9 players is 2
13 players is 3
16 players is 4
21 players is 5


At least assuming singleball mafia team, no SK, and traditional scum distribution. Could be higher or lower depending on PR allocation.

The tone of this post feels somewhat faked. Like the "hmmmm" didn't really make sense when I said it out loud to myself.

Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

If this were a "Mafia fakeclaiming miller" scenario, I am willing to bet that Marky Mark would have waited until the town in this list had posted to ensure there was not an ACTUAL miller claim, or Marky Marky is scum with exactly this list, which, uh... yeah probably not. In a mini normal or micro game, fake miller claims are less likely to be CC'd. But this is a 21 player normal. Lots of potential roles in the game that could sniff out fakery this early.

I'm good w/ Marky for now, even independently of townreading the content of his posts.
I agree

Since I'm not meta fancying right now, do they look like town or scum in this game?

5 scum.

5 - 1
9 - 2
13 - 3
17 - 4
21 - 5

I've noticed that people are notoriously bad at guesstimating the amount of scum once the game goes past a normal size. In the past I would have thought you were mafia faking not knowing how many scum there are, nowadays I think this tends to come from town

I somewhat disagree. As cabd said 5 is the "correct" number for a game this size and I have pushed players (as both alignments) for making similar statements. You are very much correct that it could be an attempt @ a fake town town instead of just being duncey town.

Also his stuff about me is junk lol

I could be misreading Nero Cain here but he's just prickly like a porcupine. I don't know why it bothers him so much that I question what he's doing if he um does the same to me? That's how this works I believe.

That's bad. Because u shouldn't know my side so early if you are a townie (only scummies know who is townies). Especially you, knowing that I'm an experienced player and I should be a possible scum/null for you rather long. How could you solve it so fast?
I thought you were talking about me. Townie's mistake = me acting scummy, and I know I am town.
If u dont elim me today, you are Minecrafters

Classic scum play of putting the focus on mechanics (ie gypx being a mod and not a player) over semantics. VOTE: NDMath
I don't think this is scum indicative based on his meta. The last game we played together was the equivalent of a mini theme game (I was scum, he was town) and he was hyper focused on the mechnics and won the game for town.
These two posts really come off as though you're trying to pocket me again.
I also don't believe that you'd think it was a scummy post if it came from a not-me person.

The assumption that there can only be one miller is an odd one.
Do agree with the townread though.

To be fair I've never seen it-- I just don't think that a miller implies no other millers.

I would severely judge a mod for doing it in a normal. I'd side-eye it in a theme.

But regardless, my point stands, and I doubt scum even weighs that, they just go with "only fake claim miller if we're near last to post" regardless.
