if yak goes n1, you've got 8 alive with 3 mafia in all likelihood, vigging n1 at worst reduces the scumpool and forces a d1 lynch, but you've got a 3/9 chance of hitting mafia and 1/9 of hitting the yak and not changing anything, only 1/9 you you hit the same kill as the mafia
if the yak DOESN'T go, you've got 9 alive, 3 mafia, but lynching wrong loses the game for town in most cases. shooting town means it's 5:3, which means you're forced to lynch that day, but tbh that's better than NLing and letting mafia stalk more, plus there's a chance you hit mafia and swing things in town's favor dramatically
and then there's also a chance you get yakked, at which point you want to be killing town
e: and of course vigging n1 is problematic for obvious reasons
That's because you two have never been in situations where you were playing against yourself, which is what playing against me is because I came from that meta.
literally everyone in the game: random hammer 2 minutes into the day rerisen, it's only day one!! no? well im tabbing out, forget your little "scumhunting".
