Honestly, I find all this pushing for hard claims rather disconcerting. Disc's pressure on Grey, for instance, was totally unnecessary and arguable counterproductive from a town POV. Grey's role claim should have been enough to remove him from contention for a lynch for this DP at least, and should have moved him into Disc's townpile. Yet Disc's immediate reaction is to press for more information.
That boggles my mind. As Wylted and I seem to agree, it is conventional wisdom that the outing of too much data early in the game benefits scum more than town. And Disc has not--despite my questioning--articulated a positive reason for pressuring Grey. If anything, Disc's response was defensive. By defensive, I mean that Disc focused on explaining why it wouldn't hurt if Grey outed that additional information.
The defensive mindset indicated by Disc's reply to me is, I think, suggestive of a scum alignment. So, too, I think, is the role-fishing/information-hunting that does not benefit town. It's not like Grey was scum and needed to claim to clear himself. And, if Grey had outed his character, arguably mafia would have benefited more than town. I don't really see a town motivation for Disc's pressure, but I do see a scum one.
The more I think about it, the more I am wary of Disc and his play this game thus far.
