    Naming defaults to random after a second name fails.

    This is the wierdest bug I've ever seen in a mafia game.

    Firstly, when the game started, I Serial Killer, (not to be confused with Serial Klller) didn't appear in the text box for night actions or voting.

    Secondly, when I voted guilty for one of the trials, it didn't show my vote at all on the tally.

    Thirdly, and very stragely, on night 2, the game randomly said that I had been killed by the mafia , even though the mafia couldn't (and didn't) target me. My body didn't show up in the graveyard, and when I went into dead chat, I spoke as the person who WAS killed by the mafia(Travis something).

    I read in some other thread a few days ago of a bug that Vigilante kills showed up as 'killed by mafia.' Maybe the vigilante killed you and this was the case?

    As of the two other ghostly bugs... You obviously hacked...

    The first just seems simply that you can't target yourself for your night action, and can't vote yourself for lynch during day.
    Second, you may have just misclicked and not voted but you thought you did.
    Third sounds like a Disguiser killed you.

    I'm not stupid. I watched the replay before posting this.

    For the first, its not that I couldn't target myself. My name didn't appear to ANY of the players. I WASN'T ON THE PLAYER LIST!!!
    Second, I didn't misclick, and it didn't say "Serial Killer has abstained" it didn't mention my name at all.
    Thirdly, once again, I checked the replay. There was no disguiser, no vigilante, and none of the mafia targeted me.

    Actualy watch the replay before you post things like this.

    From what I see on the replay, right at the start: the random name generator renamed you to something else. It says Taddeo Travolta was accepted.

    I can see that you named yourself as Serial Killer but I also see that you tried to enter something else as an error showed up about only allowing alphabet letters. I can't see what you were inputting but it may have erased your previous name and therefor renamed you.

    LOOOOOOL this makes sense now. Phaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaail.

    This has happened to me before. Pick a name, type something else by mistake and it'll just rename you. Except you had a herp derp moment. you have been trolled.

    Re: Very Strange Bug

    Considering that neither of you took the time to watch the replay before speculating what went wrong, I sometimes wonder why you even post in here. To be honest, I'm surprised it didn't keep his previous name myself, so I have no problem looking over something like this. If DR thinks that it's something that can be avoided with a simple fix, I'm sure he'll do so if it doesn't take too much code.

    I'll lock this since the bug has been found.
