So we can claim but shouldn’t all claim at once? What is flavor claim? I prefer strawberry over vanilla

I just tried to “Like” nutella’s post but realized that function isn’t available on Syndicate for at least another few years

Did your past self meet you? If not, then this can't happen.

There's only three plausible options:

1) There is a singular universe, and so your experience of the past is exactly what happened; or
2) There is a multiverse, in which case if you meet a version of yourself from the past, that person is not you; or
3) There will be plot holes in your life story.

Don't forget, retrocausality is about the future effecting the past. So, it's possible you could create the multiverse, but it's also entirely possible that the point of this game is to demonstrate that retrocausality is an illusion designed to keep you pacified.

This was rather my point.

If you can't even remember he played U-Pick and I don't know what affiliation he was, why is his quietness suspicious if he wasn't bad in that game?

I can only conclude from this that you have no suspects.
But really, how can anyone have suspects on day 1?

RIGHT?? Day 1’s are like those big bridges- no one knows how to build them, but we cross em regardless

However this question warrants no reasonable answer and so I must take you down a few notches on my watch loop

I’m not ‘subtly’ doing anything. If someone says behaviour is suspicious and lynchworthy, but it’s that persons normal behaviour, I’ll point it out every time, and there’s nothing subtle about it. Epi was just posturing anyway (looking to see who would take the bait).

Policy lynch zeph if you want, but don’t pretend it’s anything other than that.

But how do you know what “normal” is? How many gamed have you played with Zyph to attribute normalcy to any of his play?

I guarantee you I’ve never taken day one suspicion in any of them, though. I’ve been lynched day one many times in my mafia career. Town every time. This time would be no different.

It only takes one counter example to be bullshit logic.

Also who said it was a policy lynch? I vote because I think it’s suspicious. If that’s policy lynch, then so be it.

There doesn’t have to be and this isn’t it.

Your suspicion is as baseless as it was in upick. You have no actual reason to suspect me.

Using the word subtle to describe what I did with Zephyrus is intentional misrepresentation.

lol it’s D1. Of course it’s baseless. There’s no base, so I’m a blind baby placing the first block.

Golden wrote:If you can't even remember he played U-Pick and I don't know what affiliation he was, why is his quietness suspicious if he wasn't bad in that game?

Just subtle enough to reason out that his quietness or what-have-you shouldn’t be suspicious because he wasn’t bad in that game.

Do you think that that absolves him from being bad?

[VOTE: scotty] aubergine

Because there’s no way in hell your suspicion of Zephyrus or linking him to me is genuine.

As a policy lynch it’s consistent with normal town scotty. I might even buy it if you said it just had aspects of a policy lynch but there was a small suspicion. Scotty likeslynchinv low posters early.

But not apolicy lynch at all? Genuine suspicion based of a single early day zero post? There is nothing true about that - not from you, or epi, or anyone ever.

Civ metas are bullshit, yellow man.
I guess you could say i would policy lynch no-posters, but low posters I need to actually find something sus in. I don’t necessarily see that as the prescribed “policy lynch”
