Which, you'll already note a decent pile of town, and probably most of the scum are already doing.
Probably one scum is going to be willing to lob his cantaloupes into the ring and push on me a bit - care to explain how I'm scum for claiming a belief about site meta?
I could use a laugh.
Oh, and I picked Casso because I wanted to be a Miller.
Obviously.
I think that Elle thing is town now.
Painfully newb, but at least unlike the other newbs here, managing to seep out some town vibes.
Paranoia is a hell of a drug.
Sort of want to lynch Benny or Zeddy now.
Benny manages to make very slightly less sense than Zeddy - and that takes some doing.

I may be down with the ooba lulz wagon, but I'll admit the copping to the misrep actually feels townish. Ooba is certainly skilled enough that might be a feint to the growing pressure...but my gut kind of says town on that one too, so I think we can do better.
Let's lynch Benny for lulz, I like to lynch him Day 1 anyway.

My evidence is in this thread.
But feel free to go and find me a Day 1 Miller claim where the Miller claimed as part of their first post and was then lynched anytime in the next three days.
I'll wait.
-As far I knew, site meta is for you to claim opening post. Check. Then again, from what I recall is to simply treat you as any other player and go off of your play. NOT have you as confirmtown by any means whatsoever. Also for sometime following KK's infamous fake miller gambit win, meta was to lynch millers on site. Which I fucking agree with, and rather just yell at mods for being fucking pricks. Jesters Godfathers Cops... I thought this was a game of logic and wits, not random dice rolls.ZZZ FARADAY.
-What inthread evidence? You saying its site meta.. thats not evidence.. I want the MD discussion that popular opinion has somehow shifted to treating miller claims as conftown. I mean thats mindfuckingly stupid. You yourself agree its not logical... so why the fuck even follow it?
Pretty much yes. It is day one..I think you're the type of player fully capable of trying to gambit miller claim. What awe inspiring case you looking for?In post 523, Thor665 wrote:

Annoyed at having Noones who don't have the mafia capacity, experience or knowledge of an infant talking down to me... Yeah, its comically bad. But I guess that's where people have regressed too. How many people even mentioned KK's Miller Gambit. How many of the 013's even know Scum have claimed miller and won several times. There's a reason I'm good. I've fucking seen everything, but even mentioning that and being annoyed at Thor playing games is a Cardnial Sin.. Than I'll be fine with sitting around twiddling thumbs and hoping Cops win the game for us like this generation does.

Maybe it carries over from RL, and how pathetic our generation tends to be. I'm 26, so I'm referring to my generation and also really 17-30 (lil bros 19), there's just no morals, respect, or class anymore... IRL... so then having people here, who are new who don't even have a clue what they're talking about pretend like I'm the dimwitted one, only reinforcing shit behavior from Thor, is frustrating. I like playing at a high level, and have little patience for newbs. I never IC for a reason.In post 575, Tierce wrote:

Tell me, do you think it's a natural thought process as scum to go "hey, I'll claim miller ... ooh, and I think I could make myself look townier by incorrectly claiming that nobody will lynch me because of site meta"? For your theory to have any basis in scumhunting, that has to be the question, and the answer is obviously no.
Meanwhile, newsflash: Every time you whine about how much better at everyone else at this game you are, this is what I read:

In your point you seemed to have difficulty understanding a scum perspective for his actions. Well I provided a possibility, and shit I don't put anything past players and the wacky gambits that have occurred, or what they might be thinking... Don't tell me you dont see dumb shit in every game. IF him being "cutesy" is standard operating Thor procedures, than OF COURSE he'd try and mimic such behavior in a fake miller gambit. So my theory isn't some crazy conspirator idea, but has sound reasoning behind it.In post 583, Goat on a Raft wrote:The point you take from that should not be "THEREFORE GOAT THINKS THOR INCORRECTLY CLAIMED META FOR TOWN REASONS", it should be "therefore Thor must genuinely believe what he's saying about site meta because there is no reason for either alignment to attempt to hoodwink an entire game with made-up site meta". At best, you have found an idiot. Most likely, you have found someone who has played in different games to you and got his own impression of what happens here.

