This seems scumsided

One of the best cases for town is if there are 5 special claims, then both scum have to be in there. It's still plausible for scum to win that, they just need the 3 town lynched before both scum. In the worst case though, the claim split is 6/3 or 7/2 andirons basically becomes 7:2 mountainous.

Not sure how neighborizer could be used as a soft cop...

An interesting twist you could add is a 1-shot special/non-special cop for all special snowflakes, with scum always returning special. That would give scum more motivation to claim special. But it would probably make the game way too random.

Could also be interesting to give scum special/non-special cops.

Eh

Private threads can help with finding scum, but nothing that's not possible by just questioning them in the public thread. Private threads are best for cooperation between mutual townreads imo.

It might be interesting if you made the setup 9/2 and gave scum 1-shot special/non-special cops.

But updating the probabilities is a good idea and would help a little with balance
