I see there has been discussion about my claim. I can walk you through my thought process if you like.
So I assume the mason claim is truthful. I.e. we have 3 Ms. There may be other roles. If there are, then scum has a full strongman. It may be worth the gambit for them to keep the masons alive to shoot for more dangerous PRs. Now they either have to leave 3 potential ICs alive or give us a potential investigative result.
Second, should the Mason claim be a lie, my claim may in the end help us to figure that out, because 3 Ms is a lot to put into the equation.
Third, I knew the claim wasn't completely safe, so dropping it at a later point might lead people to assume it was fake and lynch me anyway. I thought getting it out earlier would leave me enough time to explain why it's not a fake claim and also make it clear I was not just trying to safe myself for another day.
So I was on the fence about claiming with all that already. Then ash and yuma started pushing my wagon, and I thought PPS was on it too. That was pretty much to go against. I thought I might not get out of this anyway without claiming, and decided to save the time.
