Oh God, post restrictions....
Oh thank God,
@Flower isnt the host and
@MangoSenpai isnt in the game
The 10th man theory is a IRL strategic though exercise created by Israel after the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Brooks used it in his book because thats something Mossad and the CIA both do.
Now for game talk: Even with AM's claim of double vote power, him dying night 1 stands out to me. You'd think since he wasn't one of the top posters, and with his general repuation and style of play, that he would be a mid game kill from Scum. Yes the double vote power gets stronger the longer into the game it gets, but night 1? You'd think you'd want to try and either court him early to try and gain some townie points, or to direct him away from your own scum mates if youre scum and call this kill. It feels more like an indie kill, but that means either scum got blocked, or scum just wanted AM dead and didn't believe they could counter him or engage him much in the thread imo. Fang, Reloaded, Tpein and I were the ones who had our votes on AM for the longest, and Fang notably also dodged his lynch with a Wagon Burn, but I don't see why to target AM over people like Pot Goblin, Vodka, etc who are more active and a threat in the thread even with 2x vote this early.
