I don't get your defeatist stance. There might be a medic, disformation might be the roleblocker.

Also couple that with the fact a dumb cop might CC Xat instinctively and I'm left with a pretty optimal fake claim play by someone who was already going to die. Why not go 1-1 with confirmed town/cop if you can?

Exactly. That is also why Xatalos will have to put in effort to avoid being lynched. He should at least earn that cc if he is mafia. We should not give it to him as a present.

While xatalos / disfo is like a 50/50.

I rather go for the safer option.

Lynching outside the 2 is 100 % the wrong play. Yes, it is sad that the day will be a little less productive but if you do not resolve this issue now then you are only postponing it.
Personally I have to say that this development is really convenient. I apparently caught a cold and it is annoyingly hard to concentrate on this (still not caught up). So everything that makes this day easier or gives me an excuse not to care that much is very welcome.

how is the correct play in claim situation to lynch the unclaimed guy

The correct play is to evaluate who the scummier one is instead of blindly lynching the check.

I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna go for a 50/50 when I know that SL is very likely scum and is gonna be a problem.
Hes almost certainly the scum leader, instructing them on what to do.
Just look how he setup the wagon on annul last cycle.

If we take out the scum leader, the rest are easy pickings.

If Mr. Sicklucker is the scum leader then I am not very concerned. No offense.

The correct play is to evaluate who the scummier one is instead of blindly lynching the check.

1. Mafia is a guessing game.
2. Mislynches happen super often
3. The moment a claim happens, it's the last way for the lynchee to avert his lynch

So
a) lynch cop
b) lynch check, most likely lose a vt, real cop survives


not sure how "lynch cop" is the better option here

Where is the difference between losing a VT and an outed cop?

An outed cop can be protected at night, is a confirmed town and an enforced mafia target.

A vt is a vt.

Think about it with a little more effort. If we lynch Xatalos and he is mafia then disfo is also basically confirmed town, can be protected and is an enforced mafia target.
As long as scum has a roleblocker (which is very likely) there is 0 difference.

One day I'll understand why "lynch the cop" is better than "lynch the red-check"

It isn't. But you need to consider the circumstances and this claim is incredibly fishy.

Why would mafia claim when there are like 5 votes on him? now it's more due to the claim and apparently everybody's fine with it.

if everybody's fine with something, it's probably scum.

Seriously?
Maybe because if we do what you say we lynch a townie, mafia survives a day and in the best case the real cop gets outed on top of it. Seems like a very good trade off compared to just going down without all of that.
In cases like this there is often an uncontested wagon on mafia.

Why do I have to explain basics like this...

Scum has a role blocker? Slip?

Agreed. The guy is really all over the place.

Wait.

"If we do what you say we lynch a townie." - TMI.
"Mafia survives a day."

And how is it the best case if the real cop gets outed for town?

This sentence only makes sense from mafia perspective.

Jesus christ...

You ask "why would mafia claim" and I show you why mafia would claim. And then you act all confused. Why am I even bothering with this?

That's a lie. You're not answering my "Why would mafia claim when there are like 5 votes on him?" question. You are clearly saying "if we do what you say".

That is exactly what I am answering and the second sentence of your post does not contradict this in any way.

yep.


So now you're voting outside of the cop/red check that you just told us to lynch

Yeah but I found scum :>



You already had scum between Disfo/Xata and Chez's phrasing for "Mafia might very well have a RB" is a garbage reason to say you found scum and vote outside of it.

I am not using Chez's phrasing. You should actually try to read why I scumread Chez here.

Maybe you should read my post again and try to understand it this time.

If you don't believe the claim how can you believe the red check? That's entirely like "I know your lying. But I believe you"

No. It's like "I think you're lying, but as long as there's a chance you're not, I'm not lynching you over the red-check you claimed".

Then fakeclaiming scum can never lose against you. I will make sure to remember this should I ever roll mafia against you.

I already showed you why there is no difference between the potential VT loss and the potential COP loss.

I'm pretty sure that oversimplifying my words will make you right.

situation: xata no pressure claims red check
OHHHH EVERY LYNCH XATA

ah who am I to care about this.

Ok, at this point I will have to assume you are just trolling. Holy shit.
