Bastard Mod

A Game Moderator who is considered a "bastard" by many (although usually not all!) of their players. This may be for a variety of reasons:

• They create/modify Roles which seem to imbalance the game;
• They create/modify Roles which actually imbalance the game;
• They create/modify Rules or Game Mechanics in such a way as to change the nature of the game;
• They otherwise don't do what the players expect them to do;
• They may lie to the players.

Generally, the intention of these reasons is to make the game more interesting, diverse, or challenging, and not to be a "bastard".

To avoid these, it is recommended for one's setup to be reviewed by a more experienced player.

Examples include Ashrzr's Hamlet Mafia (permission of Ashrzr has been granted to include this on here as a joke)

Sometimes they just use bastardly roles. (See Mini 827's role for CoCo)
