I'm pretty much on the verge of asking to be replaced because I'm just so confused and overwhelmed about everything - there are so many people and I don't know a thing about the theme, so every time I look at the thread, I just completely lose any inclination to write a response because of the sheer effort of sorting through things I'd need to do. Assignment deadlines are not helping. 
Anyway, my general thought-things, not sure if they've been brought up or not before:
1) Game setup discourages claiming as a defense. Town need to eliminate scum (which I assume is made of cult and normal scum team, good job on taking out the former) THEN engage in a blind free-for-all in which you don't know your allies but claiming or having claimed anything will draw the possibly lethal attention of both other town groups.
2) So.. nothing DID happen to Ssaliss despite the rock-crushing?
3) What are we trying to get out of people when we pressure them, taking into account that town have just as much reason to protect their true identity as scum?
4) I feel terrible for being Chinese and not knowing anything about all this. <.< There was this intimidating Chinese book version the school made us buy during secondary, but I never got past the first few pages.

Aww. Sorry Silferras.
1) Just about.
2) If something did happen, it didn't affect his ability to vote.
3) Mm. I don't expect much from the pressured person.
4) Everything substantial about Chinese culture, I learned from Wikipedia. Except New Year's Money. Mum and Dad taught that.
