HF and steve are both misusing/trying to manipulate basic mafia terminology and I don't know whether to laugh or cry. You boys should take your beef back to the newbie games for a bit.

Sry about the bus photo I just had to do it, xD.
By bus I mean any any wagon, not only scum wagon. So by saying that I didn't imply that she is scum.

Mafia terms with meapak
Mafia Acronyms 103 Bandwagon (Bandwagoning)
-A bandwagon occurs, when someone decides to vote someone during the day phase as their lynch target, and the whole town follows, without having substantial evidence.
Use in context: "Steveling thought that the votes on Tamburini were a bandwagon and not a bus like he had previously stated."

So I nailed it with my 2nd try. That's good right?

Look dude, in that case lemme give you some free advice, take it for what it's worth I'm not trying to be condescending. It's not always necessary to be the guy doing the talking and if someone starts shit with you often times the towniest thing to do is give a response and walk away. Several times filter length has been mentioned and I'll say this; baring very few exceptions, the best, towniest players are not the guys with the longest filters.

so which is it, is he trying to manipulate it or is he misusing it?

Alright then. But then what should I do if someone is talking shit?

He had been talking a big game and shit earlier so I assumed he had at least played more but if this is really his second time I can see where the mistake would happen. HF on the other hand is manipulating because he is more experienced and is being intentionally thick but w/e, because of the general feel of the thread I've dropped that for now.

I'm boggled by the fact that marv said having a huge filter is good for town. It's not when there's nothing there but useless garbage that clogs up the thread and doesn't accomplish anything.
Also, who said we should lynch layabout? When you're talking about a guy that gets lynched day 1/2 a lot, maybe, just maybe you should take the quality of their play into consideration. Maybe I'm biased because I got lynched day 1 a lot for stupid reasons, but I still really want to kill Steveling today over anything and everything else for the moment.
I'd be really wary of people who say that just having a big filter is good for town. Steveling would be a terrible lynch. I get that you don't like his play, and his play is very spammy, but it's also very clearly town. Just because his spam is "contentless" doesn't mean it isn't genuine. Look at some of his other games - he plays like that all the time. If by all the time, you mean his one game as town...

I pointed out that he's gotten in shit fights as scum before. As a matter of fact, as town, he got in far less shitfights AND his posting was far more full of actual content.

Plus for getting in as many fights as he's had, in all of those, he's been the calm one in them. He's the one who cares about whether or not he gets in trouble for it.

He just seems as a whole so much more hyper and emotional in this game. Anyway, talk to me about some other people. Layabout, tambo, ritoky, etc. I agree that his play on face value looks different from Cell. But it also looks exceptionally different from Glory Hole. The trends in his play are far more reflective is his Cell game than his Gloryhole game. Like I really don't get how you could meta a player so awfully. Mine explaining why you've protected Scumeling so many times on bad meta?
I really don't know how to say it any better than I have: the guy has a fucking 10 page filter in 24 hours. If you think mafia can do that, you're insane.
But then again, I really don't feel like arguing any more since... a) There's no way I'm going to convince someone confirmation biased enough to call the guy "scumelling" over and overa gain. b) Steveling isn't getting lynched. My target of choice is. c) The "oats-whisperer" does not get to lecture me on how to interpret meta cases.
