unvote, nvm I think if rex was scum his partner would be pinging him by now.

unvote vtl rex

Its a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake

My main reasoning here is that it's very easy to have a thought of "This day is quiet, that sucks" and say that out loud, but it's another thing to actually do something about it and push game into a different state. And knowing that I'm Town, pushing the game out of the state of "idk Ceru is policy chop" is a townsided move.

It's admittedly a bit self-centered, but there's not a whole lot to go off beyond that at the moment.

I agree with this logic. Could be lazy town, but not really an excuse.

I don’t think this strategy is effective though. You could just be vague like my guy is a criminal and it would encompass everyone. It’s hard to do POE if the baseline is different

Actually saying that you guy is a criminal is a good soft claim and narrows down quite a bit of the theme in this. I can easily eliminate half of my list of potential characters if you were to soft this.

I dont really wanna lynch ceru honestly, vtl kohai and thoth for suggesting it

Another thing is that there are a lot of characters in this game that would make sense as a miller or miller type role lmao

I can think of one right off the top but I won’t say it obviously because it’s a good chance that person is actually ceru

Is there a reason some of your hank and akhmed exchange was grey texted? Are hints provided from the mod part of the mechanics in this game that I didn't pick up on?

I’m ok with soft claiming. Should we start with gender?

My recommendation is we all soft a different way. Let's mix it up and make it more challenging for scum.

Alright, we have 38 hours left and we’ve done nothing. We should start soft claiming. Yall are the most familiar with the theme. How do we go soft claiming without revealing who we exactly are?

My soft is that my character is on the list I provided. I recommend we all soft a different way, I think scum have in general caught on to the "type claiming" meta where people claim male/female, DOB, etc. Maybe we all do something different.

You know what my stance is lol

No offense dawg but at this point I think it’s one of those stances you have and believe but don’t ever really follow because you secretly realize the logic behind it is faulty but don’t wanna admit your wrong in lmao. You’ve had this anti miller policy for years but I don’t think I ever really remember you actually advocating a lynch on one past maybe saying they should be a default lynch in case of no others once or twice but then never following through on that.

lmao it’s like the Christian parent who doesn’t believe in gay marriage but has a gay kid and they still love them and don’t lecture them on their life choices. It’s okay to admit you were wrong in that logic pie! Time to drop it lol not a hill worth dying on. Don’t be the Christian mom who refuses to change with the times!

I’m lending town cred to whatever it is

I’m willing to lend ceru a bit of a town cred for the miller claim sure

What would you expect some common theme splits are

I was thinking about that. I’ll have to think harder because the protagonist here is kind of a bad guy and the “villain” of the first season is Janice Moss who is after him but she’s not really a bad person she’s just counter to the protagonist. I could see Barry being scum, but I do doubt that here based on things in my role PM but I could be mistakenly understanding something.

It could be like Checyens vs everyone else or Bolivians vs Chechen’s or Barry vs actors or actors plethora of things. Will need a scum flip before I can really cook with this

So I watched two episodes of this last night and man, it's pretty good. I'm already loving this little bald eyebrowless guy.

 i was literally just telling Whiteflame that i think Noho hank absolutely Carries the show. Love his character

Characters I would be surprised if they weren't in the game:

Barry Berkman (Main Character)

Sally Reed (Barry's love interest/ girlfriend)

Monroe Fuches (Barrys original mentor)

Janice Moss (Detective. She is only in season 1, but she is a huge catalyst for Barry's character development, and has such an impact on the show it would be surprising if she wasn't in it)

Gene Cosineau (Barry's acting coach who impacts him majorly and ends up becoming a huge part of the show)

NoHo Hank (Funniest character in the show by far, Gay Russian mob dude with tons of personality)

Christobal Sifuentes (Bolivian Crime lord, and lover to NoHo Hank)

Characters that might be in the game:

Goran Pazar (He is mostly big in season 1)

Mayrbeck (Has a pretty significant role in season 2 that I could see making whiteflame want to put him in the game)

Chris lucado (Former marine friend of Barry's. Not in a lot of episodes but also has a pretty big impact on Barry's character development and repercussions from something that happens with him occur in later seasons).

