To be fair our interests usually align when Chris is town. And if he's not, his interests are still very much aligning with my own.

Corrik help explain your read on why Chris is scum.

I do not believe that Chris would so easily dismiss the merits of testing the unlynchable claim day 1 when it was most likely to lead to a mislynch, which it did. I believe he would have understood very well the merits and reasoning that such an idea would have strong appeal to town day 1.

I believe Chris began the game pocketing votes to lead forward in the game. I also believe he knows Crescent is town in that scenario and that he would very much love to keep Crescent alive as long as possible as scum. I believe Chris is power hunting in the game with his lynch trains and claim forcing and mislynches.

Could I be wrong? Sure. I distrust him though mightily for his actions regarding Crescent day 1 though and how I envision he would play as scum in the scenario.

I also know that players, especially that don't play often, are more likely to idle out as Scum than Town.

I also know that Chris, though to be fair the entire game, have basically ignored completely my thoughts on Chang all game which have not only made my convictions on Chang stronger, but I also believe Chris has played a part in this. I am keenly aware that Chris said whoever claims first is town and Chang instantly claimed there with what would very aptly provide cover to Chris continue to ignore him.

I could be wrong on Chris, but I don't feel like his actions have been for the best intention of town.

I am surrounded by a game that will never stand up to him and will follow him forever, so I basically have to hope he is town. I doubt anyone has the will to actually defeat a scumChris this game, and it is just the unfortunate state of mafia in games without some of the players that play more through analytical play than just charisma following.
