Why do I look so scummy?

Because I'M BRAND FREAKING NEW TO MAFIA!!!

I look so suspicious because I am trying to make myself look so absurd no one would see me as a mafia member.

TacoDan just wants to get rid of me because he is afraid I make him look bad.

And no one gets reasons from me because they would make me too obvious for lynching by the mob because it would show how accurate my reasoning is!

As you've probably guessed, your tactic for avoiding suspicion just ends up backfiring on you. I learned the hard way in my first two games that town should not go out of their way to avoid suspicion, that's a very obviously scummy thing to do. On top of that, acting weird to avoid suspicion has never helped ANYONE as far as I know.


And no one gets reasons from me because they would make me too obvious for lynching by the mob because it would show how accurate my reasoning is!
This part I don't get either, the job of town isn't to not die, it's to root out and kill scum. You see, even if you die, and town wins, you still win. How does accurate reasoning get you lynched? And how do we know your reasoning is so accurate?


I'm sorry, but this looks too much like a final plea of scum backed into a corner, and it's also way too little, way too late. It might have worked mid-day 2, but not now.

Unvote. Zrk2, seriously? Start trying. You're only hurting yourself. You'll get nowhere if you act absurd and don't explain your reasonings. You're scum, even a complete noob would know better. It's mylo, stop fooling around.

Taco Dan, you're not off the hook, Zrk2 is just scummier right now.

No, but there should always be a lynch, Except in MyLo.
That's why I left my vote on you.
Wait, so you didn't look for someone else to vote who was looking more scummy? Like Zrk2 for instance? Ladies and gentlemen, we have our scumteam!

I'm boardning the Zrk2 bandwagon. Yiu don't have to shout our your noobishness to all, because not only are we all noobs here, but also because it doesn't provide a good defense. We're not stupid either. The  Jester tactic is unfortunate if true, because our duty as town is not to appear towny but to root out scum. In doing so, we must be rational, observant, calm and calculating. If you really are Town, you are only hurting us by being 'absurd'. If you are scum, which you likely are, you are using weak arguments and reasoning to further your case. You're trapped in a corner, and you're panicking.

Because you are scum.

Sorry for lurkiness yalls, if you noticed. I was busy working on a number of things IRL. Like my English essay(s).

Here's who I think is scum:
Zrk- he's trying to be absurd so no one suspects him. Since a good mafia tactic (from what I've gathered at least) is to AVOID suspicion. From his posts, i've inferred that he's innovating.

Ottofar- Knew he made a mistake and didn't change his vote. He says there should always be a lynch, and that was his reason for not voting. This Strikes me as being rather scummy

Question is, Who's the third one? or are there only 2?

I'm pretty sure there's only two, seeing as how pretty much everyone else is pointing at Zrk2.

That, and there's 6 of us left. If there were 3 mafia they would have won already

Really? Giving up so soon?

This is possibly the worst thing you can do in any game. I'd have gladly listened to any better points you could have come up with, and it may even have saved you, but now your fate is as good as sealed.

This just confirms that he's scum, really. Just giving up is not a non-scum trait

Would anyone else like to vote for a shorten? It seems we have Zrk2 pinned and he's not even fighting back.
