I think I've learnt not to be so hasty with voting haha
Nooo! fast mafia is good mafia
@BigNose, I agree that there was balance. Would you have allowed for two massive scum teams had the pickers all gotten lucky?
I think if that had occurred, I would have included a 'You cannot state who your Twin is' which I originally included, then removed it while tinkering.

I think the game was thoroughly enjoyable, and as it happened probably sort of balanced (probably a bit in favour of scum, with the possibility of it being either slightly pro-town or heavily pro-scum depending on how people chose twins).
Also, having a large proportion of the players knowing how the twinning mechanism worked, except for the power roles should have made it very easy for the scum to identify those roles.
Part of this game was understanding the Twin aspect, as everyone had some knowledge of a Twin, although not necessarily who they were. So, each Doctor was told 'you are a Selfish or Selfless Doctor' and the Cops were told 'You are either a Sane or Insane Cop'. The hint was there.
Your right, I also though the game was slightly balanced in favour of Scum, especially when Roband picked Zid and made even worse by the other Twins picking Roband, hence the reduced voting totals required each day to lynch. The Power Roles only really came out because the Twins outed themselves, thus leaving the other Scum Team members and non-Twinners as potential Power Town.
Note: If you have an ability, it might not be a good idea to shout it out ASAP and be wary of any that do. I think 1 of the Twins held back their twinning with Roband, also E_E shouting about the Selfish/Selfless Doctor didnt help. Notice that upon death, I only revealed Cop or Doctor, not which type.
Town came so close to winning at 1 stage, as during N3, Lataro and Zid were targetting NegativeOne (Scum) and NegativeOne was targetting Zid (Scum). This would have left 3 Town and Lataro and Roband outed as Scum.
It is only because Lataro changed his mind, by sending a second PM NK, that the game changed (again).
