This is a terrible fucking role.

It is just a killer with the retardedness that it can n1 end games like creepy girl. Really?

The role really needs to start at a different time. I think it has promise, but right now I hate how, if he hits a third, he autowins. There's no skill involved, only dumb luck.

night 1 wins are possible for town and maf in various setups. there is no reason to "fix" this, as even if these roles were used in comp lobby (they aren't), points aren't distributed on night 1 ends.

I don't think winning N1 is that big of an issue, seeing that the chance for him to win N1 is same as , if not less than, that of the creepy girl(multiple people can die N1, while clockmaker can only kill one person per night). If you really think winning N1 for clockmaker needs "fixing", then it's only fair if you "fix" creepy girl as well.

Wow. I don't know why the starting time was changed from 8 to 9. 8 is much better, it isn't an Auto-win night one. plus i had some more idea's for this roles time strategy and points and i put it in the forums and Lucid didn't change it... please see my forum post Lucid.. http://www.epicmafia.com/topic/39252
Theres a lot of tweaking that needs to be made on this role. and it shouldn't have been made so soon, because its only made people mad.

N1 Autowin needs to go away, this is rather bullshit.

How would this role ever reach 1 if they die at 6 and only mafia kills decrease the time?

I think this role can be very interesting in certain setups. Clockmaker has to kill based on who he thinks is town/mafia/third party. Can add a whole new level to the night kills.

agree with brobat

Ok first of all, how will he EVER die by the clock getting to 6 o clock. He'll need to have the stupidest luck in the world if he actually manages to kill 2 mafia, so unless someone kills him off, he's never going to die. Think the kill time needs to be tweaked a bit

@Brobat, thx, exactly my point. I really don't get what Lucidrains was thinking.

Yay! I helped with this role!

Due to the way in which his clock is set up he favors shooting town roles over Mafia roles almost 100% of the time. This is basically an overly complicated Killer role with extra win conditions, bonus lives, and a mafia bias. I hate when lucid adds stupid stuff like this instead of NEW and INTERESTING role ideas.

I think it seems too mafia sided... Its like a killer basically, but with more win conditions, that specifically does not want to target mafia. Third party shouldn't be so incredibly biased towards one side. Other than that, I like it.

@Nomasaurus Look, I didn't really mean to bash on it since it's necessarily not a bad role. Sorry if it sounded like that. I was just suprised over Lucidrains decision to create it. But hey, since the majority seems to like it and I belong to the minority then I guess my opinion is invalid ;).

the only part i don't like is the whole clockmaker dies leading to 2 day countdown. why is that necessary?

~~~~~~

Consider that this role is the most complex one in existence, and requires true strategy to fulfull the win condition. It also allows the player to choose: Win through skill, or attempt to win through luck.

It seems Mafia sided if he's dissuaded from moving the clock back by killing Maf. Interesting premise though, plussed.

6:00 Am or Pm for his effect to kill himeself?

I personally think any time from 6 am to 6 pm should kill him so he has to be a little more strategic.

Loving this role idea so far btw.
