Okay, it was The Pitt mafia, and Miller was given to scum as a fake claim by the moderator. That's different; zero risk there. Here, we know mafia were not given fake role claims. At least, it's implied by the OP.

Then let's just consider him at L-1 (I'll commit my vote) and move on. Who's our next person of interest?

good let's get him claimed so we can quickly move him to the town pile and this won't be an issue in the endgame
He's already at L-2. I imagine we'll be getting a claim from him before EOD.

Has nothing to do with meta. That post was questioning how willing any smart scum player would be to claim Miller. It's a fake claim that puts you in the position of needing a Cop to be in the game but also needing there to not be a Miller already, and since the former makes the latter likelier, who would fake claim it? Sussing the fact that I spoke in broad terms instead of about Rex individually seems like poking at a nothingburger.

As far as I'm concerned, if someone's pushing for a mass role claim, they should lead the way. I can't say I support the mass claim and the push for it consistently sets me on edge, but I feel like pushing for it and then avoiding claiming when attention is drawn back to you for any reason seems a little off.
I am equally shocked that "claim because you suck" hasn't been a persuasive approach.

Moderately
It was highly speculative of him, but it's not sus enough to overpower the Miller claim. Don't you agree? There were a few games where scum had roles that required them to guess the PM of a townie, like Ted Lasso mafia.

Can anyone remember a game on DC where scum claimed a Miller?
No, though that's besides the point. Scum would have to bank on the existence of a Cop in the game. We know they don't have role information beyond what their roles say. If they have reason to believe there is a Cop as a result, then they wouldn't know there's a Miller and could be walking directly into a CC. If they have reason to believe there isn't a Cop, then they're just slow-walking their way to a lynch as more roles come out. I don't buy either one.
I have no idea why the latter did not occur to me, but yes, good point.

There could be hidden role elements as well - scum could have a role that requires them to guess the targets role, for example.
This is such blatant TMI that it's ridiculous

Pay someone to dress like a king and bottom for him, that will solve all this without getting you confused about which systems of government are better for the people.
I'll give it a shot but you owe me $20 if it doesn't work
Bet.
scum have definitely claimed miller. if it works they know they get a pass for most of the game.
Seems very risky. There's usually a Cop in the game and thus often a Miller already.

My town pile is Rex only rn. I've never seen scum claim Miller. Only way I can imagine they would is if they received no anti-Cop abilities, inferred there's no Cop in the game from that, and decided it was worth the risk to claim Miller.
I was gonna say Thoth gets a few points for suggesting the mass role claim because scum would be unlikely to want that, but on second thought, it was unlikely to ever get off the ground. Inconclusive, inconclusive.

The far-right male yearns to be dominated, and confuses these impulses for political views. Pay someone to dress like a king and bottom for him, that will solve all this without getting you confused about which systems of government are better for the people.
This game is progressing more slowly than I anticipated. I'm good with getting a role claim from anyone atp I guess. Also good with just using an RNG to pick someone to push.

Once wylted gets back on he will quickly get on Thoth's wagon, which will put him at L-2.

You compassionate hand wringers are really cramping my anarchist zest here. It's a perfectly kosher play, it's not like we're breaking his game. It will probably be disastrous anyway.
Oh whatevs. Let's spend the DP poking our fork at odd peas and stray crumbs on our plate as usual.
