Why lean town? I'd call his behavior null at best, slight scum at worstI'm gonna slide you [GP] into the lean town category.

lose the focus on theme and start the focus on behavior. No one is dead yet so we have no lead on what theme could be.

What does everyone think of Grey? I feel like his posts are kinda generic and forced (or, at the very least, not very genuine).
On page 11 btw

From what I remember, he seems like he's coming in to reply to some stuff and then disappearing. Want more activity from him other than theme analysis

And why would that be the case? What unfair advantage does editing or deleting posts afford that anyone else does not otherwise possess? Fair being, treating someone in a manner that is right or reasonable and treating people equally.Furthermore how does the following afford an unfair advantage?
If someone is allowed to kill you, then you're allowed to kill them. That's basically your line of thinking.
Shut up about "advantages" and shit. Everyone can do it, but that doesn't mean they should. You're saying that "everyone is allowed to do it, so it's fine". No it's not. That's not how this works. What I'm saying is that you should not be able to edit or delete posts at all. It's the mentality of "either everyone can do it, or no one can do it", and I'm saying no one can do it.
Considering that the original act of posting the entire PM regardless of motive, is unfair to the rest of those a part of that person's affiliation, and clearly unfairly disadvantages them, editing and/or deleting posts would quite actually be countering that unfair result in this circumstance returning back to the status quo of the player not violating a standard rule of not posting your pm, and/or game-throwing.Look, if editing and deleting posts was either only able to be done by one side, or could be done at anytime and was not otherwise limited to a 15 minute time frame, I would agree that post editing and deletion should be outright banned. But it's not, and I fail to see how it should as fmpov it doesn't unfairly disadvantages anyone or treat anyone unequally as we all have the ability to do so and can have realistic and/or reasonable reasons for doing so regardless of affiliation.
How about no one is allowed to do it period? Who cares about "oh both can do it and it only lasts for a few minutes so it's fine"? Logically, it shouldn't be fine. Realistically, it shouldn't be fine. This is a game where once a post exists, it should stay in existence, and it shouldn't change.
If someone claims "I am [role]" and someone else says "haha get cc'd, I'm [same role]", the first person has a chance to edit they're post to something else and say "wtf are you talking about I'm [different role]". Your line of reasoning is that this is okay because "the second person could just change their post to the same role that person one changed it to and it would have the same effect.
If you truly think that editing or deleting posts in a mafia game are okay, then you're retarded

I meant "not the show" when I said "what the theme is based on". It's based on the show, but what I meant is I'll care when we've got actual evidence that points towards someone being scum based on their character.How is the show not the theme?

I'll give a shit about theme when we can figure out what the theme is based onYou should perhaps give a shit about theme if you give a shit about winning?
I'm not talking about the show, I'm talking about what separates town/mafia

@RationalMadman
I've mostly skipped all of your theme analysis because I don't give a shit about theme. Besides, I was saying I'd rather lynch someone over no one.If you would rather lynch unccd Sally Rayburn than nobody, you're either mafia or mentally challenged.
Unless it's Budda. No matter your stance on him, we don't lynch him until DP3 if at all. If by DP3 he is confirmed, then he lives. If not, then we insta-lynch him. If he dies before DP3, it won't be from a lynch or from a townie's action.

Who gives a shit if you're "deleting a redundant post" or "just fixing a typo"? You shouldn't do it. There's no way of knowing, after all, if the post you sent me had some sort of scum tell, and you realized and edited or deleted it.So because there is no way of knowing it definitively, it automatically makes it evidence of guilt? Interesting
It shouldn't be "evidence of guilt", it should be "you're cheating, and I'm gonna modkill you for it".
The entire point of players being prohibited from editing posts is to prevent thatThere are plenty of behaviors that facially appear suspicious but ultimately are not indicative of affiliation in and of themselves. Such as advocacy for mass claiming. Should we make a rule against advocating for mass claims because it appears suspicious?
You are editing your own post. That's an action, not a behavior. My point isn't that "oh my god you edited your post that's suspicious". My point is that "oh my god you edited your post, that's cheating and you need to be modkilled".
You could literally post "I am mafia, here is my role, and my justification", and then edit it to say "Yeah that's sus, VTL [player]". Better yet, you could remove the post entirely, and no one would know unless they saw it before and then saw it disappear. Doing this is actually cheating, even if it's "not a rule".

