Town of Salem Game Forums

Considering the Unity beta has the reason of death in the graveyard now, why not give Forger the ability to forge that at any point in the game. As well as forging already dead wills.

Might be too finicky, who knows.

Well in my opinion this is a great idea since it can be such a mess for the town, but if they pay attention to the game it won’t affect it! I would say do it!

The point of chat log/graveyard is to make it so that you don't have to remember every detail that passes in a very fast-paced deduction game. Removing facts like that makes it to easy for evils to rewrite history and bully town around. What's great about being town is you get to feel like Sherlock, and you pick up on a slight discrepancy between a will and an evil's alibi. This is extremely hard to do if it can be erased after the fact, and even harder to convince multiple town if there is no concrete proof to present.

Like are you saying it's bad? Or that it's a great deceptive role idea? I can't tell lol

not a fan of the suggestion because it takes away towns ability to BE town. The gold standard of mafia deception is to trick town into believing a fake story, not deprive them of the ability to prove the truth. (which is why roles that mess with voting are generally frowned upon)
