The Half Monty [Concluded]

[Zack]

If you want to see how I acted when I was innocent and being lynched, look at Those Darn States and Zelda Mafia on TWC.

As for sarcasm in general, clicky. (Day 6)

Ah, sarcasm. A townie's best friend.

It's tough to be sarcastic and lie at the same time. It feels very dirty.

Try it, because sarcasm is based on what YOU find funny or ironic. If you don't believe your lie is the truth, then you don't think sarcasm based on that lie is funny, because it's not funny to YOU, because you know what the real truth is.

Humor is an important weapon in mafia games. If the joke is off, that indicates there's something wrong with your sense of humor. Which means you're uptight, anxious, stressed, or lying.

Which means you're scum.

Here, the sarcasm works. It fits a relaxed but irritated psychological state. The sarcasm is quick, biting, and honest. That's townie. That's something you can take to the bank.

Try telling jokes about your lies, in a way that you find directly funny, not funny in a meta-sense. It's hard to tell a joke you find funny while lying, because it doesn't "ring true".

Jokes are serious business.

As for not looking hard for scum, what I'm doing with fluffy has worked in a similar style of game hosted by ATPG before (not exactly the same, but similar).

As for suspects, I think that we should be concentrating on fluffy and slashandburn.
