Really tehpilot, you need me to spell it out for you?
I switch into the game, read through everything, recognize that there's nothing stopping the lynch going through, and ask the soon-to-be deceased a big old list of questions, hoping to get something from him that will give us something to work with. You then say something along the lines of "let's end this" and add an additional vote, with at least some implication that you thought it was a hammer or would shortly be followed up with one, BEFORE he gets a chance to answer. There is 0 situation I can see where this action is pro-town. Even if whatever he has to say is of no interest to you, it COULD be of interest to the rest of the town. You attempting to shut the door on such questioning could easily be interpreted as scum attempting to end the day before we could extract any more information from a soon-to-be known town source, and even in the most charitable light it's a net negative to shut down a discussion like that. So yes, with that for context, if you have an explanation as to why you made that decision, I wouldn't mind hearing it.
I wasn't getting into your completely out of nowhere hint about your role, but since you brought it up, under what circumstances would you think that was a pro-town decision? Mirdini made it very clear that a massclaim would be a bad idea for town, and unless I'm remembering incorrectly, you were under no pressure at the time in any way that should have caused you to drop something like that to try to protect yourself.
For now, I'm quite happy to leave my vote where it is. But if you could throw out your top 3 scumreads and top 3 town reads with a bit of explanation, I'd appreciate it.
But anyway. Granola's answer there was a little enlightening. Quick follow-up questions for granola.
1) If you were 100% sure of the identity or someone who isn't on the scum team but is a killing role, would you want to lynch them right away or continue the focus on hunting the scum team?
2) You seem to have the two biggest scumreads on RobotLaser (your answer to my last question) and Airey (your current vote). Who do you believe is most likely to be coaligned scum with RobotLaser, or with Airey? For the sake of this question, assume they are not coaligned scum.
3) Did the aC and blazer situation yesterday, including blazer's claim and subsequent offer to be lynched and use their power, make you feel better or worse about blazer with regard to your light town read on them?
