I asked:
well in that case I am also bulletproof, but my vest has only a 50% chance of working
Why didn't you say this in your original claim?
He responded with:
If I am the only one with a "role" on the town that basically town confirms me and claiming a tracker means I was surely the night kill target. Do you have a role? Weren't you also saying everyone was vanilla?
I asked him why he added something onto his claim post hoc (further compounded by "well in that case"). It seemed suspicious, like he was trying way too hard to convince everyone that he was the special non-vanilla town. This was why I asked him the question. He responds by saying, "Well, if I claimed this role, so I am basically town confirmed". Also, he stating that by claiming tracker, he would've been the NK target for the night before? And then he asks me if I have a role, a question literally answered by the fact that I asked if everyone except Lunatic was vanilla. His response didn't answer my question, and seemed like a dodge, hence why I VTL'd him.
