I'm an ascetic cop.
sounds like town, will leave alive.
Me too
give me some fluff for the miller. Does nin explain it? Character wise.

So a miller means investigative roles. So in case the real cop didn't watch PW, splinter and I are joking about ascetic cop. Don't counter claim ffs.
It's hard to state it without directly quoting the PM, but basically it's because of the character of CM Punk. I don't know about any wrestlers, but I'd assume he would fit the bill then.
The justification was really brief, just one sentence long, so I'm not really able to paraphrase it, and direct quoting is obviously a no-no.

I agree with the idea that we shouldn't dwell on the Miller discussion, let's just have it play out before we jump towards it.

I think I agree with this. Frankly, ever since how HP Mafia went down I've felt that it's best for a Miller to delay claiming as long as possible so that they can at least build up a strong pro-town reputation (all the better if they never happen to be investigated) , because otherwise it's a distraction- especially on D1 when we really have little reason to trust somebody either way.
Goddamnit burb, you know that basically makes you a policy lynch in my eyes. It's even worse cause you're one of a few players who might be brave enough to make that claim as scum/neutral too. Barring any other shenanigans, you're the safest lynch.
I was planning to just no lynch and bail cause i fucking hate Day 1 too.
For now:
Vote: Burbeting
That's a bit bastard of a role too, which is hopefully not a trend.

I think D1 miller claim makes little sense as a scum gambit.
Yaayy we're being sensible about a miller claim.
Yea it would take a really fucking dumb scum player to do that.

Policy lynches are fucking stupid. This is a game about scum hunting not about getting people to play how you want.
Unless you think Burb is pulling a Xam.

I think this is 8/10, millers are well within the expected roles.
As for your vote, I think you know already that this won't gain steam. So did you mean "safest lynch" or just "safest vote"?
Day 1 Claim is the only sensible play for a miller role, because it makes sure the possible investigative powers won't waste their powers on them. In worst case scenario, a cop would out themselves because "they found scum", only for town to lynch the miller, and then scum night killing cop afterwards.
Sweet it started! Hey everyone, I'm super psyched to wrestle with words and possibly gifs. I'm at work at the moment, but I'll try to keep up when I get chances to during the day. Worst case I'll just catch up when I get back home. Though I'd chime in and say that I also think that we should let the whole Miller thing be for now since it seems like it'll be potentially distracting from looking at other players and such. Though I guess getting player reactions to the Miller would be useful too? But at the moment it seems like most people have the same opinion on it. Am down to move on.
Thanks for the welcome! I'm not really sure who to vote for myself but I guess I'll hold off for now? I know that in some previous games people have done RNG, but it seems like some votes have already been cast. Or is it better to get the ball rolling with a bunch of votes from a bunch of people?Greetings, fellow wrasslers.
I'd like to extend the warmest of welcomes to our new gal, nukedeggs.
Let's all give her the GAFia welcome, put it there buddy..
VOTE: nukedeggs
Let's begin.

Just want to drop a quick reminder here, forgive the interruption. Anytime accusations start flying, it's tempting to drop your role claim like it's some kind of force field. Beware! Roleclaiming too early can be just as harmful as not role claiming at all. Offering up who you are too early can paint a huge bullseye on your back. Now, I'm not saying don't do it as a last resort. I just don't want our power roles to get picked off too early.
Bah, sorry. I didn't mean to go all Sorian. The fact is, though, that someone has to say it. Can't be too careful, right? Heck, we can't all be Xam and survive after a day 2 roleclaim.
Enough of that, though.
Someone has to die today, who is it gonna be?

It's all on you, player. I like to throw my vote around because it usually gets people talking, and why not welcome you into the game with a nice shiny vote. Your reaction was what I was looking for, and this seems a pretty ok response.

Saying it's the "only" way to do things sounds a little extreme for me, but I suppose I can agree that your scenario would be extremely frustrating if it were to happen.
Why it's a policy lynch I agree with from the mafia wiki:
Burb absolutely did the right thing, and as much as some of you might hate it, we also have to consider doing the right thing. Lynching a miller is slightly better than lynching ordinary town, barring any obvious scum. For any new players:

I'd rather lynch scum though
Also PRs are over rated. Miller Burb is still entirely capable of destroying the scum team.
I think it's a great claim if we continue to treat miller claims as Named Townies, which seems to be the desire of everyone but me. I know people rail against meta but it exists for a reason. Ours is weird in that it hates neutrals but continuously allows bold claims to survive.
Anyway, I'm not going to discuss burb further as it just wastes time, as it will continue to do every time his miller status comes up.
Sorry you got shit on by rng burb.
Did I miss nin announcing an actual bastard scale? I thought it was unknown.

Or we could you know, lynch actual scum.
Nin retorted with nin/10, and I assumed that meant 'anything goes because I am nin and I don't give a sweet fuck'
Who's the first scum Corny? Amaze us with the hot pick
I appreciate the attitude but Palmer's pragmatism makes sense, I'll vote on Bear if I believe we're heading down the wrong lynch. Townie or scum on D1 is okay.
I am making it clear now that I am assuming Bear is nothing more than a Miller.
Aka the bastardest
The problem with Miller is that they make the experience of the player much less fun. I have never really hidden the fact that I wasn't having much fun during my short time in HP.
Not commenting on Palmer's vote, he is fine to have those opinions, and frankly lot of them makes sense. The chances to lynch scum during D1 are usually low, but let's see for now.
