Rules for Finding the Doctor:

  1. The first person to indicate they are not the doctor is probably the doctor (+50%).
  2. If there is a claimed doctor, then anyone disputing it, without trying to appear to dispute it, is the doctor (+25%)
  3. The first player to congratulate the doctor is scum or doctor (+20, +10)

Notes:

Part of the reason Doc makes such a good claim for scum is that they have similar desires: Remain under the radar. Doctors are arguably the most valuable pro-town role, so players are reluctant to lynch a claimed doctor.

One tactic used by the mafia is to claim doctor, especially when the first mafia is forced to claim when under pressure of lynch (they need to claim something). It is such a powerful claim that it may be more likely that claimed doctors are mafia than doctor. It's often used to draw out the real doctor. It's a difficult position for the Doctor to be in. Therefore, they often seem somewhat incoherent or indecisive. Someone will definitely not believe a doc claim, but be tight-lipped about why. It's a judgment call, but it's not too tough to spot.
