Lack of terms/vocab words.

deletedalmost 7 years

So I usually play w/ vocab words underlined that way whenever any of these words are used it's easier to see/find them, but I've noticed that some of these aren't counted as vocab words despite being used in just about all games. I'm hoping that we could add some of these, mainly the more common ones to the vocab list that way new players can learn them faster.

Post any other vocab words you think should be added, or any corrections. Current definitions are examples, final definitions are up to whoever makes them.

TL;DR - This is just a suggestion list of words to add to the current Vocab list.

NK/No Kill - When Mafia choose to not kill during the night.

Auto - When the game results in town win no matter what happens.

Hammer - To place the final vote to in order to lynch/nl a player.

Clear - When a players alignment is confirmed.

TR/Town Read - When a player believes another play is Town sided based off their actions/behavior.

SR/Scum Read - When a player believes another play is Maf sided based off their actions/behavior.

Towny - When a player's actions/behavior looks Town sided.

Scummy - When a player's actions/behavior looks Maf sided.

Policy -

Lynch - To vote a player causing them to die.

Confirmed - When a player is proven to be a role.

Hardclaim - To claim your role and no other role.

Kick - Choosing to kick when the "Kick players" option is up.

Lurk - Actively watching the game's discussion but not participating in it.

Dumbtell - When a player says or does something dumb to look town.

Fakeclaim - To claim a role that is not yours.

RS/Roleswap - To swap roles w/ another player.

Filler - Saying non-game related lines.

Sheep - To follow another player without thinking.

Blitz - When a player rushes the vote in their favor.

Bus - When a Mafia accuses/fos their partner to look towny.

Massclaim - When everyone claims a role, usually causing Mafia to CC/Fakeclaim.

KL/Kicklynch - To kick and lynch a player in order to avoid ranked games from going unranked/veggers.

Noavi - A player who uses the default Profile Pic.

what is 'policy'?


A lynch that is done in certain circumstances regardless of other evidence or best practice.

Virgin is always lynched to prevent anyone dying, even if you have a guilty report.

In Sandbox, players without an avatar are always lynched first.

In comp set ups with a cop where it gets CCd, some players will always lynch a guilty report to "test" the cop.

thats noavi policy, policy just means a lynch where it is customary to lynch in a certain way due to optimality, ie. lynching virgin would be policy

I mean, vocab doesn't have to be just strategies. "Policy" wont be said in ranked games, so it being added as vocab won't hurt ranked games. It pops up enough in unranked and sandbox that I think it should be added so the people being policy lynched can actually find out why they are being voted and it will actually encourage them to get an avatar.

How about common short names for roles?

i.e. Nilla for vanilla mafia, gs for gunsmith, bs for blacksmith, etc

What can we possibly add? I feel like it's pretty filled, and nothing has changed.

How is hardclaim stupid, it's a very common term used in games. Remember, the point of this forum is to update current Vocab words w/ some of these so new players know them. Not asking for each and every one to be added tho, just suggesting.
