However, one thing's for sure, don't make the name anything political, this should not be called Democrat, Senator, or anything among those lines. Apart from that, /support.

Thanks. Do you like the name "Patron" or "Ally"?

No, not really, in complete honesty. Naming a role can be difficult sometimes. Do you like the name 'Mimic' or 'Mime'?

I'll do Mimic.

The role name got changed to my suggestion, what an honor.

Apparently everyone else thinks otherwise.

This is way too confusing with some stuff being mimicked from a-b and some from b-a, or are they just examples and everything done on either of them are done on both of them? It's not too clear.

I agree, I really like the name wellwisher. Mimic doesn't really seem to fit it that well. Sorry for making it harder for you to decide on a name

Everything happens to either of them happens to both of them.

That sounds better, and in that case it's like an NE transporter (I assume that's what you're going for) but buffed( or nerfed depending on the situation), so this actually sounds pretty good.

I actually loved the name Wellwhisher, well i still like the new role names you come up with!

Yep, it is. I will change it back.

Wellwisher: one who wishes well to another: an admiring supporter or fan
-Merriam Webster Dictionary
Yeah, I don't see how the name 'Wellwisher' matches this role's abilities or attributes. Though there's nothing wrong with the relation between a role's name and its attributes being a bit loose, it should be present. There is nothing that links the name 'Wellwisher' to what this role is and does. It's important for the flavor text/lore to be accurate, you can't just name a role whatever you want just because it sounds better...

Well balance > Lore. All the lore you need if you really want it is "Wish at night at the wising well that PlayerA and PlayerB will be connected. Honestly the name has been changed enough and it doesn't need to change again. I think its fine and so do a lot of other people. Besides its not too hard to come up with how the name connects with the lore, like I said above. If it was named "Jet fighter" or "US navy seal" Or something weird like that it would need a change, but it's fine.

P.s. I like the name Wellwisher

If you REALLY have to change it again, do something like spiritualist I guess. The only other name I think would be acceptable with the role without making it weird.

But I still like Wellwisher

'Wellwisher' does NOT mean someone who visits a wishing well. Did you not read the definition? It means someone who wishes someone to do well.

Well it could really go either way depending on what OP meant it to be, dictionary doesn't really apply.

I can't really see what the big deal is with the name. It's fine as is.

What about equalizer or distributor. Because you distribute the actions and you make everyone take equal consenquences. Not a perfect name but wellwisher seems kinda off topic and i must say i dont really like it.

Distributor seems to fit the game better. I will add distributor!

I think I'll stick with DIstributor.

We got Kirize's Drug Dealer. We got Distributor. That does it. I'm inventing a role called the narc to fish these roles out.

Wait, why is that necessary? What's bad about these?

Thank you! I'm glad you like my role.

This is the first role idea I have seen on this thread to gain this many replies (5 pages of discussion) in one fucking week. I am actually jealous, not going to lie. You have done a really nice job. I tip my hat to you Wind

Thank you so much! I hope you see more soon and maybe even make one or two yourself!
