Yes it's either
1) marv is right or
2) prplhz is right which translates into this:

If i don't have the universal backup i have to trust Oats is town - which can be possibly discredited.
Even if i trust Oats is town i have to tell in thread what i want him to do, which gives scum information what's going to happen in contrary to me saying "i want these people to do these things, trust me i know what i am doing" which makes MY actions unknows - scum can't know what's going on because i am really good in mass roled games because i have played a shitton of them.

Basically there is only scum motivation to deny universal backup from me unless gumshoe thinks i am mafia which he does not say he thinks.

I have been thinking about Oats a little. I wonder if it's worth someone near the bottom of the draft 2nd picking Universal Backup, just in case :x

If scum!Oats does not pick UBU or is not truthful in what roles are not in the game it's worse to mafia than him doing so. Trust me.

well you're probably going to end up VT as last pick anyway, seems a decent one to cover. Dunno.

That's why the plan is so foolproof, there is no benefit for mafia lying about the UBU pick or the roles. Regardless of who picks it, the role is only bad for mafia, or very bad for mafia.

Like if Oats is mafia and has his mafia partner to pick UBU instead mafia gains nothing, they can only lose something if they fuck up. There is literally no way mafia gains anything if Oats does not pick UBU.

Oats if you are town you are around @ the deadline and announce the roles not in the game immediately when you get your PM!!

Marv I think you should choose vet because you being alive is generally a positive thing when you're town.

Why is it a problem to trust Oatsmaster if, as you say, it is in both a town and a scum Oatsmaster's interest not to lie?

No one even knew for sure that Oatsmaster would get Universal Backup.

prplhz are you going to do anything else this game than hard-defend people doing suspicious things? Just curious

Dunno, we'll see.

From my point of view the case against gumshoe just looks like this:

marvellosity's argument: He is trying to piss off a town leader as much as he possibly can, we don't know why though.

raynpelikoneet's argument: He is trying to deny me a role, but denying it to me isn't really going to make that much of a difference.

The answer to this question is so obvious that you wont give it to me?

Or you don't know the answer but you assume that there is one?

There doesn't have to be an answer beyond what is written...

On an objective basis, moving a town leader from spot 2 to spot 12 is simply a good thing.
