Yeah, that's fine.In post 2669, implosion wrote:Again, the breadcrumb is just one of many reasons I think he's town. Frankly it's the weakest. The combination of setup spec and my pre-existing townread on him is enough for me to write him off completely even if I ignore the crumb. And again, I don't think pp is experienced enough as scum to fake a crumb and a reaction in the way he did immediately after seeing the cop claim. But again. Beside the point.
Breadcrumbing (and people's reaction to it) is just one of those things that annoy me in mafia games. I agree that it is beside the point. We can debate the relative merits of breadcrumbing in postgame.
I further agree that PP is definitely not today's lynch, as I said earlier.
I don't think I agree with this.In post 2669, implosion wrote: Because she'll look scummy if LUV winds up flipping scum later. It's not complicated. With LUV very likely to die before endgame, it's smart play from boring-scum to keep pushing him because it gives her more towncred from his flip. It doesn't matter to her if she's scum whether LUV dies on d2 or later on, but, again, based on his play, he was very likely to die before endgame. And I'll quote boring again on this...
Sure, LUV was likely to die before endgame. He was a lurker that had basically no content.
I disagree that it was smart play to push him *when she pushed him*. He could have easily floated another day before she had to leverage the bus play for town cred. She wasn't on the menu D2; she didn't need the extra time that a bus would buy. I could see it D3 or D4, but D2 it just seems... I don't know, excessive? Just seemed unnecessary at that juncture, unless boring was massively overestimating the amount of heat on her.
I understand the value of mixed play; but pushing a team mate off the boat when there's no immediate threat just seems dumb. And so far Boring hasn't struck me as a dumb player.
That said, I did not expect boring's VT claim. I had a back of the head 'tracker' read on her from how the LUV lynch went down. She was full bore on him all day and in hindsight during N2 I thought that was a PR result. Oh well.
