I somewhat disapprove of the new roles.

Does the bodyguard get to choose which of the three actions he does? or is he assigned them?

Why do you disapprove?

It's assigned. The whole point being that I can assign different weights to the roles this way. For example, a bodyguard who guards against multiple attacks is less powerful then one who kills the attacker, so they'd have different weights.

I mean, we have a ton of roles already, and I don't want this to get more complicated than it already is.

I think I agree with Webadict that Silent Specter is bad, unless they had access to Dead Chat as well. Otherwise, they are essentially relegated to lurking, which they can do without a role anyway.

It's basically a lame (Or rather, a dumb [har har]) person. Just do an unknown role for a ghost. Also, do we ever find the body of the ghost? And it turns out the killer combo doesn't work. I thought Operative got an item.

What if the town ghost can't send or receive PMs?

I think the dead chat should just be a discussion chat...

Forget the medium... it only helps town too much.

I don't know. It helps, certainly, but I'm not sure it's as powerful as, say, an Agent.

dude... What's the point of kills if you do NOT shut up a player?

and it's one more unique claim for town...

I still think that if you MC on day 1 you can easyly find scum.

Perhaps its time for another Role vote. See what things people want in and what they'd like to see go.

If you have any questions about a role, check out its description on the First Page. If that doesn't answer your questions, just ask.
