Name

Before starting Day 1 of the game, you are allowed to choose an alias of how you want to be referenced for that particular game. This retains anonymity for players to reduce meta-gaming.

The name may not exceed 16 characters and can contain spaces, but no numbers, any spaces at the end of your name, symbols, or consecutive capitals/spaces. It also cannot be similar to another user's selected alias or contain any profanity.

Strategy

 * Always choose a good name with correct capitalised letters. (If you have an bad name and you are a Jester, you may be in bad luck still, because the killing roles may kill you at night.) (eg: i luv salad, joe dablawgs, lololol)
 * Do not use names that are religious, racist, sexist or targeting someone in anyway. (eg: Black Jesus, girls sux, Kill Joe Bloggs)
 * Do not use names that are too complicated, too plain, or stupid. (eg: ldhwlkdch, Sesquipedalian, i will afk)
 * Do not use names that are names of Roles. (eg: Doctor, Witch, Jester)
 * Do not replace lowercase 'L's with capital 'i's. (eg: Fl (L) ower/Flower, FI (i) ower/FIower)
 * Do not use names too similar to another player's. (eg, Tempestral and Tempestrel or Jack and Jackk)
 * While naming in themes is OK, dont bring roleplay into the actual game (dont vote to lynch Voldemort just because you're Harry Potter, don't share info with Fluttershy just because you're Rainbow Dash etc.)

Background
These names come from the infamous witch trials in Salem, Massachusetts. During this time, countless men and women were accused of being witches, and were lynched over the mass hysteria. The names came from the priests, judges, and witches involved in the event. There is a play based around the Salem witch trails, called The Crucible.
