Not sure if this is the best place to ask but can the original poster or anyone post the correct Alignment for roles that are wrong on the role list on the site? Such as Transporter. Apparently it isn't a town protective....so what is it really supposed to be? And any others as well that might be wrong.

Currently the only wrongly tagged role alignments are

Executioner: Tagged as benign but really evil
Jester: Tagged as benign but really evil
Mayor: Tagged as town power but falls into the Town support category

Fixed that last one for you, Magna. Also, I just added my guide for the Retributionist.

Anyway. I have a question for you guys, and I need a second opinion on this. If a guide has what I consider to be a sizable amount of offensive/harmful/misleading content, would it at all be out of line for me to turn the author's guide down for the directory?

I don't exactly have rules for this because I wasn't sure where to draw these lines, or even if I needed to (because I didn't expect to discover this in people who write guides) or even if I wanted to (because I'd be refusing to include a guide in the first place, denying access to information).

What do you guys think, if this were to happen?

Really? I thought all powers came across as support. Thanks for the new info. In regards to a guide containing offensive material I would say unless it's in the interest of humor you should deny it. I also know in my guides alot I tell people to prey on the stupidity of others because It's a genuine fact that people make mistakes that should be exploited. I don't mean this to be offensive to other players but rather that it's inherent in humanity to make mistakes. I mean In my videos I make mistakes alot of the time and I wouldn't expect them to go unpunished. I would also advocate a zero tolerance policy for racism.

Harmful material is pretty subjective. I mean if a guide tells you to physically bully another person I would never accept it under the grounds of it being a bad guide as it's physically torturing a person to gain a win which goes against the inherent core of the game and is a bad strategy anyway as it makes you liable to hate lycnhes and hate deaths. So yes I would also deny a sizable amount of guides that advocate harm to opponents or sexually explicit tactics especially considering the amount of underage players I've come across.

Finally Misleading content. I would accept a small easily recognizable mistake that the players can work out for themselves but something massive like saying the Mayor gets 3 votes without revealing or something game altering I would advise them to change it before it can be accepted. It's going to be up to your personal preference as the topic creator i'm afraid Rick but i'd be glad to look over submissions if you need second opinions..

Yeah. I'm not sure what made you think Transporter was a Town Power, Magna. That's the first I'm hearing this. The role card clearly says Town Protective (and when you think about a good use of Transporter, it effectively is just this), but it falls into the Town Support category in the Lobby.

Leaving us with the following mislabeled roles:

Role Card versus Lobby Host labels: wrote:Role Card <-> Lobby

Transporter: Town Protective <-> Town Support
Mayor: Town Power <-> Town Support
Retributionist: Town Power <-> Town Support
Jester: Neutral Benign <-> Neutral Evil
Executioner: Neutral Benign <-> Neutral Evil

To be frank, I don't agree with any of the lobby labels. In my personal experience, I would side my views with the Role Card ones.

As for the guide that caused me to ask this question? I'll send you a private message, as well as with a few of my thoughts...

Would anyone like me to write a guide for the Lookout?
Nobody's touched on it much and I figured after recently winning 10+ games with it I could offer some advice. :)

(Plus I'm new to this whole guide writing thing so feedback is appreciated)

Prestigious list? We generally welcome everyone's guides here. :)

Thanks for the inclusion. Added your lookout guide. Also added Magna's new Veteran guide.

Added OneTwoFive's role guide for the Serial Killer :)

Also included are several of Magna's videos, like Veteran, Jailor, Sheriff, BodyGuard, and also included are pointers on Lobby hosting.

Sorry for the hiatus!

You don't need permission to make a guide. Just you can ask Rick if he can put it in his thread.


Perfect.

I'm going to have to let go of some of my secrets tho. ;)

This has not happened yet. Quite frankly, Magna, you are the only person who ever messages me guide requests, with the exception of one other person, once. Speaking of which- Magna, have I accidentally misplaced one of your guides? If so, please just resend it again- I may have lost it in my inbox.

As for everyone else, please remember the OP that I made at the start of this:

If people have any guide requests, suggestions, improvements, or even if they want to add their own guide links to here, I'd be more than happy to honor that request and add those to here. Feel free to private message me about this as well, if you're shy

Because, quite honestly, Magna is right in that Forum Mafia has more of my attention now. Then there's the fact that not even every guide made makes it way to this part of the forum (we have some here, but some only in the New Players section) so I'll be very dead honest in saying that I'm not going to be patrolling this highly active forum for guides that could end up bumped to page 2 here, nor will I search those guides made in the New Players forum. I'll link the ones people request me to add.

TL;DR: If you want me to add your guide, PLEASE message me. If I don't respond the first time, please message me again so that I don't end up losing it again.

I'll be updating the thread again once people get the chance to resend their guide links to me. It's not that I'm ignoring this thread on purpose, it's that I'm not searching this thread and this forum like I used to, and for that I'm sorry. For now, please just message me all link requests.
