Embarrassing part of being in a hydra is when your partner reads a message and you don't realize you ever got it.
I had a list and I was crossing out names of people who responded and everything.
Slysly responded as prompted, I'm just a dumbass.
@NC: That's not what I'm saying at all in regards to the situation--I'm not saying the accuser and the accused are town.
I'm saying it's incredibly awkward for a player to see a guilty and then respond, "ARE YOU WILLING TO EAT A LYNCH FOR THAT GUILTY?"
Because, first of all, who the fuck would fake a guilty D2 like that?
Second of all, it establishes pressure/expectation that the accuser will be lynched should the accused flip town.
There's only two straightforward reasons to do that;
1. As scum, you know that you can set up for a situation where town lynches two townies in a row.
2. As town, you're doubtcasting the guilty claim.
Both are anti-town.
That's why I find it scummy, especially coming from Infinity, who doesn't seem to be playing in a way that behooves that sensibility as town.
As far as my reads go, I'm less confident about them in general and I need to touch base with Grapes, which I haven't done since daystart.
