The Syndicate

The goal every year is to compete for a Championship, so it's really special to be in this game. I'm really proud of everyone in this locker room. Up and down the roster, these guys and gals have worked their butts off to get to this point.

Shouldn't you be retired?

The goal is to play until I'm at 4500 posts.

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.

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.

Syn and Martin are not partners.

Is the "hidden significance" part serious?
Oh nvm I literally just saw the poll, I thought you meant votes on players. Rob should go to bed like a good little Rob.

What did you think I meant?

Gronk has already walked that path. He is a sage.

After seeing the above post, I, Thomas Edward Brady, have decided to retire from professional football, internet mafia, and all other forms of organized competition, effective immediately.

Hello
dropped the gimmick, lock mafia

Like I said earlier, I’m not here to talk about gimmicks. I’m here to compete and to win the Game of Champions.

Mac is mafia, actually.

you would know the answer to that, it's no, and that is why I called tutuu lock mafia for making this read. Her actual response should have been this.

"Maccy mac mac why u so blue. Turn dat frouwun upside douwun!!! :D:D"

So yeah lock mafia.

Mr. Dougall, I was asking tutii.

yes? extremely? look at his tone and how he's saying stuff that he doesn't believe in, and he adds a lot of "." at the end of his sentences, and he breaks down his posts to as short sentences as he can. it sounds very sarcastic and he isn't trying to sound serious

The affirmative answer and the subsequent description of Mac’s behavior do not align at all.

My read on nutella is in development. Check back in later.

i dont need to case it so much, you are asking way too much of me and i have no reason to put so much effort into answering such a vague question any further than i have

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.

Hyena wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 11:37 pm Okay, for real though? Sloonei is mafia. He's the only one that seems to not be joking around with any of us at the moment. He seems very uncomfortable at the moment, which I also take to mean that he doesn't have any teammates that are active right now. Make a note who's joking around right now.

I’m not here. This isn’t happening.

I've got my own reasoning why Mac feels different this game if you want to hear it.

Yes

Has anyone done a ranking of best dog names? That will be either top or bottom of the list.

@Jackofhearts2005 when you have a moment please

one of the very first theme ideas i ever came up with was fruits vs. veggies but i've never run it.

I'd like elaboration on these. I'm pretty firm town on sloonei but open to radish sus
Sloonei posted 2 robotic questions recently and I think these may come from scum.
I want to understand why you TR him.
Robotic questions is literally sloonei town meta

I won last year’s GoC as scum because I was able to believably hunt the other team to extinction. Multiball helps wolves in the thread, hurts them out of it.

Let's shorten this, tell me if you are scum or not and I will go to sleep. Pinky promise.

What do you think about Nutella 's perception of your meta and her read for you?
My 10% brain power can't think at more questions, but tomorow is another day.

I am not scum.

Nutella went through a long period of scum reading me all of the time, but now she mostly only does it when I’m actually scum. She’s one if the players I worry about most when I’m bad.

I think she is town.

They don’t get to control the kill every night, and they are at risk of being killed themselves every other night.

Just for the record, Sloonei I absolutely hate this post and if I did not have a record for refusing to acknowledge TMI reads I would be all up on you right now.
