[Mindbender Update 2]

* Mind bender cannot be infected, culted or stolen. Trying to steal or convert the mind bender leads to death 100% of the time.

* As the mind bender, players under your control disappear from your action list so long as their role remains a villager. If their role changes to anything else they will show up again in the list and you can try convert them.

[Veterans Update]
Something that has been neglected for a while is our veterans group. This is a place for experienced players to get together to enjoy playing in a relaxed environment with other experienced players.

As a way to try get people back into the veterans group if you have over 500 games, every 100 games you play you will receive a reminder about the veterans group.

[Mindbender Update 1]
Mind bender is now available inside the below game modes:
* Mighty
* Chaos
* Wolves
* Max
* Normal
* Custom

Balancing update:
The weight of being controlled by the mind bender have been completely redone.

[New Role - MindBender 🧠]

As the MindBender, you possess a unique and powerful ability—to alter the very wills of other players. With this power, you can transform any non-villager into a villager, swaying them to your side and strengthening the village's numbers. But be cautious! Your influence is fragile. If you die, any players under your control will revert back to their original roles, potentially turning the tide against the village. Your survival is key to maintaining your control and ensuring victory for the villagers. Will you bend the minds of others, or will fate bend you?

This role is still in early development, it is only available in Custom and Normal games.

There are weights to how likely each role can have their minds bent, these weights are still being tuned but range from 0% for existing villagers to as low as 20% for some roles and 70% for others.

While this role is being developed it will only be available to sponsored groups.

[Random button]
In 2 scenarios there will be a random button, it may be removed completely in the future or expanded. When clicked it will randomly select a player for the action

Until it's determined if a random button is good or bad for the game, it will be behind sponsored groups.

Scenarios
* When you are lynching someone
* If you are wild child and have to pick a role model.

[Alchemist Update]
The alchemist role will be going back to the old system. The role has 3 days to brew a potion and then can give it whenever.

This is available to all groups

[Update to sponsored groups]
The conclusion of this heated poll is this:
* Sponsored groups will sometimes, when I feel like it, get access to special roles, features and game modes alongside being at the top of group list (which they already have).
* When these features are applied the exceptions for how long they will remain sponsored only will be disclosed. If you would like to sponsor a group you can use the /sponsor command.
* If you want to see if a group is sponsored when a game starts 🏆 will be at the end of the start message.

For the time being sponsored groups will actually just be my beta testers, getting features that are still in development and being proved. Once I am happy with the feature it will be released to everyone.
