...This can't be much weirder than the stuffed toy game...anyway, commercial jingles. I have a few ideas, but I still need help.

Village:
"Stuck on Bandaid Brand"- Protects one player every night.
Alarmforce- Picks a player every night and tracks who visits them. (I changed the role somewhat)
Marineland- Everyone loves Marineland, so they can survive one night kill.
The Laughing Cow- Has the option to throw a cheese making party once during the game, during the night. This cancels all actions that night. (I took this one from the cancelled Little Busters game.)
Generic Commercials- Can only vote for who to kill each day.

Mafia:
"Cones and Frozen Lemonade"- It causes its target to be too busy looking for a dollar to do anything that night. (Hooker)
"Cash Now"- Gives a player money every night to keep them quiet the following day and night. (Silencer)
Head-On- Technically not a jingle, but it can kill one player at any point during the day phase by posting "Head-On! Apply directly to the forehead" three times in the thread. Once this happens, all gameplay pauses until I confirm the death. Day phase continues after this. (Presumably, it's killing through annoyance.)
Weird Local Commercials: Can only vote for the night kill.
Anything else? What would be the mafia? Is this even a good idea?

I dunno if this means it's a bad idea or not, but I have no idea what most of the jingles you just said were.

Oh. The last two are Canadian, I believe. Alarmforce is a home security system, Marineland is a marine park in Ontario.

Ahhhh. Might be something to keep in mind if marketability is something you're concerned about.

I found an idea for a hooker. The "Cones and Frozen Lemonade" commercial. It causes its target to be too busy looking for a dollar to do anything that night.

At everyone wondering why I included Alarmforce and Marineland: I'm Canadian. This means that when I think of a commercial jingle those two come to mind fast. XD

The mafia would clearly be the most uncatchy commercial known to man: Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead. Head-on. Apply directly to the forehead.

Also, here's another jingle which I'm not sure how localized it is.

The Koolaid man could be a bodyguard. He's big and strong from jumping through walls. Or something. I don't know, man, but this game sounds cool.

Cash Now can silence a player for one day and night by bribing them with money.
The Laughing Cow can throw a cheese making party once during the game. This cancels all night actions. (I took this one from the cancelled Little Busters game.)

can silence a player for one day and night
Does this mean Cash Now is both a Silencer and a Hooker? If so, that seems a bit OP.

...Actually, silencing for both day and night is a bit OP as well, since any Cop would be immediately screwed because he can't even communicate at night.

It's not really that OP. The rules I have for Ventriloquist I have in Broken City and Broken City 2 both silenced the target until the day after, and if you think about silencing in terms of EM, you can't whisper (PM) at night anyway. It just gives the mafia a more concrete way of dealing with someone they don't want talking, instead of merely delaying it to the next night phase. I always kind of felt the day-only silencing thing was sort of watered down anyway, since it didn't completely stop you from communicating.

Because Im silly and assumed silenced at night=Hooker, since I've never played a game where the silence lasted into the night.

And okay, I didnt know that it had been done in EM and worked. Fair enough then.

....Can we have Billy Mays as a Town Crier?

Alright, I'll host this soon. In the meantime, I revised an old set up of mine (Altering old roles to close loopholes, nerfing the bulletproof, new roles) and want to replay it. However, I want to play this time around. Would anyone host for me?
