This is a quickfire style mafia game with special mechanics.

Game mechanics

  • 6 players, 4 town vs 2 mafia
  • Nightless - no nights, no night actions, no night kills
  • Sensor - at the beginning of the next day phase, I will state in the OP exactly how many mafia were on the lynch wagon the previous day.
  • Special mechanic - the first mafia to be lynched gets a bomb ability - he chooses 1 person to die with him.
  • No other roles.

Game rules

  • Normal rules apply, no screenshotting PMs, no outside comms, etc.
  • UNVOTEing is encouraged, not required
  • 24 hour DP cycles; no NP
  • Majority lynch
  • No-lynching results in mafia being awarded a kill

Game starts 2/17 at the earliest.

@Lunatic
This set up seems to favor town heavily 
Town loses after staring off with 2 mislynches.

The probability of the first mislynch: 2/3

Probability of 2nd mislynch, if neither mafia is on the wagon: 0

if mafia are split 1-1: 1/2

if both mafia are on the wagon: 1/2

It's very unlikely scum will play it catastrophically wrong and both fail to vote the wagon, so I'm assuming 1/2.

this means the probability of town losing by way of 2 mislynches in a row is (2/3)*(1/2)=1/3.

If mafia is lynched in either of the first 2 lynches, they'll use the bomb ability and we reach 2:1 LyLo, where mafia has a low chance of winning because 1 or both of the remaining townies could be confirmed. Add this probability to the 1/3 I think this is a fairly balanced game.
