This page is a list of the different types of victory messages in Town of Salem.
Most commonly, a win is achieved for a faction (Town, Mafia, Coven or any Neutral Killing role and some Neutral Chaos roles) once there are no living members of the other factions (killed, lynched or converted). Some Neutral Benign, Neutral Evil and Neutral Chaos roles may win independently of any faction because they have different goals.
A win may occur at the beginning of the day (after the nightly deaths have been announced) or after a successful lynch. The suicide (by leaving) of the last opposing player will not immediately trigger a victory. If all remaining faction members die at the same time, it is a draw by wipeout.
If there are no deaths in two consecutive days late in the game (days 5-7), a draw by timeout will occur despite opposing factions being left alive.
A kingmaker occurs when two opposite factions are left alive with one non-faction role, like a Survivor or Executioner. One simple occurrence would be a Godfather and a Serial Killer left alive with a Survivor. The game will not end until a draw by timeout occurs or the Survivor votes to lynch either the Godfather or Serial Killer.
A stalemate may occur when only two players are left alive who are unable to kill or lynch the other (e.g. a Serial Killer versus the Godfather) or one can prevent the other from killing indefinitely (e.g. an Escort versus an Arsonist). In most cases, this will not lead to a draw, but to an automatic victory for one of the remaining factions. This win normally goes for the faction with the lowest win rate. In one rare case, however, a Vampire will draw against an Escort.
Faction Victory 
Edit
A faction victory is achieved for either the Town, Mafia, Vampires or any Neutral Killing role if at least one member of one faction is alive while all members of the other factions are dead (by any means). In case of a faction victory, all members of this faction win, dead or alive.
Town Victory Edit
This will occur when the Town is the last standing faction alive when all members of the Mafia, Coven, Neutral Killing, and Neutral Chaos (excluding the Pirate) are dead. If a Vigilante is alive with a Witch, the game will continue until one of them is killed. The game will also not end if there is more than one Witch. A Transporter will win in a 1v1 situation against only a Mafioso.
Mafia Victory Edit
In a one versus one situation, any Mafia member win automatically against an Escort or the Jailor without executions. Additionally, the Godfather wins automatically against a Transporter.
Vampire Victory Edit
In addition to killing or lynching, Vampire can also win by converting the last Town member to a Vampire. In a one versus one situation, a Vampire will automatically win against a Transporter, but will be forced to draw with an Escort.
Serial Killer Victory Edit
In a one versus one situation, a Serial Killer wins automatically against a Transporter, the Jailor (without executions), the Godfather, the Mafioso, or a Vampire. This is due to its low win rate.
Arsonist Victory Edit
In a one versus one situation, an Arsonist wins automatically against an Escort, the Jailor without executions, a Transporter, the Godfather, the Mafioso, a Vampire or a Serial Killer. An Arsonist will also automatically win against most roles that have no way to stop the Arsonist so that the game does not drag on for an unnecessary amount of time.
Werewolf Victory Edit
Most deadlocks do not occur with the Werewolf, as they will kill role blockers, kill Transporters and bypass Basic defense. In a one versus one situation, the Werewolf wins automatically against the Godfather, the Mafioso, a Vampire, the Veteran or a Serial Killer.
Non-Faction Victory Edit
If all remaining faction members die in the same night, one of the following victory messages will appear. The message does not mean that all players with that role have won. Additionally, these roles may also win during a faction victory, even without their own victory message.
Witch Victory Edit
A Witch Victory is the result of at least one Witch surviving when all faction members are dead. This commonly occurs in Vigilantics, however, Vigilantics has been removed. Only the living Witches will win. Witches do not win during Town victories or during any draw, even if there are no Townies left alive. If the Witches have a majority over any rivals, the game continues unless either side is lynched or killed. In any situation with an alive Vigilante, the game will continue unless either role dies. In a 1v1 situation against a Vigilante without bullets, the Witch will win.
Survivor Victory Edit
A Survivor Victory is the result of at least one Survivor surviving during a wipeout. Only the living Survivors will win. Survivors can win during any faction victory. Survivors also win in the event of a Draw.
