Ok, thank you for your kindness to me, and respect to my ideas. Retributionist doesn't mean anything in our language. And he turns people back to life. So I decided to give the role a more common name as possible. But it came a little weird to me. "Diriltici" is fine by me.

Survivor is better as "Sağ Kalan". I realize it now. "Hayatta Kalan" is a longer name, and it's unreasonable. Let's agree with that :D

I saw the Godfather as "Baba" in a lot of places. And I thought to myself, "Did they REALLY translated "Godfather", just as "BABA"?". And I didn't look at the whole picture. "Mafya Babası", is the best translation for the Godfather. (Let's admit it, "Baba" wouldn't work.)

Mafioso as "Tetikçi"? I would translated is as "Mafya Üyesi". And I think it wouldn't be mixed with Sheriff's interrogation. Because that would be "Hedefin mafyanın bir üyesi!", and not "Hedefin bir mafya üyesi!". And it would be fine! But I don't think "Tetikçi" is a terrible translation either. Let's make it "Tetikçi" If you really need to.

Investigator as "Dedektif" is fine too. And Consigliere is a direct translation from the Italian, as I see. I translated the card game as I said on my profile. I translated the Consig as "Araştırmacı", because that would make sense on the players' head. If you are the "Araştırmacı" you make "research" about them, and find who they are (Open their cards.). So please let it stay as "Araştırmacı". We'll find a way out for it not to be mixed with "Kasabalı Araştırıcı" (for those who can't understand Turkish: Town Investigative).

Jailor should be "Zindancı" Jailor litterally means "Zindancı". (İngilizce - Türkçe

And, Jailor itself is an outdated word. In the description,it explains that they are a prison guard. "Gardiyan", would be the correct translation, if the roles name was "Guard", or "Prison Guard". It must be "Zindancı".

Veteran's "to be on alert" abilty does sound better when it is translated to "nöbet tutmak" on my opinion. But if "tetikte durmak" or "uyanık olmak" is the correct translation, then I can't do anything about it.

There are places where "bloklamak", is used instead of "engellemek". I just wanted to use one word instead of two. And for the players who are new to the game, and players who can play Ranked (or  Dereceli {perfect translation, thumbs up right there}), "bloklamak" will be more known.

The perfect translation of the word "abstained", is "çekimser", I agree. But I think "kararsız" fits better to the game mechanic of Voting.

Disguiser is "Kılık Değiştirici", yes, but "Kimlik Hırsızı" while sounding better, is a shorter translation. Let's discuss about this.

"a private eye", must be "özel dedektif". That's just perfect for people to understand. I don't even know why did I change that. It's not the word to word translation but SOUNDS BETTER (see what i did there :D ).

"Kudurmak" is fine. But I think we should find something else.

Once again, thanks for sharing your thoughts about my thoughts with me. Let's meet via some platform. We can make this translation faultless together. See you around the Wiki, nameless Fandom user!
