## A message from me...

This wiki is nowhere near being 100% of my effort alone only. Many people helped me along the way. However, some have not replied me regarding crediting or have preferred to remain anonymous. These are the people that remain nameless below.

The wiki wasn't originally my idea to begin with. Someone else invited me to help create the wiki they began work on, but progress slowed and contact was lost. I had to transfer the current work from that old version to this current one to be able to make admin changes. A huge thanks to this person for setting me out on this course to complete this wiki. This wouldn't exist if it weren't for you.

Another person, learning of my work on this wiki, wanted to help me out. They helped write some of the strategies for the roles. Although they stopped playing mafia a little bit later, I still need to thank this person for getting me started to work harder on the strategies for the roles.

To fill in the strategies section for the roles, I was helped by some of the most experienced players in the Official MafiaBot Support Server. Many users with the Level 45 Chads role on the support server helped me to lay out these strategies for me to write onto this wiki. Huge thanks to everyone who helped, as I would probably take much, much longer to complete the strategies section by myself alone. So many helped me that I can't even begin to list them.

One of the biggest "side-projects" of this wiki was to chart the full percentage matchup chart for every single weapon and defense. Certain weapons and defenses had special abilities and due to item classifications, this was not something I could assume and count by myself. These people (and a few more that chose to remain anonymous) were of great help to me, helping me test for ability activations and percentage matchups:

* Cyrobalt#8032
* Mistilyn#0380
* 🎃 SpookyCappu 🎃#0560
* Taolop#0420

Once again, another thanks to them as they had to use up their robs when they could've been robbing others to gain points. (Their usernames are not here for you to send friend requests to, just for credit)

Another part which I couldn't have done alone was finding past titles. As a relatively new player, old updates and old titles were out of reach for me. Thankfully, some long time player helped me find the titles in the records. A big thanks to them as well.

In real life, my friends were never down on me for working on this great project while I could've been playing games with them or chilling with them. They constantly reminded me this was a great experience and project. Thanks to them for their unfailing support.

Finally, a huge thanks to to creator of the bot, linkboi, for not only making this bot and all this possible, but also for helping bridge information blanks where certain info isn't available. Especially the math for the percentage matchup chart. Without that, I would be stuck testing around 1200 matchups manually with only 4 rob attempts each hour (and maybe a few extra from friends or voting). Thanks to linkboi again for this amazing bot and the extra help given.

There are certainly many people who have helped to bring this final wiki product to you. I thank everyone who has helped and wish you all happy reading and lying in mafia.
