It's not about proving yourself to the town, but you tried hard to come up with a way to confirm you as town. So which one is it?
Also what exactly about your claim makes it harder for mafia to choose? The choice seems simple. Get rid of the person that can confirm scum (and who already have given 1 scum 1 neutral) or... they can get rid of someone who claims vig and seems very trigger happy, and who will potentially hit (already have) town. I know what I'd do if I was scum.
What mastermind? You make a role claim that doesn't hold up to scrutiny, contradict yourself, and providing scenarios for you to act out which will place you in confirmed townie camp, when in reality nothing you've provided can confirm you without the help of someone else.
Re-read edit: That whole paragraph sounds really harsh, but not sure how else to phrase it.
I'm not following this. Exactly what information could he release after a lock that wouldn't be relevant before a lock? He's already revealed Noodle's colors, and Noodle confirmed it. Guess maybe I need this one spelled out for me.
If he found another scum, Noodle being locked or not doesn't matter all that much tbh. Although I want to see Noodle go, I'd rather see your flip today I think. Then we can deal with Noodle and whatever Bipolar confirms tomorrow. Heck we can start the pressure on person x even after the lock.
Unvote: Noodle
