Re: Sword and Shield Choice Pokéresistance
i'm not sure my feelings about stryke are rational enough to convince you guys the same, but i just don't feel right about it. for one thing, i don't really feel that bad about chem... i definitely see where you're coming from, keldeo, and think there might be something to it, but it just doesn't hit me in quite the same way as stryke does, and all things considered i'd rather have him on the team than stryke.
i feel a bit unsure saying that now, because reading back over these posts, i can for sure see a panini/chem world, and i'm not really sold on chem's innocence so i don't want to really push that too hard and have it blow up in my face. but.
i guess mainly it's that my previous experience with this game is that when people are saying stuff like "i don't know what's going on, just do what i say and i'll do it," it's often not coming from a good place. it could be any number of things, really; maybe he's communicating to his partner that they should post a suggestion, or maybe he's just looking for someone to suggest a team that contains another spy so he can cling to it and then push the blame back on whoever suggested it when it bombs. idk. it COULD be ok too, but... overall i get bad feelings in a way that isn't fully rational, and this contributes.
another thing is that stryke seemed okay with not placing himself on the team, which, like... i guess he could have misunderstood that, but something about "well people think i'm scum so i guess i'd better not put myself on it" seems weirdly weak in a way that actually indicates scumminess to me? this isn't mafia where his team selection is super important and if he places a vote we all disagree with then it's fucked... like, we can just. reject it and have someone else pick. (which might not be a bad idea btw?) i'm not really sure what to make of it...
i guess honestly if i followed all these thoughts to their logical conclusion, i'd arrive at a scum team that DOESN'T include panini, since a lot of these things i'm getting weird vibes from stryke about sort of predicate on a spy being in the suggested team, and if i think stryke is one too then that disqualifies panini. but idk. again, i'm not really married to this, i just get weird feelings. and i feel that we're ahead and if chem ends up flipping spy then... well, then chem's a spy and we know, and if he doesn't, then great! just more comfortable with a chem/me/keldeo/bfree team atm personally. not sure i'd reject a stryke one though.
