The Syndicate

Are "infer" and "deduce" the same thing? Inferring involves making an educated guess as to someone's intent. Deduction involves applying general principles to reach a specific conclusion by eliminating possibilities that do not adhere to those principles (essentially, a POE). So...

[mention]sprityo[/mention] see above. I should've Mentioned you there.

So sprit, Jay has made a case against you. Cool, whatever. Tbh, at this point in the game, I don't care about Jay's case. For the purposes of my vote, you could 100% ignore it for now and I wouldn't bat an eye. WHat I do wanna know is, who do you think was teamed with Alien and Robot. I figure we ne...

Let’s go for a flawless game!

Any reaction to J’s accusations above?

LOL abyssum. My guilt is mostly assuaged.

Also, 100% everything JJJ just said.

Haha, thanks everyone. Things I need clarified: What "TMI" and "CFD" are. What a "godfather" is. I guess that's all. I feel like this whole thread is just waiting for today to be over. too much information (when a mafioso is more revealing in their content than they int...

Things I need clarified:

I guess that's all. I feel like this whole thread is just waiting for today to be over.

i could stake my reputation on Mac and Luna being town in this game because i don't have any reputation to speak of. BAM I was unclear from your previous posts - is this based on Luna's tone, her interactions with Alien, or a combination of the 2? SHe's been slightly pingy to me at times (although ...

Points about sprit are interestng. I always shy away form thinking civvies have caught 2 baddies on D1; I've seen it suggested a lot but never seen it really happen (unless of course 1 baddie tries SUPER hard to save the other and basically outs themselves). Sprit was 3rd possible lynch train behind...

Dammit! I get back fomr camping and my whole post is lost. Beautiful. Robot The gist of it was this: I agree with the case. Robot was my 2nd highest suspect after Alien, and that was before the flip and before JJJ's sleuthing on the interactions. Some things I'm worried about: 1) No palpable resista...

It became more conclusive as alien was forced to expand on and answer for the accusation, as he backtracked on it hard. He wanted no part of his own bullshit, probably due in no small part to the severity of the response he got from Mac himself. Wait, now you believe this? You literally called me o...

Oh! I almost forgot. I will miss the vast majority of D2, because I will be at my parents' new cabin, where there is no internet, for the weekend. I should be back in time to vote, at least. I'm very glad Alien is bad, because if I led his lynch and then peaced for D2 I would be next for sure. XD Da...

What bothers me the most, in this game so far, is that i keep feeling like your Input slot is connected directly to your Garbage bin, bypassing your Consideration drawer entirely, if that awful analogy makes any sense. By the way, this was probably my favorite post of today. I might put it in my si...

haha for real though, good work everyone! So excited, I'm beaming!!

Linki: ....haha to be fair, MP, I think you're case convinced more ppl than mine. Just want my due! MP AND RUSS FOREVAH!
Double linki: hahaha ty Tsaiah.

What bothers me the most, in this game so far, is that i keep feeling like your Input slot is connected directly to your Garbage bin, bypassing your Consideration drawer entirely, if that awful analogy makes any sense. Yeah, again, don't mind me over here.....definitely didn't ISO him and vote him ...

This.

And WOOOOOOOO!!!!!

MP, how are you locktown? It was my wagon! First abyssum takes my captaincy of Team Mac, now you steal my bandwagon cred too? Did I even do anything today??

Like, as fast as possible, just down the player list and "TOWN, SCUM, TOWN, TOWN, SCUM" etc.

I am going to feel like an ass if this is an ML, but god dammit, you know what, we really have exhausted the fuck out of these Day 0 and Day 1 cycles. Thanks so much for the incredible effort, everyone. It really is appreciated. You all are an absolute pleasure. As far as Day 1 lynches go, I'm feel...

RUSSTI'S SOLICITED, APPROPRIATELY-TIMED RAINBOW LIST (ALMOST THE END OF DAY 1): (within each tier, people are listed as civviest to least civ) (for reference, Lunalee is a VERY slight positive read) (she'll switch negative if she doesn't move her vote and/or say something by EOD, though) M Plus 7 ab...

I don't like that Mac is still Top 3, or really even that there's a one-vote separation in the top 3 tbh. [mention]Lunalee[/mention], remind me why you're voting Mac? Who else do you suspect currently?

Regarding Mac's Robot push above, for me that's where GTH falls apart. Yeah, GTH I'd put Alien and Robot as both scum, but my read on Alien is much stronger. Thus my vote stays.

@Russtifinko Abyssum is already on Team Mac. Come join us. Apparently somehow I am a consensus town read among a list of players including Jay, MP and sprityo my loudest detractors. How great. That's what I'm saying! She can't "already" be there before me, because I was there first. Hmph....

I am not Mafia for being hair brained Jay. Hair brained logic and whacky strategies are not part of my mafia meta. Mac has written 'whacky' rather than 'wacky' in this sentence. as you all know, 'whack' is often used colloquially to mean to murder or kill (i.e., "He got whacked by the mob"...

Man, I gotta say - the GTH's are very helpful from a reading/catch-up perspective as well. I liked Marmot's entrance to the thread; I kinda thought he was gonna slink through D1 all quiet-like. It's a good look; keep it up dude! I haven't heard much from Luna, Robot, Tsaiah, or TH today. The weirdes...

This post in which mac goes through individually his options he put forth for an information lynch, he backs up how that will benefit the town as a whole and I thought that looked good on him Do you think we should follow the advice he laid out in that post? I think its a valid option, and technica...

