The Syndicate

Posting so that my ISO will yield results.

Also, hi game.

I'll save the host her breath and tell you all now, I am the mayor.

Voting Kyle for being green, and because I can't vote myself.

i am a mason and unless dunya decided to put every possible power role into this game, i think someone's been lying about their shit already.

Since you're the only person to claim mason, it must be you -_-

DrWilgy wrote: ↑Sat Jul 21, 2018 5:49 am It's likely Kyle is scum. No hard counters were put in place. No one even tried to deviate from the claims. Kyle's nonchalant attitude about it.

I'm glad we figured out the game already.

Did you redpeek him?

It was flung from the top of a sarcastic tree.

I like to banter a bit, then switch gears as the deadline approaches.

How about you?

That's because it is my fake role my dude.

POS cannot help us this game, we most vote the scummiest person in the world.

Is this claim more or less real than mine?

insertnamehere wrote: ↑Sun Jul 22, 2018 4:45 pm I'm 70% sure Wilgy is claiming Mason just to fuck with Kyle, who he's apparently decided to disagree with this game, apropos of nothing.

Wilgy's whole persona does seem quite different and more aggressive this game. Then again, if I were a scummeister, I certainly wouldn't be drawing so much attention to myself willingly. This is kinda what makes me suspect Marmot more, as he's laying low via irreverence ever since his mayor claim.

I wasn't laying low, I was surfing.

Oh wait, this is LYLO.

Here's my view on Mason-claiming.

I can see both masons role-claiming, that makes sense to me.

I could also see the scum team claiming mason, especially if they're on their game and get their claim out first. Why? It lights the fire under the real masons (if they exist) or it gives them a fair chance to clear themselves if their are no masons. But this only works if both scummates claim mason. If there's only one scum player claiming mason, we can sit back and watch what the players who claimed mason do.

But if there's a town claiming mason. Well, that's a possibility I won't ignore.

[mention]dunya[/mention] if you modkill sprityo and he's scum, do we win?

No.

But then our odds of lynching scum goes down?

what would be the purpose of doing that?

Because I get jealous when power roles have all the fun roleclaiming.

I'm talking about wilgy masonfaking, I don't see the benefit

your thing was different

Why do you believe Wilgy is lying over sprityo?

Marmot wrote: ↑Sun Jul 22, 2018 6:02 pmWhy do you believe Wilgy is lying over sprityo?

I don't believe that wilgy's early responses to my mason claim are consistent with what they would be if he was really the other mason. I pointed some of the problem posts out earlier

Well that was easy.

[VOTE: DrWilgy] aubergine

Kylemii and sprityo are on the same page voting Wilgy, so I feel pretty confident that they're the real masons. No one has defended Wilgy, nor counter-claimed mason aside from Wilgy.

I'll eat my hat if Kyle and sprityo are both scum though,

if wilgy is mafia then who is his teammate?

if wilgy isn't mafia and is just fucking around kinda recklessly, is there any other set of two players who could legitimately be paired together as mafia that doesn't include wilgy?

Devil's tinfoil hat. Wilgy is a loose townie and you and sprityo are baddies.

Both Wilgy and marmot are people who'll do things literally for the shits and giggles, fake roleclaims sitting pretty well in that definition. It's worrying that Wilgy is on the hot seat for a ?fake? role claim and Marmot is more or less being left alone for his. Why is this?

I did have two votes you know.

DrWilgy wrote: ↑Mon Jul 23, 2018 1:06 am So... now multiple people have called my thinking stupid. I guess that means I'm out. When people don't take the time to invest in discussion and rather just say "that's dumb" then there's no point in me playing any further.

How about question my thinking with serious prompt and try for a solution? Why would I think such a way from both perspectives. Line them up and ask questions instead of insulting thoughts.

I have most reason to believe that INH is the baddie we are looking for. I'm gonna vote there and go to bed. Goodnight loves.

[VOTE: INH] aubergine aubergine

I don't understand, do you believe both sprityo and Kyle are masons?

sprityo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 23, 2018 8:21 am INH votes marmot
Wilgy votes INH
Quin votes Wilgy
Marmot votes wilgy

Vote analysis tells me either wilgy is town or he’s scum with INH

Which wouldn’t make sense for him to push for INH

I think we should watch for anyone pushing against the Wilgy lynch (who's not a probable power role). If Wilgy is mafia, his teammate has no choice but to push against his lynch today, or at least point us elsewhere.

[mention]insertnamehere[/mention], where's your head?

Never mind, I was reading back, and I'd forgotten that TH claimed cop, and said that Kyle is green.

That's one less thing to worry about.

Day ends in 1.5 hours. I'm happy with the current tally.

It's against the rules.

Quin wrote: ↑Mon Jul 23, 2018 5:34 pm I'm phone posting because I don't wanna get out of bed

What are you going to post?

Yay team! High five Quin!

Over the last 6 months:

My mafia record when I post more than 150 times: 0-7
My mafia record when I post less than 50 times: 2-0

I think I'm noticing a trend here.

Thanks for the game dunya! Everyone looking at and voting Wilgy really helped us out on this one, taking any pressure off of the possibility of lynching inh, Quin or myself.

This could have been a reeeally fun game if Quin and I both claimed Mason too.

I keep telling people to lynch quiet marmot.

I knew that the Wilgy thing was driving the town off a cliff. I remember wilgy's "I'm a doctor with a red peek" day one lie as town, and never again canI see it as alignment-indicative when he does something insane.

I should clarify, that is not my record as mafia, but rather my overall mafia record.

Golden wrote: ↑Mon Jul 23, 2018 6:22 pm


That's not fair, I want more marmot in my life.

Technically "you" posted more than 150 times in hydra mafia and won.

But we all know you did all the heavy lifting and I just popped in at LYLO.

I found Kyle the scariest player to go up against in this game. The other folks that were confirmed town were much less active. Kyle was motivated and gunning pretty hard.

stop saying things like that if people get that sort of impression of me then I'm gonna have to start working hard :\

I wouldn't say I generally have that impression of you. I am not used to you supatowning so hard, and you were the most proactive about it.

DrWilgy wrote: ↑Tue Jul 24, 2018 3:51 pm So here's my follow up questions.

Why did I do what I did?

What did everyone learn from this game?

Whomever wishes, please let me know.

If nobody is defending the unanimous lynch, then he's obviously civilian.
