Scum was at L-1, claimed mod would confirm him as IC the next day. Simplest example of a role claim being self-resolving
But the mechanics of the game meant that town would have been better off just lynching the guy they thought was scum
Let's try something new and just lynch scum
Why were you so quick to want to lynch him through his claim on day one, given that you were in Starcraft 2? Remember that in that game there were two town-aligned one-shot BP's -- Michael Scott (Auro and I) and Tibor & Lumia (Gamma Emerald and Brassherald)/Firebinger both had that role (see:
Starcraft 2 Mod Thread). That game was 11 town vs 3 scum, and there are at least 11 townies in this game, so it's very likely that there is at least one town-aligned BP role in this game.

That’s a weak argument for why he wouldn’t do it as scum.

Yeah but the 2 flavors thing actually makes me think recruitable traitor now.

Does someone like that fit in the starcraft lore?

Is shadow Duran? I guess that still fits with Zerg being the scum faction.

I'm learning a lot of starcraft from this game lol thanks Volxen.

I have a sinking feeling Krazy is messing with us (like he always does) and -maybe- this time scum/town are a mix of all things put together. I mean, this would be a really GOOD wasy of confusing us and giving us "false gulties", so to speak.

Possibly yeah, flavor-gaming probably isn't the best.
Also looking through Starcraft 1, there was also a bulletproof but it was 1-shot bulletproof godfather. I don't think Volxens argument holds weight, it's not alignment tied and there doesn't have to be a town bp.

But, on the other side of that coin A50. Those that have dropped role hints have all pointed to Protoss as the town faction, I don't think that's insignificant.

I don't presume Krazy to be so predictable. There doesn't have to be a town bp this game. I certainly wouldn't say that it is very likely that there is one. Perhaps it makes it more likely for there
not
to be one. Why don't you walk me through your process for doing meta analysis on the mod?

Why the town read on volxen?

Yes. Also yes to anything else possibly fitting into starcraft lore. There are a million character storylines with every trope twist in existence.

If I could make a suggestion it would be to shoot icon and shadow simultaneously.

because you think i'm scum?

I think it would be a good lynch, yes. And I'm surprised pressure on shadow is status quo after his claim.
Though it's too soon to lynch him now, I want more interaction around his claim first.
Piggybacking. brrrrrr. Vedith are you scum this game?
In post 630, Vedith wrote: In post 623, Iconeum wrote:*i suppose a survivor would make sense to get BP, but same goes for a SK*
either way, both options point towards lynching over dedicating town power
That's the kind of thinking that never gets a D1 scum lynch.
Explain this to me? Because either i'm missing the point you are trying to make, or you misinterpret me.

It took me until LyLo to start obvtowning
(though I did inherit a really scummy predecessor)
I took a look at this game, and I think what you’re saying is true.
Do you generally not like playing early game or something?

why vote hydra tbd over shiro or the other hydra?

This doesn't make sense. Why are you asking him about town read on volxen instead of his townread on HYDRA TBD (the one you are voting)?
I'd think you would be more interested in that, since you are voting there yourself.
Feels fabricated and forced.
