4 would be ato me - Condemner is what the "win if target player is eliminated" 3P is named to me (though the name is prescribed and not described) and Treestump is defined that way in Great Idea MafiaCondemner Treestump
as for my thoughts:
1-shot RNG Cop can randomly be useless
Nymphomaniac really needs a different name but it's still named that in Great Idea
Adder only divides by 2 if the result exceeds the maximum - therefore it tends toward high number roles
Double Roler is kinda stronge
Survivor Compulsive Bodyguard should probably be on Worst Role Ideas
Jester Diplomat is a blacklisted alignment/role combo
I am tempted to vote 0 just for the meme but 4 or 8 would be good actual choices.time will end-

Martyr is also a decent one
I still want to point out that my support for GIM post 0 (a VT, what Cook has labeled 1 because you can't manually override list orders, see this thread: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=88687 ) is for the memetime will end-

Page 1 read list:
VT - useful choice ironically
Goon - boring
Survivor CompBG - should not exist
Cond Treestump - Very interesting combo, but being a 3P holds it back
Lover - Needs pre-planning to work
Confused - Annoying, provable randomness
RNG Cop - not well designed for what is basically a Number Cop Peek
IC Dayvig - Strong town role, dayvig exhibits chaos which is good
Jestdiplo - VETOED, banned combo
Tourist - -ve utility
Maf lover - Needs pre-planning to work
Nympho - change the freaking name
Post 13 - umm, what
Adder - Interesting concept
Double Roler - stronge
Judas - bad
High-Numbers Roleblocker - can we retcon this to beyond 100 in the GIMGH deck? if not then it is a needlessly specific roleblocker
Cop - it's a cop, we can do better than this
Saulus - bad
Maf Visitor - alignment kinda ruins the novelty
BPSK - 3P
Doomed Underdog - literally zero player agency
Martyr - negative feedback
pedit: condemner stump can be an interesting role assuming it flips and still can win when dead
ic dayvig I like because of the dayvig parttime will end-

can we have these clauses to prevent GIMGH from having external pulls?
Number Clause - Anything referring to Grand Idea post number instead refers to Grand Idea Greatest Hits card number.
External Pull Clause - Any role that refers to an external list of roles is vetoed.
Consistency Clause - Any role that refers to the Grand Idea thread instead refers to the Grand Idea Greatest Hits deck.
(note that Adder and High-Numbers Roleblocker would be affected by the Number Clause, don't count my votes on those roles if the Number Clause doesn't apply and you can get non GIMGH roles with the Adder)time will end-

If Stuntman double-won if their faction wins without any Town eliminations it would be worthy of voting.
As written, Stuntman is a negative utility role without any benefits as Stuntman has no incentive to not eliminate Town (as a win is a win). Stuntman is the worst form of negative utility and isbastardfor imposing a hidden wincon (this applies even for double-win Stuntman, which is a better designed version that actually sows doubt in a scumteam and enables a 4D chess strategy to double win).
49's Role Shuffler is in my interpretation a mod discretion-aligned role that swaps roles (but not alignment, as the post says "role") with a target, meaning the role shuffler takes the target's role and the target becomes a role shuffler.
E.g. Player A (Town Role Shuffler) targeting Player B (Mafia Tomato) means Player A will become a Town Tomato and Player B will become a Mafia Role Shuffler.
Survivor Role Card Shuffler is more fun for whoever rands it but is a lot more chaotic as it causes alignment changes and the role basically becomes a hot potato as Survivor is a hard alignment. If it were an alignment changer, it would have all the implications of other alignment changers like Cult Leaders, such as what if groupscum got targeted or if the Role Card Shuffler or their target dies that Night. I still wouldn't vote for a role card shuffler, and I'd be unwilling to vote it with a balanced alignment.time will end-

that would be the "what if groupscum got targeted" scenario for Role Card Shuffler, as that means a groupscum becomes a Survivor.In post 91, Jake The Wolfie wrote:I meant like, a groupscum player who has partners is converted into either town or into another groupscum.time will end-

that applies if you're groupscum somehow (like you were Culted), which is kinda broken actuallyIn post 93, Jake The Wolfie wrote:YEah, but you have the ability to shuffle role cards with another player, such as a townie, which means that you've effectively de-converted yourself from being groupscum to being town.time will end-

page three thoughts:
BP Miller SK - alright, pretty classic 3P and fairly balanced for making an SKattic game
Lemon Townie - pretty much Named, idk what interacts with sourness
Knowledgeable Townie - Good role, have modded a game with one in it before
Omnicidal Lumberjack - Interesting SK variant but a vanilla SK is already hard to win as. Has amod discretionelement to it - namely what immunities it gets.
Compulsive Vengeful Gladiator - Synergistic combo, and ungated gladiator has too much influence on the game. Alignment not specified, so it ismod discretion.
Town Scavenger - Going 72 hours without posting will likely get you force replaced for inactivity so this doesn't seem too useful.
Night-kill Jester - Just an Unjester that loses if daykilled. I'd rather have a standard Unjester.
Boundless - Dead interaction role, a pretty alright one though it should count as a mysterious disappearance if Boundless joins the Dead PT. Alignment not specified, so it ismod discretion.
Medium - Interesting and good role.
Placeholder -This is 100% mod discretion.
JOAT 2 - The Enabler part of the role kinda makes it less good.
Voodoo Shaman - Interesting role. Alignment not specified, so it ismod discretion.
JOAT 2.5 - A good and powerful JOAT Alignment not specified, so it ismod discretion.
Prime Number Enthusiast -Affected by Clause 2, kinda strange role cop, requires a bit of pre-planning (also the Prime Number Enthusiast will actually be on a prime number here).
Leader of the Bland Band - This works only on VTs and Mafia Goons? Strange. Town role.
VT - We already have one.
Goon - It's a goon.
Treacherous Usurping Backup-Godfather - Wincon negative utility is bad. And being able to backup a Godfather is not worth it.
Avoider - Alright role, can be good for targeting scum.
Town Goon - Wow it's a vanilla with a cool name!
Magnetic Bomb - Useless role. Alignment not specified, so it ismod discretion.
Odd-Night Bulletproof Even-Day Jester - Even-Day Jester is an interesting concept.
1-shot Sentry - I assume this works the same way it does in Great Idea, acting as a Sentry only on the first night they are targeted.
pedit: making unspecified alignments town like they used to is a good idea for this thread.time will end-

