Mtlv plays by doing a broken strat until it finally works then uses that one time to justify all the other times she does it after. Ether that or she moves onto doing a new broken strat.

Fake claiming is a strat that can be beneficial to town if done properly. The issue you have with doing it, mtlve, is that you do it all the time rather than at opportune times, which results in poor play.

instead of making all these threads maybe just stop fake claiming every role in the game...


argue how my fake claim in that game was bad?


its not, until you get shot by the sheriff for claiming his role and refusing to retract

then when that happens 3 more times, thats when people get angry at your fake claims

its not necessarily wrong, but most people have a difficult time understanding why you would continue to do a strat if it loses you more games than win


why would the sheriff shoot someone that claims sheriff? why would the mafia claim sheriff and risk getting shot?

if the sheriff is trash enough to shoot there, it is better that they just shoot me when i am blue and then the bs can try to fun vest...


im pretty sure you can answer those questions yourself pretty easily, because for every reason you think claiming sheriff as town is pro-town, the opposing is true for mafia (confusing prs vs confusing mafia, maybe even getting sheriff killed and losing towns ML/etc)

also, not sure how you think it can be okay for town to claim sheriff and risk getting shot but suddenly its out of this world for mafia to claim sheriff and risk getting shot

even the game that i got a trolling vio for doing this, we won the game because of my fake claiming. the sheriff tr me for this so we basically had auto lynching in blues because of it. you guys would probably call this a bad game as you gave me a vio for it!

Fakeclaiming is an antitown move/strat. Doesn't matter what your intent is, why do something that brings more harm than good to town?


point out how i harmed this game? i carried that game because of it

why cc at all as mafia then. you lose some and you win some. you have to take the risk to help out your side. what i do is no different


I am saying the strat in general is an antitown move as all it does is fish for PRs to out, confuse town's reads, etc.

Also, how is it fair that you are only linking that one game that your strat worked but not linking the many other games where it failed horribly?


so we should not cc cop as mafia now for those times that we cc horribly like my cc did this game by guilting a clear?

there is always a risk but the benefit outways the risk. we can start a thread for bad faking i guess but usually that is just town refuses to consider that i might be town and fake claim or to think in general

Imagine being such a sheep-herdmind bad player that you view all plays outside the norm as anti town just because low quality low skill players like you don't know how to use them to gain an advantage

EVEN IN COMP. DEVELOP A BRAIN AND INDEPENDENT THOUGHT PROCESS

mtlve get better at fake claiming lvao you can do it tactfully /not just blindly and still be tr after


i always do it it tactfully and not blindly. everything that i do is calculated. typically i claim it there to get blue read by mafia as pr and to out the pr. i was actually hoping that he would not out there even and i would be vested and not hooked cop...

You are a troll, all your motives are to troll, all your strats are trolling. You fake claim at the most unoptimal times just to fish roles and put town at even more of a disadvantage.
