INCREDIBLY LONG THEORY HERE

BOLD FOR TLDR, TLDR SECTION AT BOTTOM

Okay so we all know the founder is TheOneCloudMan.

For those who don't, or need a refresher course, TheOneCloudMan is the guy who created the wiki, and suddenly dissapeared after only 2 days and 21 edits.

They joined March 22, 2014.

They do not respond to any messages on thier board and basically do not exist.

For those interested in the history of the wiki as I am, there is a person with Bureaucrat rights named TurdPile

For those unfamiliar with TurdPile, he is an Administrator of Town of Salem, but not an actual developer, and one of the few people officially connected to both Town of Salem the game and Town of Salem the wiki.

They joined March 22, 2014.

They lurk on the wiki, and respond only to thier message board upon direct request. As far as I can tell, they share the idea with Naru that, while the wiki should be loosely connected to the game, only people who have been granted access to official game and its forum should have control of the wiki, and as such, the wiki should not become officially the ToS wiki even though it essentially is.

This is why Uli is an Admin and Yami is a Crat. Yami is a Global Moderator on the forums and Uli is not.

In any case, I did some digging on TheOneCloudMan, and the last message ever sent by our founder was to TurdPile, granting TurdPile Crat access.

So, based on those three pieces of circumstantial evidence, I have assembled this possible sequence of events.

TurdPile wants to make an informational database for the game, seeing the best way to do so is on the wiki, as the wiki provides free storage, and the Forums is run by a server, paid and maintained by BMG.

To distance the wiki from the game, most likely to create a break so random people do not have so much control over something that could be so official, but possibly to create a break between the wiki and BMG forums, TurdPile creates this "TheOneCloudMan" persona to create the wiki, makes a few edits to make the person seem legit, and then hands off power to himself, leaving TheOneCloudMan never to be seen again.

Obviously this is makes a lot of logical jumps and is based on "facts" that could be simply coincidence, but it is atleast something that is cool to think about!

TLDR;

Founder: TheOneCloudMan. Joined March 22, 2014. Low edit count. Last post was giving the wiki over to TurdPile.

TurdPile: ToS Forum Admin. Joined March 22, 2014. Appears to not want wiki to be directly connected to the game.

Theory:  TurdPile creates TheOneCloudMan to seperate game from wiki.
