The best way to play Surv, given a somewhat smart player group, is to announce "I'm surv" on the first day and vote with the biggest faction. Townies trying to hang someone? Vote with the townies. Maf + you outnumber the townies? Vote with the maf.

Smart players have bigger fish to fry than waste kills on someone who's no threat (although you will probably be investigated).

Townies MIGHT hang you because they know you might wind up voting with maf later, but it's very unlikely, particularly if you've taken the town's side on other votes.

Jailors are sometimes dickwads when you claim "surv" in jail (as distrusting you loses them nothing), but announcing it early on means they'll probably jail someone else.
