Yep, I don't know how much it will help us today but it may later on, I will suggest that people deliberately overlap their made up ones with possibles given by others just to make it trickier to fake up, along with picking at least one fairly off the wall one. Try to make the group of five - and I think five is best - a mixture of very obvious picks like LotR and WoT and more obscure ones like Earthsea or such, not too obscure though, and of course don't forget to include your real one. If you see five or six people ahead of you pick LotR and such, don't overpack it, and don't hesitate to clone someone else's obscurer option either. This does give the scummers a bit more room to hide but it protects us more IMO, and could easily still be handing them the proverbial rope.

If anyone has any strong objections to this version of the strategy, kindly make them known before a bunch of us answer up, otherwise feel free to start answering up, directly to this thread or to a table I'll make tomorrow (going to sleep now) and I would say the order of response loosely goes to less active posters and those who did not reply to the last questions or were slow to do so. Also, let's please not have anyone at this time just give single claims... IIRC last crossover game when we did that, the person who did was actually a DF, but regardless I view it as a blatant attempt to claim probtown via implied vanilla-dom, as a role would not likely want to expose, say, being from Sherlock Holmes, since that would strongly imply 'Cop' for Sherlock, or 'Deputy' for Watson, and in game mechanics translates as 'dead man walking'... any way I'll start up a table tomorrow for it, it's late right now, if someone wants to start it up in the meantime instead then feel free. If someone has any legitimate objections to raise please do so ASAP.
