I'm debating that, it doesn't really get information about anyone and isn't that powerful alike Medium so it's in TS for now

idk, something just seems kinda meh about it.

Like: mysterious visitors (aka Mafia) = Isn't that what spy does? And spy even does it better.

It's kinda like Orange's role idea Osservatore, which I liked better.

Umm, ok but could I have a reason why?

Kirize12, this isn't Mafia:the game.

Miller

A miller is a regular town player except that they come up mafia-aligned when investigated.

I'm suggesting to make it flip mafia because it needs some sort of temper, given how it can become very powerful and should stay a great scumclaim.

Ok then, I'll see how it does with it

I don't support it, because there's something out there that already does the job it does.

And ESPECIALLY no support for having a town member appear as Mafia to the Sheriff.
No. No. No.

Either give reasoning, or don't say anything.

You're still not giving actual reasoning. Why is having a Townie appear as Mafia bad? What does this job?

I might be mistaken. I thought what Kirize was saying was to have it as a Town role, but appear as Mafia.

She might have meant just make it a Mafia role instead of a Town one.

And if it is a Mafia role,
you should check this out:

Kirize means it should be a Town role that shows up as Mafia, because a Mafia member that gets interrogated can claim Miller.

Miller is a really easy claim, easier than Lookout and Medium in some cases, and it's too strong to be a TS without it appearing as Mafia to the Sheriff.

It's kinda like Orange's role idea Osservatore, which I liked better.

Mysterious visitors = Mafioso, MD, MS, NE, NB, NC
Spy visitors = Just Mafia

Spy's ability is limited to only Mafia which is bad because without Mafia it's power's gone (a hard counter to Mafia) but the Miller's visitors cover a broader range

Also the Osservatore is a Mafia role which has no abilities linking to the Miller and Spy is toxic anyway

Because the role gets little information easily so it needs another drawback, plus it can be a good claim for the Mafia

You receive how many visitors visit your target and how many visitors visit that aren't Town or NI

Also, why does it flip Mafia? A role should only flip Mafia unless they are or framed, if you wanna give it a powerful drawback give it bad invest results like Miller, Doctor, Serial Killer, Potion Master, Disguiser results.

It seems quite underpowered in my opinion, its a worse lookout that can spy on more than one person at once. Can you tell me why this is a powerful role?

I suggest changing this to Town Investigative because it's a reworked lookout but gives mafia a better scumclaim.
This role is great for mafia scumclaim.

Pro: - Know the amount of roles that visited, See how many of the roles are evil.
Cons: - If the target leaves the house it could mess things up. Comes up as Mafia to sheriff.
Best Case Scenario: You target 2 mediums and all evil roles in the game visit them.
Worst Case Scenario: The sheriff finds you night 1 and gets you lynched day 2.
Overall Impression: Other then the comes up as mafia to sheriff this looks good to me.

i mean i ment the OP is prolly active since hes a mod and since hes active so much so it might be ok to necro bump

the other way around makes no sense slightly can necro bump cause he's a mod so he's allowed to break the rules? why would i ever say that lol

gotta read the context and the way that makes the most sense

The necrobump wasn’t a necrobump because it sparked discussion concerning the topic at hand. With that sorted, please could you stop going offtopic or take this conversation elsewhere, thanks. Also thanks for telling me I’m a Mod, I didn’t realise before.
