Handy link.

To sum up: It's a situation where the possibility of someone doing something to make you think something is high.

Like if I said right before being lynched that I was the cop or doctor.

Quick question: What does WIFOM mean?
Read the beginner's Mafia thread. I put some common terms at the bottom to help newbies.

Ah, cool.  I was trying to fit "Finger of" and "Wanted" onto it.

That would smack of scum desperation, to me.  I mean, it wouldn't help a towny much (the mafia would probably night kill him anyway).

True, but then it's a buffer, isn't it?

Also, if that person's claim is genuine, the Mafia may let him live to cast suspicion on him - another WIFOM.

Mafia is basically just one huge WIFOM.

True in a way, since, y'know, everyone is trying to make someone else think they're something they aren't.

Also, webadict, I'm sure you're familiar with that trick from Paranormal 1.

Yeah, in paranormal almost everyone claims to be town, which obviously can't be the case as games often only have one or two actually townies...

I know that, but usually there are quite a lot of roles.  In round 6 there was one towny.

yes, that's why I strongly suggested the mod to give more townies per game and allow 2 roles in the same team...
