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

Oh do you mean that if sidekick and super are rolled, the two are not actually partners? if so, yes you should randomly side the sidekick in that instance imo


there's a paradox like you noted if sidekick and villains are paired with each other. maybe i can just make them pick another random village / mafia player instead?


always, or just if they are both rolled?

actually, neither of them will have a partner or nemesis without any third parties. i made sidekicks, villains, and maid forbidden roles to be chosen from. but, in the case there are no thirds left, perhaps i can have them side randomly with mafia or village?

So I discovered that supervilian can have a sidekick, and the two don't share a meeting, so I decided to mess around with it.

https://epicmafia.com/game/6797962 They both lose if both alive when village wins.

https://epicmafia.com/game/6797966 if supervilian dies and sidekick lives and town wins, neither super nor sidekick win.

https://epicmafia.com/game/6797980 if sidekick dies and supervilian lives and village wins, both still lose.

I think supervilian being able to have a sidekick introduces a kinda paradox where, if both present, they both lose by default. Imo super shouldn't be able to have a sidekick.

also can you please unrestrict the text colors a bit? Specifically, I'd like #FEBE10 for my alt (a simple gold)

One thing I'd change is make it so that if there isn't a partyhost, partycrasher becomes one. Right now, partycrasher is kinda useful as it relys on another role that might not pop up.


*sips from Cthulhu mug* Tell me more about that.

Lucid pls do that before you leave. Do it for sandbox. Show us love.

Also make sure Psycho Cop (https://epicmafia.com/role/8536) works, and can it be given an icon? I can even whip up something basic. We are really wanting these roles working for a stickied sandbox setup.

Can you please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please fix Funnersmith (https://epicmafia.com/role/4827) before your hiatus? Currently, it ends up not giving guns when visited, and is in mafia meetings. It's a really simple role. It just gives anyone who visits it a gun. Also it needs its icon back.

I think we should remove that partypooper new role.

And

Make party, chef meeting, blizzard meeting work like day time, allow people to use guns, knifes, snow ball etc ...

PonyGoodlight says

Psychiatrist

- Can choose any role available in the setup (Like werewolf and tailor does.)
- Chooses a person during their "Psychiatric" meeting.
- The person will receive system messages relevant to the role that the Psychiatrist chose (If I chose Blacksmith and went on PonyGoodlight, it would say that they received a vest.)
- Sided with the mafia.


Anyone have any feedback on this?


How would this work with investigative reports?


The system message would only display if they were that corresponding role, and if so the Psychiatrist would have an additional option when pressing that suit to choose which they want (ect. If they choose sane cop they can choose Village/Mafia, or if they choose Detective they can choose any role in the setup. Same with psychic.) The person would get 2x reports, but does not know which one is the fake. Obviously for psychic it'd mechanically appear as 1 report as the Psychiatrist visited them, and they'd only receive the fake one.

I feel as though that balances it out rather than having it completely over-write the report and being a more over-powered hooker.

Example:

PonyGoodlight

Psychiatric Meeting:
Choose a player: Golbolco
What role will you manipulate?: Sane Cop
Alignment?: Village

If Golbolco is Cop, then Golbolco will receive 2 reports, one which is real and one that is fake (xx person who Golbolco visited is sided with the Village.)

Like I said before, to help new players, pls add these:
1.Add tutorial mode, aka games with only AIs with basic lines.
2.Add /role and /help and /hint in game
3.Halve the number of ranked game u can play each day. Add 1 extra heart for each rank win. This encourage people to play unrsbked games more

can you make it so you can't kick players with less than 5 games from unranked games? People are rude and scare away new players. even better you can stop them from kicking all no avis


people will just make new accounts to evade being kicked at that point


this site is dead. I spent 1.5hours this morning trying to play game 1 and I kept getting kicked like all of em by coldie. I could not host a game. If I was actually a new account, then there was no way that I would have ever continued on this site after like 10min of this even. you need to do something to keep the new accounts here when they are being treated like this always! the no avi/noob hatred is too much and the new players will leave over it

wilI says

And maybe a minor one would be having snowqueen blizzard effect always active past n1.

(this way party crasher is viable with the snow queen.)


Can you elaborate on this one?


Snow queen in it's current state is a night wide roleblock for a night.

This makes it kinda hard to build around because it's either too strong or too weak. (IE it'll be used as fast as possible vs any infestigative role.)

This change makes it so that finding the snowqueen is important, and it has uses in setups with investigative roles. It also keeps with the theme of being off before n1.

Also party crasher is a good role vs snow queen with the change.
