Meeko, you are making exactly no sense. A detective should claim if they have enough info to outweigh publicly revealing themselves. Yes finding scum is nice and all but Townfirms are much better, since it limits the number of players scum could be hiding it. WE DON'T KNOW THAT THEY ARE ACTUALLY TOWN DETECTIVES. Try this on for size. Zotti makes a post ::
I am a detective and I investigated Opalcat, Cecil Adams, and Tuba Diva. Opal is Town, Cecil is Town, but Tuba Diva is Scum. Zotti Happens to be Scum. Opal and Cecil happen to be scum as well. Tuba Diva happens to be Town. How can town KNOW to NOT trust Zotti ?I remind you, that Zotti knows his scum mates, and therefore already knows that Tuba Diva is not a scum. Therefore, he calls all non-scum scum, and he clears his scum mates as Town. In this scenario, scummy Zotti would be trading some short-term gains for some very expensive long-term losses after he is found out, I think. After Zotti gets Tuba lynched and Tuba flips town, the jig is up for Zotti and probaby Opal and Cecil too. So I suppose there could be a scenario where that would be worthwhile for scum to orchestrate this, but I can't envison it. Maybe at the very end of the game? But, now my brain is starting to melt, too. There it goes in a little puddle all over the floor. I need to re-read these posts about 12 more times to start to get a grip on all of this.

People are so worried about scum claiming detective that they no longer believe the detective. That has been going on for ages so scum can claim detective and it's all WIFOM. It's been said here, Hal gave up 2 scum just to prove he is Town when actually he is scum. Perhaps it could happen, if I had been one of those scum I would have fought tooth and nail to be alive.
So claiming detective is good for scum only once, maybe twice.
I am comfortable with my Mason claim now, porbably will be NK'd though and if not me, Mahaloth. I would rather I went though 'cos Maha is a better player than me.

It happens, we just need to figure out who the scum are. I don't really have any ideas at this point. Me neither, seeing as you weren't scum. Does Dizzy still look scummy too you? She doesn't to me anymore. Am I the only person that understood Meeko??? I'm not as sure now as I felt before.

I figured I'd throw this in while it's too late for scum to do anything about it toNight (assuming I timed this right, and Night is ending in a minute). Night Three detective result: oldred is a squeeky-clean townie (well, that or a Scum Godfather). Why did I investigate him? Because shortly after I made this post: And thank you, kagemoto, for casting at least a little disbelief on my claim! Townie points for you. ... oldred came in with this: @wombat , but they are not `confirmed`as scum until dead . Just as Hal is not confirmed as a detective ,could he be making false claims ? It read to me like scum trying to grab some of the same townie cred I gave to kagemoto (which, in reality, was no townie cred at all -- it was all a setup to see who would try and make a play from some of said townie cred next).
