If the mayor shows himself tho, and maf don't nightkill him, that also increases the probability of the doctor role saving some1 who would be nightkilled, it's still unlikely tho, and I agree the Mayor shouldn't out themselves as the multiple votes power is practically useless as most likely cases will result in almost everyone voting for some1, making the extra 2 votes practically useless; whereas, as previously stated, if they stay anonymous, that decreases the chances of maf getting a lucky nightkill on a civ.

things we know today
1. obviously the cop dude found an inno today and that's why they haven't claimed
2. cop dude should say so tomorrow if they found a maf or the nurse cause the quack dude shows as a nurse
3. mayor should claim but probably won't
4. if the mayor isn't claiming today then we may as well lynch someone already as no one else would benefit the town by claiming
4a. unless the paper boy saw who killed samlen

because if they found a maf they would have fucking said so, ya dingus
Between this, you wanting the mayor to claim right now and calling the paper boy useless, I don't think you've read this setup properly. Please go to http://escaperestart.com/forum/threads/lets-not-explode-sign-up.19407/

And there you will find the words "Maven - Visits one player per night, and receives that player's role the following night. Immune to blocks. (i.e. Drunk)"

I think it'd be kind of hard for the Maven to find a Mafia if they haven't even gotten their result back.

well you'd be right, I didn't see the fine print for this shit
mayor gets to doublevote daily though and that kinda gives his role away
paper boy isn't totally useless i guess? i just don't really understand the role's function and picture them as pretty much guaranteed to die some way or another

i want to have an inno confirmed and mayor carries the least risk of all claims, ok?
also ltin if the maven cop dude finds a maf they'd damn well better say so and also could you kindly stop quoting the op
you don't seem to understand the meaning of "excessive." the massclaim idea notty and i came up with independently would have worked if it weren't for gadget's interference. the claiming thing is first and foremost a warning not to massclaim early and get the surgeon bombed. it's okay for some people to claim if it benefits the town.

lmao no if i was a cop, even if i had one result, inno or scum, i wouldn't claim, maybe softclaim and point my suspicions when the opportunity presented itself, but claiming and putting a target on my back with just one result is not worth it

or at least that's what i would do if i was the maven

i want to have an inno confirmed
why tho
why's that in particular so important right now, we'd still have 14 players that aren't confirmed anything so the benefits aren't that big

like i'm not even contesting the pros nor do i think the cons are that massive either but i just don't see the importance

there's only 3 roles that show as scum this game: gadget, paparazzi, and ringleader
if maven finds the gadget they fucking say so no matter what day it is, that's crucial
ringleader? lynching them absolutely kills maf's night discussion so they can't plan for the next day at all.
pap? if they found the pap n1, that's the only situation where it might be beneficial to stay quiet. they should still out them after they have a second investigation, though. personally i'd out the maf as soon as i got a guilty.

ex·ces·sive
ikˈsesiv/
adjective
more than is necessary, normal, or desirable; immoderate.
The claiming this is about the surgeon?
No it isn't. It's about the civilians and the EXTREME importance that mafia not know who they are. And yes, I know we have a doctor with 2 saves right now, but we may not later. (I'm getting off track one sec).

Claiming is fine by me, but I don't think we should do so this early. The mayor may minimally important as far as necessary to keep alive, but every claim rules out someone else as a civilian, and because the mafia wouldn't need to target the mayor, they probably wouldn't. That lowers the pool of civilians. Remember, 36% of the roles not know by mafia are civilians, and with a town death it rises to 40%.

there, we have it, the kid used stats
look while i would love to have a confirmed inno, it's really not all that important they claim today.
you have shown yourself, once again, to try too damn hard to appear townsided. seriously, who gives a shit if the mayor does or doesn't claim? your reaction implies it'd ruin the town's chance of winning when in fact it's a minimal concession to benefits already listed

the fact that you're heavily against a minor risk is yet more proof you're a faker trying too much to appear "helping the town"

why tho
