There are multiple possible answers. Despite what you may thing I'm not settled on which.
I think I know what she's claiming and it's dumb.
???? I’m not claiming anything but I will.
I’m a vanilla townie. I do nothing except vote and die. My vote is doing nothing. So I’ll die instead. How do people not get how much information can be gained by lynching me today??? Over half the playerlist has made a firm stance on me one way or the other. Getting a confirmation of my alignment means you can take that data and use it to figure out other people’s alignments. FAR MORE BENEFIT. How is that hard to understand??
Sure, but how about not lynching Jester and ending the game?
I'm joking.

Doctors, plural, but yes. Also keep in mind we have a claimed infection-immune townie who thus cannot be infected; mafia leaving that slot alive means that they always have someone immune to being infected. (Like I said, No Lynch/Voted is half-BP, half-IC. For scum to get rid of the conftown, they need to spend one of their only two factional nightkills on the slot, something I am fine with since it'd mean they only have one left to take care of anti-infection players. )
Honestly, don't do this. It hurts. There are better slots to vote such as:
Spoiler:
The ones I have already listed[/V]
And we can tack on Ari as well.
There is literally no other person on the playerlist who has more firm reads on it or reactions to their posts than I do.

I agree.
So that narrows down the probable lurker-scum pool to 2/3; not bad odds to be honest.
Within {Aristophanes, Creature, Jake}, pretty sure there's that 66% chance to hit scum and with those odds, would be all too happy to join a wagon on any of them.
Probably Ari > Creature

Jake though if I were left with a choice between the three. That being, Aristophanes most suspicious, Creature behind him, Jake loosely at the Creature level but familiarity with Creature makes me want to lynch Creature first.

If you are town then sacrificing yourself seems kinda dumb, no? Chance this is just

I need 7 more votes to make this happen. Quick, put your vote back please. Stop being hardheaded. This is the highest reward option. With 50, that makes 7 votes, only 3 left. Come on people. If you are actually interested in moving this town forward with real info, this is the best way.

ETL, two of the possible answers are town trying to get out of the game quickly and scum trying to AtE themselves out of lynch contention.
There are plenty more, but those are the big ones.
I strongly disagree with martyrdom. We lynch scum if possible.
For the record, while I don't think FL is scum, if he active lurks like this, I'd be okay with a policy lynch on his slot just in case there's the chance he was scum.
(Then again, if FL pulled his normal antics in a game, I'd probably then say I'd be down to policy lynch FL for said antics. )
That said.
Still think Ari/Creature/Jake are by far a better focal point overall.

Indeed.
While I sympathize with being busy, Aristophanes's lack of content here this game is scum-indicative until proven otherwise.

With the way this game is currently going, the high number of lurkers, the high number of non-serious players and the very low ratio of scum to town, scum lynch ain’t happening today. That’s pretty much a given. So if we are going to lynch town anyway we should be going for the highest info lynch we can and you cannot argue that mine doesn’t fit the bill.

Do you have a proactive > reactive bias in how your read people in general?
Nope, never even remotely. Never been something that has ever factored in, ever.
The only thing proactive/reactive has ever meant in a game is in relevance to me, specifically, if I was in a proactive or reactive mindset. It is utterly irrelevant to other players and how I gauge them.
