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.

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?
- Can visit a player each night and give them a nut. - Sugondese nuts will perish after 2 days pass. - While someone is holding these nuts, being killed being killed will reveal a random player aligned with the role that killed them. - Sided with the village.
@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!
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?
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.
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.
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
