Pet theory was that Isis and Somnus are aligned and that Isis sniffed out where I was going following my engagement with Somnus.
Somnus has so far only rolled scum so I figured looking for gameplay patterns would be a lot more beneficial than doing so for the rest of the slots. In both games I noticed their reluctance to follow up pressure with votes so I'm reading their scum game as overly cautious.
In particular early voting. Transferring quotes from other games is a lot of work but the gist is that in both games there is a 10-20 page window until Somnus actually throws a vote down and that's only after testing the waters and gauging the room to see where votes are safe.
So I do townlean Somnus for the yolo nature of the goldfish vote, but with the caveat that they could have been coached by Isis to just throw it down.
I think RCE may have coached scum!Somnus in that aspect of their playstyle and then used it to TR them. The part about them potentially being coached by Isis sounds like RCE could have been (for lack of a better word) projecting.
I don't think y'all should discount the possibility of scum!Somnus. I agree that they aren't playing the same as last game, but as furtive said, why would they?
I apologize if my posting comes off a little spammy. If I commit to making one big post, I'll probably be dead before I get to say anything at all. I also don't have the motivation to do that.
Rereading scumthread, I forgot this post was made and was 100% spot on lol.
No matter how high the stakes, sooner or later you're just gonna have to go with your gut.
And maybe, just maybe, that'll take you right where you were supposed to be.
