Hmm, what a way to start the game.
The questions that are to be asked now are:
- What are the benefits to claim Hunter as town hunter? As town non-hunter? And as scum?
- Should we believe his claim?
- Should the Spritualist check him?
- Should the Shaman guard him?
Benefits to claim as town hunter
Being able to confirm yourself without being CC'd, as a confirmed town, knowing that there is a shaman to save you if Mafia tries to kill you. That's pretty strong IMO.
Benefits to claim as town anything but hunter
Shield the real TPRs. That's a WIFOM possiblity that I will
not discuss further, since we can trust him anyway if that's what he's doing. I also ask to not discuss that point.
Benefits to claim as scum
Quite few, actually. All what is going to happen is, at best, a 1-1 trade of scum and town, which is bad for scum.
Should we believe his claim : I definetly do, 99 % for me.
Should the Spiritualist check him?
I don't think he's much of a doubt slot now,
so no, not really. Plus...
Should the Shaman guard him?
Probably, given the high likelihood that he is town. Plus, it would prevent the Spiritualist from getting false positives because of the Shaman. That being said, I'm leaving the WIFOM open here too, and this should probably not be discussed much more.
