you said u liked Dat's case but wanted to stay on shoshin.
so, you think shoshin more likely scum?

What's the difference between the two? I also don't really think the second reason is particularly valid.

so, the whole point of datisi's case on me is that i did this once when i was *comfortable* with the gamestate

i can't really be comfortable with the gamestate, as datisi says, if people are light fosing me but driving a wagon on my scumbuddy shoshin

but you buy Datisi's case

so when you go "Omg, something's wrong, shoshin/iv is the obvious solve but is it really that easy", i just don't buy that this is real paranoia that a real townie would have

there is an obvious reason to not believe shoshin/iv/? is the solve which happened to be the somewhat necessary conclusion of datisi's scum!iv case that you found convincing

I think Shoshin hasn't responded to pressure is a very townie way, and why would we dismantle a good wagon for no reason when that's the case?

I think she is certainly scummy.

I really don't think so. First wagons normally disappear fast. If you are scum, you shouldn't be that uncomfortable considering if shoshin really was ur buddy there are plenty of good counter wagons to start. For example, me.

Scum have to make a quick decision on speed wagons. If Shoshin is town, they are more likely to stay off the wagon if it is town driven.

IDK for sure about ABR, but I'm definitely town.

Why do you think that's not valid?


Pedit - lol ok

if shoshin isn't feeling pressure yet this will be the extra spice to seal the deal

claim time shoshin

if noraa hammers vig/yeet her tmr

so specifically, while reading Datisi's part on me being comfortable with the gamestate when Shoshin isn't town

you went, "nah, IV could totally be comfortable here even if Shoshin was the buddy, they're just going to start another CW"

? or am i getting the order of events wrong? (im interested in the t i me l i n e of your thought process, yes)

In post 693, innocentvillager wrote:im interested in the t i me l i n e of your thought process, yes

is there a problem with my timeline?

i just don't understand, how as scum i could possibly be comfortable with this gamestate when ABR has a reputation for just like, powerdriving elims (probably as scum as well as town) and hammering early

In post 691, VP Baltar wrote:Scum have to make a quick decision on speed wagons. If Shoshin is town, they are more likely to stay off the wagon if it is town driven.

Why wouldn't scum be bussing Shoshin at this point? If she is town, I feel like there is going to more scum on the wagon. That's why I don't think people off wagon are necessarily scum.

i think baltar/iv are likely the same alignment but i have nothing but Gut and Feels to back that up with and i don't even remember why i had that thought anymore

which is also concerning considering my gun-to-head reads are scum on iv and town on baltar (though i would rather not have a gun to my head for that last one)

this game is difficult

ill take this as an admission that what i said about your thought process timeline was accurate, ya?

so I'm scum!IV with scum!shoshin here

i see my buddy getting powerdriven up and him flailing around

im like, totally chill with everything, yup no problem, we're comfortable, im just gonna keep shitposting and coasting because we're doing great

we are super well positioned around a shoshin flip because we hardbussed them from the beginning and we feel confident we can just let shoshin fakeclaim and then we just switch the wagon over to somewhat else, like you

... i just, am trying to envision this world but cannot

Having been in this exact position as scum opposite ABR in Revelations, I can confidently say the decision to bus is a hard one when the wagon happens super fast.

In that game, I made the choice to bus my buddy Aero, but my other buddies hemmed and hawed and it was a shit show. Plus since this is the first wagon, scum wouldn't be wrong to assume it falls apart 9/10 times.
