Esp when there’s a bunch of neighborhoods on the table already narrowing down the pool and putting themselves in a worse position.

Why is it bad? Roles not revealed upon death, so like, yeah? Seems a decent enough claim?

I mean Masons and 4(?) neighbourhoods is pretty wild. Also, you say 'already explained' like 40 pages were not added to this thread while I was working

You were here when I was talking about how claiming masons takes control away from Roden scum and puts it in town hands to deliberate on it for, as mentioned, “40 pages”

I need to reISO Dunn agan but people are sr for saying mason claim is fake, correct?

But if Dunn is scum doing that, than he gets elimmed the next day if Roden is town, so wouldn’t that be a hella stupid for scum!Dunn to do?

I’ll take another look at Dunn but currently my vote is spiritually on Bad Bird.

We can easily force Rosen to out their partner now putting them in a shitload of trouble instantly unless they claim it with a buddy which isn’t sustainable.

Already explained that a Mason claim is bad for scum to make here. It’s unlikely to be false.
Dunnstral is probably better than this.

Titus is accusing you of shade but I obviously disagree with that. I think she doesn’t understand why you’re saying this.

You have a point. There are explanations I can come up with but they’re basically:
“Dunnstral made an error by reflexively doubting the claim” Dunnstral dug in.
Dunnstral thinks they can talk their way out of it. Dunnstral thinks they can out the partner and gain an advantage for the team and survive the weather etc.
it’s difficult for me to know. But I don’t think Scum gives control by claiming masons. There are holes, but there are a lot of assumptions about competence. Dunnstral already argued that they have little faith in this town, so that this is the actual reason they’re trying to get Rosen to out their buddy.

Mmm. *thinks*
I get that people are feeling…annoyed that I just see it differently and think I’m informed. But as mentioned, I’m largely bullshiting to see if anything falls out. Not a great thing to admit, honestly but that’s the truth of it.

You’ve been playing mafia for years if you haven’t figured out how to manage the pace of a game by now by selectively reading or if you honestly feel the need to read every page of the game, you’re doing it wrong.
