    I thought the players of mafia theme was created in July or August. Well, earlier than that but the latest one during those months. If you're my mortal enemy because we don't like each other, you should have a lot of teammates. I only hate idiots. Oh whoops, the majority of players are idiots! My bad. So, you're saying that having the ability to inspect is useless? It's just like plutonium and no one likes to have that in-game. So now no one will like to have SabrinaXS in the Avengers theme. Making a new theme every few months would be nice. What would be cool is if you added new abilities based on.. how they act? Idk it'd be cool though.

    Professor Oak
    [secret]"role": "mafiaboss1",
    "translation": "SabrinaXS",
    "side": "mafia1",
    "help": "Known to win games singlehandedly by pretending to be innocent. Use your Psychic powers to /inspect, or your meatshields to /distract, during the night. During the day, /kill those who stand in your way, especially Kogent.",
    "actions": {
    "night": {
    "distract": {
    "target": "AnyButSelf",
    "common": "Team",
    "priority": 1
    },
    "inspect": {
    "target": "AnyButTeam",
    "common": "Self",
    "priority": 31
    }
    },
    "standby": {
    "kill": {
    "target": "AnyButSelf",
    "msg": "Kill someone now using /kill [name]!",
    "killmsg": "Sabrina used Psychic. It's super effective! Foe ~Target~ fainted!"[/secret]

    Inspector OR hooker, AND a samurai? Stupidly overpowered. "This guy is inspector, killed." It's far too obvious that you made the theme - this character needs nerfing. You might be able to get away with hooker + samurai alone, but it still seems a bit overpowered.

    [secret]"role": "mafiaboss3",
    "translation": "Professor Oak",
    "side": "mafia3",
    "help": "You own this place. /protect yourself at night and /kill by day. Show them who's boss.",
    "actions": {
    "standby": {
    "kill": {
    "target": "AnyButSelf",
    "msg": " You can kill now using /kill [name]: ",
    "killmsg": "~Target~ was removed from the game by Professor Oak!"[/secret]

    "You own the place" needs to be changed to "You RUN THIS PLACE". Furthermore, I request that the role's name is changed to Prof Oak and thus all mentions of the role is changed to Prof Oak - I don't like the unnecessary flashes, and I will disable the theme if it hasn't changed by the time it's added (assuming it gets approved). Furthermore, you cannot self-target as the bodyguard - and I think that an unstoppable night role with a day kill is overpowered. Bodyguard + Samurai is not as overpowered as Inspector / Hooker + Samurai, as stopping a role completely (bar WW) or finding out exactly who to kill / not kill is a lot more powerful than protecting one of your two teammates.
    If self-targetting at night becomes allowed for bodyguards, this role will also be overpowered.

    Sort them out.


    Additionally, I'm still opposed to this type of theme completely. It's simply a case of knowing the right person, or being well known enough to get in the theme. I don't like it - and the same goes for its predecessor.

    I think you can use ZWSP in the middle of the names. If you don't know what it is, it's a 0px width space. It is used in the mute/kick messages currently to not to make them flash.

    She could find either inspector or anti-kuja or bodyguard and then kill them in the day...

    Yes Scott, I'm already aware of the flashing issue, hence the massive "OMG DONT APPROVE THIS" I pasted in the approval thread soon after posting..
    ZWSP for anti-flashing sounds good. I still have to go over each person on an individual basis to see who would like to not be flashed though.

    I suppose Sabrina's night action can be switched to protect "anybutself" like..
    Slim, we've got work to do. Devide the list in half-and-half and we'll go ask people if they want no-flashing or not.

    Alright, completely redone my post due to severe ninjaing.

    About the flashing issue, I won't be flashed by merely Cake, but if it ended up changed to Professor Cake I wouldn't mind being flashed.
    Can I make a few edits to my help and messages things?

