For a while now, I've been quite annoyed by the fact that not enough players know what "cc" means.

I've claimed roles countless times, which only had room for 1 is the situation I played in. I ask for cc's, and 40% of the time people ignore the fact that I claim a possible role with nobody cc'ing.

IT MEANS COUNTERCLAIM.

CC IS TOWN OF SALEM SLANG FOR COUNTERCLAIM.

Can I stress that enough?

When a player asks for any cc's, they are basically asking if anyone alive claims to be that role instead, most commonly in a setting where there is only room for 1 of the role.

And as a true or an evildoer claiming, I often ask for counterclaims, as it is a powerful strategy to pull off successfully. But too many players don't have a clue what it means, or they just ignore no cc's.

And counterclaiming doesn't limit to identical opposing claims only.

If it is known (by the role list) that there is a alive, a person who claims  is practically instantly confirmed if nobody counterclaims a  role, such as.

If there could be an update such as a help/slang guide for all players to access in-game and such, it could massively help the win more games, especially in Classic, where "dumb" players are typically in every game.

And that, folks, is what grinds my gears.