How many times must I say... I find him scummy not for his claim, but rather the way he auto-confirmed himself town. Him not referencing his "site meta"... but choosing to be cutesy, isn't helping even if that is status quo. But again... not his claim... THE WAY HE CLAIMED!!!!In post 588, Goat on a Raft wrote:So now we're up to the stage of "well, itcouldbe a gambit, therefore it is". You're saying that behaviour which is normal for him, which he is either doing genuinely in this game or done a fine impression of him doing genuinely in this game, is a reason to lynch him. If you want to lynch him solely because he claimed miller, just say as much.

Okay, thats not what I meant (and old players who barely play 1-2 times a year... dont really count).. I got hooked, and was speaking in generalities. Yes Tierce new players can be good. But obviously thats more the anomaly then the norm. Simply because mafia is a complex game, our site there's a learning curve.

I missed you requesting me to provide source material. I did specifically mention that our mod himself, successfully had a partner as scum fake claim miller. I also referenced which I'm sure you must be aware of the infamous KK fakemiller claim, win. I asked you for specifics... not to check every miller claim on site, but just where your version may have stemmed from.In post 600, Thor665 wrote:

If we want to do this seriously one of us would need to dig up all the Miller claims for the past year and examine them.
I'm personally never going to do that - but I bet I'm dead right about what went down with the majority of them.
That's what makes it site meta.
So that has been my point... That being Miller in no way confirms you town.
Are you merely saying now, that claiming miller will just make you a subject of disagreement and therefore be tough to lynch? Cause I agree there, but that's not the first impression I got. Is this the case?"ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi

I didn't say that to clear him as town. I don't think he is town. My statement was in response to you asking why say not regular cop...ie things outside of standard cops.. Role cop would be miller, Name cop would be whatever his characters name is.. thats what I meant with character cop... 2 things which do not confirm alignment...

Thank you for yielding your scummy ways.In post 950, Thor665 wrote:
Well...I did the deflection because I think it is a quite reasonable question. I had committed the least "crime" of your stated issue...yet was the only one attacked. Why not just answer why this was as opposed to deflecting my question by accusing me of deflectionIn post 843, Benmage wrote: There's 2 people voting off it... not very impressed with it either.. but why the Deflection?
-As for theory, I know as scum I love drawing town connections to my scum partners, so yeah if a flip does happen you can paint someone else negatively.
--Especially since its Smurfy reasoning to suspect Safety, but if Safety does flip scum for other reasoning... trying to draw this as a connective tell is simply Smurf.
Functionally you just did as much connection between me and him as I did between Nacho and him...so why is what I did an issue?
I agree that I don't like the case...that said, my connective tell was not based on the name thing, rather it was based on their reaction to the name thing. I made that fairly clear I thought. Does your issue with me work with that, or are you taking my stance as totally different?
In what capacity did I not answer your question?
-I wholly disagree with your drastic conclusion that what you said and what I said are anywhere near similar.
As far as I was concerned, you connected a "slip" as a scum read, and wanted to lynch the person the slip is about as the next lynch if the first were to flip scum. I said the first may flip scum, but such a flip would have no reflection upon the second person, whom you wanted to see hung.... Whats the word...'lining up lynches'if you will.
So since I seem to be confused by which connective tell you were using, please quote for me the Naut post you had issues with, and break down why this gave you a connective scum tell for me... as if I were a 5 year old (I simply hate ambiguity, see above confusion). Thank you."ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi

My desire to see you lynched, does not revolve around the flipping of someone else, or first, or anything of that matter. Whereas you’re assertion required the first person to flip scum, and then desired the second lynched via your connective tell.In post 1048, Thor665 wrote:

It's the same sort of thing except you're using a different weak connection than the one you feel I'm using.
I don't think either is intrinsically scummy - but the double standard from you is.
What am I missing here?
-I didn't say you connecting anything to me, what are you talking about?In post 1048, Thor665 wrote:

