Honest Meta

Quick question for people who are better at this than me:

What's the deal with honest meta again? Is it considered OGI if someone has a meta that they stick to and is known by the community / tables a person plays with? (IE "I always and only say "town here" as town", or "I only pinky swear if I'm town").

I don't remember any of the past verdicts on this.

Thanks guys.

What is it?

What if George Washington played mafia?

i think you'd have had to look through her other games to accurately assess that report. :p

https://epicmafia.com/report/94474 - here's the report that Connor was talking about and what I was thinking of. History's expired, but as I recall this took place over many of her games.

Kennedy was one of the smuggest scum players around and it was always a hilarious spectacle when his overwrought diabolical strategies backfired

Yeah let me see if I can find the report hold on.

IIRC there was a case recently with Pinacolada where she said "I only claim town as town" and it affected her games, I don't remember the ruling on it though.



i don't know the context, but that could range from self-meta to towntell to honest meta.

I think Jack might've actually been telling the truth about that. He told me and Cirno in private and I remember him showing us a screenshot and I don't think he ever did anything with it.

it's a lot harder to prove you wouldn't say something as mafia than it is to prove you wouldn't kill someone as mafia

Yeah N1 kill meta is a bit different, usually I'd only mention it if the person who died linked me to the game or something. I could see it being a huge issue if someone ran with their friends and did it every game they were town.

Peta says

As I recall it was really plausible that Kennedy just plain role-shared with his various puppets but it was never really cut-and-dried.


this was what people thought. supposedly he was more blatant during a run back in 2.0 but it was before my time so i don't know

eritas said he outright asked him to role share once but of course that's completely unverifiable and of course eritas isn't exactly a reliable source


Jack also said this.

Shacky says

honest meta is more "I'd never kill X as mafia," more than "I'd never say X as mafia."


There have been plenty of gimmick accounts revolving around the latter but yeah, I don't think any of them has ever come close to winning a trophy.

thebrontosaurus says

I see, I always thought of honest meta more of as "I never say X when I'm mafia", not so much as related to someone else being in the game, but that makes sense since there's definitely overlap.

And thanks Retti for the history lesson.


it depends, it can either be a self proclaimed statement such as that or be related to someone in the game, the real point is that if it's used too frequently then it becomes a problem and should be worthy of some sort of violation, in my opinion.
