I see the latter more likely because he's a good player and I respect his game.
Do you town read all of those slots? Or do you just feel like dropping shade on me for my reads?

If you are town reading them, which ones?

Also, do I know you? I actually have a guess, and if it is right, then you are someone who wants to scum read me in every game <3

Probably best for me to just stop engaging there tbh.

Anyone else want to talk to me?

don't you dare i was no such thing i was an innocent town chameleon

Cerberus is cute do you wanna trade him for my goldfish
Cats like to chase small things, I had Bastet of all gods come pouncing through the other day, chasing Pegasus.

You can imagine how that went, Cerberus - three headed guardian of the Underworld against Bastet, Cat goddess.

Cerbie still watches that doorway with great fear. I'll decline your trade, I don't think Charon would approve of a Goldfish being the guardian...

I would say that the first time I was not very sure, but was trying to figure out if your angle on me was really just as non-genuine as it seemed or if you were just one very specific person.

The second time, I reached the conclusion that you are probably that one very specific person and I should just drop the dialogue.

I see the latter more likely because he's a good player and I respect his game. I feel like he wouldn't let paranoia get the best of him here.

another thing is that I'm not a fan of one other person. this was something I was thinking for quite a while but I just forgot what their name was. I'll be back but need to put this here so I dont procrastinate and end up forgetting completely.

when have you ever seen newbie scum play that way, though? that is like almost the exact opposite of how i'd expect a new scum player to play in a large game

Explain this to me so that I believe you mean it and as if I've never played masons and monks.
I've been hoping that Cabd would get a chance to answer this since you're asking about one of his posts.

But, I hate unanswered questions so I'll give you my take on it.

First, I don't generally advocate auto-elimming miller claims, and tend to view them as all-but-named townies unless the player has an egregious history of fakeclaiming, so that's not a thing that would have occurred to me so early in the game.

The kinds of parallels Cabd and I are worried about, and which the different sorts of "will investigate as guilty" suggest could be in play are this: in monks and masons although you can get info that will clear some players of being a particular alignment due to the type of neighborhood (monkery for town-mafia or masonry for town-werewolf) they belong to, nobody gets fully cleared mechanically (except I think there's a corner case in a revised version of the setup where a town player could wind randed into both the masonry and the monkery)*.

Here, the millers seem to fill a similar function, though less thoroughly, and I'm certain Ceph took into account the likelihood that miller-ish roles would claim in their first few posts. They claim. whatever role can investigate those claims decides whether to burn a night action on them, etc.

Anyway, I doubt this gives any real window into why Cabd felt like such claims needed to be yeeted on page 5 or 6. It's probably to do with thinking that mafia or werewolf teams could have players that investigate as the opposite, and being concerned they get auto-townbinned for claiming their miller-like status or avoided by all alignment investigations rather than just the one they say they'll be guilty to.
