Well that's sort of weird to me because you've been letting me ask all the questions and the focus has seemed to be on helping me read you.
If you're uncertain about your read on me, where do we go from there?

I would policy lynch a miller claim tbh, excuse for getting inspected mafia.


What are you not understanding?

You claim Miller as Miller because a cop investigation will say scum. So it's helpful because the cop won't waste an investigation on you.

You lynch the claimed Miller based on everything else. It doesn't mean he's Miller, or scum take claiming Miller.

Explain why you want to policy lynch a Miller now.

I agree to an extent but she's been proactive about reading me in the past and I don't feel that here.

I mean this is great idea which is multiball so whether I'm scum or not associatives will be thrown out of whack and flips won't be as useful for determining my alignment.

Do you say that you suck D1 because of lack of content or because of lack of flips?

Universal miller shows up as a bunch of different scummy things so if we have different types of cops we can confirm it.

Miller just shows up as mafia.

Oh you mean Blitz?

Are you forgetting that Smither tried to N1 me? lol.

Both. I am really bad at reading people, particularly on D1.

Well, it's a skill and you have to learn and practise!

What I do when I'm feeling kind of stuck is just ask a bunch of random questions about whatever and try to get a read on the answer.

I don't think i've ever actually seen scum do it. Also you're fucked if you get CC'd by a real miller.

when she was town she was really forceful about convincing me that she was town too, although that may be a difference in meta between chat and forum.

I was about to give you an IC sort of lecture about having posts that actually connect your votes when you literally have no other pertinent post. But it turns out you have been playing this game for a while so I think you might know what you are doing.

My question is do you intend to ever do something that would make me regret lynching you today?

To be clear, it is precisely that I was feeling disengaged from the conversation that I feel like I needed to walk away and come back later with a fresh mind in order to process and ask questions properly.

Do you mind explaining why you want to policy lynch Ranger for not specifying miller vs. universal miller?

Never said anything about random.
But to answer: By only including players who have posted by post 14. :P

and hold the fuck up did you just claim miller?
Yes. Last time this setup (well, Greater Idea Mafia, a similar setup) was run, I drew town one-shot coroner with a miller modifier.
This game I'm just a plain ol' miller.
