Maybe what you are saying is true, but it would be awfully inconvenient (and ill-informed) for you to have missed the posts where BCT clarified that he was vanilla.
The claim itself is not even the problem, you targeting someone who died is.
Even that has explanations (of which I am well aware due to experiences), but you should understand the signs against you.

I will say, even if I did 100% know that BCT was claimed Vanilla with no confusion (which I wasn't), there's still a very strong chance that I would have scanned Corrik still anyway. He was my number 1 suspect and I think his claim with my role was directly testable. I mean think of what would have happened if I came into today with Corrik alive and knowing that he COULDN'T move. I would have to publicly 180 and soft claim power to explain why I wasn't going after Corrik anymore, because he would have been confirmed town in my eyes. Is that not super valuable?

I do understand, and don't hold it against people wanting to lynch the person tracked to the body. I really do. I just want people to examine other things and give me a chance if possible, because an inactive town that is willing to just follow the scan, fall behind after lynching a scanner, and having less content to fall back on afterwards, is a recipe for success. I will say that scum is MORE than happy to just let me die easily. So people taking the back seat like Plum who are admittedly happy to "make sure things don't go off track" should be looked at with extreme prejudice.

So in that respect, I do really have to give Peaf town points for trying to push conversation and do a lot of analysis today. He is certainly not one sitting back on his ass happy to let things go, even if I do think he's a little too biased against me some times. :(
