Paper Mario Mafia Chapter 1 (DP1)

Crying about muh WIFOM does not invalidate said argument. This is mafia, a game where town and mafia alike constantly make arguments about who's what, based on behavior, including arguments about what someone would or wouldn't do as scum. No one reasonable is gonna handwaive away an argument because WIFOM. If we all did, there'd be no arguments to have at all.

Ah yes, I'm scum and under high pressure. I have a really good fake claim that Earth has given me and could use to get out of this situation, but nah, I'll let my scum partner use it instead. Then, let me claim cop, watcher, doctor all at once, because I have the room temp required to fake claim three of the most common town roles as mafia.

In Ace Attorney Mafia, you were tunneling me, and one of your arguments is that you have a lot of respect for my scum play. Here, you seem to think my scum play is troglodyte level. Which is it?

Notice how you said I figured one or two of the roles I claimed were safe. You haven't even brought yourself to say I'd think all three were safe! But I'm sure you can gaslight yourself into actually believing that sooner or later, based on what I've seen so far.

The skill and ability of the player also kind of goes with the WIFOM though. I am more likely to believe you are capable of high level wifom for example than a noob or someone who just doesn't do it often.

1) Earth may not have given a fake claim, so you yoloed into saying the most absurd thing possible

2) Earth did give you the fake claim and you used it

3) Your character and role is Bowser and JOAT but you are Mafia, and you guessed what roles town would/would not have.

What were your reasons for voting Mharman (before he claimed)

Getting the Star Rod have Bowser a ton of new abilities, and became near invincible because of it. You are free to look up the plot of Paper Mario in the Super Mario Wiki. I think Casey linked it on page 2

Scum are more likely to be inflexible with reads and cerulean doesn't like changing his vote or reads. 

suggesting wild busses would not be new for scum

I think cerulean should be on everyone's radar TBH as well. There is a scum tell that I am seeing, but I don't like mentioning it because it is one I know I fuck up with a lot.

I'd also be willing to lynch him or her

I can’t answer why backup isn’t a role. I will also state that you don’t know what the other town PRs are, or what scum has. 

Anyway, I know I’m not lying.

As for Bowser: 1. We are clearly all bosses from the Original Paper Mario. This has long been established. Earth has stated there is a theme split and that mafia has been given a fake claim. I’m willing to think that Earth gave them a fake claim because what they have as is not easily spun as town. Specifically, their characters… I’m thinking Mario and Peach are the scum characters. Could also be party members Mario can add to his team in Paper Mario

I did not, at any point, suggest a wild bus was happening. I refuted a point about one that Lunatic made to Pie.

Earth literally confirmed scum was given a fake claim…

At which point you’d have to believe JOAT doc, watch, and cop was a fake claim given to me

and so I guessed town wouldn’t have three of the most common roles in the entire game? Lol

I thought I was pretty clear in the post where I did it, as well as this one talking about his pressure on Cerulean.

That weak reasoning on Cerulean was the beginning of it, but his defense of it stood out to me as curious, with him saying that he would never behave this way as scum. I didn't love that he seemed to be dictating to us what his scum behavior would look like, especially since tunneling on a player or suggesting wild busses would not be new for scum. He was much more defensive than I thought was warranted based on limited sussing from Luna, especially since he hadn't had a vote on him up to that point. The shift to Barney near the end of that night set me on edge as well, it felt like an attempt to put pressure on an inactive player to defray pressure from himself rather than respond to Casey, who had cast a vote on him without response before this. Also, given how defensive he was, I wanted to see how he'd respond to new pressure. Suffice it to say his full claim was not the response I expected

Whiteflame’s vote on Mharman right after Luna’s is very interesting 

Scum are more likely to be inflexible with reads and cerulean doesn't like changing his vote or reads.
