And how did they handle the first day phase?
I can't remember if they skipped it or lynched someone based off of nothing. Of course, they lynched people based off nothing regardless.

Since I don't watch the show, that's definitely good to know.

Typically, in almost all forms, with nothing to go on, there is a somewhat random voting phase, if only to see how people react. There really is no "why" about it.

Lynch Sir for not watching the Office. Seriously, that's unforgivable.

Quite to the contrary, I haven't had any TV reception for most of the last eight years.

plus he blurted VANILLA right off the bat which suggests a guilty conscience.

What am I chopped liver?
Oh snap I missed you on the player list, sorry bud. Yeah It's been a minute since we played together but I definitely remember you being one of the better players. I'll have to see how your play has progressed

I’d disagree. I think we should lynch someone, otherwise we’ll be at square one again. 
I'm all for day phase 1 lynching, I am just not sure I am down with policy lynching and would prefer a VTNL. I have seen and been a part of policy lynches as town against someone who is probably town but playing poorly. The policy lynch thing seems more about teaching the person a lesson rather than having the goal to win. Instead if I think someone's play is going to be consistently bad in any game I play with them if they are town, I'd rather just opt out of future games with said person than lose more precious mis-lynches over someone who is probably town and just being an idiot.

I blurted vanilla because you pressured me, and I didn't have the experience to know better. However, I don't feel any guilt for not watching the office. Reading history books is a vastly superior activity.

could be noob reaction but that's not exculpatory.  VANILLA is a likely enough claim for a panicking scum noob

Yea I can see that.

But I highly doubt they would put him in mafia without an experienced player on his team to tell him not to claim right away and claim vanilla. I mean that's basic stuff. I do think it's noob reaction

Congratulations. It's pretty rare when I have to look up a word, but you have just succeeded.

I don't really know how to respond to that. I'm town, but there is no information available in DP1 for me to use to defend myself. However, history will vindicate me.

The day phase just barely started, actually. This game is more active already than my first day phase in dark crystal was in the same time period lol. Also more people will be active, but I know some people are probably at work.

Going off of a hunch, I'd say 3.

Going off of the mod explicitly saying that there is 3, I'd also say 3.

But who knows.

Check the OP. It was edited to say that it is 10 town vs. 3 mafia.

No one should be claiming roles anyway. How do you think I was able to off all the power roles in TUF's last game?

All the Vanillas outed themselves.

What ever happened to first level pressure results in character claim and you had to pressure more for role claim?

This. Vanilla is a crazy powerful role, it annoys me how quickly people claim. Mafia killing a vanilla is a big win.

The mod decided to let in a new player who didn't know what he was doing. Not very intelligent to let in such a noob, in my opinion, but what can you do?

We would normally have a begginer series for all new players who are interested, but

A) Budda is AWOL
B) Not enough noobs here since most people who play maf came from DDO
