Anyway I feel really blegh about how it seems like I was made to bear the full brunt of picking a coalition and now the responsibility lies just on me.
The only good thing about the situation is the really funny flavor Prism made. Thanks Prism.
I kinda wanna town read gob for his really awful reads but the thing is he has awful reads as both alignments so I dunno
Anyway back to the actual point - I really wanna trust Klick because he risked not being in the coalition and because I somewhat doubt he would have needed to do the whole "sheep dragon" gambit as scum knowing that I didn't really trust him. On the other hand the gambit probably would have been amazing in a Klick/DV world.
Same thing -ish about Ydra, I don't really get why scum her would vote a coalition like that though obviously there is the (tiny) possibility of being scum with Klick or DV sooo
Idk
At least I know for sure the team isn't DV/implo now.

We should be on-wagon until we find 1 scum and go from there. Regardless if you are reading this and were on or off wagon, the odds of finding scum are better on the wagon than off.
First impressions of gob is that he's overplaying the lack of info on replacing in. I remember feeling good about Elements though.
I think the coalition we got was decent for info as it precludes any lower effort teams in (T3, Implo, Elements). Knowing now at least 2 of these 3 are town they'd be kinda lhf

Now I just lurk until DV and Klick figure out this is the correct solve and then we just convince two others.
The kind of rhetoric of this post is something I feel like I could write an essay about. In the last coalition game I played, I was scum and there was a player (Hero at Heart) who was repeatedly giving similar rhetoric of surety about their coalition (nb: both scum were in it). I think d1 in that game was somewhat easy for me to navigate probably in large part due to that kind of rhetoric, where certain people (myself included) were almost viewed as above scrutiny in a way that felt like it radiated out from Hero's reads. Granted, Hero actually did change his reads plenty of times iirc, but ultimately the town deferred to it with the only real objection coming from me (because i softly wanted my scumbuddy off the coalition).
In this case, I think this coalition is massively likely to have scum on it somewhere. And I don't think DragonEater has the same kind of rhetorical sway that Hero did in that game. But it really makes me not like the direction that this day is going right now.

The comment on scumplay is more a continuation of 155 than it is of 156
I should note that Hero at Heart is an alt of Dragon

What do you mean "vote a coalition
like that
" with Ydra?
Ydra voted a coalition that didn't include her and I thought that was pretty clearing, though of course if she was scum with Klick or something it wouldn't be really clearing. Idk I'm still thinking in implosion = scum terms.
