I don't see a post in which you claimed a protective ability prior to this post - does that exist?

Mayhaps you missed this claim when you killed Jack last night

I guess you wouldn't (need to include a previous mention), but why out yourself as some kind of a protector and not just do it? Which, you didn't anyway. Can you protect people every day?

Did JackofHearts claim a green there?

Speaking of which, how was he able to clear that many people? In my experience cops/seers can do one person per night. Is that inaccurate? Or does green peek mean something else?

It was only one.

oooooo okay. that makes sense then. so this game is not just thematically severance, but also mechanically severance. I didn't realize it was a newer show. I see adam scott is in it.

Has anyone brought up the theory that the counterpart may not be the same alignment?

Because I’m beginning to think some of us have doppelgängers that would be…bad.

Jay was very insistent and hopeful on having a large amount of players, which would be needed to make something like this possible.

I guess this would make sense - I don't know how large nor how long games on here tend to be, but if the game never reached parity or whatever wincon and didn't have any additional kills, at 4 deaths per cycle the game would go for 7 cycles. assuming parity is reached sooner, perhaps 4-5 cycles? just trying to reason through how that many deaths per cycle would make sense, and I think it does (?)

Do you have any reads in general that aren't requiring meta?

Aside from what I've stated, not really. I'm intrigued by nutella voting me.

I mean it comes off as awkward to me more then anything, but ppl have sussed this.

And besides this read on tutuu, potentialsheltervet really hasn't done a lot of solving this game, they have asked like a couple of questions though with 0 follow up so far

Fwiw (just in the future if this info might help you) - I believe syndicate demands 128x128 or 125x125 or 100x100 pixel size avatars max. It doesn't automatically resize it. So you could use Microsoft Paint or a website to resize and crop avatars for you. Phones can do it too.

You have to manually crop it down to the required pixel ratio. If you have like preview or some sort of app for your comp, you can do it pretty fast. Though it is annoying that they don’t automate
