Don’t forget that that doesn’t mean that Masochist or Fool are good
Honestly I’d be more inclined to see a defense of these roles
When I have time tomorrow I’m planning to write something up, but for now, what do they add? How are they fun? What do they accomplish?
That’s fair. 
I plan to make a post about this whole thing tomorrow. I probably should have before it bacame a vocal issue, but w/e I hoped maybe it wouldn’t come to that
I think fool is well designed. It gives a reason to think twice about people acting suspicious, so you have to figure out the line between someone being scum and someone being too scum.
But that’s inherently flawed. If somebody is acting scummy, you should probably lynch them. If somebody is scum, lynching them should be good. Fool destroys both of these core foundations of the Mafia experience. It is considered a “bastard” role for good reason.
I still feel as if it adds an extra layer of complexity to the game and it wouldn’t be nearly as enjoyable without it.
Id be inclined to just nerf fool and get rid of masochist. Unlike orange I do like fool but atm the penalty for lynching one is far too severe.
FoL is a community not a proper game. Do polls and stuff to see what we all think and take the actual players input instead of doing it all behind closed doors which only helps in giving an inflated sense of self-worth.
