Thanks for doing this, Iron Ham.

I'd add roleblocker to the roles, as it's a pretty important and common role for both town and mafia. I'd also add PGO, as that's a fairly common role too.

Also, maybe you could have another section on more uncommon or less prominent roles: e.g., busdriver, bodyguard, bomb, jailkeeper, the infamous and hated jester, etc.

EDIT: I tried repping you, but apparently I need to spread more rep around first.

Roleblocker I would add, but less promienent roles and PGO I personally wouldn't. Methinks it's better just to have the basic roles down so that newbies won't feel overwhelmed by all the different roles. The less complicated the better.

The way I see it, newbies are going to have questions like, "What's a PGO?"

I agree that the FAQ shouldn't overwhelm them with information, but I think that could be handled by putting the more common roles (e.g., doctor, vigilante, roleblocker) in one section and breaking out the less common roles (e.g., PGO, jailkeeper, jester, busdriver) in another, separate section.

Updated.

As for the uncommon roles, I might put a glossary at the end... but again, that means it's Wall-O'-Text time, and that would intimidate new players.

This is the part I think needs fixed. Mafia and mason groups can talk.

Fix'd

Thanks for all the help, everyone. I hope this can be useful for all the new guys.

You forgot "Rokk is always EEEEEEVIL!!!!". It helps the Newbies understand what's going on and saves JackA from pointing it out.

4 Rules of Mafia.

1. Rokk is always EEEEVIL

2.Doc is always EEEEEVIL or neutral, but never on the same team as Rokk

3.JoH will always disagree with Rokk

4. Vicious-X can always nightkill...ALWAYS

You forgot:

If DocDoom dies night one, HAM IS EEEEEVIL!

(I'm waiting for you to die night one so the mafia can blame it on me, even if I'm a townie/etc.)

You didn't read the Acolytes game did you?

I did.

I figured it'd be funny to be stuck with Doc when they always assume I'm the one killing him!

You forgot:

If ABF doesn't roleclaim, he's evil.

lol.

Fixed it for ya, mate!

Are there any JK specific rules, or do I transcend classification?
