Burden of Proficiency- This logical fallacy is based on the assumption that renowned players are expected to find scum. The attacker asserts that because the player in question has not yet found (enough) scum, they themselves are more likely to be scum.

Please note: There are slight changes to this game from the previous running. Most notably, Paragons win if scum is lynched and Town wins if Paragons guess correctly.
If a town player is lynched they will become a Paragon. This is the only method of being both. Therefore, I cannot answer your question in this thread.

The White Flag Gambit is a WIFOM gambit in which mafia members deliberately bus in setups that heavily discourage bussing to throw the town's associative reads off.

/in-vitationals are a modified form of invitational where players are 'matched' with other players that want to play with them. The only entry criterion is that you satisfy a 'best fit' algorithm for some number of other players. Moderators are usually chosen in a similar manner from among those who wish to moderate one of these games.

Fong's Gambit is a strategy in which a town player, recognizing that self-voting is seen as a scumtell, self-votes to evaluate the reactions of other players, and hopefully coax scum into opportunistically voting them. This play was popularized by the IRC Channel #mafia user fong.

Enter: u r a person 2 (Lynch-2)

In post 1177, the worst wrote:This is scum's fault. Like you all did exactly what we expected you to do. Stop heaping shit on each other, you both lost equally fairly.
This. Please calm down. Getting mad at each other doesn't solve anything, and more it takes away from the value of the scum's victory. This was a really stacked lobby, and I'm impressed as hell that they pulled it off.

Very different style of game, but I've got a jester setup in the works. It'll probably be a little bit before I run another one of these, but if someone else wants to or anyone has suggestions to better the setup, I'm more than happy to help where I can.
