** The game got a bump in customers (paying on Steam) after the trio of WebVideo/{{Markiplier}}, LetsPlay/{{Jacksepticeye}} [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and]] LetsPlay/LordMinion777 did a LetsPlay of it (with the video being posted on the main menu).

* AscendedFanNickname: The Hex Master succeeding in Hexing and killing every other non-coven was referred to as a [[FantasticNuke "Hex Bomb"]] by players. In the sequel, this became the official name for the event, being referred to as such in the Hex Bomb cinematic.

* WordOfDante: For the ''Town of Salem'' wiki, at least. Before the [[http://town-of-salem.wikia.com/wiki/Summer_Solstice_Writing_Event Summer Solstice Writing Event]], ''Town of Salem'' players would often [[Administrivia/{{EditWar}} come to the wiki and replace the current story with their own]]. Since there is no official backstory, these changes were made and reverted quite often. Eventually, the Custom Stories page was created to collect all role stories ever written for a role page, and to encourage new authors to put their new [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation stories]] on that page instead. Eventually, the contest was held to find permanent backstories.

* UrbanLegendOfZelda: There is no achievement for everyone having a default name. Even with the Steam achievements proving this is false (seeing as it's not there and there's no secret achievements), even with players there from the beginning saying it's fake, and even with ''the people who actually made the game saying no such achievement exists'', the rumor still lives on.

** This has been done again with LetsPlay/{{PewDiePie}} playing a game resulting in a huge amount of new players. Longtime players resented this ''massively'', believing that ItsPopularNowItSucks (mainly due to its number of StopHavingFunGuys, who complain about the new players not playing well).
