I denied I was town?
I asked mod for clarification and he assured me that I’m town.

hey

Wait…
THEY’RE DIFFERENT PEOPLE?!

Parsec, why didn’t you describe your role as a miller? It’s standard terminology

Why did you think this?

After reading some theory, it looks like you have played the role optimally, so I’m not going to question this too much. If anyone has a counter claim this is where they would step forward right? Otherwise we should treat you as named Townie? Does that mean that we should expect to see you NK’ed N1? Lots of questions, I know.

@Nanook, I’ll take a look at the game you sent. I always read some of the games on the site even if I’m not playing, just so I don’t run into any surprises when it comes to style.

@AKFD I don’t think Srceenplay denied that he was Town, but rather was making the point that _ffery perhaps at that stage couldn’t know?

@ActionDan, did you miss the sentence that followed right after what you quoted? I don’t know yet whether Cats is Town or not. Volume can only be part of why anybody is viewed any particular way, though it seems like it is slightly predictive of Cats’ alignment. Some people are clearly better at hiding their alignment than others, so I just don’t know yet.

I didn’t miss it, but it looked like the first part was a clear judgement while the second was more of a throwaway (“I think you’re town, unless you’re not”).

The answer to this is an unequivocal yes. Don’t worry about the rest of the questions in that paragraph.

I think you’re reading too much into it - Cats is worried about my alignment because I was able to successfully appear as Town when playing Scum last game we played together. I was making a comforting remark in that I was hoping that my play would over time clarify it’s not the case here. Unless Cats is Scum that is, in which case my comforting remark does not do anything because Cats already knows my alignment. It certainly wasn’t a throw-away remark. I do respect the skepticism though, but it wasn’t meant as seriously as you are interpreting it.

And why are you answering for Parsec? You should let him tackle the questions I posed, and decide whether some of them are worth answering or not. As I stated, I don’t play many games with a lot of roles, so I haven’t encountered a Miller role. It’s not out of the question that Scum would fakeclaim Miller, from what I read, but in my head it seems unlikely that’s what we’re getting here.

UNVOTE: ActionDan

I’m starting to get worried about the wagon building on Urist - do you have any thoughts on that?

It’s funny, I also remember making the mistake of confusing _ffery with ffery, our Mod, the first time I played with _ffery.

@Josh, hey! Do you have any thoughts on the game so far?

@Andresvmb, thanks that’s an edifying response, and why it’s important to ask these kinds of questions since otherwise I would not have been able to understand your remark.

With regard to parsec, there are times when answering certain questions no matter the answer will not benefit town; this is one such time.

I’m not worried about the Urist wagon in particular since I don’t townread him. I won’t pretend that I sympathize with his voters however since

I don’t sympathize with his voters’ concerns either though.*

Fair enough. I won’t press further then.

Can you clarify why you don’t Townread Urist? I’m intrigued, since you disagree with the reasons why others are voting for him.

As part of my role.

Dude, you played with me in Twits, where I also spent the first bit of the game taking the piss.
And you are reacting the exact same way to me now as you did then: trying to discuss it without giving an opinion on it.
You rolled scum again, didn’t you?

Which character are you?

If you like lotr and modern history (as your avatar suggests), i think we might get along.
What year is that map from? I wanna guess 1850 but I’m pretty bad at the guessing thing.

Even without a counter-claim, it’s still possible that parsec is lying scum. Miller isn’t a super common or popular role so I don’t think it’s a risky claim, although it does fit a certain character pretty well.
