Isn't it usually assumed that everyone claims to be town? (other than mutley of course) Are you sure that you're not a scum who's panicking at being in a game with such obviously skilled scumhunters?
I didn't say that everyone will believe me, I said everyone should. And everyone should claim to be town, yes. But personally I believe doing so (unprompted) has some benefits, it accustoms and suggests the idea to other players directly and why would scum bother claiming town since everyone will anyways, thus I think it's persuasive as a basic truth. And I'm extremely 100% confident that I am not panicked nor scum and thus am certainly not panicked scum.
Does that mean that I should claim town right now, as should all the other town players? And yeah, I know that we should all listen to you if you are in fact town, since you would be the most experienced town player here. However, what if you were scum and you were lying? We would all be following you to our defeat (your victory).
