Mafia are unlikely to fakeclaim driver when they're really a blade, and vice versa.

This is
already confirmable
if a town driver targets a scum blade fakeclaiming driver. Note that there is no option to select
nobody
when asked to pair up,
you have to pick one of the drivers, or it selects automatically


This is something that already exists in the game without the role claim.

Cabd are you trying to go Guillotina today or Noraa?

I know it's been like an hour, not asking you to commit, just wondering whether I should read through the wall ASAP or whether it can wait a bit

Also thinking about it Guillo probably also isn't scum, unless he was super savvy

@L4pe yeah I looked at my writings on the game after saying I had no solid SRs and saw I had suspected beebs
We're falling through space, you and me, clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go...That's who I am.

Oh by the way, don't hate me cakez, but I am literally none of what I claimed yesterday~

I'm actually just a blade with a semi-useless set of roles.

Town can do better than me but I beat nothing.

Maybe its just me but I feel like cobra has done an insane amount of quick and dirty pocketing. Very unnoticeable and surface level but its there.
SR.

I dislike Flavor, Cobra, and Presidents atm.
The ragequit is basically a scum claim honestly speaking so guillotina is easily on the chopping block for me today.
I'm willing to go a lot of places but obviously not on myself.

You're not wrong, and all 5 would be truly stupid, but given the existence of Driver/Blades and depending on how useful scum pairings are there are plausible incentives for a few to selectively fakeclaim.

It might be because he put in a ton of time to analyze and give thoughtful, perceptive reads that inherently are less likely to come from scum, even if individual players are more opaque. What specifically do you dislike? He's actually come out very aggressive this day between Guillotina and my own slot.

Here's how I think this works, and what Noraa is failing to consider:

If somebody is both a driver and a blade, they can choose which they are at night.
If somebody is acting as a driver that night, they
do not appear as a blade to noraa
. Probably.
If somebody claimed driver but are acting as a blade, their are ways in the setup to find that out without Noraa's claimed role, and it's not a smoking gun

In post 2923, Guillotina wrote:WTF! If you guys think that i am scum because i made the mistake of defending what seemed like an LHF being bullied by a power player then you got it all wrong!!! Im town. I was not a lurker on Day 1, it implies i've been in the game but not engaging which is not true. I signed up to a game that is supposed to last 10 days per day phase which adjusted to my work schedule and free time but it ended in a day!! If i knew i was signing up for a blitz game i wouldn't have sign up at all.

Now it's Saturday night and I already got plans, so if this game does not end in 12 hours, we can talk, but I'm town!! My only sin was feeling empathy for someone I thought was being bullied!!
I won't stop the wagon, but I no longer think this is scum.
