The Syndicate

i think sanmateo struggling to shake nagging concerns about me is usually a town-tell.

Bass_the_Clever 2. Just so you know I really don't pull quotes. But my suspects so far are- - Elo because she voted someone she felt good about and gave a lame excuse. She acted like she knew his game and unless she has played with him somewhere else golden just started playing on this site and has...

acrosstheaether I don't want to be replaced anymore. Now that the SK is out of the way, no need to speculate about alignments of NKs :cloud9: glad you're back. :beer: sorry that i have to be all accusatory now, but I disagree about the notion that Elo's flip should be treated as a townie lynch thou...

you said last night something along the lines that you always tried to coordinate with other players before placing a vote

psst... check the tally

sanmateo wrote:where the coordinating at?

what do you mean?

i think we can pretty safety state now that MM and Sloonei were both town. if that is somehow off-base, someone say so. with that in mind, here again are the players primarily suspected at various points in his post history: i reviewed all of MM's posts to see what insights i could dig up. and i cam...

Not advised tbh

too late. but why not?

oh yeah that reminds me, Sloonei may have been trending toward a mafia lean on TH too at the end there.

FWIW: I am going to dip my toes in the rainbow game for the very first time now. I hope you're all as excited as I am for this. JaggedJimmyJay - I find myself agreed with much of what Jay is saying so far, which is usually a good sign. I could do a more thorough ISO later on if I feel it's necessary...

well i just placed my vote for DDL

RIP Sloonei. great syndicate debut

and of course that one is screwed up too. screw it maaaaan

nobody has talked more about WIFOM in this game than you have, and that has been a mostly unprovoked talking point. so its relevance to you is resultant of your own insistence on that.[/quote]

It wasn't to defend myself. But I noticed the post would also look as an attempt to defend myself. And a terrible, WIFOM-like one. So in an attempt to defuse that, I made the paragraph about WIFOM. So I honestly ask that you don't perceive that as an attempt of mine to defend myself from a lynch. O...

It depends on the content. would you say the sort of content you've provided in your last few posts is representative of the sort of content which would increase the probability? I would say my last few posts have merely paved the way for such content. how much would it irk you if i analyzed all of...

the UK is wonderful. i never want to leave. when the time comes to leave, they'll have to drag me away kicking and screaming. but that's no slight on Ohio. i have fond memories of home. Go Bengals. How much longer can you stay for? I am not looking forward to the Visa process again but I think I ha...

1) What caused you to leave Ohio? Why the UK? i'm in the US Air Force. my first duty station was in Las Vegas, and my second/current station is here in the UK.[/quote] 2) What is your favorite Rush album? Rush song? i'm not especially interested in Rush music *gets banned*, but back in my prog phas...

if anyone has any facts to offer right now that can be revealed within the boundaries of the rules and without exposing a player needlessly, let's have 'em. i like facts too, but they're a rare commodity.

there's still a decent chance to hit a baddie simply by randomizing. This isn't true, Mr. Facts It is if everyone randomizes. Obviously if someone gets more than one vote it's possible that whoever voted for them didn't actually randomize. Which is why we should always aim at a tie where nobody get...

This isn't true, Mr. Facts

Would you agree, Vompatti, when i say that baddies are generally misunderstood and should be allowed to hang out with the rest of the townies? Even if they kill people sometimes

Turnip Head wrote:I'm just saying let's keep vote manipulation from guns and butter in mind going forward.

very good point. i'd not considered that and i should have.

While we're talking about dangerous assumptions, maybe we should have a discussion about mathematical impossibilities, guns, and butter. :ponder: That sounds fun. :llama: Spoken like a true accountant. No thanks But there's going to be a quiz! i'm not sure what you're talking about, but if it invol...

My suspicion of aether has been growing. Like I said before I don't see how every role not being revealed is enough to want to quit a game when you guys have a role that hides role reveals. So that is a possibility. I also brought up earlier how I believe mafia likes to comment on roles and the lik...