Marmot is back!!!

JJJ, I looked back at X-Men (which was hilarious, btw, because the sock had all been reused for the Friends Mafia game. It looks like Mac wasn't in that one, so idk what I was on about.

I could swear I've gone after Mac HARD for being him across mutliple day periods, though.

Can we also talk about Robot? Please? What does everyone think of her? Yes, let's! I liked Robot at first, and haven't as much lately. So we are lynching Alien day 1. Welcome new guy. Time 2 die. Sooo, I actually do feel super bad about this. But Alien, Robot, and you seem to be the top 3 suspect. ...

No. But we’ve played probably no more than 4 games together previously, and we’ve fought about it in half or more of them. I think it was X-Men where I literally went after him for days on end over it. Turns out we were both good iirc r u shore I looked into this Mac/Russ dynamic that MP mentioned....

I had to skip 4 pages to get here. I’ll go back for those, but in the meantime: can someone tell me why we’re lynching Mac for doing Mac things?? Mac literally always proposes information lunches and lynching low posters. I’ve fought with him about it in multiple games. I hate the ideas, but I’ve l...

You know what Upon reflection I also wonder if Mac like knows Russ v Alien is town v town Go back and look at what he said to Russ yesterday This suddenly makes a lot of sense What do you mean? Posting from phone. What did he say that indicates this. also did no one notice DH’s slip?? :omg: :omg:

#freeMac #justMacthings

that makes zero sense. your scum tendencies are not my scum tendencies. But that's why I said those tendencies are some you may be using. and questions aren't just a tailored strategy for dampening my civ meta to be achievable as mafia, they're actually a useful tool for understanding shit. That's ...

Appreciate the list. I see I’m now mafia because I’m after you - cool. I actually agree with you on Marmot, though; aby said 8 and I was like “Wait, not 0??” And I actually feel like you have some tangible reads you can be held accountable for now, instead of just brunch and accusations-that-aren’t-...

Oh yay, Alien did a rainbow list literally while I was asking for it! It’s like Christmas! Thanks!

:haha: at Alien quoting my post. Also, did that run beat MP for most posts in a row? Mac, JJJ, thanks for the feedback. I don’t think Alien’s defense just now holds any water. I think there’s enough there that I’m leaving my vote on Alien. Alien, one point you didn’t address directly in my ISO is th...

Oh my god I'm so tired after that case. I'm signing off for the night. Vote Alien (or tell me why I'm a moron).

Now, I need the rest of the thread's help. Sanity check: am I insane for thinking there's no good reason to point out a scumslip, waffle on it, and then say you never thought it was a scumslip in the first place? Is Alien just asking lots of questions because he's super friendly, has just it it off ...

infected_alien_8 ISO by Russti The Good: I went into this read thinking Alien was backing off from every suspicion. That's actually not entirely the case. He's stuck to his MP guns all game so far, and he expressed a definite (positive) opinion about Colin pretty early on (even if he did later forg...

I did come out of feeling damn good about Russ. Reading his measured opinion in the middle of that shitstorm was like the feeling you get from hugging your mother. And LMAO I felt that same way. I hesitate to say it's too alignment indicative but I liked it as well as far as him being town as well ...

Oh wow, there were like 2 pages of linki that didn't even show up when I posted, the linkitis was so bad. Oops. Anyone know when/why Turnip Head voted for Alien? The only non-meme-y posts he's made so far were to question Luna on why she felt she was an "easy townie lynch". Alien questione...

It's real good to have Russti back :eek: :D Goodie two-shoes: Jay, MP, Russ Unsure, have points in both: Mac, Luna (tone-read), RobotNerd (tone-read) Null: TH, Kyle, Marmot, Tsaiah and I guess DH. My only experience was in FWWM where DH was much less combative (literally building a coalition on D1 ...

Feel free to ask me questions/get @me about my list! I'd like to hear your thoughts on Robot and Turnip Head, please. Robot seems to be genuinely engaging with the thread and posting with substance. I liked the point he raised about people making themselves integral to town (although I disagreed wi...

Feel free to ask me questions/get @me about my list!

Jay I am dying over the vocaroo. Thank you for that. Google searching for "russtifinko macdougall" only shows Talking Heads. We were scum teammates in that game. Russ was our last survivor. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the only game you both were scummates. Fucking loved hosting that game ...

Oh good, my kamehameha on the septuple linki worked.

How is this happening? We're not even near a voting deadline. :haha

@abyssum -- ISO @Infected_alien8_ @JaggedJimmyJay @RobotNerd277 @Russtifinko plz also tell me ur history? I changed my mind on Kyle again. I don’t like this post. Even if he receives thorough responses from each of these people about their “history”, I have my doubts that he’d be likely to apply it...

Russ - Light Town because their posts accusing me felt genuine actually I am inclined to disagree on this one. I found Russ's take on your proposed Mac slip to be convoluted, in that the variables he introduced (primarily the relationship/experience you've had or not had with MacDougall) to be of s...

I didn't say I thought he slipped, I said I thought he possibly slipped, and that I didn't think it was genuinely a slip myself because he seemed Town other than that and my gut says it wasn't, but I wanted to point it out anyway to see if anyone else made anything of it. I didn't want to act like ...

I actually really like this point. When I'm a baddie, I tend to triple- or quadruple-read my posts and edit endlessly to avoid being caught. (This is probably why I vote earlier as a baddie - posting under pressure is that much more stressful.) I guess the fact that scum slips occur means either 1)...
