if we don't want mechanic we should remove cops! they are a subset of justice (though cops have a lower chance of death or reveal from visiting granny/ gramps/ lm)
This sounds all good and all theoretically but in practice, being a useless role sucks and I cannot expect people to be OK with spending 10 minutes of their life in a game "for balance" nor blame them who sui because their role is useless.
like, it would be better to just remove the crappy maf roles from the setup but since people wont then having a few extra crappy town roles is pretty good for balance
actually umbreon does have a point though, it brings more balance to the official sandbox setup considering town is overpowered in it compared to mafia
Doesn't offer town anything,but does it take away anything from town?

ftr there isn't an "official" sandbox set
but i would generally advise keeping it out of your sets. it needs a little more tuning imo (being able to choose people who you want to fix items for would go a long way for the role) but otherwise, avoid it
Mechanic doesn't necessarily have to be seen as a counter to fab. If you're a mechanic you can count on all your items being real regardless of their source. Keep in mind that trickster can give out fake items too.
mechanic is in the official setup? who had the great idea lmao read the role before adding it...
I know. I think that after new roles were created, many previously-not-included troll and useless roles such as telepath and snoop were added. They should probably be removed as well.
