Vigilantics Mode

I know a whole lot of people who have mentioned that they loved (or still love) Vigilantics, but there are never enough people playing it to start a game. That’s why I believe this is a good place to start.

I believe this is a good place to start. The Vigilantics gamemode is much past its prime especially after the gained their magical barrier. The will either kill themselves in a few nights because they’ll be controlled into each other or hit an immune, and no one will trust others because they will all claim. While I don’t have a new role list for this game mode, we should work together to make a new one; revamp it into a better role list.

My suggestions:

Add a or two. The  can use them for protection when they find them, or a  can get lucky and heal a  from dying.

. Whether we make this into specifically or  specifically, it shouldn’t really matter. can add swing, and they can protect themselves from being shot. can remember roles that they choose and add some extra spice to the game.

Feel free to suggest other roles to possibly be added into this gamemode below!

The 

The has been getting bad rep for a good amount of the time that I, and many others, have been playing Town of Salem. But whether you agree or not, allow me to continue.

Inexperienced, lazy, or gamethrowing players will use the with no strategy and “random-shoot” a player early on, which has a higher chance of being a. They also just use it as a way to get rid of other players that annoy them. We’ve all seen that before. This is extremely bad, and we don’t want to lose two for one mistake. We should all agree that the needs a change. Not a big one, but still one that will help.

The, after executing a member, still becomes an important and easily-confirmed roleblocker for the. The revives their target and becomes easily-confirmed as well. While they can’t do much afterward, their revived target can, no matter what they are. The is, however, still a vote for the. That’s still extremely important, even if they did just revive another.

The only commits suicide the next night and often receives the worst insults for, accidentally or not, shooting a  member.

My suggestion:

Give the the same guilt as the .

I can’t find any cons to this. Unlike the and, you can’t be instantly confirmed. You are still a vote for the. You can spend all of your time on scumreading if you want to, much like a or, because you don’t have to focus on anything at night.

If you can have any other thoughts on this idea, feel free to say them below!

The 

The is a powerful role. We all know it’s a hardcounter. We all know the are probably screwed when there’s more than one or two of them in any role list. But let’s talk about some of the reason why that is.

can read the, forcing the to rarely or never talk at night. For the ever-changing faction that is the, it’s one of the worst abilities for the to have. Newly-converted can’t say what role they used to be to the others. That’s one of the most important things. If the catches what a new  used to be, they’ll be watching out for claims, and can plan to kill those claims silently in the night without ever even revealing themselves. Additionally, they can’t strategize over who they should bite.

Since all the (except for the ) and the  can die from a single bite from a, they should never want to intentionally kill a. The could be the downfall of either faction in just a few nights, so keeping the  alive, and sometimes calling out  in the day, is one of their better advantages over them.

My suggestion:

Make it so the can’t read the .

This buff will be so important to the. They can speak freely, just like BlankMediaGames wanted the to do. That’s why they removed the ’s ability to read the.

An All-New Gamemode

The only time are ever used are in All Any and Custom. My complaint for this is that the role lists are commonly unbalanced and/or made by inexperienced hosts, with more than enough. While this idea has been suggested before, I think we can find something good for a change.

First off, many users have over-stressed that there need to be more -aligned roles, such as a Dracula. While quite a few people like the idea, I don’t like the idea of BlankMediaGames spending so much time on the five or six roles that have been suggested. It’s just not worth it in my mind. However, I still think it IS worth it to create a specific gamemode.

My role list suggestion:

Here’s a lengthy explanation of the reasons why each role/alignment is in this list.

Let’s start with the. The, first off, is an authoritative roleblocker that can execute known or other evils. The, for obvious reasons, is the sole killer of the. The can narrow down between  and non- fairly easily. The and  are authoritative roleblockers, and the  can also execute known  or other evils when needed. The can catch on to visits and narrow down  and the  and  fairly. The is the one to find the, specifically, and also be a helpful hint to the. The two slots could be anything from  to, which will definitely help in saving  against the. The can become a second, but also a  for shooting non-, and the  for tricking the evils in any way needed.

For the, the is there solely to control  such as the  away from killing , or the  for finding evildoers. The is to give  some help with the, since there is no possibility of a. There are two (as alternative to one) to lower the chances of the game ending early because of the  possibly dying so easily. The is there to prevent the game from easily drawing because of the possible lack of nightly kills. Whether it be a or, the  can both be helpful to either side. The is temporarily night immune and can be a claim for the  or, and the  can remember any role, giving a big surprise to the game. The slot gives this the largest mystery. There could be a second role, another, or a different role that can add an extra layer to the game.

Alrighty! Now that my suggestions are all done, let’s get to the discussion! Let’s hear everyone’s thoughts and I will edit this when needed.

Thanks for reading! :P
