Busdriver is a make or break situation role in that they can indirectly kill mafia by their own foolishness of choosing an obvious target, and that should not be outed to prevent an idiot from blowing himself up. No mafia is stupid enough to dispute a bomb claim, and any town to go in before time for a counterclaim is given is asking to get blown to bits.
All in all, I Vote Spiesr for even suggesting the idea of the busdriver outing. Spiesr is good enough to know that the busdriver can finish a game just by having the brains to pick out the mafia (go back to my first game, FF7 for a prime example of me being the SK and dying to my own blade due to a smart move by the mafia bus driver).
So, are you saying that you would rather have us lynch the bomb and lose a townie to the explosion, possibly have crazy lynched over the fiasco, and
then have at least half the town think Squirrel is a scum busdriver instead of Squirrel claim today? Am I sorry, but I simply can't see how that would be the better option.

I quite feel like asking nag a bit more about this, but we just uncovered way too many prs. only thing I know is that this is advancing fast, not necesairly in the way i would like.
In this game, which is at least low-vanilla then having it exposed that nagerous had a night action isn't really a big deal at all. Simply because most of the town probably has an action of some sort.

Amusingly enough, this WIFOM game also works if betiko is scum.

Technically we can't label betiko as "clear" at this point. The evidence that could a fixed him as scum is non-existent, but that just puts him back in the "unconfirmed claim" category.

Though its a low blow to insult intelligence levels, I have just never seen a person claim a bomb and not be it except for 1 occasion and they died because the real bomb countered it. So I can say very willingly that had that happened, I would have taken Mr. S's side on his reasoning had it been something similar to what I said.
Your assessment that a "smart" town would never lynch an uncounter-claimed bomb (even when we had circumstantial evidence pointing to him not being a bomb!!!) has unfortunate implications. Basically if what you say is true then it is the perfect fake-claim because a "smart" town wouldn't lynch a claim barring some very solid proof.
