so are you a death miller only in so far as you flip scum when you die? or if you're visited by an investigative, you'll be a positive result as well?

I think Bell or Luke answered this on page 1 or 2.

Though I dunno. Maybe we read "miller" to a rolecop. That's how it usually works in non-bastard games.

The wording is [approximately, for sake of not quoting the pm] that we we will appear as admin in any circumstance that would reveal our alignment, and that includes in death.

So yes, we are a miller for the sake of both cops and death. That should not affect a rolecop in anyway though

We tried to troll Anix with a "Bork is the superior red mod" role pick, and anix decided to troll us back with this role lol

You should probably ask what a normal rolecop would get as a result from you just to check

This. . . is definitely a bastard game in at least one significant sense

i was asked a question and i'm too lazy to go back and quote it but essentially i've said as much as i know about my role in vague terms. i believe it can be done multiple times by folks (but the outcomes might be the same?) but i'm not entirely sure. it can def be done by others later on, me being quoted triggers it.

i do have an idea of what's about to happen to the drinkers and smokers and it could be rlly cool or rlly useless. i guess i can't rlly prevent mafia from quoting me and finding out the mechanic so i'll say to feel free to share what happens unless it's very obviously something to keep on the DL.

i picked drink so i'll be finding out what the drinkers find out about me i'm guessing. smoking is inherently the worse choice but if you did pick smoke please at least be honest about it lol bc otherwise it could start a shit show

Y'know what a Miller who is also a Death Miller but totally isn't scum trust me guys sounds like to me?

Scum.

VOTE: The Cabal

Also the excuse of bork having a red name doesn't hold water here because bork abandoned the hydra before the game even filled.

OFFICIAL CABAL VS WEPICK RULES


Each side will pick ELEVEN DIFFERENT GAMES[i.e. Chess, Rock Paper Scissors, Trivial Pursuit, Pagetop Stealing Contest etc] to compete in and submit them as SOON AS POSSIBLE. If you do not submit any games I will simply not put any of your choices into the pool.

Pooky as a COMPLETELY unbiased ARBITER OF THE GAMES will randomly select games you submitted to play. if you do not submit any games, Pooky will select whatever the hell he wants.

Each time your hydra loses a game, a player in the totally meme mafia game will vote for your hydra. If any hydra receives six votes they will suffer a most tragic defeat whereas the other Hydra will be crowned HERO OF THE ELEVENTH HOUR and AUTOMATICALLY ADVANCE TO FINAL ELO.
I'll toss in Puyo Puyo.

Pooky,
I’m pretty sure you’re just shit stirring ironically, but I will tunnel you if you shit stir on a slot that it is pointless to shit stir on.

Oh the game thing.

I’d like to play a game where I get to engage in a conversation with another player for like, 40 minutes and then we announce what we think the other player’s alignment is.

Me too, so I'm not going to use my role that literally brings anix into the game on an alt account that operates under defined parameters until later in the day phase

Two things.
1. Milers that claim miller are usually actually millers(ascetics it’s a coin toss).
2. Players that claim more information about their role than is strictly necessary are more likely to be town.

I don’t actually know most of you guys, but Pooky’s familiar…ish. With these arguments.
