THUNDERDOME LOSER 2019
i mean i think keats does make a pretty major assumption when he thinks "scum captains would not be told that other people received their roles in a certain way"

i'd assume that captains get role powers and captain status assigned to them all at once personally

but it's good enough for d1 probably

THAT BEING SAID the votes piled on so goddamn quickly that if tpc does flip scum i think there's a solid chance of there being someone from the other scumteam on them rn

I do think it's a big jump to think that, for several reasons.

We all know when we were told our alignment, and it was with ample time prior to day 1 starting. Scum would have certainly already be talking and exchanging role information. It's *very* hard to believe that that discussion happens without the captain learning (directly or implicitly) that the roles are not connected to alignment, and that their team had gotten the roles before put in scumchat.

But how easy is it to believe that a non-captain makes such an obvious mistake that literally every non-captain player should intrinsically know? Seeing how TPC makes that mistake, we know that it happened (unless he was pretending). This outcome is nearly inconceivable as either captain or non-captain

Vibes based on AN's comment during the draft and Cob's vote.

Cob is probably a stronger "case".

Would also vote TPC, mainly because of the missing word in this post reacting to your vote:

##hit CUBE with pitch

Keats Hits First Dozen Homeruns

The game was off to an exciting start as Mr Spork Chan loudly announced that Gary could get hosed while several unpicked players were dragged off the field in tears. In the middle of this confusion, Johnny Keats, everybody's favorite heel player, picked up the bat and hit it at lightning speed, right into Dr Sugarcube, M.D., who flew off the field and into the sky. Onlookers swear they saw the legendary twinkle effect.

Unfortunately it turned out that Dr Sugarcube, M.D., was actually the umpire, and also not a valid target for the ball! Additionally, while Johnny Keats managed to complete a dozen homeruns before he got bored with waiting for Cube's return, he was sadly disqualified for using his robotic boosters to speed himself up. The score remains at a solid zero, one minute into the game.
