Anyone want to kick things off? Start a flame war?
Pie, I heard mikal said your mother was a bitch. You gonna stand for that?

Wanna help me lynch magoroth? I just peeped lazy mafia, apparently he was the host of that and the scum team basically just quit that game due to the host being inactive. I would venture to say he is not coming back. We should just lynch him to avoid the headache at Lylo.
Mikal's claim is dubious
Mikals claim is pure reaction baiting lol. Didn't want to spell that out, but it seemed obvious.
This game is going much slower than I'd like.
VTL: Magoroth
Claims:
Thoth- Christopher Michael Langan- PGO/Nexus (Post 3, 52 dp1)
Shining- FDR (Post 5, dp1)
Wryly- Princess Donut (Post 9, dp1)
Wylted- BBQ Becky (Post 10 dp1)
Mikal- Squall- Unlimited self protected vig (LMAO)
Unclaimed:
Whiteflame
Lunatic

Magoroth

Who had wylteds being down for “random off topic rants about something non game related”? You earned 500 points
Wya at bud

Unlimited vig shots would be wild. Sounds like bullshit. Well, maybe not. Sometimes I'm like "no way would a mod do that" and then at endgame "holy shit the mod really did that."
Like when Vader put three investigatives and no protectives in that one game and I mislynched at LYLO. Not that I'm still bitter. (I am.)
"What gives them the right to just defile me like this? What gives them the right!" Donut cried. "Oh my god! It's a disqualifying mark. It's a disqualifying mark, Carl! I'm damaged!"
Just remember wryly. It's early dp1, and mikal hates dp1. lol
You would pick Dalinar though
Lol
Yeah. Not the biggest fan of that play by Thoth. To his credit though Thoth is capable of big braining a move like baiting scum, but not the execution. In Periodic Table when I found out after I ded that he was a soldier, I applauded him thinking he was going to clutch the game, only for him to cave when it mattered most and claim soldier. Helz even told me they were going to kill whiteflame before lylo, meaning if he hadn't claimed he would have won for town. So this is something Thoth would fuck up. That said I am not totally clearing him based on that, just being open minded about it. But yeah he still probably should have claimed that outright if he wasn't planning on baiting. Regardless, I am not going to stick to this point super hard either since its early game and many people have yet to post.

Since alignments are randomized, I see no reason to lie about our characters. We might as well claim those immediately. I am Christopher Michael Langan.
Seems like a lot of people are getting onboard with claiming early, though I can't say I understand the reasoning here. Yes, characters are effectively randomized, but everyone would have submitted a set of 3 characters for Kohai to choose from. Scum will either have characters that don't obviously link to scummy roles or will just claim one of the other two characters they submitted. Just seems like it doesn't matter, but maybe that's your point. We have 5 claims out now, I'll likely give mine tonight, I just want to understand the thinking here.
Yeah you can still link justifications of characters to roles, so claiming like this is kind of wild, though I am not totally against having a few people locked into a claim. I think we should refrain from posting a ton more, so we can actually pressure people for information though.
frivolously*

Not needing to claim frivouly =/= Lying

*starts to read through the OP*
I've just never been great at following rules. Forgive me if I miss something in this mix.
Anyway, good to be back at it. I'm still at work, but I'll try to be active this evening.
Lol "read the rules". You just skim and then wait for Thoth to tell you what they are later in an "I'm amazed no one else read this" tone.
LMAO so true

Too many rules, didnt read. Maybe ill get modkilled again
Welcome back after a 2 week mafia dry spell everyone
Thats 9! 10 if wryly shows
Need one more
Suggesting mods do something is fine and dandy but enforcing people to do things is kind of a slippery slope.
/in
For the record not really disagreeing with you entirely, I think OGI kind of sucks. I just am kind of against heavy rule enforcement. Not just in mafia, with everything. At the end of the day were all here to have fun and play a game. I wish people wouldn't rely on it so heavily, but I also don't want to see people get modkilled for stuff players can handle. Also I don't expect all mods to use a heavy hand with this.
It would be nice if people just didn't rely heavily on OGI (looking at you mikal), but we can choose to ignore it as well. Maybe we call people out for being stupid for using it enough we can bully them out of using it lol. jk jk
So lets say I hard claim that X player is talking to me in DM's while being inactive in game. True or not- We now have out of game information to deal with right?
This is something you can handle in game. It wouldn't make a lot of sense for someone to lie about this because the person can come back and say they were actually inactive, and that the person who made that claim is lying, therefor forcing a 1 v 1 scenario. Mafia generally try to avoid these unless they are in LYLO situations. If the person just doesn't make an appearance in the thread, its something that can be easily tested. You can message the inactive person (non game related of course) and if they don't respond, that could lead you to believe the person who made that claim was probably lying. Just not really a good OGI to use for strategic purposes.
Or lets say I claim the host told me X when they told me Y. I have now made the host an involved participant in a conflict and forced them to consider what they say which will impact the game one way or the other because of information outside of what a player was given (OGI)
This is annoying for a host, and I dealt with this particularly a lot in the last game. Ultimately I think the onus is on the host to not answer questions that could lead to conclusions people can draw from about others however. There should never really be any answers to questions unless it relates to your own specific role, or if it relates to how a flipped role could interact with your own role. I made the mistake of answering questions about game mechanics to players asking me about my list in the OP of the last game, and it bit me in the butt and ended up with Kohai hallucinating a different answer from me than others got from me. Ultimately the slip was on kohai, but that situation just wouldn't have even happened if I took a hard line stance against answering frivelous questions like that to begin with. If I had never answered any ones questions about that, it would have saved town a mislynch. I don't think me answering that question even really helped anyone with anything. Nobody needed to know whether scum was given a list of things they could put in, or if they made it up themselves. Kind of kicking myself for even answering that one lol.

I mean it sounds like it could be a fake role, but can a nigga be creative? It was funny.
Luna used this role as a fake claim for scum in The Stand Mafia where Mikal was scum. Biggest thing that tipped me off he was scum was the whole “I don’t remember ever seeing a role like that,” when his partner Speed basically used it to win the game
Honestly was a coincidence. I just associated Russia with Vodka and them being able to outdrink everyone so I searched "Drunk" on the mafia universe role list and that popped up, and I said fuck it why not. Was looking for a vanilla-esque role that wouldn't make town too OP since they had a lot of power roles already.
