Still, does it help you sort Kneye?

No, because too many times I've seen both alignments make bad arguments to mass claim. Spoiler alert they're all fucking terrible.

I think mass claim is fine given how few guns we have and how many roses there are. Just don't claim night.

Its really fine. 3 ICs is good.

Okay I'll break it down for you:-

Only one of these four of these things can happen,

1. Scum claim to have no guns.... Result - we get 3 ICs, aka increased chance to lynch scum, 3/11 instead of 3/14 + vigs don't shoot each other and have a higher chance of shooting scum, 3/10, if we lynch town day 1 and 2/10 if we lynch scum day 1.

2. One of the scum claims to have a gun.... Result - we get a lynchpool of 4, 25% chance to hit scum, vigs shoot within this pool. Guaranteed to lynch scum by day 2/3.

3. 2 scums claim to have a gun.....Result- we get a lynchpool of 5, 40% chance to hit scum, vigs shoot within this pool to reduce the pool further. Guaranteed to lynch scum by day 2/3.

4. All 3 scums claim to have a gun. Result - we get a lynchpool of 6, 50% chance to hit scum, vigs shoot within this pool to reduce the pool further. Guaranteed to lynch scum by day 2/3.

btw mathematically this is scums best bet if we did a mass claim. So almost assuredly this is the end result.

This still improves towns chances though since they have to sacrifice one of their own to get slaughtered. But it still increases town win chances.

except we dont know how many guns scum have!
what if they all claim rose, and manage to NK all three guns in night 1?

they aren't all picking N1 gun.
ive plyed this setup like twice.

even in that situation they need to kill roses for their win con.

So you're saying that in pre game chat, mafia decided that all three of them are gonna choose a night one gun, given the fact that many townies will probably choose a night 1 rose?

That's not a town mindset, it's scum trying to scare town.

They do also get a factional kill, but good point.

i don't think they can multitask and shoot 4 players in a night.

Why can no one spell my name right? It's not that complicated :(
p-edit: They'd only need to kill 3, wouldn't they?
