If we wait to massclaim until MYLO then scum can lie about their claims much easier. Before MYLO, scum have to worry about whether their claim exists in the town, because that means an auto-lynch, or have to claim vanilla, which confirms any PRs and explicitly describes the setup. In most games on this site, massclaim

MYLO is standard procedure. However, Newbie games can last as short as 3 days, and this means that pre-MYLO massclaim would have to occur on D2, which is a bit early. SO you only have a choice between too early and too late, and no choice of exactly the right time unless there are two nights with no kill.

It to me seems like a way for mafia to pull a second mis-lynch straight up on day 2.
How was there anything "policy" about Dog's suggestion? It seems like you were just trying to drive people away from an ewo lynch.

That game's scum pms said that pregame chat was alloweded and had got to night 1 in which the quicktopic said "stop talking now" before he had claimed that he didn't know scum could pregame chat.
Basically, I think the whole surprise thing was a forgery.
VOTE: Paschendale
I personally highly doubt it is false, for the simple reason that I think that kind of play is above his level (no offense to Pasch). I think he missed it in both that game, where he was scum, and this one, where he could be. And he missed it in the QT, because he obviously misunderstands what your argument is, and if he had seen it from the mod's post in the QT, he would understand your argument. This misunderstanding of your argument could of course be faked, but as I said above, I think that is above his level. Note: it is entirely possible that he is scum, but if he is, he most likely did not see that he could talk pre-game, and so was hitting himself over the head when the mod stated he could.

The doc/jk can, at most, clear one additional person (the one who was targeted last night). Maybe it could be useful later on (like if the same thing happens again night 2 - not likely), but now would be a bad time for it.
If the same thing happens on N2, then D3 is the PERFECT time for a massclaim. No maybe about it.
In post 340, ewo2 wrote:Also, how are you voting pasch right now if his being scum is contingent on me being scum?
This is a good question to be asking. Especially coming from the player that he should be voting instead.

I did not read his statement in that way. But now that you mention it, I kinda see where you are coming from. Not sold on Herrscum though.

Voting me for suggesting massclaim? Really? Oh, in a later post you state that you still hold scum opinions about me from earlier. I'm pretty sure your case yesterday was completely ripped apart. I believe I was the one to do it.
In post 341, CityElectric wrote:What happened to this logic? You're voting Pasch, instead of ewo, who, by this logic is more likely to be scum than Pasch.
Repeating ewo's comment. Although scum tend to parrot, this is actually an example of a case when scum would usually not do so. Assume City scum and Pasch town for the moment. Assuming ewo scum, City would not comment on this, because that would be encouraging Dog to vote his partner. Assuming ewo town, City would not comment on this because scum-City likes seeing the most protown player to be suspicious of a player that had previously been seen as town. Thus, if City is scum, his partner must be either Pasch, and he is trying to drive the vote away form his partner, or Dog (I find this highly unlikely), and he is reminding his partner that there is an inconsistency. All told, I find this to be a town read on City.