Executioner Victory Edit
An Executioner Victory is the result of at least one Executioner winning by having lynched their target on an earlier date. Winning by becoming a Jester and being lynched does not apply. The Executioner does not have to be alive to win. Executioners can win during any faction victory or a draw.
Jester Victory Edit
A Jester Victory is the result of at least one Jester winning by being lynched on an earlier date. If anyone besides the Jester wins, their victory message will appear instead. Jesters can win during any faction victory or a draw. This also occurs, in certain conditions, if the Jester is lynched and haunts a player with a certain role that causes a deadlock to be broken (e.g the Mafioso is haunted while being the last member of the Mafia).
Neutrals Victory Edit
A Neutrals Victory is the result of no faction winning except for multiple Neutral roles during a wipeout or elimination of all factional roles. Any non-factional neutrals that are alive will have their win screen shown. If multiple neutrals are alive, and at least one of them has won, this win screen will appear despite the fact that some alive neutrals have not won.
Factional and Non-Factional Victories in the Coven Expansion Edit
Coven Victory Edit
The Coven will win when they are the final faction alive and all rivals have been killed. Stalemates are not tested yet, but it is assumed a Transporter should win against some Coven roles, like Poisoner and Hex Master
Plaguebearer Victory Edit
This occurs when the Plaguebearer is the only independent faction that has won the game when all others have died, and has not yet infected everyone. The win screen used to appear when Pestilence won in general.
Pestilence Victory Edit
This occurs when the Pestilence is the only independent faction that has won the game, excluding all Neutral Benign and Neutral Evil roles along with the Pirate.
Juggernaut Victory Edit
This occurs when the Juggernaut is the only independent faction that has won the game, excluding outsider Neutrals.
Guardian Angel Victory Edit
Pirate Victory Edit
This will occur when only the Pirate achieves their goal during a wipeout or draw.
Lovers Victory Edit
The Lovers Victory can only be achieved if one wins with their lover in the Lovers Mode, while they are the last players alive. They must be different factions, however, such as two pairs of lovers with one being a Sheriff and a Godfather and the other a Serial Killer and an Arsonist. Only these two pairs will win. If a faction of lovers has a majority, such as three of the lovers in a two pair are Townies, then only the Town and that lover will win along with any outsider Neutral roles.
DrawEdit
A Draw occurs in two different situations. In both cases, only Survivors, Executioners, Jesters, Pirates, and Guardian Angels can win provided they fulfilled their win conditions. An Amnesiac or any Witches that survive a draw will not win.
Wipeout Edit
A wipeout occurs when all players and factions are dead. This means no members of the Town, Mafia, Coven, Vampires, or any Neutrals are alive. Those that complete their goal but are dead will have their win screen shown instead, and all other players will receive a loss.
1 Only possible if the Poisoner applied the poison the night before.
2 Only possible if the Poisoner applied the poison the same night.
Timeout Edit
The game ends because there have been no deaths for two consecutive days. There will be a notification on the preceding day when this is about to happen. If the Vampires bite the last non-Vampire Town member on a night where the game would otherwise end in a draw, the game will end in a Vampire victory, not a draw. Some matchups will cause the stalemate detector to end the game immediately, preventing a draw.
Stalemate Edit
In the event that the final two players happen to be of opposing factions, the stalemate detector may activate, rewarding an automatic win to one of those players or factions. If a Jester was lynched during the day, the game will not end the same day, because a Jester's haunt can break any deadlock (unless the Jester haunts Pestilence, in which case Pestilence will survive). Below is a table which lists situations where the stalemate detector will automatically end the game to prevent a draw. The list for Coven roles is not finished.
J If the Jailor has executions left, the stalemate detector will not grant an automatic victory to their opponent, and the game will continue.
V The stalemate detector is bugged and will not grant an automatic victory to the Vampire, allowing the remaining Town member to force a draw.
The current stalemates for all Coven roles are unfinished and/or unknown. This includes the Juggernaut.
