its also even harder for mafia to make realistic fake claims when they may under/over estimate the cost of actions if we do choose to include cost in the massclaim
(but again cost can be an indication of money so idk if its worth including)

As much as I'm against a massclaim right now I do actually think notty is town (minor 3rd vibes).
I don't see a circumstance in which mafia would ever push for a mass claim so early on in the game.

some may not have their own abilities (like vanilla mafia in games only have the ability to kill, or pluck in this case, and that was suggested to have an irrationally low cost according to sign up thread (but theres no certainty that the example action in sign up thread was 100% the mafia kill)) + no certainty that the coin total and so respective cost of mafia abilities reflects town
also on a random note if there is a trait census ability in this game like there was in pearled bridge, i recommend going for multitasker since i think that could be a trait all mafia have if they do have multiple actions (pluck & [whatever])

Even if the cost is stupidly low it can still be realistic since that only makes it a one-use-per-night action anyways
I have coffee
i think that similarly in the pearled bridge game the PID killer had to kill 3 people
in that case (and i doubt we have a serial killer) the PID killer doesnt have to necessarily be opposed to town and can instead function as a vigilante!
Not even if the mafias had roles which when they claimed wouldn't be particularly suspicious (tracker, watcher, role cop, role blocker, etc)?
I don't see how it even matters if Mafia has roles that 'blend' in since not only would they have to come up with a result every single day but also they would claim this regardless of massclaim.
If them claiming a blending role is such a problem you'd have that problem in a few days anyways except then they have had plenty of time to make results up that targeted dead people.
True, it is harder for them if they claim something like an investigative role
but they can claim a weaker role that isn't investigative or can rarely be used?
"Sorry guys I don't have enough coins!" or "I can't afford to use my ability right now in economic panic" or "This isn't the right time to use my ability"
Or "I don't have an ability"
Asking for a massclaim as mafia could be a high risk high rewards move, but who knows.
Suspicious.
Trash excuse for any investigative role.
Said no-one ever except a 1-shot vigilante.
Suspicious.
Like what? What stops them from claiming this later in the game if we don't massclaim? If you don't think we can suss them after they claim now then what is your plan for the late game after they claim this role anyways?
