I disagree. I think there are times in which one should claim when they are at L2/1 even before someone declares intent. I'll expand on that later.In post 147, Creature wrote:In post 21, Creature wrote:When to claim
Sometimes claiming might not be ideal. If you're a PR, you'll most likely be nightkilled/roleblocked (if there's one) next night. If you're a VT, you'll help scum narrow down the list of PRs.
There are some situations where you should claim:
- When you're at L-1
and someone declares intent.
- When you got an incriminating result (or you feel you got).
- When you feel there's no reason to not claim anymore.
- When town agrees on a massclaim.

Thinkbig if you're actually town and just happened to check the thread via phone 10 minutes after I voted and overreacted based on an l-2 because you were on mobile and couldn't read and claimed because you didnt have time to respond because you weren't home yet and you also have your own personal theory that people should claim at l-2 without intent I've never heard about, I think I hate both you and my luck.-

In my games, I tend to overreact to pressure and votes. Especially when I am at L-2 with 14 days left in the DP.In post 156, Raskolnikov wrote:Thinkbig if you're actually town and just happened to check the thread via phone 10 minutes after I voted and overreacted based on an l-2 because you were on mobile and couldn't read and claimed because you didnt have time to respond because you weren't home yet and you also have your own personal theory that people should claim at l-2 without intent I've never heard about, I think I hate both you and my luck.I have officially retired this account.

Thinkbig's statement makes me think I should meta him but I really can't be bothered atm, I hate meta diving especially d1.In post 162, GAYreenHamster wrote:how so rask?
You were going to put him l-1 without any reason or a scumread apparently, and one of my other townreads I'm not so sure on either.
Still need those two others to say something too-

you can't prove or disprove anything in a mafia game really gayreen
there's nothing wrong with having your own reads even if they go against the grain you know.... like it's fine you agree with our points but i feel like you're being a little too sheepy
like normally i'd be scumreading you for that but A: I kind of know your play as scum and it doesn't feel like it here, and B: your pointing out the soft was just really derptown
