I know some others have already brought it up but I am also very cautious about Diego's claim. Someone should definitely look into them if they can tonight as I don't want to lynch him without proof of it, but honestly I don't agree with his reasoning for claiming. If I were him I would have waited until I could no longer protect myself or take care of myself before doing such a thing. By claiming immediately he has taken away any chance for our cop to have said something about Musicfan. I see this as more destructive behaviour as it allows more room for scum to hide with just a simple soft claim.
Idea, Diego fake claims to take our role claim for the day. Says "Don't target me, I can take care of myself. Target someone else"
Scum bud says "We should lynch musicfan today. trust me" soft claiming cop and trying to get an easy town lynch, plus doctor protection since Diego doesn't need it, as he has stated, leaving town open and mafia basically guaranteeing themselves at least one or two nights of free kills if they keep up with it unchecked.
No I'm not saying this is what is going on, but giving a scenario that explains why I am very unsure of this hasty a claim. Besides that I am totally ok with an SMS lynch if we decide to go that way today. There is something really odd about the way SMS has acted the past couple of days and while I somewhat understand new player argument, There's just too much and it seems destructive to town as well.
Yeah I'm still very wary of Diego's claim since what he's saying doesn't add up with the night scene. Since Shulk is the narrator, it doesn't say or allude during the night that anyone tried to target him and only refers to a "leader". Though Shulk says "our leader" so that kind of complicates things - plus the Cult Leader went after the leader. If anything the only one who could have targeted Shulk, the narrator, is the figure with the burly arms; though we have no idea if that's the Mafia or SK yet.
Anyway, the thing that doesn't add up is that Diego said that he claimed rather fast because the night scene revealed Shulk when it really didn't. He also said two people tried to kill him, which didn't happen (he even said he got a PM saying that two people who tried to kill him got redirected). How is this possible? The night scene clearly says that each of the attackers went after
different people. He also said his role deflects a killing role off of him onto the aggressor. This, again, didn't happen. First off not one, but three of the roles mentioned in the night scene all got redirected - this isn't a case of just a deflection. Also how come it defect towards his aggressors? At first Diego though Sadia was Mafia and that she tried to kill him and it got deflected back, but she was 3rd party and Savage was Town.
Honestly I'm starting to lose a bit of trust since a lot things just aren't adding up. If you are the JoAT then great, but I don't want scum hiding behind a false claim or a hostile 3rd party role doing the same. The thing is though, I don't want to risk killing you, but rather I'd want to know for sure so I can fully trust you without my paranoia getting the better of me. It's annoying me since I'm spending the Day analysing the Night scene trying to pick up clues and I'm super paranoid that Diego could be lying because of the inconsistencies.
