If they’re scum, they don’t need to survive to end game. They just need to survive long enough to do damage with whichever power they have. As there are several people pulling for “leave them alone until later in the game,” we can hardly call the idea of such a plan completely out of left field.
Lynching Sachertorte may or may not net us scum, but it will definitely not result in a town lynch* and it will definitely give us hard facts that we do not currently have.
HOWEVER, this just bugs the shit out of me:
I don’t see how this can be interpreted as anything but extremely anti-town. This game is already ludicrous and we know the mods are having a hard time keeping up. Encouraging behavior that would disrupt the actual working of the game has such enormous potential to backfire and hurt town that I can’t even fathom this sort of attitude.
Not to mention that it’s a serious jerk move.
ToeJam is my second choice for a vote.
*Unless he’s lying town, in which case lynch him anyway.
