Besides, that claim was a breadcrumb to my real role so it wasn't even a lie. It is a a couple logical leaps to arrive there so I'm comfortable announcing this

Game started this morning Keats, it’s a first vote for a death Miller joke claim? That’s kindof all it is.

And your reactions don’t really feel great here, kind of.. extra? Too much? But it’s still mostly just a death miller joke vote

What are you trying to say here? You listed after Yuming's claim without comment on it. So voting for my claim can rightfully be called hopping over Yuming's claim. If you want to say my claim was more worth commenting, you can say that. I've just made an observation

I mean, death miller is different than miller, so yeah. Yours is more worth commenting on.

I think a miller claim after already claiming an investigating role for 5 posts is worth commenting on, just the same as a first-post death miller claim that was probably a joke. But what do I know

Keats. Are you aware you've mixed up AFQM and yuming?

AFQM claimed an investigative role.

yuming claimed miller as her first post.

Confusing AFQM and Yuming is an odd mistake to make with avatars that don't look terribly similar. That said, I don't personally get much value out of this d1 swinging. I also am not sure staring at the Miller claim is too valuable either, but I'll admit I only played in one game with a Miller and that one VERY quickly blew up due to the sheer number of out of sequence deaths that occurred so I'll instead pose a question: What is actionable about a Miller claim that is any different from someone just saying "I'm Town"? Unless someone has a Day Investigate or something

Speaking of weird roles, and probably not useful information...What is a Death Miller? What does 'Death' modify on there?

Eh. Keats mixing up two players is a townlean for me. ScumKeats doesn't make that mistake, but townKeats plays fast and loose on D1.

Miller investigates as scum but is town. Their flip when killed will reflect this, stating they were on the town team. Sometimes this includes things like a gunsmith (can Kill/can not kill), sometimes it's exclusive to a cop (Town/not Town).

Death miller investigates as town, and is town. Their flip will not reflect this though, stating they were on the scum team.

Death miller is generally considered poor form from the mod, as it means that mod communications (the flips) can't be trusted.

I have confused these two in the past. Something to do with the color avatar not really being *that* colorful and both feature human women, as well as both being IRL women too (I think). Anyway that is definitely what happened

I was a Reverse Death Miller in my very first game one million years ago, but the game was based around them.

All the more reason to assume that Keats was joking, like he does in 99% of games

Oh weird. I've definitely played in a game or two with 'false' death flips like that, but they were rolls that 'burned the body', as in someone being killed by this action just doesn't reveal at all.

Anyway, I'll have to, at least at present, accept that you know they'd be more careful than that as scum, though I don't know if it's especially a good idea to use info/behaviors from past games to inform this one.

Non-flips are a "sometimes" thing and typically referred to as being "janitored."

That sounds like a flavor miller. They've been popular in role madness-y games lately. Like, for example, in touhou mafia town youkai were flavor millers.

Oh I'm also on Uplift 4. Or possibly Uplift trilogy 2 book 1? It's not as good a series as Hyperion. The first one was fun and the overall concept is kinda interesting, but I wasn't super engaged by the 2nd or 3rd books.