MP - I'm sure the baddies speculate, but if they didn't figure it out then it's handing them information on a silver platter. Not everyone is good at figuring out who is what role. I just don't see any point in helping them out. Plus if everyone in the thread comes to the conclusion that a certain ...

and how about a ranking of Radiohead songs?

https://rateyourmusic.com/list/JaggedJi ... favorites/

i rank everything ever.

- What's your favorite role you've ever had? RYM Game #26 (Half-Life theme) - i was G-Man, self-aligned. i had one of the most overpowered roles ever, but thankfully i didn't win with it. i just caused mayhem, laughed my ass off, and died. my abilities: ~ PGO - any attempt to night kill me would fa...

Missing Person wrote:Who are the best 5 mafia players that you don't think people know about or give enough credit?

since my experience is limited to RYM other than the current side mission here and the champs game, i can only speak about members there:

Sloonei
MrMungbean
MacDougall
ProFiction
dunya

i'd like to echo a point made by sanmateo and Sloonei. DDL has put a lot of work into describing why he wouldn't play the way he has played as mafia. and in so doing, he has acknowledged the WIFOM nature of that mindset. this would make him a very self-aware mafioso. but wait, what if he is very sel...

aether, who are your suspects?

I recently listened to my favorite Radiohead, (OK Computer). What is your favorite track from that album, and to what character in the "Paranoid Android" music video do you most relate? :) My OK Computer track is definitely "Let Down". I think the best moment of the album is at ...

could you point to an example of distinct serial killer hunting and non-mafia hunting?

oh geeze, i had no idea that answer had gotten so big. i'm sorry i am ridiculous

How did you feel about the non-rc during the CFD on day 2 in your Champions game? i was particularly surprised that neither of the lynch candidates involved roleclaimed. saposhiente (mafia) kind of just glided on to her death, and Verbal (cop) showed great restraint when he was almost offed at the ...

Metalmarsh89 wrote:Do you have time to step away from mafia to be interrogated?

oh yes. and one i receive enough questions i'll do full ISOs on everyone interrogating me.

I disagree about the notion that Elo's flip should be treated as a townie lynch though. Many people (including myself) would have been town, and read her behaviour as generally anti-town , rather than a mafia-tell in particular. I have a distinct memory of an RYMer making the exact same point about...

i didn't say lynch him.

so in the event that Vompatti is mafia, what are we supposed to do about that? let's do what we must to resolve that.

Same point here. Why throwing a vote that has no chance of changing anything? i'll start by referring you to an earlier post. sanmateo asked me a similar question, and this was my response: http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=620&p=145211#p145211 the reason i chose Elohcin...

Also JJJ, I wish I could have took part in your game, but I wasn't online at the time. Is it too late to post my reads? I wanna make some points first though. by all means, let's see them. no neutrals allowed. i can't include your reads in the table though. the rapid-fire setup is the whole point.

You guys really think that both me and BR are bad? in truth i wasn't thinking much about how compatible any two mafia might be when i named mine. i just spat out base reads without thinking. but i am not sure i would call you and BR incompatible. i could see some potential for bussing since you've ...

It's probably good that I had to run off to dinner. Because I saw JJJ's initial post and got really super-frustrated. But now I've calmed down quite a bit and can explain. 1) As to why I ducked out so quickly, I had to leave to help finish getting dinner ready. We ate, conversed, and even threw in ...

one takeaway for me here is that i need to have some cajones and decide on some suspicions. 11T and 3M is obviously not correct, and i'd rather be wrong in the other direction more like MP.

nope. shrinking it.

hopefully this thing works

do you have any reason to believe there's a punishment for missing a vote? people here have said it's frowned upon, and it seems to be the primary measuring stick for the "Participation Score" thing. i'm used to you dropping a vote wherever you feel is right, i think the fact that like ha...

i really don't feel as certain that jay is town as i usually do (i've never played him as scum for longer than 1 day) but he was a bit too reserved with his vote for someone who suspected elo consistently since before she was the main suspect. http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&...

i should state that since i haven't done that very many times, i haven't really determined its efficacy. it's an experiment more than anything.