... what?Nope, that discussion stalled out and no concensus was met on it. And why would there necessarily need to be? If you can't think of numerous reasons why editing or deleting might otherwise be done with good intent(sich as not having redundant posts) that's your own fault, not anyone elses 😂.
Who gives a shit if you're "deleting a redundant post" or "just fixing a typo"? You shouldn't do it. There's no way of knowing, after all, if the post you sent me had some sort of scum tell, and you realized and edited or deleted it.
The entire point of players being prohibited from editing posts is to prevent that. Don't just pass it off with "haha OMG LOOOOL" shit, it's a serious thing. I even advocated for making it a mod-killable offense when we were working on the first beginner game. If Lunatic didn't make it a rule, then he should have.
I know any games I mod will have a mod-killable consequence if such an action is reported, caught, seen, whatever. If it happens then it's a problem that I don't want to see. I'd hope everyone could see that.

Its important to stress that Rational is sus to me at this point, but he's still pretty much null from a non-vibe standpoint. His behavior fmpov cpuld reaaonably be coming from a town or scum. His pressure on those who are pressuring him, aka "omgus"("omg u suck") voting, is in line with his general behavior of retaliatory voting in response to people voting him.His thematic post that was, at best, less than entirely relevant, could be a town player being overzealous with contributing show knowledge, even if that knowledge might not be totally relevant.His paranoia of disclosing too much info to mafia by hypothesizing as to potential roles definite villain characters might be justified as having, though it doesn't make sense fmpov, is kind of in line with Rationals natural propensity towards such paranoia. Paranoia not to be taken in the negative sense, as townies should have a healthy dose of paranoia in acting.This final point though, is what moves him into sus territory. Because as I pointed out, refusing to hypothesize only really benefits mafia, as they already know their roles. Being willing to acknowledge he could ultimately still be town, operating in a manner that is benefits exclusively scum, as illustrared by the final point, is more than sufficient reason for a claim.Basically, the reason for claim is no longer exclusively him illustrating he is less than stellar at faking claims(beginners 1.2). We now have a sus behavior to back that up.
You give this reason for him being sus but "he's still pretty much null".
A majority of this looks like WIFOM. The only problem I have with it is what I just pointed out above

Yeah I did, I quoted exactly what you did in response to you saying all you've seen was me saying Rational should claim, and Rational telling me to kindly go off myself 😂.So i deleted the post cause it was unnecessary.
Isn't there a rule against editing or deleting posts? If not then there seriously needs to be one.

Vaarka's silence could just be that he hasn't made it online yet. However, if the day passes and he still doesn't post, it's gonna be sus cause he was one of the players urging Lunatic(TUF) to start the game.
lol I was waiting for a game link, didn't even know the game had started until you pinged me

No idea, I'm page 3Well he claimed at L-1, so following thru with a lynch on that refusal was unnecessary. But you at least reached the point where i explained why the lynch might be necessary.

I can agree with this, I'm not one to push claims unless I want to kill them, and I think most theme analysis is pointless.Revealing characters helps mafia narrow down PRs more than it helps us.

Any mislynch is a waste of resources. But think, would you rather mislynch RM or someone else?Don't be ridiculous. under normal circumstances, you are right...but this is RM. It's a wasted mislynch for town when we can do better things.

@Buddamoose
Fmpov if you aren't willing to follow up pressure via votes with lynching if that pressure is refused, then you might as well not demand claims at all cause the incentive is no longer there to otherwise claim.And then at that point, you may as well just VTNL DP1 from the get-go and not bother with it.Btw, how about we not VTNL on DP1? It wastes a whole lynch, like always. 7 v 2? Lynch every DP and you have 2 lynches before LYLO. VTNL and you only have 1 lynch until MYLO.DP1 lynch = 💯
Despite what I just said about "not going for the easy lynch", I'd rather lynch RM than lynch nobody

Omg, a role that doesnt neatly fit with a character! That's like, never happened before! 😂.
I'm serious though, people who use emojis in their posts unironically lose credibility. Js
Idk if it's just me or what but the fact that you use them just seems like a "omg haha lmao loooool" thing to discredit a point (even if it's wrong). I don't like seeing them.

Oh yeah update
the "hurricane" weather we were expecting was just a day and a half of moderate to light rain. It wasn't very windy.
The coast is screwed up (ik a guy in Wilmington whose house got washed out and has been living in his car), but here I think the worst that happened was a small flashflood at bottom of a hill and a car wreck a few miles off campus
aka I'm fine. I've gotten worse weather from a regular thunderstorm.
