Game is ready for review ...

[Frozen Angel]

Ok I finished adding all the role pm's

what is the code for spoilering stuff?

I will add the feed backs section and the action resolution system and the rest of whatever is needed later.

[Cryptonic]

Can roles repeat, or are they all unique?

[Frozen Angel]

Can roles repeat, or are they all unique?

I was just thinking about it.

Mafia roles and NPC roles and Kirito and Asuna are definitely unique.
I want to randomly determine unique NPC's first - then assign the remaining mafia roles (some NPC's require certain mafia roles existance) and finally assign the town roles

but I'm not sure if promising unique town roles (beside Kirito and Asuna) is a good idea. I want to stay consistant and say yeah their unique too but I'm afraid of mass flavor claim.

[Frozen Angel]

changes 16/dec:

- Agil role changed so the visitor will be notified that a random player is NPC. I think its more appropriate this way.

- Sinon will only detect alignments, not roles. this change was made to make the mafia godfather role meaningful!

- Sakuya death - in case of trying to prevent a lynch of mafia - is not preventable.

- The OoO or my NARS is added.

[Frozen Angel]

Ok I'm done writing.

if there is any questions I'm here to answer.

and please give me your opinion about the uniqueness of the roles.
