Did you read my whole claim? I think you said you missed it the first time so I’m wondering if you took in all the facets of my claim.  
A few points:  
(1) As Crys stated, there are 5 of us. Crys knows there are 5 of us. I know there are 5 of us. I presume the other 3 know there are five of us. If I’m lying, you will know sooner rather than later. (Sidenote: I have a unique designation. Crys is “Second” if I recall correctly. I haven’t yet revealed which cultist I am, but I could and then the others could tacitly confirm that I’m not claiming their role. I’m not sure if it is worth it. Will have to think more.)  
(2) While Crys posting her entire role PM precludes any PM handshaking between us, I did leave breadcrumbs that I was a cultist for other cultists to find. These breadcrumb predate Crys’s claim.  
I get that a certain degree of skepticism and paranoia is warranted, but please don’t confuse possible with probable. Please take into consideration the entire claiming episode and the circumstances of that claim.

I’ll look up my breadcrumbs for you:  
From Night Zero:

> 37 Townies sounds plausible. With 14 scum (with powers, mostly) running about, another 4 anti-town elements (or even neutral) is pushing the boundaries of what Town needs to do to win. It is my personal opinion that Third Parties add to the Lynch burden of the town. Since we can’t know whether a third party player has an exclusive or inclusive win condition, we have to Lynch third parties. (Sidenote: I’ve always wanted to keep third parties around and make scum deal with them, but that never works out. Once a Third Party is found, it is near impossible to get the Lynch to go to anyone else). I think once we were able to leave the Survivor role alone, but I don’t remember how she (I think it was dotchan) was able to convince us that she was no threat to any side.

I knew the 37 number was wrong, but played along since I’m not supposed to know that the 37 number was wrong. I think I messed up and mentioned later that I didn’t think 37 meant number of Townies (oops). The discussion of previous Survivor roles was to get the attention of other cultists. “leave the Survivor role alone” refers to LUTHA meaning “leave us the hell alone”. “convince us that she was no threat to any side” was an allusion to the role PM’s wording, “You are no threat to any side. Good luck convincing them of this.”

The second is from Day One:

Luther instead of LUTHA.

Hee hee. Funny thing is, for a while I thought Johnny Bravo might have been a cultist because he said ‘hell’ in a post. But then a bunch of other people said ‘hell’ too and I thought, oh, maybe not.
