Brasas: I'd like to ask my two fellow
"not on the wagon of either of the two jokers" - like me - what they think if 'role fishing', or 'overeaction' to same, is more worthy of being put under the magnifying glass in this summer sun - for more concentrated roasting of the L-1 variety.
Yes, I do mean the Wyrm and the Romantic Tartaruga. Voices of experience and all that. While you're at it, do Lift and Flub tend to buddy buddy? Inquiring minds want to know.
tl;dr I'm not sure what to make of this push into counter-push.
Long version:
Drealmer has been on offense for pretty much the whole game (all 39 posts of it!). He was the first to place a second vote on a wagon, and he was the first to place someone at L-1 (Wyrm and Flub, respectively). He's been hard after a claim from someone (anyone?). This feels unusual to be coming from him, but when I stop to think of alternatives for pushing the game forward, I can't come up with anything. I'm torn between "he's different" and "he's supposed to be changing it up".
I don't care for the role fishing, though. Assuming the roles use the restrictions we usually use (and double checking Macho on mafiawiki), then the cop and the doctor will be killed on the night following their claim (unless both claim on the same Day, in which case it depends on the scum team's priorities).
Flub's delay in reacting to being at L-1 before ultimately counter voting Drealmer feels odd. I'm feeling a sort of younger brother to the confusion I felt when he pulled that Day 3 LAL vote on me last game. Unfortunately, I couldn't read Flub if my life depended on it (and I flash right back to last game, where it did).
Lift was the second person to place the second wagon vote and third wagon vote on someone (Flub and Drealmer). Lift's vote to push Drealmer to L-1 feels like his usual aggressive play. While I wouldn't have predicted it happening, I'm completely unsurprised at his vote. I've seen him do it as both town and scum, so I consider it a non-indicator by itself, especially when there is so little information on the table.
I don't see the push on Drealmer as scum buddy play between Flub and Lift; each feels like they've come to their vote through their own means. This doesn't preclude one of them being scum, but I doubt both are.
