A sock is when you create a whole new account and pretend you aren't "you" til you get outed of course.
Or post with the wrong avatar ( snicker at Ed)

And with the influx of "new blood" - they could all be socks!

Actually, I come from the DoperBoards as well (ToeJam), so I'm just as familiar with that culture, and I don't feel entitled to have a sock just because I've been away.
I will disagree with socking as "Pro-scum". Really socks shouldn't matter. I try to play every Mafia game with a different style or variation, but i know i certainly have certain mannerisms/tells. That said, if you can't figure out if a player is scummy w/o knowing their actual name- well that's a strike against you- as Mafia should be a game of actions not biases. Everyone gets a clean slate at the start of every game, and it's up to what happens IN GAME to figure out who's scum and who's not, not the MetaGaming of "oh, this person is usually more active as scum or less active as scum"- that's just scummy/silly reasoning to me and one of the weakest arguments to make. As town, it'll always raise my eyebrow.

Meanwhile, let's get this party started! This game is going to be bloody, I think