VOTE: Bulletproof Miller Serial Killer - 126 incorrectly lists this as-aligned when the post the role is from explicitly states it is aTownSerial Killer
VOTE: Knowledgeable Townie
VOTE: Town Medium
VOTE: Mafia Medium
VOTE: Town Jack-of-all-Trades 2.5 - Unspecified alignment, not explicitly mod discretion. I'm suggesting Clause 3 - Unspecified alignment posts are Town-aligned like they used to be.
VOTE: Town Avoider
VOTE: Town Goon
VOTE: Town 1-shot Sentry - Sentry is the term replacement for PGO, but I don't think it's well accepted yet.
I'll also point out that HURT: is to UNVOTE: as HEAL: is to VOTE: for the purposes of this thread - if you change your mind on liking a page 4 role you can use HURT: tags.time will end-

Page 4 thoughts:
2s Friendly Neighborizer - excellent role, very powerful.
Nuclear Saint - Overpowered, but not broken
JOAT 3 - Pretty okay, idk what use town has for a framer
Temporal Inversed - You get an IC at the cost of a Vig shot. Interesting role, I assume this role can die again but not be revived again.Dead interaction role. I should point out that a Temporally Inversed Townie needs to flip to work properly, as the role explicitly allows targeting a dead player with a kill and that's not normally allowed. I assume multikilling a initially dead Temporally Inversed Townie still results in an alive Temporally Inversed Townie.
Scumhunter - An IC but with a bonus wincon making them want to scumhunt.Possible double-win.
Bloodhound - A classic Great Idea role
Trade of all Jacks - This implies needing to know the exact order of operations, which is not a thing in NAR. Copycat is not defined, but it probably means just repeat their action back at them.
Alien Sympathiser - Sympathiser is a good way to prevent scumteams of size 1 from being generated
Babysitter - Normal role. Docs if they survive that night, but vigs if they die that night.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa - Join date and username elitism? Seriously? Bad role.
Amnesiac Random - Interesting reroll-type role. I assume this is a "reroll for alignment" type deal as well?
Doomed Variant - Wincon negative utility reroll-type role. Wincon negative utility is not worth being in GIMGH.
Soloist - If you're the only townie left you basically win and the scum loses. Or it might not work as a win button, idk.BROKEN
Vanilla Brownie - Named townie.
Godzilla Townie - Flavorful but being full-silenced until Day 4 is godawful.UNFUN
Alien JOAT - Non-standard JOAT as it is both Double and 5-shot (can use up to two abilities per night, and 5 per game).
Town Mason - Pre-planning would be needed.
Day 3 GC - I don't think having your alignment revealed as scum is a good thing.
FN - The basic Friendly Neighbor, pretty good role.Last edited by TemporalLich on Wed Feb 23, 2022 3:54 pm, edited 2 times in total.time will end-

page 5 thoughts:
kinda unremarkable page tbh
Compulsive Mailman - Almost Normal
Kidnapper - A babysitter that can't heal
Role Caller - Making a setup open just to you is extremely strong
Machorizer - Permanently renders someone unable to be protected from kill by adding Macho modifier, quite strong
Monitored Beloved Princess - Why would anyone want this
1-shot Sensor - Sensor is known to be a very strong role
Scrabbler - Interesting idea I think? Idk
Weak CPR Doctor - Good idea it looks like
Vanilla Cop - Not terribly useful in Grand Idea
Vanillaizer - Almost as devastating as a Vigilante
Torchbearer - Negative Utility as Town

Diplomat Assassin - An easy to win as third-party. A third-party with a kill who wins if they kill a non-town player. Diplomatic immunity gives this a guaranteed shot.
Strong-Willed Ninja Kill-Everything Dragon - A SK-like third-party with a strong-willed ninja firebreathing attack and an ambiguously worded Bulletproof ability (does the Dragon get a shot of BP when a scum dies? when a scum dies by anyone except the Dragon? or just per factional kill in the setup?)
Pirate Captain - Makes people able to see Ninjas by adding Pirate modifier. Interesting idea.
Day 2 Rolepicker - Can pick a co-aligned role on Day 2. Very strong.
Pistachio - Funny flip role.
Firefighter - Stops priming and ignition, or just gets a player wet.
Taser Nut - Roleblocks a player, or kills a wet player.
MORDOR - BP Ascetic with nice meme.Unspecified alignment.
Y U NO GUY - Hard but funny post restriction.Unspecified alignment.
Vengeful Enigma - Has a list of venge abilities but will only know which venge ability they have when eliminated. Knifesmith is Blade Expert. Healthy modifier means immune to poison. Results are revealed in the game thread.
Pyromaniac - Town-aligned Arsonist
Arsonist - This refers to a third-party Arsonist
Tracker - Normal role
Dolphin - We already have a dolphin. The two on this page are scum however.
Peanut Butter - Forms neighbor pairs with Jelly.
Jelly - Must be upset about being a Townie in the first post.
Mentor - Defined as per Mentor on the wiki. Can recruit a Mentee if there isn't one, or either the Mentor or Mentee can use the Mentor kill if there is a Mentee. Mentor and Mentee has a PT.
