I think this is how it works:
Step 1: Take all the first numbers that only got picked once and order them, that's the top of your list
Step 2: Group all of the numbers chosen by more than one person and order them by the first number.
Step 3: Within those groupings, order them via the second number, if there's double doubles, they go at the back of their group.
Done.
The 9s are last because it's the highest number chosen by more than 1 person. You're missing the word 'else' from your question.
Eight was picked by noone at all. Only 1 person picked 2,10,11,12,13, therefore noone ELSE picked it other than them.
Having said that, if I'm right, the example draft is wrong-

Why would you need them to claim immediately? It merely narrows down the numbers of people with pro-town roles for scum to kill.
The only reason to use it is as scum, so we know that if it gets used, scum has it. I would think it would be more imperative for a townie that went for it and DIDN'T get it to claim straight away. That way we know that if it happens, there's scum above them somewhere on the list. Also, they're a VT so less likely to draw scum-fire, and if they do, it's guaranteed not to be on a PR.
Later, if we were thinking about directing kills, it might be nice to know if scum could screw with us with it, but I don't see how we need to know early D1?-

I agree, and having a mason partner with prior knowledge of who you're going to 'confirm' is fantastic. Means the scum can't WIFOM your kill, and if you hit scum, while dying, your partner at least basically gets a scum cop result.
It takes a tricky role that without announcing to the entire game who they're going to test can't really find scum, to a very, very strong role in a mason group.
Was just pointing out that the addition of a safe 'protect' could come in useful as well.-

My theory eliminates them from my list.
Basically, these people don't double with people, and have low second numbers.
Knowing that low second numbers are almost always a good thing isn't generally realised I feel. And I think that scum, with 5 peoples pooled knowledge, would be more likely to realise this and put low numbers for second numbers.
