It's safe to say that scum will never, ever be the last person on any Supersaint wagon in this game. They will never, ever willingly die 1 for 1, so they will always let a townie get killed by the Supersaint instead. It will happen 100% of the time if scum aren't complete braindead fools. This means that at whenever a Supersaint is lynched, regardless of their alignment, a townie on their wagon will die. Supersaints don't even get a choice in the matter. There's no way around it. Now, if Vengeful Townie claims (I hope you understand that scum lie, meaning its likely all these claims are really Townies) are lynched instead, that Vengeful Townie gets to choose anyone they want to die with them. It doesn't have to be the last person to vote them. It can be literally anyone, which means that Townie has a shot at killing scum, rather than having a 0% chance of killing scum like Supersaints do.
What does this all mean? It means that in my opinion, Supersaints should not be lynched by default, because they are 100% anti-town when lynched. It's FAR better for Vengeful Townie claims get lynched instead, and if that player isn't scum, they should use their kill on Supersaints, thus negating Supersaints' kill ability entirely, which again, is 100% anti-town 100% of the time. It's never going to work in Town's favor at any point in this game, so if scum are Supersaints, the best way to take them out is by Vengeful Townie kills. Supersaints should be policy killed due to their anti-town nature, and I think it's almost certain that at least one (if not more) scum are among the Supersaint claims.
Does this not make sense?