There are a lot more side characters and one or two could be in the game, but these characters are ones that stood out to me personally watching the show.

I had hoped we would one day be scummates since I knew you have a reputation for taking wild risks. It happened very soon after, in Suikoden. We remember how that panned out.

What is the relevancy of this?

TBH I would love to actually have a proper game where no one character claims until at least day 3

This is impossible. I mean even if no one is asking for claims, if you suspect someone purely on behavior and try to push their lynch, gather support for it, put the guy at l-1, they are going to claim to try and save themselves. Which they probably should. I mean if they are the cop or something we aren't going to lynch them right? But I get the sentiment about people claiming frivolously, which tends to be a running theme on this site.

Sure. I suppose I just take issue with framing it as being something "almost guaranteed" and tipping off scum as to which characters would be most likely to be believed if they were to be claimed. Although I grant that this show seems to be well-known enough that a quick Google is enough to reach that point regardless.

I dont think theorizing at what characters exist tip scum off to anything, there is still a large amount of skepticism that will go with any major claim especially if the role doesn't fit the character. Putting a list of potential characters to exist isn't a statement that all these claims will be town confirmed, or are even neccesarily safe. But I think the utility in it is that we can look at outliers with a bit of scrutiny, because there will be more than one scum who will either have to claim outside that list or take a siginificant risk of CC by claiming within it.

My hot take of the hour is that you might not want to publicize a list of characters that are "almost guaranteed" to be in the game because there's a reasonable chance that at least one "obvious" character is going to not be included in order to create claim space.

At least, that would be my guess. Seems a likely outcome of allowing questions rather than giving fake claims to scum outright.

Doesnt make any sense. We can still talk about characters that may and may not exist and acknowledge that mafia have a fake claim.

There is certain characters that are almost guaranted to be in this game btw, i will make a list later, about to go to sleep

I literally had a dream that I got a certain character in this game. No kidding The next day when I got my role PM I got the exact character I dreamed I was. WTF am I a psychic?

Might be asleep when this starts

One of my favorite dark comedies next to Mr. inbetween

This is an awesome theme btw. If you haven’t seen this show spoil yourself and watch it, it’s hilarious and dark but the story is very compelling

I definitely was swayed by some of pies thematic arguments as well as the supa silencing point. It almost convinced me. At the end of the day day I bought into wifom of Whiteflame as scum not wanting to risk leaving me alive in a lylo situation. I was pressuring him hard dp2, leaving me alive was a huge risk, not sure it’s one he would take. He could have left Thoth alive who was hard sussing pie dp2. Like I said it could have been a big brain manipulation tactic but I think of Whiteflame as a conservative safe player, I just didn’t see him risking it.

Sorry man I think I am closing my account down after this current mafia game. Not having fun here, I am a washed debater and mafia player. Don't really feel like im part of the community any more lol. GG's all its been fun

Considering I've stated over and over again that I have my issues with Thoth as well and that I've been willing to consider his lynch, and considering that I've made the arguments, received little in the way of responses, and we have now just over 2 hours left to make any lynch happen, yeah, I'll go for the option that has at least some chance of happening.

keeping options open so that you have more mislynch potential, is what this feels like. Not really a good point in favor of you being town. Would make more sense if you picked a lane and stayed in it, now you willing to lynch Thoth when you heavily questioned and doubted pies reasoning for it earlier.

Softclaiming your role early doesn't really change anything for me, either, since you would have received the full fake claim as scum and made this call early

just thought of something so to respond to this again; you really think the mod would give vanilla as a fake claim? That’s like the worst fake claim ever, anyone can come up with vanilla lol. Just saying
