im not sure, but i think 1) that the cases on RF were weak and felt like most d1 lynches based on very little aka a crapshoot and 2) that statisically speaking we are more likely to lynch town. death miller seems like something that could be on both sides (not accounting for the possibility to NGO's ability caused it [which if it did and they're lying about it convinces me more that they are scum]) so im putting that up to a null tell. i have no way to know rf is town, obv, but i think its most likely for him to be town.

(i also think on a more meta level to think that RF was town because it puts more pressure to make good reads instead of believing RF was scum and having us be complacement, but thats my personal opinion)

oh i meant complacent i shouldnt try to use big words

1) disagree, RF's posting D1 was terrible
2) are you legit bringing up death millers on day 2 in this game
3) fair enough, I at least appreciate you talking this out

rf is always hard for me to gauge and read in every game i've played with him, hes the most white noise vanilla poster to ever grace these forums who somehow gets in on every single game. if retro futurist was an ice cream, he'd be vanilla. actually, i take that back, because sometimes there are people who like vanilla. so i am glad hes dead.

rf the person however is cool and someone i would Hang Out With. just as a mafia poster i can never get anything out of him regardless of alignment. literally, his lack of flip is by far the most RF way for him to die n1, as a complete nonfactor contributing no useful information to the game.

pod i dont believe u, im sry. i think someone not flipping, which is an attribute assigned to death miller, is a reasonable thing to suspect of rf. theres other explanations, of course, but i dont death miller is that bizarre. i think its even more bizarre youre saying that i said this on d2, when we have a flipless player on d1? when am i supposed to bring up that rf could possibly be a death miller? if not d2, when? i dont understand why this is a weird thing to say when it feels like a reasonable thing to think, to me at least. anyways i also find some other things you are saying really weird.

i find it weird that you brought up my dbz maf mishap, because it felt oppurtunistic and slimy. it feels like an odd character attack which i feel like youre above, as a player. it also reminds me of movie poster mafia where you said you took advantage of thranguy's inexperience to get him lynch and im getting a similar vibe that youre trying to set me up in some way. but not in an honest way, in a way "oh i bet if i hammer this home he'll dig his own grave and ill get the mislynch"

i find it weird that you insist rf is scum. i feel like its not in town's best favor to believe they're in a state of advantage because paranoia and stress is what makes people be aware of people's posting and can help them catch out weird things.

obv maybe im looking into things too much because im the one directly being accused, but im rly not the kind of mafia player to say "you're accusing me, so you must be scum" but i feel like youre not playing your usual town game and things are making me good hmmmmmm.

I guess I don’t see someone with a town mindset read the flerp v pod slapflight, ignore it, and vote you. You not answering the open question is votable but not really a scum tell, and you aren’t getting lynched over it, making a vote on you safe, assuming you are town and not scum as is your nature. However, flerp or pod could get lynched, thus a scum might be disinclined to vote for them at this stage if they know they are town, because scum are paranoid twats.

It’s a stretch, but I just dont see the town propulsion to make that vote.

Nah I just think stating a point (that opop should be treated as town) without giving any reason why and doubling down on refusing to give a reason is scummy. Also your reasoning for dissing Podima feels off too. Saying you disagree with his points would be understandable, but saying his posts gave no substance when he has been consistently giving opinions feels like you're misrepresenting him.

Opop is to be treated as town because anything else is stupid, poor play.

hemming and hawing about a self-janitoring role is garbage and useless, obv

similarly, speculating about a town janitor is ridiculous


therefore the janitor is either 3p or scum. 3p janitor has no obvious motive here, and shouldn't be taken as the likely scenario. So scum janitor.


scum generally gain from town confusion/ignorance no matter what, but they undoubtedly gain more in masking a mislynch than a correct lynch, especially when it's a sloppy rando weirdhammer d1 lynch

perhaps the way to treat RF isn't as town or scum, but as whatever you thought he was before he died and flipped null

I think Inf's thing was him claiming he died last night (and is, y'know, still posting, so he has an extra life/delayed death/weird conditional survival thing etc. role)

I'm a bit skeptical because he was probably the backup lynch if RF wasn't, had expressed no actual suspicion of anyone, and was thus an extremely questionable choice for a scumkill, but I guess he could have been vig'd and the scumkill doctored/roleblocked/whatever

But I'm also having a hard time having fun. It really hurts me to see my poor gay dog like this. It's not like he never stopped shitposting before, but when he got down to serious casing business, his posts used to be so clear, so simple and earnest. Now he sounds like he's really overexplaining his points to justify a fake scum case. Please, let him go peacefully.

That said though, I don't think flerp was out of line to be concerned about a death miller.

In a game with MGS flavour, I would expect something new and even more confusing and scary than a death miller. Some kind of Master Miller.
