The Syndicate

Hey c-bob, why would you misdirect a player who has an ability to kill?

I'm not going to explain my thought process for my night actions. I'd rather be more unpredictable.

You can have the actual targets I picked. That information should suffice.

Day 4 and we need material
I targeted you each of the first two nights. Kenway last night.
Any particular reason for targetting me? im not exactly present in the first 3 days, i didnt contribute hardly anything, and you couldve targetted epi who has been much more active i the thread if you were choosing me purely for being a doctor role.

I thought Epignosis was mafia on Day 1.

I targeted you each of the first two nights. Kenway last night.

I then forgot to play said mafia game until sprityo reminded me.

I watched Jack's new avatar like 300 times before I remembered that I came here to play a mafia game.

You said you were sure Bob was bad. I'm still curious to why.

I've just been too lazy to develop any of my other reads.

speedchuck wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2018 3:31 pm Regarding the poll...

Who would you rather have in charge of the mafia? A non-player, a potential replacement, or someone actually fighting alongside you in the game? Think about it.

Or choose Sloonei. He's in bed with me anyway.

You're still like 600 posts behind your predecessor so the choice is obvious. :3

LONG CON IS DED. HE WAS THE BEST OF US, HE WAS THE BLURST OF US.

Five of these people are mafia.

colonialbob
Dragon D. Luffy
DrWilgy
Epignosis
gwilikers6
Iron_Dwarf
Kenway
Kites
Kylemii
lapluie
Marmot
nutella
Quin
rundontwalk
sig
speedchuck (dunya)

Just making a list of living players for reference.

Mafia, who do you plan on killing tonight?

I want to make sure not to target the same person.

rundontwalk wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2018 10:37 pm Let's lynch Marmot tomorrow

I just submitted my nightkill of you.

I also just leveled up.

Better luck next time.

Do you guys want to talk about anything aside from the civilians being doomed?

Like what about the fact that colonialbob is scum but is still alive and playing?

Why are people bemoaning how doomed the civilians are? It's been three phases. This started with more people than Mortal Kombat, the same number of mafia, no independents (MK had two), and the first mafia member in MK wasn't lynched until Day 5. Granted the civilians lost ultimately, but it was a toss-up until the end.

I don't get the fatalism.
I'd love the figures of how many times civs have won the game having not killed a Mafia by Day 4. Mafia wins the game most of the time as it is, let alone when we don't get one early. I'd say it'd be in the realms of 1/100.
How large is the field? If you're talking 13 players, civilians are done, sure. In something of this size, with a plethora of powers in play, fatalism is bullshit.
I disagree. If anything I think it's easier in small games to come back against a shitty early game because the percentage of people spewing bullshit into the thread is lower so the power of POE is higher. Tree Mafia is good example. The Mafia team having to exist in the thread together for as long as they did made it easier to see the connections towards the end of the game. In a game of this complexity the connections are much more muddied.

As an aside, what is your intention for making this statement exactly?

The mafia team in that game grew lazy.

A lazy mafia team doesn't lose that situation nearly every time.

Oh my god!! Look at

what crazy things
I

Okay.

Y'all tell me who you want me to kill next night phase, and then tell me if you think it's worth using that kill if it roleblocks and level-blocks every other civilian.
Hell no.

Up your lynch game. It's better than a nightkill.

Jay did not up his lynch game.

nutella wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2018 4:06 pm can I also ask what people's reasonings are for the recruitment poll? @speedchuck @Marmot @Dragon D. Luffy why Kenway?

He's cute and a civilian and a mage.

Who else should I vote?

Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2018 3:08 pm Cuz Gwilkers claimed to have x2 vote power when voting for a baddie.

So either he is BSing us, or ID is a civ, or there is another ability in play. The last is unlikely since the host just gave away that there was only one vote manioulation ability in this lynch.

It's not just a claim right? It's part of his actual ability.

That's what my secret ability does.

I don't plan on using it anytime soon.

Let Prince Rico and Lord Sloonei fight for the stuffed teddy!

Lord Sloonei needs a challenger, no?

I am often wiling to die when I am not mafia. See Fiddler on the Roof Mafia.

Oh I see.

rdw, your suspicion is vague. What is it you think I'm doing?

:Linki oh this got lost in linki. Reposting 15 minutes later.

dunya may set the post record despite subbing out on Day 2. :O

I don't care if we lynch Jay.

What I don't understand is Kyle's reason for not lynching Jay.

i townread him initially because with him and dunya breaking shit down it felt like vocaroo mafia again, or maybe Mortal Kombat.... but the players he's built cases on.... don't really make sense as players that would be the top choices for mafia. he reminds me of how we were still the end of Mortal Kombat when we were pretending to care about who got lynched in the near-endgame phases but we really didn't. With Made and all that.

Still.... Jay is a valuable asset if civ. I think it'd be worth using a sink or swim tactic, if it can be properly coordinated, if not using gwilikers' monk vote then we could coordinate a sage cleric combo thing and accomplish something similar, though that has more potential for tampering
Here's the thing. You just made the argument that Jay's arguments don't make sense, and that he reminds you of a Jay in another game that doesn't care who gets lynched.

If he is posting all of this as civilian, doesn't that counter your primary reason for not lynching him?
no? what are you saying here

The behaviour you described that Jay is exhibiting in this game I would deem not useful and scummy. You also say that Jay is a valuable asset if civ.

If Jay is exhibting said behaviour as a civilian, is he being an asset?

Linki: I am Kyle, give me a second.

I don't have a reason to lynch Jay. Or Iron_Dwarf for that matter.

Why should either of them die?
Who do you want to lynch instead?

Day 2 me wanted to lynch colonialbob.

Day 3 me still feels the same way.

Sorry, work caught up with me, so I am not caught up on the game

I don't have a reason to lynch Jay. Or Iron_Dwarf for that matter.

Why does DrWilgy have votes?

I'll give thoughts when I find them (feel free to link them).

Still 6 more pages of Day 2 to read. I'll be in and out as I make my catchup.

And also, hi colonialbob. How are you?

She's not reading all of the posts and it very much behind.

She likely had to look up what that word was (I did) and is calling it "the eggplant."

She has no idea what's going on.

I also don't think anybody picked her to be bad.

I find it strange that you of all people would make this assertion when you asked everyone to make a list of players they would select for mafia.

Lapluie didn't receive 0 votes either.

What's your point?
