1For ash to be scum, he'd have to planned the claim from the day start (the breadcrumbs, his play that's consistent with the result), 2he'd have to be exactly a scum rolecop that targeted you day 1 and decided to go after a strong power role, a role that I btw think is unlikely to exist in a game with an IC. 3For you to be scum ash needs to be a tracker (makes sense with an ic) 4that tracked you (his reasons make sense) 5and you to be the mafia goon that made the kill. It basically comes down to this: 6Ash decided to come out, with a claim that makes 100% sense. His play fits his claim 100%, the narrative makes perfect sense. 7You needed to claim something as ash had already caught you, 8I think the unpressured vs pressured thing already makes a big difference in likelihood + all the other factors. 9Really, the only thing that points towards you being town is being upset (that has historically been a town trait here), but you are aware of that so you could have faked that / you could have been scum that got pissed.
Okay lets start with this.
1) Yes he had to plan out his scum fake claim(ANY SCUM PLAYER PLANNING ON FAKE CLAIMING WOULD PLAN IT OUT,ash is the type of player to try this)
2) Two major points here
2A) He does not
have to be a rolecop that targeted me. He could be a random goon, nothing stops him from claiming what he did.
2B) I think he could be a rolecop and that would give him more incentive to plan the fake claim and get me mislynched
3/4/5) A tracker that tracked the scum that took the night kill out of 11 people. This is
necessary for ash to be town, and you though it was unlikely he was a rolecop that targeted me(which doesn't even need to be true)
6) Yes ash chose when to come out and claim
7) Yes I was forced to claim, and remember I did not want to claim originally(My thought's were claiming jk would mean I would be an auto nk which is really bad, I do not know scum knew I was JK) then everyone said they believed ash and not me so I had to claim.
8)This is silly, he gets more credit because he claimed first, I mean you were just in a game where galz claimed and got lots of credit because he claimed first, it was silly then, its silly now.
9) That's sad, you think nothing of the 28 not angry posts I made during the time after the claim, you think nothing of all the rereading work I have done showing interactions with ash/liopoil/xieron. Nothing of my reads in general.
Tell me what ashersky has done other than claim his result/things about the claim, that makes you so confident he is town.
