[M][N] Medic Mafia

Well posting stuff like the dog .gif was before he would have received a role PM. He may have become...less excited after that, if he's on the scum team. Especially seeing that prplhz seemed headed for a medic overdose (a decision Alakaslam played no role in, btw). And if the Alakaslam slot had been on the team, that could help explain why prpl never came back to put up any fight. Alakaslam would still need to feign the excitement for a few posts after he arrives (and did) but then...yeah, 22 hours later, still nothing further. I don't *think* we're dealing with an Alakaslam/Kelsier/prpl scum team? But if that's what it was, you sure can't blame prpl for folding up the tent and going home. lol I guess you could say the same thing if you swap out one of those names with Damdred's, but that wasn't my original inclination.

Anyway, looks like we have 2 in favor of the mass claim, and 0 against, so far. I'm not against it either. If anyone IS, I'll hear what they have to say, but I gave it some thought, and it seems fine to me. Like you mentioned, if we assume there's a counterclaim, the mass claim still keeps the scum from narrowing that group (and revealing the faker) by shooting medics. Which means we can keep performing overdose kills at Night.

Yeah, if you're coordinating a medic kill on any given night, I think all the medics have to use the same target. This not only renders the Mafia medic useless, but it also renders the Mafia roleblocker useless. They basically just have 3 vanilla bad guys.

Coordinating things so that 2 medics kill a guy and one tries to prevent the mafia kill not only opens you up to disruption by the roleblocker, but I also don't see a way to get the medics on the same page (about which 2 are killing a guy and which 1 is trying to make a save) without telling the Mafia who they are. So you can't do anything but "all 3 on the same target" unless you execute a mass claim. Having never played under this set of rules (or one like it) I don't know if the mass claim is good or bad. I'll have to read the pre-game discussion again.

One thing I DO remember from pre-game discussion is the idea that this ruleset favors us pretty heavily, and that the Mafia will have to play extremely well to win. Is there a "far and away" best Scum player that we can lynch, to make sure that won't happen? :D
