I can confirm the neighborhood, as I am also in it with Flavor and Gamma. Flavor also made the same claim in that thread, though he took it back. He also pushed me in the neighborhood rather opportunisticly due to my inactivity. I would like to let y'all know that the neighbors have not been confirmed in terms of team to each other, just so it's not questioned later.In post 27, Flavor Leaf wrote:In post 19, Gamma Emerald wrote:I'm gonna try something: for this I'm gonna lurk out the first irl day or so
Imma make this short and simple.
I'm in a neighborhood with Gamma Emerald. I'm an ascetic miller also. No other info will be given.
This seems incredibly strong and out of the gate for this early. Not sure whether tryhard town or scum pushing a fakeclaim.In post 42, Nictis wrote:I'll be honest, I had to visit the wiki to remember what Ascetic was.

Mods make shit like that all the time just to make a role hard to claim outright. He also hasn't fully expanded on the nature of his role. It could be an X-shot ascetic miller. Or ascetic comes with some heavy asterisks. Or he's just paraphrasing his role name. There's a lot of possibilities.In post 35, Nictis wrote:I completely failed to respond to that post. Ascetic Miller isn't overkill for a fakeclaim, it's just wrong. "You can't visit me but if you could I would come up as scum," doesn't make sense.
It could be that Assembler did something like that, but why? The only valuable use I can see Town having for an X-Shot weak Commuter (Which is what it would be functionally) is to prevent scum Roleblocking a different ability that he can use. He can dodge being roleblocked, healed, watched, or investigated, but not killed. We can't track him to see if he kills someone, we can't heal him after he turned himself into a target, we can't watch his house for the killer, we can't investigate him (And if we could we'd get a guilty result?)
It being something hard to claim doesn't seem right either, if it's just redundant then why even bring up that he's a Miller? Stick with Ascetic and you're good.
If we can't verify anything about him, or protect him, why keep him around? If he shows himself to be Town then we can trust Gamma to a point. If he shows himself to be something else then we have another person to look at that he volunteered.
He claimed Miller, which is something that I personally raise my eyebrow towards. In addition to claiming Miller, he claimed that visiting him is pointless, and has said he's sharing a chat. All of these are ticking boxes in my head that yell 'SCUM.'
Comes up guilty to investigation: Check
Collusion with another player: Check
Tells Town not to visit them: Check
It could be that his role is strange, that there's a reason I can't think of, or that he's bold scum. I just know that the claim itself doesn't make sense at face value, and that it's easier for me to assign scum reasoning to it than a possible Town role.
A couple reasons for my vote I suppose.
While on the subject of fakeclaims, I am, once again, The Flying Pumpkin That Shoots Laser Beams Out of Its Ass. Take that as you will.
