically')
1 Mafia Janitor
1 Mafia Tracker

The presence of a suicide bomber who can sacrifice himself to convert someone at random means you can't really trust a claim after the bomber blows. The amount of power roles means the tracker/watcher can't just catch scum instantly without potentially outing one of their own.


Open Setup #2:

1 VT
1 Vig
3 Vengeful Townies
1 Jailkeeper
1 SK
1 Mafia Goon
1 Mafia Rolecop

@shaft.ed: you'd probably need a tracker/watcher in that setup, otherwise the chance of the cop getting an innocent result on the SK/GF pretty much makes him pointless imo.

^ Yeah, that's pretty much how this role would work.

How would Cop + Doc + 3 VTs + Goon + Goon work as an open setup?

Mafia would know they have to counterclaim cop D1.