I did say you connected us to them...is that what you mean? For that - you did it yourself, so I have no idea why you need me to quote it.
As far as the post I had issues with, it was Posts 834-835 on this page; http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.ph ... &start=825
The way both of them denied it in weaksauce ways wherein one was like "But Elli hasn't even been in the QT" which is not a defense, and the guy who *did* nameslip about Elli points out he has only ever played with Elli once, which seems to strengthen the value of the slip tell, not weaken it/ Both were too worked up over it, making me feel there is something there.
-I connected what to you? You said, following the slip that you wanted to lynch Nautilus pending a scum flip. NOONE ELSE MADE THIS CONNECTION. HENCE I SAID YOU were lining up lynches. While those players may have drawn those conclusions later, who knows... you JUMPED at it to connect Naut. Hence I disliked your connection, because slip or no that person might flip scum. And like I said when I'm scum, drawing connections between town players to my scum partners is a 1-0-1 move.
The circular-ness of this is baffling… I feel like you’re just trying to dance around the issue, and be purposely dense.
You Tried connecting Naut, or lined up lynches, how ever you want to word it to someone who might flip scum for some bullshit “slip”. Period.
You are scum."ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi

Errr... ^Scum for response.

Justify this now pl0x.
I don't have an issue with drawing scum connections.
But you Publicly stated If X (safetydance) flips scum Lynch Y(naut)... For what appeared to be just some shit "slip"... not what you now claim to be their responses. (which is still meh reasoning. You didn't like their explanations.. He mad a human error... but you jump to the scum, verse being ahumen...because such misnomers don't occur in every game )
I don't have an issue with drawing scum connections, albeit its not the smartest thing to do D1.
But yes, I think it possible you're scum looking to tie Naut to a scum buddy of yours, whenever he may flip you can on some future day goyayayaya the slip too! zomg he is scum zomg lynch lynch."ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi

I have said I'm not impressed with either of their votes... whats there to s.p.e.l.l. out? That they're voting for some shit "slip".. when slips are 99.9% from town... what else is there to cover??? You just keep going, them them them!In post 1213, Thor665 wrote:
Not that I'm aware of, I cited a specific instance and what I would do because of it, and noted my supporting evidence.

You still really havn't addressed how the two players who are making the same connection I am making, yet moreso, didn't get attacked.
Unless the reason is now that I was being 'fencey' and thus am more scummy for that...?
-Fence-sitting insofar as you believe the "slip" presumably existed, that connected these two players together, then continued the connection via their responses... then allocated that if the first flips scum, you're down to lynch second... concluding that there must be overwhelming connective evidence, eliminating the possibility of chance that the first person was simply just scum. YET you didn't vote. I.E. Fence-sitting.
Ya, put it down chronologically for me.In post 1213, Thor665 wrote:

Because in the very post I said that I specifically included the commentary about their responses.
Quote it and try to bold that - if you can't find it I'll do so for you.
But this is really bad and weaksauce.
What the heck?
At least I have faith you didn't go back and look at the quote, because claiming this is provably wrong, so you honestly believed this gak was right...meh, not even alignment helpful though."ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi

it's either you being pissy or you being scum...or possibly both.
none of it is very helpful - are you getting somewhere with all of this?
Because I feel like someone is throwing feather pillows at me screaming 'Burn you Fool!' and acting like it's relevant.
Its comical you trying to dismiss the entirety of this argument because town can draw connections.. Great! So can scum.
Lets never consider lurking a scum tell/ buddying/ deflection/ OR ANYTHING because OMFG town can do it.
Most scumtells are situational, and I've never had an issue being a black pot calling a kettle black....many minor scumtells must be viewed together as a whole, weighing everything together to draw proper connections. The amount of coming from you has tipped the scales heavily toward scum."ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi

There's way more to Thor, than Policy Lynching him for Miller.
A)Miller claim
B) His auto-town assertion in his claim
C) His bullshitting well into the game about his claim verse being open and truth full.. we're the uniformed, we cant be playing games.
D) His repetitive deflection
E) Fence-sitting/lining up lynches.
Its a great D1 lynch if you ask me. Wayyy to many question marks surrounding that slot."ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi

With less than 24 hours to deadline and you twice the wagon than anyone else... logic says claim. Especially with this shitty sneakpreview.In post 1581, SafetyDance wrote:Lol, if you wont lynch a miller claim then you wont run up me. Unless, double-standards!
Anyway if you do, prefer it to be after dinner. Claim then if needed.
FYI, noone voted Thor because he claimed Miller. Nor is anyone not voting him because he claimed miller..... That would be idiotic. People aren't voting him for totally separate idiotic reasons."ITT Benmage is making Shakespeare look cool. I need to bring you to my high school." -Vi
