That was the dumbest night kill and seeing NSG try to take advantage of it right away speaks volumes.
People who were in RCs poe don't just kill RC to conf his said poe.(At least I wouldn't and I don't think people are dumb enough to do that) So it came from people not in said poe or enough scum outside it
Let's consider the last line here (I have things to say in response to the rest of the post, but I'll leave them for later).
I don't think what you're saying makes sense. Let's consider that scum are in RC's PoE. What's the best way to stop that from being pushed and silence someone who would push that PoE? Obviously it would be to kill the person who has it – the effects of someone being alive to actually push and talk about something are
far, far
more dangerous to scum than simply killing someone to "confirm" their PoE.
I think this is common sense and nearly indisputable: in basic mafia games like mountainous, a
lot
of scum's power comes from being able to silence the good townies or the people they don't want speaking. Far, far less people are inclined to consider a dead townie's reads than they are to consider the reads of someone alive and actively pushing something.
I mean, let's even consider the start of this day already: it's possible I'm overlooking something, but as far as I can remember I am the only person to independently bring up his reads, and any other discussion about it has simply been responding to me (don't mean to come off as arrogant or anything here or say i'm somehow better, just trying to prove a point). In fact, a lot of people have come in with reads that run directly
counter
to what RC's reads were – in practice, what you're saying has pretty much already been proven wrong.
