The Syndicate

I have this coupon from Mac that says I can slank for a round.

Where do I cash it in?

Bronana ooh na na.

Half of my heart is in bronana ooh na na.

Can confirm.

And if Kaz says I'm scum you can't trust him.

I would do this.

Root veggies unite. Potatoes not allowed.

Oh I'm all alone here eh?

That's fine. Don't need you guys anyway.

No too late I'm gone.

I can't handle this anymore. I'm walking out.

*door slams*

*walks back in*

I just can't quit you.

I'll join my good buddy Kaz.

Can I join?

I'll allow it.

I generally play so that the townie people live long and the scummy people become the elims, but I guess some would say I have an unusual style of play.

Townana ooh na na.

I'll stop now.

I agree but we need a few cool cats to popularise it before the wider mafia population buys in. People are followers when it comes to terminology.

Let's mislim it up this game.

I'm a bit disappointed I'm not a triumvir with Turnip Head as well as Carrot.

We'd be such a healthy, hearty triad.

Nutella would be our mortal enemy. Too sweet.

Do we have to start doing reads or can I shitpost some more?

You can, but as we have established, I am the judge.

Okay, next question.

What are reads?

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 3:27 pm Tutuu doesn’t care that a distorted jar of paprika is asking her a million questions. I think that’s town.

There are a lot of people playing the 'too cool to care' card though.

(I'm the only one actually too cool to care, of course.)

Okay serious question though.

Sloonei, if you're thinking nutella could be a wolf, are you going to stay in a triumvirate with her?

I notice no one went for 'The Chastity'.

I see you guys.

like what do you mean by die of your groups not filled? do you think that people not in groups get modkilled or st? it'd seem weird to punish two active players for an inactive. pls explain this post I dont get it

yeah but like that line to me reads like "don't try any funny business by being 4th member of a full team, or staying in a 1-person vanity team when there's a perfectly fine 2-player team to join" Like punishing someone for something pretty much out of their control would feel really weird.

The line wouldn't be there if there wasn't punishment IMO, but who knows.

I take this to mean you did get Moth's post you just didn't agree with his conclusion?

I dunno. I wouldve expected people to say im in my scum meta, or that im memeing too much or that im overdoing it with my antics. But instead people are just arguing im objectively scummy which is really strange.

'Memeing too much'.

I don't understand.

you could flip this and ask me the same thing but I wouldn't be sure tbh

kinda just inertia-stuck on the option I chose and I like it and I like LC so whatever maybe it'll be fun and interesting to be in a trio with a scumread (who also mutually scumreads me)

Is it weird I think you both could be right about each other but I'm not sure which one is yet?

moth wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 4:44 pm I dont know what the nutella sloon "thing" is. I noticed early nutella was just kinda commenting on NAI stuff. then bronana and nutella talked about sloon being in a weird indiscernable meta where hes doing something new. I probably would say its not w/w/w. At most id say theres 1 wolf among nutella, zack and sloon. Looked more like people being naturally skeptical of each other. this is one of my few arguments for nutella being town

I can't speak to bronanack, but Sloon and Nutella were meta-reading each other. E.g. Sloonei has a very analytical and methodical style of townplay, and his scum game tends to fake it quite well but maybe just lacks some conviction. I can't speak to Nutella's scum game because I've not see it, but I know others revere it in the sense that it can be difficult to distinguish it from her town game.

Both feel the other has therefore been inauthentic so far based on meta.

I think.

Anyway, if they remain uncertain of each other like this I'd be willing to wager there's a wolf between them. I think if they're both town they're going to find each other sooner rather than later.

Hey guys did you notice this? I think moth slipped and meant that last bit for scumchat.

Let's lim him.

moth wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 4:50 pm I guess my strong TR on KZA and Mac has faded a bit. they could be clowns just lurking the thread. I thought it was gonna be different though

As the only person with any proper meta on Kaz, so far so good there. He's in a new environment though so TBC.

Mac can do clowny as scum as well as town. NAI for him.

The Radish has not inspired me this game.

Great moments are born from great opportunity. And that's what you have here tonight, boys. That's what you've earned here tonight.

One game. If we played 'em ten times, they might win nine. But not this game. Not tonight. Tonight, we skate with them. Tonight, we stay with them. And we shut them down because we can! Tonight, WE are the greatest hockey team in the world.

You were born to be hockey players. Every one of you. And you were meant to be here tonight. This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearing about what a great hockey team the Soviets have. Screw 'em. This is your time.

Now go out there and take it.

Are you inspired yet?

How should I feel about this

Blazing it in the a.m.? You should feel she's a legend.

Has anyone asked tutuu yet if they're a power role.

Just an FYI, I do intend to play this game seriously. Some day. Just...not right now. Busy drowning in work. (I didn't think the game would start so soon.)

I can do lazy GTH reads if anyone wants, but they'd be kind of worthless at this point.

Lay it on me brother.

Without double checking things, just impressions:

Townie:
Moth - because he just doesn't seem to care how he comes across
tedxtr - being insightful yet a bit cautious (in a good way) in his outlook on the people he's interacted with
KZA - meta read; we've played together plenty and he sounds comfortable here
tutuu - perhaps mistaking 'fun' for 'townie' but I like them so far

Townie I guess?
bronana - mainly based on presence; not sure I've yet seen anything that makes me slot you higher than this
Nook - slanking D1 is his MO; when I scummed with him he was in the background but always nudging things in certain directions on D1, and he's not doing that here
TSP - responding to a big post with just 'bad' is vintage TSP
Mac - seems jovial enough to be town, but nothing that isn't fakeable tbh

Hmmmmm:
Nutella & Sloonei - tbh I kind of want to agree with both of them; meta-wise, neither has yet convinced me I'm seeing the town version of themselves (but I'm not calling this w/w) - needs further observation
Marcher - seems to be forcing things
Carotenoid - seems a bit hesitant, like putting a toe in the water but not fully committing yet

Not going to force anyone into a scum read.

Not going to comment on anyone else even though I've noticed them post a few times, e.g. Lissa, Turnip Head, etc. If I don't have solid meta I'm not going to hedge a read until I think about it properly.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 2:48 pm Talk some more about kza, Señor Radish.

Swell guy.

Likes anime.

Was once a cactus.

Has a strong town game, and, in fact, is the resident expert on Canucks.com at finding scum in D1. (Lately, he hasn't lived very long after that.) Doesn't rand scum often and it is his weaker alignment to play.

Until Champs this year, where he was unjustly misyeeted D1 because of culture clash, he hasn't played off site as far as I know. Thus I expect him to come into this game...not hesitant or anything, but perhaps a little less sure in himself than when on familiar ground. He won't be able to rely on meta, which forms a vital core of his strong D1 reads on CDC.

So far he's been light and breezy but trying to poke a bit, albeit maybe not effectively. But basically he seems comfortable enough considering he's surrounded by strangers, some of whom have a bit of a pedigree.

(There is a bit of a chance his scum game will be better here because of those same factors, of course.)

because i think it helps coordinate reads, but i don't want that to happen too early in the day.

I mean, more often than not we do these things naturally. I don't see why you needed to announce it.

radishes has 48 posts. that's a good chunk. since i've been on, apart from the failed GTH exercise, he's been posting mostly fluff stuff. what do you make of him in this game?

Can I answer...?

How the F did I get to 50 posts anyway. Like, what have I been saying? I don't remember any of it. :/
