Marshigio knew that Eor was town because Eor told him before Marsh had been close to broomed. When Marsh came into the game, he was the cop who had already invested Eor, so worked out fine. Other than that, I only told Virg, AFTER he died, whom I completely trust, and Scav, AFTER he died, whose telling on the mafia to the town would be counter to his goals in the game (he was mafia traitor, mafia aligned).
I really do appreciate all of the feedback!
The numbers look a bit skewed towards the town, but once you see some of the roles you'll see how it was balanced back towards the mafia's win.

Youngster (VANILLA): You will play the freshman, the younger kid. You have great grades, so good in fact, that you are taking Junior and Senior level classes as a freshman. You respect everyone around you, because of their enhanced social status. You have no special powers. You are town aligned and win when the town wins by eliminating all of the mafia.

You have no special powers. You are town aligned and win when the town wins by eliminating all of the mafia.

**** (VANILLA): You will play the ****, the hot chick, the go-to girl. You only make good grades because other guys do your homework; you spend most of the day applying lipstick and bending over to pick up dropped pencils. You have no special powers. You are town aligned and win when the mafia have been defeated.

Dramatic (VANILLA): You will play the dramatic, the thespian, the English-buff. You make pretty good grades, and you are in all of the school plays. You understand the importance of real dramatics, and therefore don't participate in any of the overrated teen-aged "drama." You have no special powers. You are town aligned and win when the mafia have been eliminated.

Geek (VANILLA): You will play the geek, the over-achiever, the gamer. You have great grades, and you are the captain of the mathletes. You try to keep to yourself at school, and stay out of important peoples' business -- the real fun is in the games after school. You have no special powers. You are town aligned and win when the town wins.
Those were the five (5) vanilla townies.

Class Clown (VANILLA): You will play the Class clown, the funny guy. You made a name for yourself in middle school as the funny guy, and now you pretty much have to continue with the facade or you will be left empty and heartless. You have no special powers. You are town aligned and win when the town wins by eliminating all of the mafia.
You have a role restriction! Every one of your posts must include a joke of some kind or a funny comment.
There was Matt's class clown role PM, which was made to cause fear of a Jester. Jesters are roles that want to be lynched, and the flavor only makes sense that if there was a jester, it would be the class clown.

Prep (COP): You will play the Prep, the prince, the rich kid. You have good grades, but it doesn't matter anyways because you are a legacy. But you hold yourself, and therefore your school, to a high standard; you do not accept mediocrity or, for that matter, evil. You are the cop. Every night, you can send me the name of someone you want to investigate. The next day, you will be given an investigation report on their alignment - town aligned, or mafia aligned. You are aligned with the town and win when the mafia are all out of the game.
Theres your cop.

Gossiper (PRO-TOWN REPORTER): You will play the Gossiper, the princess, the buzzing bee. You have pretty good grades, but what really interests you is the social scene around the school. You have to be the first to know what new shoes she is wearing or who he dumped to date whom. You are the Reporter. Every night, you can send me the name of someone you want to tail. The next day, you will be given a report on their whereabouts during the night -- who they visited (if anyone), and who visited them (if anyone). You are town aligned and win when the mafia is dead.
There is the Pro-town Reporter, who selects one person every night and sees anyone who visits them and also sees if they visit anyone. Causes confusion because it is pretty limited information, they could have followed the mafia or the doctor or the cop or anything.

Jock (BODYGUARD): You will play the Jock, the meathead, the athelete. You have the worst grades in the class, but the school passes you every year to keep you on their winning sports teams. You are kind of heart, which is a good thing considering your strength. You are the Bodyguard. Every night, you can send me the name of someone you want to protect. If that person is attacked during the night, you will protect them. You have a 50% chance of dying in their stead, and a 50% chance of killing the attacker. You are town aligned and win when all threats to the town are eliminated.
I decided to use a BG instead of a Doc, which is fun.

Outcast (SURVIVOR): You will play the outcast, the loner. You make average grades and try to fly under the radar -- you bother nobody, nobody bothers you, and thats it. You just want to make it through the day and to the weekend. You are the survivor. You have no special powers and no alignments. Your win objective is to simply make it through to endgame.
If Goldshadow guessed that him + #mafia = win, he could reveal himself at the end and joint win with them. Fun stuff.

Goth (VANILLA): You will play the goth, the freak, the shady guy. You have decent grades, but you wouldn't tell anyone because it would ruin your dark image you've built for yourself. You have no special powers. You are town aligned, and you win when all of the mafia have been eliminated.
Alt, im sure you were confused when I didn't just list you as a vanilla townie with the other five. Thats because you weren't one.
You were the miller, who thinks he is a townie, and is town aligned, but appears to be guilty if the cop investigates him. So if the cop inv'd you, you'd flip guilty, and probably be prosecuted and lynched. It is a very unique role, and it tilts the game a bit more towards the mafia.

Teachers' Pet (TRAITOR) You will play the teachers' pet, the suck up. You have amazing grades, but you always have to make sure that the teacher knows that you really care about that specific course. You know that two of the members of your class have been approached by the Faculty to eliminate the rest of the group, but you were not asked by the Faculty to do it yourself. However, you feel the need to help these two individuals (the mafia). You are the traitor. You win when the mafia wins, but you do not count towards the mafia count, meaning that they still need a majority without you to win the game. The mafia do not know who you are. You do not know who the mafia are. You are "town aligned" to any investigative units. You are mafia aligned and win when the town has been eliminated.
It is sad that Scav died night one, because he could have caused a lot of trouble. The traitor is basically the opposite of the miller, he is a mafia who shows up as a townie by cop investigation. Scav didn't know who the mafia were, but he could fake a cop claim, fake a doc claim, pretend important, anything.

Tomboy (MAFIA GOON): You will play the Tomboy, the female athlete. You have pretty good grades, but the real place you shine is in after school activities. You are in the mafia with the Stoner (Mediocre); the two of you have been approached by the Faculty to take out the rest of the students, because they are sick of the reputation of "teenaged drama island" they are getting around town. Every night, the two of you can agree on one person to kill. The Tomboy will be the one to send me the kill, and if she dies, the Stoner will send it. You are mafia aligned and win when all of the town has been eliminated.
Xsyven was the mafia goon.

Stoner (MAFIA ROLEBLOCKER): You will play the Stoner, the burn-out. You have pretty poor grades, because you're always baked and zoning out during class. You are in the mafia with the Tomboy (Xsyven); the two of you have been approached by the Faculty to take out the rest of the students, because they are sick of the reputation of "teenaged drama island" they are getting around town. Every night, the two of you can agree on one person to kill. The Tomboy will be the one to send me the kill, and if she dies, the Stoner will send it. You are the mafia roleblocker, meaning that every night you can also personally choose one person to smoke out with. They will not be able to make any special actions if they have them. You are mafia aligned and win when all of the town are eliminated.
Medi was the mafia roleblocker. I'm very glad that the RNG chose an experienced player and an unexperienced player for the mafia.
KevinM/Marshigio cop got an inno on Scav N1, which would have proven very nice for the mafia, but they killed Scav. Heh.
Lets see, what else... The BG protected the Survivor a few nights in a row, which I found amusing. The one night he didnt protect GoldShadow, he protected Medi, who killed GoldShadow. Funny.
The cop then got a guilty on Mediocre, but starting attacking Xsyven, the other mafia. I thought that was a very nice strategy, Marshigio.

Again, I'm very glad that everyone enjoyed it. I'm going to make a new signups thread for a new game, since some of you have asked for it, I would love to host another one.
Would you guys like to play it in the BRoom, or play it in Decisive Games?
