Sponge, we cannot know for sure if that was actually written pre-game so I am treating it like it was written after the game started.

Why are you giving people advice on how to refute your cases against them, before you even make the cases?

While I agree that we should lynch someone if they are super scummy, I'd like to point out that voting for no lynch is an option. Assuming I'm interpreting the rules/setup right, mafia only has 1 kp so there's no immediate motive for lynching such as reducing kp. It may be a stronger play to not lynch and hope that cop(if there is one) gets a turn to check before lynch. It is a risk though because I believe we are not guaranteed to have a cop. Just an idea I wanted to throw out and get your guys' thoughts on.

This post is scummy. Gives a reason for jkirbys post and then casts doubt on it. U scum? I'd be very interested in hearing your explanation as to why you honestly think this is scummy.

My personal opinion is that no lynches are stupid, because the situation would only get worse (a nightkill occuring) Nothing interesting and new is going to come up from a no lynch, because the only result for town is more time to read/post/talk/whatever but we can just spend more time on the game if we want more time to analyze. No lynching throws away the tool the town uses to root out scum. Heck, rereading that post, you agree with the consensus, and then just talk about nothing. That entire post was, I daresay...superfluous.
(I thought the game began at six not four)

How does the cop inform the town without letting the scum know that he is the cop?

I certainly wouldn't post that if I were scum, it is nothing but a good thing for town. Why WOULD he want to post that as scum?

It's scummy because it's renouncing jkirbys jokepost while he gave a reason for it. He never explains why this joking around is suspicious just passively finger points.
I want to hear elaboration.

Correct. I would not have posted this particular post as scum.

That's not even specific to this no lynch strategy, or whatever how will the cop EVER let town know the result without revealing he's a cop? (I certainly have no fucking clue)

Because if I make a case based on meta, that's a red flag for me and I need to re-evaluate it.

But you might have posted another post starting with the same line. Or maybe you did post that as scum. But you certainly would never have said: The following was written on the contingency I got Scum in my role PM.

This is correct. In general, these sorts of posts should result in a null read in a veteran game. But Early Day 1, when it's generally assumed nothing interesting is happening, seemed like a good time to get PSA's out of the way for a newbie crowd.
The info is valuable, but it should not get me town cred. It's more important to me that there's a town consensus on the actual content of the post, not my alignment. (Plenty of time for that later.)

Superfluous, please keep talking about stuff, that single post left an extremely shitty taste in my mouth I want to get a more solid read on you. That single entrance screams scum to me though

Hahaha! Very right you are, I hadn't thought of that.

Guys, arguing about the way he posted that is totally irrelevant. I got a town read from it, because it was solid shit. But nitpicking at it is not too relevant. Specifically what Jrkirby said:

Of course he wouldn't say it, that'd be retarded. Why are you even bringing it up?

So then show us the post that you would have posted if you rolled scum, eh?

To get this out of the way right now, if anyone has any questions such as this regarding blue roles then I suggest you talk to a coach. We are all VTs in here.
