I mean.
Yes.
But usually the claims are made deliberately and meticulously and thoroughly planned out in advance.
You can
usually
trust sporadic-in-the-heat-of-the-moment early claims to be true because that sort of whimsy isn't something I plan out. I just...get the idea that it's the right thing to do, so I do it, consequences be damned.
If I'm not explicitly claiming it from pretty much my first post, then it's probably not actually fake.

Yeah the problem with that is multiple-fold.
1: Vengekills are a shot at hitting scum. By deliberately aiming at town, you're deliberately avoiding playing to your wincon.
2: Vengekills resolve before the night phase. Guess what happens once one mason is vengekilled? You go into night. Guess what the mafia have? A nightkill. End result? Both masons dead before the end of the night. Don't fucking think this game wouldn't have a fucking strongman, because Krazy absolutely gives scum a role like that every single game, pretty much.
3: The mason claim is self-resolving. Scum literally
can't
let us live forever, so what will they do?
Oh yeah.
On their fucking own.
Without a vengekill.
Kill us.
Panzer's not a fucking moron.
He knows all of these.
So he fucking knows better than this.
Ergo.
His threat to vengekill a mason?
Empty at best, gamethrowing at worst. Unless of course he were a scum vengeful, in which case absolutely yeah vengekilling us is the correct play.
It's about as blatant a scumclaim as you can get.
Give me 2 nights. If the power of Dark Cookies cannot resolve it, then we react.

Elsa is already voting me iirc.
Alchemist is actual scum though. Worst vote on my wagon. TTTT can wait.
I liked it until she revealed us and made me ready to get shot soon again.

On the one hand.
I wouldn't expect Alchemist to be this lackluster as town.
On the other hand.
I also wouldn't expect Alchemist to be this terrible as scum?
I've SEEN him be scum; he did much much better than THIS. (No seriously, check his scumgame. It's not this terrible.)
I've also seen him as town, and he also did much much more than this. (Basically any towngame. Not this lackluster.)
So.
Alch's ambivalent, for what it's worth. I don't know what to make of him here because regardless of his alignment I'd expect something better than what I'm seeing.
Because it was a push that was win-win regardless.
I don't claim, Cheeky gets away with pushing me and has an excuse to not push anyone else.
I do claim, then my claim's out in the open and exposed.
CheekyTeeky had every reason to push me as scum and no reason NOT to.
Also.
CheekyTeeky might not have even seen a way to back out as scum.
As town who picked up on my hints, CheekyTeeky would immediately have a way to get out of it; as scum who picked up on my hints, CheekyTeeky likely wouldn't know how she should respond.
Also.
The way CheekyTeeky did respond once the claim was out was a scum reaction, so.

You should be pro at dodging bullets by now. Unfortunately with Mastina's bad push you're likely to be shot at first though :/

As a vig.
Would you fucking vig an innocent child because you thought their play was garbage?
Fuck no, you'd be fucking banned for gamethrowing for that.
This is literally no fucking different than that, and yet it's Panzer's logic for justifying his threat.
Because it was a push that was win-win regardless.
