Wait. Wait. What the hell.
You're changing roles. During the game. How is this not bastard?

This is meta playstyle mafia. It wouldn't make sense to give someone someone else's role. As long as the game stays balanced it's not going to have any negative effect on the game. It was not specifically in the rules, but the rules say I have ultimate say in what happens during the game.
Update: The rules have been edited to reflect this policy.

What, then, if someone replaces out after they've used a PR ability? Then we'll never be able to account for that. Or if they're not changed, then, we'll know that they have a PR which has been used? This just doesn't work.
Of course it has an influence on gameplay! You can't just change everything during the course of gameplay; that ruins our ability to doanything!
If you mind the flavour, then just have his role be "SoraAdvent, Third Party Replacer" or whatever the previous role was!Now she's in purple, now she's the turtle~

TBF, Maenara, I agree with you completely.
But I think it's either an issue for endgame discussion or one that should've been addressed pre-game.- Maestro

- Don't discredit me, unless you say why, my post didn't suck because it was true.
@Everything - This is a whole pile of wut right now. Nacho still isn't town because his claim only makes Chk townier.. and doesn't give us much of a reason to drop from his wagon, with the exception that now we don't have that "cop guilty" or "watcher guilty" possibility from Chkflip that would nail Nacho right on the bat.
Since the nacho lynch isn't as 100% anymore, and no offense Chkflip, I would like to lynch Bitmap first not only to 100% guarantee OmNom a role, but also since I've never had success in leashing non-town players, it rarely ends well in a lot of situations.

no, this is why mattp is suspicious of me
why do you think my investigation proposals were scummy?
- Because you were suggesting obvious scum investigations. They were a complete waste in the first place, and Mehdi refusing to do a Trollie investigation was purely her trying to appear more town because she knew MattP would eat her alive for it. Not to mention she was also largely influenced by the Toog claim, which also would've looked bad for her and that wasn't what she wanted.a sad fuck- JacobSavage

I'd like to know why the assumption is that because Jacob got a role tailored to him it's all of a sudden different than Sora's role.
Suppose Sora's role was "Protective Guardian" and it was a Doctor Role because he was constantly standing up for weaker players. And then say Jacob's role was "Interferer" and it also was a Doctor Role because he's constantly trolling and interfering with game flow. The roles are essentially the same, but each would be tailored to the player instead of some generic Doctor blah-de-blah role.
Why the assumption that Sora went from something like Cop to Jacob going to something like Vigilante? Roles could have already been made before Monkey even researched us, and then he just tailored the flavor to match our meta.
Not saying this is how it is, but seems a little bit over the top to immediately assume the game is bastard without knowing what both Sora's role was and what Jacob's role is now. Hold off on lynching the host until you know what's going on, and don't just assume the worst.
Obviously, my confidence in the Nacho wagon happening at this point is low, so the best play is to just take care of Bitmap since we know he is anti-town. Also, Monkey replied to my inquiry of whether or not I get killed if targeted for death, and he said the effect still happens despite the "instead" qualifier. So feel free to kill me scummers.
