day 3) Vette, about to be lynched claims he investigated Trucks (whom the mafia thinks is the doc): Trucks is scum, I investigated prof night one and trucks night 2, prof was innocent, and trucks was guilty, therefore I'm a crazy cop.
See what just happened, doofus? Who is going to counter-claim crazy cop? In fact, last game I pushed ABC to say Trucks was guilty by investigation, only to lead to a series of questions that would in turn point to ABC being crazy. Crazy cop is a very safe scum claim. Furthermore, it's additionally safe because then a scum can go hinting at being a cop, without having any real disadvantage to having the real cop counter. In this way, they can both goad people who are reading between the lines into mislynched while at the same time testing the water to see if a cop even exists. It wouldn't be the first time that there was no town cop, and scum discovered that leading to a false cop claim which went through perfectly because the same game had a red herring miller. |
I'm not denying that crazy cop is a good claim, just that I helped scum to find a good fake claim. If the scum players have experience, they don't need "my help" to find a good fake claim.
