We already know scum was given some type of character claim hint, so I am not really happy with mere character claim here, since it tells us nothing.

I'm going to be honest and say I really have nothing other than a very strong gut feeling that Pie intuited the fakeclaim, e.g.:

"Mafia were not directly given fake claims! However I did give them a very strong hint to a role claim, and it is an open set up, so they will have a list of characters to choose from that may exist in this game."

Lunatic has a history of not giving protags and strong characters and town. E.g. in Stormlight Archives he gave arguably the two main characters, Kaladin and Jasnah, as fakeclaims. In MMA mafia he gave boxing and JJ for mafia, for Ozark he gave the entire flipping Byrde family.

I was on the push, so I'm one to talk. But since Austin was the one who accused Pie in the first place, do you retract your accusation? Or do you challenge the claim

Austin might be sus for pushing, but I'd like to see what he has to say in his defense first.

Edit: Just saw Austin's reply.

Just because Joe is essentially town and Grey is a lean town, I wouldn't say you automatically trust what they do. Reminder that town are wrong sometimes.

I put my trust in confirmed town players over any other players.

Everyone can be wrong, but only confirmed town players cant be scum, so less likely to feed us false logic.

Luna's theme split is protag vs antag in OP. Though it may come down to his interpretation of antag. Omni Man could be considered an antag or a protag imo from what I see. We just know what Luna said in general. My generation was also just to see also if there was anyone lying about a character

Ah, must've missed that for some reason. Yeah, if Omni-Man is in the game, it's going to be a little more difficult to determine where he resides on that scale, but the other antagonists you listed are pretty cut and dried.

Can anyone clarify why this is a thing?

I would vote anyone Joe or Gp tell me to. 

Also, I think pie needs to claim.

Suffice it to say that I'm going to wait and see if we can verify it during the NP, since that seems plausible given the claim.

I'd forgotten that she had a brother (name was Multi-Paul - gotta love those puns).

That's... an interesting role. I guess that means you can always hold back one Kate just to prevent yourself from dying from using them. It's pretty weak on the informational front, since you are functionally only able to receive information that someone was or wasn't visited in the night. It makes sense for the character, sure, but it's also odd that Luna would go through the trouble to say that he carefully balanced the game, sometimes at the expense of a role making sense for the character, then go out of his way to create a role specifically for this character. 

Appreciate that. Honestly, haven’t had many opportunities to function in the capacity of someone who is widely townread trying to lead a lynch. Clearly still have work to do on that front.

I gave up because it was pointless to try and convince the entire town that I was town, as it was essentially known I was gonna be lynch at some point no matter what. Even so, I am going to defend how I behaviorally played this game because I still think if Whiteflame wasn't a confirmed town, he would've been top of my scum list because of how unusually tunnel vision he was. 

The tunnel vision isn’t affiliation indicative in itself. It’s mainly just confirmation bias

Yea but won’t that hurt in the long run? If he’s mafia he has to stick with that fake claim for several days, most likely exposing him somehow.
