On Baezu's mason-claim case I can say that I've never encountered a player claiming this early without being prompted. It was out of the blue and the reason was that her alleged mason partner (purpkin) told her to do so. So Baezu did they ever give you a reason on why you should claim if they'd died? And why so specific? Was purpkin going to claim had you died instead of them?

I have never played in a game with a partner so I didn't know what the protocol was. I also don't feel comfortable claiming so early in a game but like I said, it's my birthday today and I feel like it can only help town to have more information. So you're welcome scum - I'm conftown!
On the above statements, you claimed that you had never played a game with a partner, so you have never played as the mafioso? But you have and you'd told us that earlier. Wouldn't it be quite a similar experience as if you're playing like masons? This statement conveys the notion that you're trying to justify your actions on your noobness aka inexperience.
Then next sentence you're clearly making a contradiction; you don't really want to claim but you know what, it's your birthday, so YOLO right? This actions defies logical sense even to yourself.
And finally your ending statement; it sounded like you're addressing the mafioso. As if they were the ones who put you in this situation and made you claim. But actually you were really not in any real danger at all, this claim actually seems like a pre-emptive strike to ward off any lynches against you. Baezu you said you wanted to give the town more information but all you did is present us with confusion. Like everyone said this is an indisputable claim and we can't do much with it. It doesn't confirm you're town at all.
The main point I'm baffled with is that you gave off the notion that you'd never actually thought of the consequences of you actions in claiming; like what would the town reaction be or how would this help town find scum?. You just wanted to get it out there, here's my claim, thank you very much, you're welcome.
I want to hear a response from you. Also one more point:
This is quite clever, did you thought it up yourself?
