The Syndicate

So what were the arch villain win conditions?

I want that last section to be "kill powers" but there's an extra blank.

More Grodd: ..... during the game.

Possible Grodd text: Is immune to all....

Also, can you alignment claim?

So I'm going to be disappointed when I get to the end and don't know who everyone was and what they can do?

Just the janitored night deaths are a pretty massive change for me. Especially with so many factions, I'd at least prefer an autopsy of alignment, if not character.

Thoughts from the Syndicate on pluses and minuses of not having this knowledge, especially for vigilante kills?

Would have voted Epi over Llama at the end of Day 1.

Holy shit you guys can talk at night?!?

So, I know Epi is not my role.

If you are a civvie or a non-baddie, you also know that Epi is not that role as well.

It is then mathematically 100% certain that Epi is a baddie, since he can't be my role and (see above) he can't be any of your roles.

This logic is best logic.

The two mafia couples with their matching avatars and signup murder Pact are adorable.

Oh!

I generally view survivors as scum roles. In a situation where a survivor is the tie breaker vote, scum can strongarm the survivor into voting with them. This means that scum will always intentionally kill townies over survivors.

I tend to lynch survivors into silence. Let them take bullets for townies if possible and prevent them from switching sides in the endgame. The most pro town thing a survivor can do is pretend to be town.

How does this change when survivors can't claim? Can scum claim truthfully in the end game? Is a survivor here just a townie who is trying to not call attention to himself? Interested to see how this plays out.

Can I post here? I CAN post here.


I love to hear myself talk so I'm going to leave my notes here.

At first glance, this game appears unbalanced. Too few townies. Too many scum and survivors. However, inability to claim, no scum BTSC and at least two vigilante roles means a mass scum/neutral takeover is unlikely. As someone who has ran two Flash Rougues mafia games, I'm loving the theme of the roles and looking forward to reading them in full, along with a full explanation of the map. The whole letter thing is facinating.

As of mid Day 1, I am suspicious of Epi and Llama because I disagree with their scum hunting logic. However, I really dislike Elo's reaction to Epi's pressure.

I like LC and Dwarm's style. SVS and MM are running together in my head, possibly due to both asking a lot of questions and having animal avatars.

Refreshing to combine the more jokey day 1 of HCRealms with the more serious Day 1 of Mafia Universe.

More later, not that I expect anyone to see this.
