Mills name contains 5 letters

His game finished 2 days ago
4 x 2 = 8

= 48

48 is the number of times Mills has been lynched for being scum.

This is number 49.

But to the contrary, 49 is an Angel Number

Mills is Town.

Only if he is scum and off his game. It was a massive distraction last time and ultimately meaningless. I'd be suss on anyone trying to do it again tbh.

I dunno, this is written in a way that infers an external perspective - that you are a separate entity to the town and pleading to them. It could be a subconscious slip. Also happy to admit I may be reading too much into it, it just twigged something for me.

The fact that you put analysis into this lovely day one post implies that you are putting in a small effort to out-town the town.

Auspol town always gets into a shitflinging frenzy on day one where a large majority of the posts are jabs, jokes or meaningless. You however have come to stand out and try being a helpful town on day 1.

You are either reading too much into this or are scummy for the fact that you're trying to fish hard out of day one posts.

Framing the argument is a key part of a mafia team, do it too early and too often and you will get lynched.

Yes.

But Kat is also hyper analytical, developing auspols first mafia spreadsheet in like auspol game #4 ever that a lot of players have since imitated but kept secret.

Anidav always does dumb appeals to town though, because he is bad at the game (I didn't play in the last two games where apparently he was good. I don't believe it for a second.)

Oh, how I have been there.

I do think it's worth trying to poke people and go fishing for little tells like that though, even on D1. If only because there's not much else you can do, besides the usual joking around. Even if the original tell is pretty bogus, the reaction that follows may be more revealing instead.

Using it to "frame the argument" and pushing it way too seriously for D1 might be going overboard and be a scumtell though, I agree. However, this reply sounds like a very toned-down OMGUS to me.
