During Murder I've noticed a lot of people don't like to be murderer, and ask to be shot. This can make the game boring if the person constantly gets murderer, as the rounds will never have any action in them. If possible, you should add an option that players can pick that will turn off their ability to be murderer.

Pros: This will make the game-play more enjoyable to those who don't want to be murderer. This will also open murderer up to people who want it, but can never get it due to the people who don't want it constantly getting it. Finally, this will lengthen rounds, and open up more time for players to enjoy murder instead of the round ending instantly do to someone no enjoying being murderer.

Cons: This may make it so that there are no people that want to be murderer in a game. I also don't know if this would be hard to code.

I'm going to agree but only to adding a option to making it less likely not completely removing it. Mainly because making it so the person that selects it can't be murderer can be a little well abuseable and exploited.

Yet no ability to be more likely murderer as it's not needed.

If a player asks to get shot their murder chances either way do decrease by a little bit, adding this option will make it as TimeLord said abuseable and exploited in one or the other way and it just sounds too much a work. In most cases, murderers are asked to get shot because they're too laggy + it helps out the person who shoots them so it's a win win situation and I do not see any problem, depending on your karma and skills you'll get murder.

So I have to disagree, -1.
 
Im sorry but this just doesnt seem like a good idea. I don't exactly have a reasoning, its just kind of unfair. Because if theres just one person who wants to be murder, and the rest dont, then it gets boring for the person whose always murderer. Of course there isnt going to be many situations like this, its just kind of meh. I also agree with @Fresaa it benefits both murderer and innocents as she said it can make the murderers game laggy, and thats even less fun. Sorry, -1

I do not entirely agree with this, if you have a group of friends playing with each other- even in streams with MCPZ- someone might see you with a compass out. In which they'll think you are choosing not be murderer, and eliminate you from the list of people. If you did this, a group of friends facetiming could hear you and perhaps see you. I just don't like the idea.

Adding an option to not become murderer would in turn, add an option to be murderer. It would be kind of useless if you just implemented a way to not be murderer. Adding onto that, choosing your own role would defeat the whole purpose of the "chance of being [role]" on the right side bar, which is all based on karma.
