GymHenson: More like put it on the back burner for a bit. I mean look at how many games where I was town and a distraction, got removed and shown to be town...iirc it was more often than I turned out to be scum.
From mafiascum.net wiki: "Note that by claiming, you are opening yourself up to potentially being policy eliminated at some point during the game."
And that's in standard situation, not when the owner of the role is under heavy scrutiny and lied/ommited information before.
GymHenson: You seemed scummy to me, so of course I was focusing on you in regards to that post. I have listed my leans in other posts as well, though.
Take this as overall tip but this is simply wrong approach. Several players do the same thing but because you consider one of them scummy then his action is bad while it is not for others. In case you were town it would give you false reads. You should judge players based on their actions not judge those actions based on your reads.
GymHenson: Ignoring me and searching for scum elsewhere, maybe, and then coming back to me if need be later on.
If you were mafia and town did this, would you NK the person?
If you were cop, would you dare to investigate such person?
