Pointers and Help

Here's some things you might want to know. They might be obvious to some, but some of these are quite unknown and might help improve your playstyle.

- You can whisper to people with the command /w name or with their number in the round with /w number. Use it to get allies if you find out someone is innocent.

- If someone is being a very bad jester, simply spamming chat with obnoxious messages, try muting him with /mute number. So far this only works if you're alive.. I'm afraid the dead people will just have to bear it. You might want to report the person too, to prevent him from continuing his bad-kiddie playstyle...

- You can look back at the entire happening of the round by clicking on the speech bubble up next to your Will. Dont worry if you missed something, just scroll up and double check. Maybe dont do it at day time though, you'll miss other things.

- As the Jailor, you may want to give every prisoner a pasword. When you're about to be lynched, say it and they should vote you innocent. Such a minor detail could save your life...

- People who leave the game at day time have their name in brackets like so [Lucy]. If you're a transporter, you can still put them to good use. Try switching people with them, as the quitters are more than likely not going to get targetted...

- Watch out for traps. If people reveal an investigative role, they are likely using themselves as bait for the Lookout, or they are in fact a veteran that will shoot anyone who visits them.

- Try to understand who you're playing with. People have a unique way of writing. Maybe there was a Smiley in the DeathNote that someone used in the pre-game lobby or during the round? Little things like that can make a difference.
Likewise, if somebody silent suddenly becomes a talker, it may be an Executioner who turned into a Jester or even a Mafia Disguiser!

- Never give out your role unless it is absolutely necessary! Jail is an exception, but during the day you can often just point out that the person accusing you could be an Executioner, and you don't want to reveal your role to not become a target.

- Revealed Mayors cannot be healed by doctors. Many people dont know this. And as the Mayor is such an obvious target, it may be worth attacking him anyways since the town may think an attack would be too obvious!

- The neutral roles are not evil! Jesters and Executioners don't have to be killed to win the game. But they might try to side with the mafia if they promise to help them get their goal.

- When you are on trial, don't be rude. Try explaining with logic or reasoning why you're "innocent". Point out for example that you havent found anyone evil yet, but you know that A and B are innocent. The evil roles very rarely stand up for others and doing so might just save you from being lynched.
