Assuming your claim is genuine, there are two values:

1) Force scum to target what is essentially a non-PR role, thus keeping any "real" PR roles alive;
2) Remove the question surrounding your claim from everyone's minds.

There is of course the third about your claim being a lie, but you refuse to accept this is a genuine consideration for anyone who doesn't have the same information you do!

Blotunga's flailing and absolute refusal to see the larger town picture has me convinced that he has some kind of survival wincon.

Why would PRs be so important at this stage? There is 1 scum left. Are you a PR and we should keep you alive? I don't think so.

There is no survival wincon, but I see no point in lynching one of the two confirmed town. Yes, we only confirmed eachother, but there is just 1 more scum. If there were at least 2 scum I would have no objections to lynch one of us to confirm the other. As it is now, I don't want to sacrifice either of us and see no point in the sacrifice.

I have now words.

Yeah, I think that tops "how do we even know there are any town PRs?" (paraphrased).

Oh no, I don't think we should waste a week, I see no reason not to lynch one of you right now. Do you have a preference by the way? I was leaning towards GR before, but frankly he's the more sane looking one at the moment.

Scum will have to contend with the 2 masons at some point. So what good would it serve to lynch one of us? Just that he can safely NK the other leaving town with no more confirmed town?

Agreed. My preference would have been GameRager, as his posts are usually nonsense, but blotunga seems to have gone nuclear.

Unvote GameRager, vote blotunga/

Put yourself a bit in our skin. I know 100% that GR is town. He knows that I'm 100% town. We also know that there can't be more than 1 scum. Would you, having that information, willingly let yourself lynched?

Put yourself in OUR skin. We do not know if you and GameRager are telling the truth. If SPF came out and claimed cop, would you believe it, or would you want some kind of proof?

I would ask for a proof. But here is the proof: there cannot be two scum left.

Anyway please consider this:

If you lynch me or GR, you will waste a lynch and a town. Tomorrow you'l be back to having suspects between the same 5 as now:
- SPF
- RedFireGaming
- Pooka
- LOLchan
- nmillar

This is why I see no point in lynching us. And for what? To presumedly "protect" a PR. I'm not buying it. We were lucky last week that Lift had to most townish vibe so he was shot.
Even if you lynch me and GR doesn't gets NKed, scum can still target that presumed PR. He knows it's one of the 4 other players that are left (actually one of the 3 players, because Pooka already claimed vanilla). So if Pooka is town, scum will know that he has to pick the PR out of RFG, LOLChan, nmillar and SPF. Well 1 out of 3 from those 4. So maybe the PR will die without revealing anything, you lynch me and while GR will live, there won't be much progress.
With me and GR alive at least we can be sure that at one point scum WILL confirm us no matter what. He HAS to contend with us, he can't leave two masons alive until the end. At that point the other will be confirmed without wasting a lynch.

if pooka is town with L-1 then why didn't scum hammer? unless scum had already voted.

Here is my idea. If we lynch one of the masons and they flip town then we lynch SPF. One of them is scum and this seems to be the best solution. Worst case scenario we end up 4-1. best case we kill the scum in at most 2 nights. As I see it if scum is anyone else were doomed anyway so why not.

So SPF. How much are you willing to bet that the masons are scum?

Scum hammering would've made them a target for today. Scum needs to hide a bit more because there is only 1 scum left. So maybe SPF is not the scum.

How have you gone from this:
