I'm down to jam if u want, I think a lot of people aren't really talking about anything meaningful this phase

rolecop is a good draft. with informed rolecop is an excellent draft.

Interesting, I didn't register that was your townbloc. Would you mind still vigging me please? Hypothetically.

Why hard town on Brian?

I think it's a lot less likely given they chose informed
why are those ideas connected to you
I'm starting to wonder why they don't seem to be connected to anybody else
You know when most people are condescending they are least are explanatory
Sorry, really wasn't trying to be condescending. I just, like... It feels obvious to me? If scum picked informed they can't be multitasking. That means if they all got roles, one would have to not use their role to take the NK. And if two of them pick the same numbers, one of them has to end up as a vanilla goon (and both might), so multitasking wouldn't matter.

But as informed, multitasking already doesn't matter, so it's no big deal if one of them ends up as a VT as that person can take the NKs.

Look I'm high as hell right now, I'm not sure that explanation makes sense outside of my head at the mo
Even if you won rb in the draft and never used it you're still neutralising a powerful draft row I don't think this holds a lot of weight but I enjoy the alternate theory

UB is better as town than rolecop lest you’re trying to catch someone in a lie

So, refer back to me saying UB is better…
Actually…this explains the ydrasse kill
oh maybe yeah

I think Ydrasse was probably just a low info high tpr equity kill

Then trust me. I’ve actually done a lot more explaining than I would like to do and if it becomes necessary later for mr dr Brian skies than I shall do so later.

That's fair. I still don't feel pressured to have Brian locked in and I think Brian is exploring interesting stuff which is net positive for solving this game anyway.

Sure - that confirms town picked up Dr/Rb like I said.

It actually doesn’t really matter beyond that, but love your confidence.

My take on this:

The speed of the Gob wagon is more indicative of the playerbase's general will to get rid of an annoying player (a policy axe, if you will) rather than any one team pushing for an axe.

I will say though that this assumption (that scum have little power to dictate wagons) only holds if scum are in the lurkers and not in the active players. If, as an example, Firebringer and Dave were both scum, then the wolves would have a huge influence over what wagons get pushed.
that's a spicy If, but I like how only you tried to offer a plausible explanation on the speed of the gob
I really hope Fire did not read that hypothetical as "This is what I literally believe to be true." I pulled two active players' names out as examples of people who could have an influence over the wagons.

I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”
