Retired or Antiquated Inside Jokes:

Pulling/Doing an eHunt: Drunk posting, often in a hilarious way. See MVI.

Pulling a Bozzball: Lurking oneself out of a game, from either faction. Generally caused by an apathetic attitude towards the game rather than a planned (or even unplanned!) strategy

Kickball: See Pulling/Doing an eHunt

No Lunch: Started as a phone typo by Axxle in BM3, turned into a joke by the mod and players of that game, means no lynch but tends to result in hungry mafia players.

The "Morgrim Defense": In his first game here (M2) Morgrim self hammered, since then he has raised his meta as someone who is always just a bit crazy and always seems super scummy. The Morgrim defense is that crazy Morgrim is town Morgrim. This forum has not yet seen scum Morgrim*.

Pulling an Insomniac: Depending on context either, having the right lynch and talking yourself out of it and into a town lynch, or as an IC voting for someone you think as town in an attempt to catch the hammer...in a game where mafia have day chat.
