Hello everyone! I would like to ask the people who are interested in this event to participate and contribute as much as possible.
In order for 2 new roles to be added to em, the community has to work together to refine the ideas that are going to be mentioned below. We have to collectively select 2 of the best ideas and make sure their version is the best one possible. The next step would be to come up with some sort of artwork for the selected roles. Lucid mentioned something about rewarding the users behind the artwork that would get selected in the end for those 2 roles.
Jack the Ripper (originally Hypocrite)
Jack the Ripper hates anyone who kills.
Jack the Ripper only wins when the game ends and all murderers are dead.
If Jack the Ripper receives a gun or knife and kills someone with it, he will not consider himself a murderer.
To Jack the Ripper, murderers are killing roles or any other player that has successfully eliminated someone else (shot, stabbed, blown up, etc.)
If a player survives one of these actions, Jack the Ripper will not consider the attacker a murderer.
(~Jennings)
Cat Lady
Chooses one player every night. The player is instantly alerted that a cat is at their door. They have two options: Kill the cat, and let it go. If you kill the cat, you are roleblocked and the Cat Lady doesn't know who was visited. If you let it go, the Cat Lady learns your role.
Sided with the mafia. (~Her)
Robinhood
Visits two people, taking all items from the first and giving them to the second (cannot visit self either way)
Action fails if trying to steal from a mafia
Sided with the village (~Torreador)
Vice President
If the president dies, takes their place
All townies immediately receive a message of their new president
Attends mafia meetings, and makes them anonymous
Cannot win if they are the vice president (~Alyssa)
Gossiper
Chooses one person every night.
Will see some whispers this person receives/makes.
If lynched at the end of the game, the last mafia can guess who the Seer is for autowin.
If the Seer dies, they will appear as a random (non-mafia) role in the setup and their will will always be blank. If dead, the mafia can still attempt a guess to the Seer's identity at the end of the game.
If there are multiple Seers in a game, only one Seer will know the mafia at any given time.
If there are two mafias and multiple Seers, the knowledge of the mafias will be split between them.
Sided with the village. (~Shwartz99)
Whistleblower
Once per game can force someone to vote someone else. Vote cannot be OT'D if it is a hammer. Sided with maf
(Will create more tension in selfing/hammering based setups (~Moldyches)
Soldier
If they are the last man standing against a single mafia or third party, the village wins.
Sided with the village. (~XFire)
PowerTown
Each night chooses a power role from the options provided to him. (the mods should determine the list)
Night meeting goes accordingly
Sided with the village
PowerMafia
Each night chooses a mafia role from the list.
Night meeting goes accordingly
Sided with the mafia
What is your favorite role mentioned in this thread?
since reports are huge deal for some of us... i suggest adding a little mail icon on top so people to know what mail they got and a sperate section for the reports and the forums.
Mobile players prefer to just press play and join a game. This is why ToS copies are so poppular.
Best idea is to have a menu with 3 main options : Play, where a certain setup will be filled. Thats for super average players. The player will either join an open setup of this kind or create a new one if open one does not exist.
Second option : List of setups where the entire lobby will be shown without th competitive games.
Third Option : Competitive that stays locked untill players reach the ammount of points required.
This sounds good enough for alpha version. But we need to figure out what setup will be fun enough to represent the site as a whole.
Tell me what you think of this as an idea, and everyone else are also welcome to give criticism.
well, i'm game to build any mobile app as long as it is specced out well! do you think just being able to login and get through an entire game in one lobby good enough for starters?
I am not an expert but... From what i can tell, just you being more time on the site helps tremendously. Your presence really influences the community.
And of you can check the lobby message board : We really need an app version of the game. We are living in a digital age and things improve constantly. Having mobile friendly version that people can use on the fly would increase traffic. It can pull lot of people from the android and apple stores who have never playes before and if we had actual working discord it would make sure those new players get help and they can give even more ideas. I am speaking from personal experience.
Hey Lucid, Is the site still a hellhole filled wirh racism, trolls and hatespeach, or you are still hard ignoring everything just to add few more weird roles that will never be used outside of sandbox?
I mean, i was away for a while and hopefully thing have changed and every part of my sentence is wrong.
yeah, i may be open to an official category for these fun roles. maybe i can call them accepted custom roles and get actual icons and build them into the game
As I understand, Commuter is kind of a controversial role. Here's a suggestion I found from Ozzyman on its page on how to fix that:
"Tell me if I'm wrong, what if the commuter can choose whether or not to roleblock? There could be "commute?" option for the commuter, which means that anyone who visits them will be roleblocked. Then the commuter can decide whether to roleblock everyone, but miss the chance to get gunned or investigated, or not roleblock, but then run the risk of being killed. It could give this role more versatility and be less annoying for mafia and town alike. Tell me what you think"
