I'll go over this again, just to expalin why everybody should claim to guarantee a win.
If everybody claims, there is 1 of 3 things that will happen.

1)
I go uncontested, this means Zyla is conf town.
The other Power Role is uncontested.
Zyla is conf town
Scum is hiding in one of the last 2 slots.

2)
I go contested
The other Power role is uncontested
The other 2 claim town.
In this scenario, I'm lying, or the person who counter claimed me,
we have 2 days to eliminate both, meaning town wins because 1 of them is scum

3)
I go uncontested
The other Power Role goes contested
Zyla is conftown
The other person claims town
Out of the 2 people contesting the other power role, we have 2 days to hammer both, town wins



Not claiming is basically admitting you're scum.

Nigh 2 I tracked Zyla, they didn't do anything, but a death occured, meaning they aren't a PR or scum.
If the other PR claims, and there are no counter claims, we know its one of the 2 remaining people, if there's a counter claim, we know its 50/50 either way.
Town wins.
Assuming you aren't lying,
Zyla - town
Me - town
You - town
Scum in super/unwnd?

shiiiiit if that's the case, we're in a little trouble because I was thinking the scum was in James and ninja.
I'm assuming James isn't lying cuz lying as last scum is like suicide.

I won't claim this early in the day, sorry. However, if I believe claiming is necessary, I will do it.
Atm I think its not lylo and theres no actual need to claim?
suit yourself. I won't claim right now because that's antitown and narrows down the setup for scum.

So I guess that means that Noraa, Unwnd, and Super are our major suspects, but we've got a 1/3rd chance of being in a game with a mafia-roleblocker (and jailkeeper), so I guess I'm not 100% ruled out? (I mean, I am town, but I'm not confirmed yet I guess)
But I'm down for trusting James if no one else claims

Ok the logic basically checks out. So basically, you won't get contested if you're town because scum would be kind of stupid to do that since even if you die today, scum dies tomorrow
ok imma just assume you're telling the truth
I am vanilla town.
That means super or unwnd has one pr. The other is scum

Just to show it isn't any column C shenanigans I'm pulling.
If we assume there's a Cop and we're in row C, tracker makes no sense, no grid spot has Tracker + Cop. If there're masons, Tracker makes no sense. Meaning there must be a Jailkeeper if I claimed Tracker in Column C. First of all, in row C you'd have no way of knowing if there was a jailkeeper, you only get 1 kill, and if it's stopped, no kill occurs, this didn't happen N1 or N2, so if I were scum in Column C, I'd have no way of knowing if there was indeed a Jailkeeper. Secondly, I'd also claim Friendly Neighbour as Scum in Column C, it's much safer to argue I targetted JohnnyFarrar Night 1, and catboi Night 2. Claiming Tracker here is risky, as what if the person I happened to choose randomly as a track target, happened to be the Jailkeeper.

Anyway, that's the only 1 potential mechanical issue but that's explained now.

if the night result you got was "no action", then that means they didn't move and were not jailed.
if zyla was jailed, you would get "no result"
if zyla moved, you would've gotten something like "they visited [blah]"
