hmm
you can be right, of course.
but if Korv did all that and he ends up being on my team, well then people on my team will be pretty screwed over by his crazy thinking, because I'm sure I'm not the only one who realizes that he's not with us.

Did you just claim Corleone?

wtf?
how do you get that from what I said?

I think you were replying to my bet that Korv is a Carleone. During which you said 'being on my team'.

I was replying to ruse.
we cross-posted

HP, Omtose voted for you, but we really don't have time for OMGUS votes right now...

Fair enough.

[Kaschan]

Yes, HP, you can nurture your hurt feeling AFTER we get a lynch...

[Galain]

[Kaschan]

OMGUS--Oh My God You Suck
WIFOM--Wine In Front Of Me.
FOS-- Finger of Suspicion/Full of #$(*

OMGUS is 'oh my god you suck'. Generally used to describe making a case/voting someone who did the same to you.

WIFOm is 'wine in front of me'. Have you ever watched The Princess Bride? The scene with the Sicillian and the Hero is where it is from. Wheels within Wheels.

There should be a mafia FAQ stickied somewhere.

Stuff like WIFOM and OMGUS are in the mafia guide aren't they? Go read through that quickly while you wait for the lynch

Wine In Front Of Me

and

Oh My God U Suck.

Basically getting yourself in a logic trap and voting for someone just because they voted for you.

[Ruse]

sure.

OMGUS = oh my god you suck... basically voting for another player for no reason other than you disliking him/his playstyle/car/gf/spelling/avatar.
WIFOM = wine in front of me - logic that can go both ways and make perfect sense but it is either one or the other
strawmanning = ask someone else I hate the term, can't really explain it well and the sooner its banned from Mafia, the happier I am.

[Galain]

thank you one and all!!

finger of suspicion just sounds plain dirty

...A drive by vote?...You actually want me to do that, D'Riss? Why are you so eager to get me to vote him?
Oh well, never mind,
Vote Korvalain
But I will think of what you said though, D'Riss. That's the type of unwanted eagerness I don't like.

He probably ran away to nurture his feelings and swear bloody revenge on Omtose. Or slaughtering a horse for Omtose to wake up with....

[Kaschan]

LMFAO

wow

now, HP, please vote...

Strawmanning is restating your opponents argument in much simplified and easier to refute state, so that you can refute it. You don't adress their actual argument, but some people are lazy and won't realize it.

[Tellan]

strawmanning is when you deliberately misstate someone else's case, so that their logic seems weak. Or put words in someone's mouth in some way or another. So basically 90% of mafia
