So town of salem just came out with an update and I wanted to share some of the new roles that they released and see if any of them would be a good inclusion for our humble little site
Pirate-A Neutral Chaos [hostile third] role that must plunder [kill?] 2 players to win. This is done by way of a really cool UI specific to this role that uses reverse rock paper scissors logic.
Guardian Angel-The Guardian Angel is a Neutral Benign role who is assigned a target they must protect for the game. They are able to Heal and Purge that player twice per game.
Psychic– A Town Investigative role that will be given three roles ever non-full moon night at least one of which is evil
Medusa is a Witch role that is able to use her gaze to turn people that visit her to stone dealing a Powerful attack. Players that have been turned to Stone won’t have their role or Last Will revealed.
Poisoner-The Poisoner’s attack is a delayed Basic attack that takes one day to take effect and can be cured by any heal after the initial visit.
Crusader– A Town Protective role with the ability to protect a player each night giving them Powerful defense, but will use a Basic attack against another visitor at random.
Tracker– A Town Investigative role the Tracker can select a player every night to track following them and seeing who that player visits.
Trapper– A Town Protective role the Trapper has the ability to place traps at a player’s house that will trigger on any visit.
Ambusher– Our first ever Mafia Killing role since the release of the game this role has the ability to wait outside a player’s house and ambush one visitor dealing a Basic attack. The Ambusher’s name is revealed to anyone who visits the same target as the Ambusher.

By signing this you agree that ToS has better and more original roles than us poor players on epicmafia.com
mafia isn't lucid's intellectual property and tos mechanics dont resemble em mechanics closely enough to call it plagiarism
all you can argue is stolen role ideas but those role ideas don't really belong to anyone since they came from players and the players never agreed to anything or claimed any rights
I guess you're right but either way nothing would happen. Role authors didn't really foresee ToS straight up copying roles, though technically people could start licensing roles if they wanted.

HonestLiar33 May 17 @ 6:14pm Huh, not sure why this gives me the unending feeling to play Throne of Lies... Maybe its because this looks to be exactly the same thing as the cult? Hmm...
Maybe if you guys gave the ability to draw our death notes or something, I would be interested.
But as it is, no, I am not going to PAY for an update that is CLEARLY ripping off your only competition, and I will urge everyone I know who plays it, to do the same.
(googles throne of lies)
(after googling throne of lies looks what i can best describe as an attempt at making a mafia game on roblox but they somehow managed to get it ported over to steam)
