Round 10 Discussion
« on: September 22, 2021, 08:37:09 am »
That may have been one of the craziest rounds I've seen in a while. Sad that we didn't get rocks though! We were so close.

Can't believe one player flipped in one direction and then two others flipped back to counteract it.  Very exciting!!

It's bonkers! And I still don't fully understand it, did Oracle and Suzy just not know how Royal was voting?

Oracle has confirmed that he did know that Royal had flipped, so it seems like he really wanted Writer gone over Madame and forced the issue. Craziness...

This is music to my ears because Suzy, Duke and Gustave are literally my dream final 4 scenario. If this works out and we survive this round, then we are set to get to the endgame.

I'm still trying to understand why Oracle thinks he won't get fourth in this scenario. As in he has a very detailed plan to get to final 5 but then at that point Gustave and Duke are just supposed to take him to FTC over Suzy and like Herman.

Exciting, Richie is getting a second shot at the rings.  And I really think Madame D. is the exact right person to send to for his game.  I see Richie/Madame/Margot as a threesome that nobody will let get to the end so they need to be working together here for all their games.  If they can get two of Herman/Suzy/Royal over then they have a real path that wouldn't have seemed possible previously.  Especially with them having both the idols, it'd be quite a power set of players.

Would be very happy to see herman leave, that makes for fun content.

I think this simultaneously is rather past due and also probably a mistake for the majority.  He seems like one of the only votes that Richie might be able to pocket, which by extension makes him useful to Madame D and Margot.  Plus Duke knows that Duke is Herman's end game plan, so that makes a majority that should be working to keep Herman here.  The push apparently is coming from Madame D herself, but these people should probably be targeting Suzy.

Otoh any vote that is not one of Richie/Madame/Margot is good for that group of threats.  They have had Royal on-side thus far and if they can hang onto him they can tie the next vote without Herman, at least.

Think it will leak? Maybe to Madame via Duke, or maybe Herman to Richie.

I’m pulling for her but it’ll be pretty brutal if she’s blindsided with an idol in her pocket in two consecutive votes.

flipping back to herman after a suzy leak, fun

also worth noting that oracle never flipped onto madame D so at least in writing they never had the votes to get Madame

wow everyone is scrambling, looking forwards to seeing the recaps of this because beyond suzy leaking, I have no idea what's going on.

I really think they should have tried to shift to Richie or something post leak. For all the talk of pagongs, Madame and Margot just became very powerful and everyone else just surrendered to this new game state.
