	> Defense
		A sufficient defense need to cover all possible methods in which you can be mafia. You can't simply rely on "fmpov
	 i'm not mafia therefore i am not" arguments, you have to speak from everyone else's point of view. That's the only way
	 that would be convincing. Speaking confidently and from a town point if view is IMPORTANT, but if you are in a position
	 where you need to defend, you have to speak from other people's point of views and show them how you can't be mafia no
	 matter how many ways you slice it. Three things have to happen in a defense:
		- Showing everyone how you have HURT the mafia.
		- Showing everyone else how you have HELPED town.
		- An "I cannot be mafia because these actions do not make sense for mafia" (NOT "i can't be mafia because
		  mafia would not do this") statement.

		Follow this format and you should be safe.
			EX. I'm not mafia because when I helped clear madains, that was something that helped town. We didn't
			    have any clears before that, so I could have just stayed silent instead of speaking up and giving us
			    a clear. Besides, I've been FOSing people and I think my FOS's have basis. Like, when I FOS'd Seph.
			    It wasn't a random FOS at all. It was an FOS based off of the fact that she DID speak up early. And,
			    even though I could be mafia at this point, I'm probably not because if you look at the field, I haven't
			    buddied with anyone at all, and if anything I've pushed so hard on everyone equally, it's obvious I'm
			    looking for reactions. And I don't think it would make sense for mafia to push so hard because then mafia
			    could risk sabotaging their own partners by forcing reactions like that.

	> Anti-Filler Prevention
		Ask yourself:
       		 	A. Does this help find mafia?
        		B. Does this help narrow down suspects?
        		C. Does this help move town forward?
 		If the answer to any of those is NO, do not even say it. Staying silent is better (at least for now).

	> EASY NON-FILLERY STATEMENTS
        	- FOSing
                	An FOS should always follow the format:
                                                        "I FOS [PLAYER] for [BUZZWORD]. [EVIDENCE]"
                        EX. "I fos Kyouko for fillering. I feel like if you are town you wouldn't mention having to scumhunt
                             because you are already scumhunting. I also fos mimi for sheeping. She said earlier she couldn't
                             really come up with an FOS but then started ganging up on seph when madains fos'd seph."
        	- TRing
              	  	Similar to FOSing, TRing should follow the format:
                                                        "I TR [PLAYER] for [REASON]. [EVIDENCE]"
                        EX. "I TR Mimi because she hasn't really been fillering. Everything she's said has really helped town
                             to move forward. I also TR madains because I think madains has been active in trying to find the
                             mafia and if they were scum they could have just not pointed out that seph has to be the agent by
                             process of elimination."
        	- Theories
                        EX. "I don't think Kii and Pine could be a team because they've been pushing on each other really hard
                             this entire game. Besides, they can't be a team anyway because then that would mean that Seph is
                             mafia and I don't think Seph is mafia."
