Jim: Let's say you are the doctor; someone claimed the cop in Day 2 but the his/her attitude seemed very scummy compared to everyone else (no lurkers, all active). Would you protect him that day from a NK?
Yes.
If he ends up getting targeted and I protect him, then I confirm him as town, as that means the scum believed his claim. If he doesn't end up getting targeted, then I can't really draw too many conclusions about that. It means he's either fakeclaiming, or he's telling the truth and the scum believed his claim, but decided to target someone else.
The risk of protecting scum is worth it to confirm the Cop, because there's nothing significant lost if the scum end up targeting somebody else.
The fact that he was requesting information about my actual strategy, rather than giving me a hypothetical situation seemed a bit too much like role-fishing and thus a little suspicious, obviously not enough to warrant an actual vote but enough to warrant a FOS.
So what?
It's not like a member of the town's plan of action is a holy secret he can't reveal, and it's not like the scum knowing what the town is doing is going to protect them from that.
E.G., in most of my games, everybody has a pretty good idea of what I'm going to do. This doesn't mean they're not scared of me, as I get nightkilled all the time.
My apologies phantom, I misread something. I'm such a spaz. Anyway, I think you're being a bit gung-ho with the "it seems scummy" while accusing me of attacking you on false premises (Which, admittedly was mostly true). However, personally I think it's more you being new to this than actual scummy-ness, so for the moment, you're off my radar.
So why did you attack him on false premises?
And why did you admit it?
