Anti-Scrolls

[Daemon213]

Can we get some anti-scrolls added? Scrolls that will reduce the chances of getting a role rather than increase them?

How would these work? When would they be consumed? I personally think anti scrolls are a good idea, since they would make the game better for everyone. The main problem is that they could be used to metagame (if someone uses anti-evil scrolls, they will be more likely to be trusted).
My suggestion for them is that they should decrease your odds of getting the role you don't want for X amount of games where the role can spawn.

Here's a list of all the threads suggesting anti-scrolls, if you are interested: https://www.blankmediagames.com/phpbb/search.php?keywords=anti+scrolls&terms=all&author=&sc=1&sf=titleonly&sr=posts&sk=t&sd=d&st=0&ch=300&t=0&submit=Search.

That's a good idea. Instead of being used each time you get a role like regular scrolls, they could be used for say 1 game or perhaps 3 games. Nothing permanent, but if they are only used for a single game, perhaps they should be cheaper in the store than regular scrolls since they will be used more frequently.

How would an anti-scroll meta be worse than regular scrolls? If you're known to use Town scrolls you're more likely to be trusted. Normal scrolls only last for one game, but they have a much larger impact on the chance of getting a certain role than an anti-scroll would.

I think anti scrolls are a good idea.
But I believe the anti scrolls meta would be worse because you can only have up to 3 scrolls, which are useless if the role of your choice can't spawn anyway. Anti evil scrolls would increase your chances of being town more than 3 town scrolls.

edit: I just noticed I was speaking with factional scrolls in mind, not role scrolls. I do think factional/subfactional scrolls would be great. But if we only consider individual scrolls, then I guess there isn't that much of a difference between normal scrolls and anti scrolls.
