Good game all (especially skum).
Thanks for the game Snow!
I had trouble getting into this one, and once I did I just felt like I could not pick up any traction.
Faust - Totally understand your frustration. I made a call; I either was gonna claim VT or I was gonna claim some PR. I found myself fairly certain of a potential at least skum base (guessed it to 100% in my QT the day I died
). You hammering threw a wrench in the thought process. I would of assumed most Town would of forced results later in the game to either let me hang myself, or at least gain info. In fairness - it was not a long planned out thing - and you did have a point that I made the role a little too convenient. If I were to do it again I would of just claimed a more vanilla type of cop.
At the time of the claim, I had two skum reads I was pretty set on [Ari, Uncle], and one that I was in that weird spot of either "strong Town!PR" or Skum [Silver].
Ari was on me.
Uncle and Silver were on Ari.
My idea was that since i was not strong on the reads after the wagons laid out in the end of day, but also I could not be the only person with that suspicion pool, that by claiming 2 things could happen:
1) Ari gets lynched - which I was really really really confident on being a skum flip. Even if not, info gathered, and better them than me.
2) Since all my skum reads were on Ari (also an SR)... if there was a jump I assumed it would be from skum attempting to prevent the obvious next option of Ari from happening.
- I did not think Town would snap hammer (thus my flip in read on you).
In the end, I am sorry if my play made things harder on Town... But my deciding factor on why to do it the way I did was that I thought the lynch on me would occur for sure vs second wagon if I claimed VT, whereas I thought there was a chance of either me not being lynched (and lynching skum) could happen if I fake claimed... combined with the other possibility of me still being lynched but the info being much more valuable.
That was all predicated on Town not quick hammering... so I guess shame on me for not thinking it through enough.
Any which way - great game to all. Was fun as always!