    Something like:
    "help": "Professor Cake, your shadowy lab awaits. Who do you wish to /kill? Watch out for Cake Syndrome, however, you don't want to die on the first night.",

    "hookermsg": "You tried to distract Cake...wtf is wrong with you?! You were stabbed with a pineapple.",
    "msg": "~Distracter~ wanted to see you but you were angry and stabbed them with a pineapple!"

    Sorry if I'm being too demanding and/or it can't be changed now x3
    And lol, I get to stab Freddichio with a pineapple for teasing me over losing battles. MUAHAHAHA.


    Oh, and of the four villagers at the top, Jaxen, Cirno and Darkkis are in team 'village' and Magma is in team 'village2', is this intentional?

    But you're shiny and golden.
    What kind of description do you want?
    *siiiigh* So much for a male PL role..

    I'm giggling at how many silly errors we've got all over the theme either way. Ozma and Serp are clones/best friends so it doesn't exactly make a difference but.. Anyway.

    Silly holidays y u full of events to attend? Let me have time to fix Avengers plz.

    I say keep Fred as PL because (I think) LadyHoliday can protect LordHoliday, and I can stab Fred with a pineapple. WIN-WIN

    And there was a thing about an 0 pixel wide space that would work x3

    More players of mafia edits!

    http://pastebin.com/Uq6LmGq0

    I've made a couple of changes, on Sab's request. I've fixed Ozma's message, replaced Salamence with Maxrevive, and toned down Sab slightly by removing her teamreveal and making it so she can accidently TK. Not a major nerfing, but a little one nonetheless.

    Most importantly, though...

    I've added in the ZWSP into all characters names, kill-messages, and everything. I didn't know exactly what would activate the flashing, so I added it into all name things. So the flashing problem is fixed, Sab is a little less borked now, and yeah. Thank Vid for sending me the unicode link xD

    Hopefully a lot closer to being approved xD

    EDIT: Uploaded the wrong version. Fixed now

    What's the point of having me in there if I'm only going to appear in games of 11?

    (22:45:15) ±Role: d_b​lan
    (22:45:15) ±Ability: Vote counts as -9999. Sided with The Avengers.
    (22:45:15) ±Game: 11 Players

    Kind of sucks, can that be fixed?

    O..kay. No idea, since Slim took care of the role appearances & idk since there isn't an easy way to fix this. I've to get Hobbes to look at this.

    There's obviously a lot for Sabrina to sort-out so guys try not hound at her for not letting you into her theme or simply not having the space. Let her sort the problems first and see what still needs doing.

    On the contrary, my Tiger Friend, Mafia Channel has been attracting more and more attention. It got close to full last night, if I recall, once.

    So it appears that Hobbes and I have fixed the missing roles, Ozma, d_blan, Chinchou, VictorCD and darkcrimson.
    That seems to be all the problems for now, so if you have anything to report on ...
    :3
    I'll be back in a few days. Love you all.

    I have 2 suggestions for when you make the third.

    1)

    Please fix the crashing (if possible.) Whenever I play avengers, it crashes once every cycle (about.)

    2)

    Don't do an inclusion request for entry, do it with nominations (you have a much higher chance of getting well known people, plus its more fair.)

    i.e. I nominate SabrinaXS to be in Avengers 3.


    P.S.
    I've been playing mafia everyday now for about a month, and I have yet to see you once... do you still play? (it's also scary becuase if you never see me, I'll never make it into the theme. :3)

    Themes like this turn mafia into a popularity contest >.> Everyone would suck up to whoever makes a theme like this... and some roles don't even make sense (Kogent and Chaos on the same team?!)

    Also, as you can see with this, if you were to include everyone who is at the least somewhat active, it'd be hard to actually make a good theme with so many roles... it's not really balanced at all.

    Probably because the theme is crap Cake. Poke hit the nail on the head, it's a popularity contest. I've played with Sabrina enough. You either have to be liked by her or suck up to her to get in.
