Things may have gone very differently if IDP or Space had claimed?
I think so.
Great act by DatSwan. I had basically decided he was town.
He was the one I was most sure was scummy, because his role was too swingy with an option of picking an every-other-night kill that might fall to either team, and also just far too strong. The only reason I didn't go all-out after him was a concern that he might be trying to draw the NK if his role was a scum-poison one like mine.. which seemed more likely because of his early comment about role timings.
The other thing that threw me off was the fact that you and Iguana had a plausible way of making a protection racket.. I really hadn't expected faust to make something like that possible. It was especially interesting in a setup where I felt like town had a strong incentive to lie about their roles.
Would me claiming have done town any good? The main utility of my role was that if scum took me out, they'd die, and as soon as they know I'm doomed town, there's no incentive for them to do that.
