So I figured someone would say this.
Basically, this is a way of picking two scum. This will only really work if we pick people who are active, but here's my logic:
If the person we nominate is actually scum, then they will be more likely to believe that I am actually ss because they have enough information about who is scum. So if the person we nominate
doesn't
vote for me, it looks bad for them.
If the person that we nominate doesn't believe that I'm a ss, then they won't mind voting for me anyway. Two die, including myself, but we get a lot of information.
If the person who we nominate is actually town and they die with me (which is the worst case scenario) we just have harder reads on current scum cases. If a town nomination does believe I am ss, then they won't want to vote me but will likely want me dead in order to make the best use of my lynch. So they will want to vote for me anyway.
Either way, if everyone votes me, then an extra person dies and it is a part of RVS, regardless of whether the nomination follows through.
