Won't claim under any circumstance in this game. Neither should anyone else just because its L-1. Hammer isn't necessarily death, so L-1 doesn't take on the same connotation.
Willing to hammer/vote over this post and past suspicious. They say they've caught up, or have had time to, yet don't present any information. They say that they'll vote me, somebody who they read null, simply to prevent themselves from being voted. Now, if me or him being voted was a sure thing, I could see if, after all, as a townie, you're the only person who you know is town, however, since neither of us is something a majority seems to want, to not go after those you find scum I find to be scummy.
On claiming, hammer isn't necessarily death, but it does mean 50% chance of death. If you claim, it means 0% chance of death via lynch, and only 50/25% chance of dying via kill. Meanwhile, because you claim, the lynch can be directed at a player who is likely to be scum instead of possibly being wasted on you. So, by not claiming, you have equal chance of death at best, greater chance if there's a Doc, and if you get the bad luck of dying, then you waste the village's kill and possibly allow a mafia to live. In short, not claiming is by far the more harmful option.
