Mafia question of the day: is fake roleclaiming when you're TP ever good for the Town?

I've seen it used effectively a few times so yes but only under certain circumstances. If there's a likely chance a TP special will CC then it's a bad idea and it's probably a bad idea in a game with inexperienced players.

What would be the top 3 reasons to fake claim?

There would naturally be the odd time when the tactic works, but it comes with a high risk, and I think a good TP who wants to help their team should avoid it at nearly all costs. From what I remember certain CDC players are particularly fond of it, though, hence my asking of the question.

 

A TP's secondary objective (after 'finding scum') is to not let TP die (including themselves). Fake-claiming puts a target on their back and misleads the other TP. So I'm generally opposed.

I never do it, but I'd say:

 

1) You're 80+% certain of someone's affiliation and want to convince the Town to vote them out.

2) You want to 'shake things up' or 'see how ___ reacts' or some other BS justification like that.

3) You're Mafia.

Mafia question of the day: Should the Vigilante, if in the game, act on his/her own, or follow the Town's public advice?

In my limited experience, I would say the Vig should act on their own.

Their choice of target should be as accurate (hitting mafia) as any put up by the town.

I am in favour of not allowing the Vig a first round kill. Much to easy to hit TP.

Eh it's really situational so I'm not gonna make a list but I have seen it used from a VT to draw the mafia NK. As far as CDC mafia games go, I'll agree with MR and say they probably shouldn't be used.
