lmaooo are u gonna be one of those commentator gimmicks?
I'm focused on winning. I'm not interested in gimmicks. That's for you guys in the media to argue about.

I'm 100% for all of this

J's being helpful, I don't trust it

In older days on the Syndicate, it was not uncommon for the Day 0 post to have some sort of mechanical impact on the game. Epi hails from that era. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a hidden significance to these votes.

it's pretty clear imo that we're going so where based on what we pick on the poll. Like it might effect what kinds of mini games and stuff

How is that "clear", and not actually "a colossal assumption"?

clear, in my opinion. Iunno reminds me very much like old games like Slooni said. I read that d0 post, it sounds like it will implicate in the story. either the kid will go to sleep, or he runs away. I
I don't know if anyone has incentive to go to different places out the gate, but I'd expect the next day to be themed after our choice. Like he's not gonna go to sleep if we say "beg dad to stay up longer".

my game was closed and u won it

this thing is almost certainly multiball with bizarre mechanics

so dont tryhard, you will get burned / your effort will go to waste

i dont think this is a competitive game, its just to have fun with the crew, celebrate the past year

It was!

btw, ur not bad this game are you?

nutella wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 11:54 pm one thing to consider is GOC is typically multiball, it's been a while (i think since last GOC) since i've played multiball and there can be quite a different dynamic since the mafia can hunt each other so it's easier for them to seem towny

so probably smart to be cautious about those sorts of reads

i still think a lot of types of reads can be >rand tho

multiball?

multiple mafia teams and/or 3p

ooo, dope! maybe they'll fight each other

oh we haven't played Hyena, nice to meet you!

i should probably say something less fluffy. my iso is probably awful rn

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 12:01 am I've started to add ISO links to the first post. They're currently in backwards order. If anyone knows how to fix that, feel free to PM me and I can adjust them. Please don't respond here, thanks.

this is a vendetta

preferably both

[VOTE: LC] aubergine

we could play a game of mafia in thread?
@Alison could host!

Oh hell yeah. I'm so down!! do you have character sheets?

I found a few brain cells and they have a question:

What's the leader look like? any distinct clothing? weapon visible?

MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 1:45 am Well I do believe I am going to do a running dropkick directly at the dude that's sassing us

"don't dropkick onto a sword Dac. Maybe this guy is stupid."
I look around....

"does anyone else hear that?"

(maybe we should have some sort of action order/initiative or something? I don't know how this works, this is my first time playing)

"Wait so the beast wasn't there? huh. That would of been convenient"

"huh, RIP. He was kinda cute"

I ignite my hands preparing to shoot dope fire balls at them, and jump to the further back of the bandits I can see to try and flank

that was very fun

i cant leave u hanging

I'm rolling an Acrobatics check for the jumping part. Your dex is 14 so I'm gonna say Acrobatics Bonus of 4. Rolled 11 + 4 = 15.

X swiftly and tactically jumps to the further back of the bandits that were visible to him and prepares to cast a Fireball on his next turn, gaining flanking bonus.

but yeah, uhh game of champs.

I feel like deflate-gate makes Sloon Brady look a little sus ngl

Sloonei wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 11:46 pm This is twice already that you’ve responded to token SlooneiProds by telling me essentially to knock it off. That’s not always an unfair response. My questions can be overbearing, and sometimes that’s partially the point. It was the first time. But this time I feel like I am asking a pair of straightforward and reasonable questions as part of an early dialogue in the game. I do not think my questions are vague at all, and I am not trying to be difficult.

You said you think Mac looks different than he usually does. I don’t see it and am asking for elaboration. Maybe there’s a linguistic divide here. I am struggling with your assertion that Mac “isn’t trying to be taken seriously” as part of your accusation. I see the behavior you are pointing to but I don’t see A) why it’s unusual for him, B) why he would need to be trying to be taken seriously as town, or C) what precisely it means if he is not trying to be taken seriously. There are lots of motives for floating less-than-serious reads on Day 0/1 of a game, for instance.
yea well i responded already in small chunks of posts after this, i pinged u
And I’m addressing part of that response here. This is not me trying to grill you, it is me trying to better understand your point of view.

Wait so are we playing Mafia here too?

See that's what i thought at first, but not quite sure tbh. JJJ keeps attacking me, and he's a mod. I don't think mods are supposed to be participating unless they were also given roles this game.

Maybe they're the multiball?

Okay, last off topic post for a while. I think the baddies bias towards the foods. I trust the meats

I think townread people who start memeing and scum read people who drag the joke

Tutuu look good, 122 looks ehh

From the food things Sloonei looks the worst

Sloonei, where did you get the nickname paprika btw?
