Apollo's one post of substance today so far didn't really fill me with much confidence, and overall I have felt like she is coasting and also latching onto a scumread of SkyChuggs, which could be subtle bussing behavior or could just be Scum trying to act like they have a scum read. I haven't seen Apollo as Scum yet in previous games, but something does feel different here to me compared to playing with/spectating her as Town. Could just be trouble keeping up though, since I know others are probably thinking the same possible coasting scum thoughts about my partner who I know to be Town, and that was something that I got wrong just in this game about my read on B-Dubs. I have a hard time distinguishing genuine coasting from just low-post-count Town players. Ask LP lol.
Let me say this first - both you and
Dr. Monkey type way faster than what I can keep up with. I'm way behind, apologies.
Thank you for answering, honestly way more than I expected. As I said earlier Verollo is a boat I'm willing to reconsider, but that depends on how the day plays out. And I do think a good Apollo read is key for that.
@Reki - Excise meta on rac. Do you think scum sits on a cop claim for days?
(There are meta reasons why this might actually work, though I find them unlikely. But with a blank slate, tell me the pros/cons you see here.)
You mean the mafia team, right? Or a potential mafia!rac? Regarding the first, it depends on how much the mafia team trusts about Pirate Bae's claim;
1. In regards to her and malus actually being cops:
1.1. You'll want them dead as soon as possible. But that's the obvious doctor move too after a claim, and you don't want to lose the NK.
1.2. Knowing they're vanillas, they want to avoid a mislunch but bait a NK. That's a bad play though since the doctor will waste their move, the baddies won't look there that first night and other PRs could be at danger. It may work on successive nights too.
2. In regards to the amount of shots:
2.1. If it's true, then there's no reason to target them at night. The doctor will probably protect them and then they'll be just vanilla for the rest of the game.
2.2. But it could be also a lie to avoid a NK. This will mess not only with mafia's targets but with doctor's targets too.
In regards to mafia!rac, I think I've discussed this with you before (I mean in a spec thread, in general terms) but everything could be WIFOM there, sitting on a partner vote just to distance himself.
I know he's been alone pushing for it until D3, but I don't see how this helps us reading rac. You want to lunch Pirate Bae today so it's obvious where you're coming from, but I do need something else to go there.
By the way I'll answer your comments about my Kyandonna read. It's just that I've wrote and scrapped that post a couple of times already.
