Alternatively, if claimed vanilla he doesn't have to worry about counterclaims or night results and it's not a role that requires any proof.

Yet, this lynch does seem pretty ideal, seeing as we either flip a scum or a vanilla...

WIFOM: TL is mafia and knew claiming village would be the least scummiest claim
@khz i think Paperblade was talking about how you say the only scummy evidence is the claim, instead of his other scummy actions.
It's late and that logic is probably not quite there. I'll review my post tomorrow.
EDIT: by "that logic" i meant my own not khz or anyone elses

That's good for the mafia too: since they know who's town and who's not (assuming only one mafia) and village have no reason to lie, they find the identity of power roles.
