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.
  • Gossiper's action does not count as a visit.
  • Sided with the mafia. (~Soluciones)

(revising) the Seer

  • Knows all mafia from the beginning of the game.
  • 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

i actually learned Ghost (and played it in real life) with someone on the site i met IRL at a cafe, true fact


That's so cool wtf

like the game existing on here by chance happenings, and the fact that it was one of the most played minigames is really neat


Jotto was the same way! I met Schmeur IRL in Vegas and he taught me the game :D

Ah ok Her, yea, I can definitely switch cat lady to another name (though it may require some site downtime). I just need someone to come up with a new name and get me an icon. Sorry, I didn't know you wanted the idea for your own work.


I almost met Shmeur irl before. I had him on FB too

The role image always showed. I think the person was just talking about the role not being told in the sys messesage.

@giga, turns out there was a bug in the code for the suicide timeout, making it only work on the second suicide. i think i fixed it so trolls can not immediately join after the first suicide. let me know if it is working or not.. thanks!

Icon complete


nice! i'll make the switch by next week's end, may need like 20 minutes of site downtime to switch out the role id

@shayne, the suicide / vegetable message should be fixed. however i noticed that the role image is properly being revealed, is that not working for you?

Oh Honey...
Delay a Town Powerrole as QueenBee each night.

Have the player you gunned shoot mafia as Partycrasher.

Spectre sport
Win the game on your own as the Phantom.

God proposes
Win the game as mafia the night of a rainy day with rainmaker.

Reincarnation
Be revived as a necromancer/ressurectionist.

Friendly fire
Cycle a mafia kill onto itself.

Running in the 90s.
Roleblock 3 people as the commuter.

I tried. These are the best I could do with half puns/quotes.

Oh yeah and

"Kingmaker"
As king hammer mafia/thirdparty and still lose the game.

My suggestion for the Cat Lady rebranding would be The Urchin. I've been wondering about what an urchin role might do, and honestly... kinda works for this.

The urchin wants to say in your home. You can either let them in and be roleblocked, or kick them out and the mafia learns your role.

I might try working on an icon for this, but no guarantees I can pull it off.

Also can we get a different trophy system for Survivor lobby? Farming games is sad thing! And people like their pixelated trophies..

Yo, Lucie. You gonna change the Cat Lady's role name, or you still just responding to it briefly before dipping out of the chat again?

It solves the problem of me not liking you stealing from me, and Golbolco having too much of a grudge to want a role fix. :D

Just rename the role and remove the part where it credits me.

Ghost's great. At least with good players. Can be really easy to hint too hard. I see Alyssa do it every time. :3

Ghost is genuinely one of the best games on the site, next to Battlesnakes. Your friend has good taste.

Let us kick people from minigames as long requestsed

Or at the very least let us kick from Ghost since people who join to ruin the game are there the most. That's a large issue with this minigame is people outing the word then quitting, it's the reason on why some people stopped playing ghost altogether.

(Following suit Tiramisu, Dice Wars, Texas, Acrotopia, Cheat and Battle Snakes are games that can take quite a few players to start that could use this as well, to prioritize them over 2 player games.)


yup can do, man can't believe people are still playing what i built in a weekend so many years ago

Why can’t we see the roles of the people who suicided in a game? it throws us off not knowing.


Pretty sure this is a bug as a result of the new graveyard changes made.


This isn't a bug. It never showed roles for sui's and vegs (I'm assuming they're asking why it doesn't say like x, the fool, commits suicide.)


yea i'll fix this
