Go for it! I think we had all the related pages here for it anyways, and with Town of Salem 2 out there’s not much left for that one anyways.

Personally I’m at the point where a Town of Salem 2 wiki will work fine since I’m under the assumption development towards the first game will cease probably entirely, though the extra ToS2 stuff out here I will definitely support, though making a new wiki (which one already exists I think) is another fine alternative.

Wikis are meant to be, well, a wiki. Consistent and correct info! While we may have had fun socializing in the past, discord seems to have snatched at that opportunity, and FANDOM had 0 chance to keep up with it.

I don’t have the ability to directly promote you to anything other than a discussion moderator (which isn’t much to work with anyways) since I’m just an administrator, though I should clarify anything that needs to be added to the wiki can already be done with a bit of free time. While I’m nowhere near as active here as I once was I do still have emails toggled on for pings and still snoop around for anything major that needs done when I can find the time.

Really there’s little need for more moderators; if anything needs to be put together in terms of files or formatting just send the word and I can probably get to it.

I would have rather you put this on my or another admin/bureaucrats message wall however, rather than this category meant for major game or wiki announcements; especially if half the announcement is just you advertising all your discord servers which isn’t too jolly to look at.

@B345T1N355 At the moment we aren’t looking at anything moderator or administration applications or requests position wise, since it otherwise would’ve do much due to the status of the wiki. We haven’t had any major bot spam or alt accounts or harassment since before the UCP switch, which also knocked most mods and admins off the wiki pretty much entirely.

@Shut up exe

At this point I mostly consider the status to be as such if the user is contactable and otherwise still has *some* motivation to fix something if I’m not available. The biggest thing is that most of the wiki moderators and admins aren’t much focusing on the wiki at all any, mostly because there simply isn’t much to focus on. ToS is still rather quiet and we’ve got users like @SlabFoot20 spicing up the wiki a lot more than otherwise previously done.

Priority functions as the order of which roles' actions comes before the other. This has an effect on the outcomes and results of roles' night actions on one another.

For instance, the Transporter has a high priority. It's transport applies before most roles actions come into place, meaning the Mafioso's killing ability would come after the Transporter swapped targets. However, the Jailor's jaliling ability has a higher priority than the Transporter, so their jail comes first regardless.

This also applies to roleblocking roles; generally, roles immune to roleblocks tend to have a higher priority than the Escort/Consort themselves. The Veteran applies here, as it's immune to said roleblocks but not to transports, meaning they'll be swapped with another person, but if they alert, anyone who visits them anyway eats a bullet.

In Ranked matches, doing this drops your ELO by 15-30 points and otherwise forfeits any wins or losses you can do. For normal matches, leaving while alive is punishable via the report system if determined to be intentional.

I only know a case of one or two people that swapped to the official forum. The majority of people here don't swap anywhere, they just become caught up in IRL or other matters (Discord probably) or just stray away from ToS in general.

As Town of Salem runs a P2P model, there isn't much you can do to bypass that itself other than forking over the $5 needed to begin with. Each account is linked separately and each account requires the $5 purchase to play games; there is no loophole around it.

The only outlier is mobile, where you can watch advertisements to play some free games, but even this is limited.

Biggest move is to make a specific email address for yourself and yourself only. Nobody else can access your account if they just have your email; they also need your password at the same time.

Regarding the page itself, it is unnecessary in comparison to the fact multiple strategies already exist on the Executioner page itself (and these would be much better fitting to just place on there in the correct section), so I've gone ahead and removed it.

We also have a page dedicated to role claims in general, being the Role Claims Guide, which also can include this information, most of which just already existed somewhere on the wiki already.

If you have any further questions please contact me on my Wall.

The only other major breach regarding this was the January 2019 breach of which has been cleared up and fixed, as well as multiple repairs and backdoors removed. Otherwise, the game is not run through Javascript, and prior to the conversion to the Unity format currently in place across all platforms (which uses C# last I checked, even if it can run on Java), it used Flash anyway.

Unity tends to prefer C# as well, so I think we should be fine (and the developers otherwise would know and recognize any efforts towards exploitation in code)

Dissing on Sheriff because of its limitability undermines the point of the role. In chaos game modes, it's usually not that effective, but in competitive modes, especially with Ranked nowadays, it's a massive game changer with the right results.

Framers can only affect non-Mafia, and Disguisers only apply for one night. Despite Ranked having a confirmed Executioner, anyone can usually determine a good defense from a bad one and can help pinpoint an Executioner/framed target.

Anyone not suspicious is innocent or the Godfather (usually unlikely), and the odds of a Disguiser interfering are slim to none.

Pinpointing a faction as the Sheriff used to do is only slightly more decisive as simply "suspicious". What "suspicious" gives is an immediate sense of "this guy is evil, we need to find out what they are, and kill them now". With Mafia/Coven/SK/etc, I'd say you become less credible because of its decisiveness. Vagueness in the role implores people to want to figure them out over an immediate "They're Mafia".

Regarding Coven DLC roles, the only TI out of that is the Psychic, which is just an RNG-based evil/good determinator subject to player counts and repeated results. The good thing about it though is it incentivizes Townies to claim early and take up role list space, although at the same time risking exposure and demise.

Spy will always be powerful. The bugging ability is more of a confirmational aspect than something of massive use. Tracking who the mafia and coven visit deals enough damage to them already, and bugging gives them a little something more to do.

I actually think because the Spy can be limited in their wills with how they present their results, it can harm them, especially in chaos modes with both mafia and coven present. Add bug results into the mix and suddenly your will is a cluttered mess if you don't organize properly.

Roles should try to follow the format presented on the Making New Roles page as I have linked below. This can help you in your judgement when making a role so you don't forget to provide some certain important information or accidently create a role that has already been suggested/wouldn't work in-game.

The wiki is pretty dormant at the moment.

The lore contests were held directly by BlankMediaGames themselves through an entire competition process, as shown on the two pages we have for the past ones. Basically, a lot of lore is and will remain outdated until role balancing is complete, and then they can focus towards improving the lore for each role.

The Wiki Manager handled the issue and person themselves.

Having multiple accounts is fine, especially if you are buying premium on them. Not sure how the referral aspect works, since its basically a cheat, but as long as you only use one account during a game, don't use others to evade a ban, you should be fine.

Nope! Note that the Jester is part of the "Neutral Evil" alignment, whose goals directly interfere with the Town themselves. However, this also means that the Jester doesn't have to be killed for the Town to win. The "Must kill" section just refers to roles that must be eliminated for one's faction to win, and doesn't necessarily mean they are the only evil roles.

For instance, a Psychic might have the name of a player that is a Jester in their evil vision on odd nights, and Jesters only can appear in good visions when they are randomly selected.
