The Syndicate

The reason why I have such an issue with gfish is because from what I can tell, they are a smart person. I personally had a thought similar to them and almost asked "who would you be sad about being lynched?" But then I realized I wouldn't gain anything from this. Gfish thinking they coul...

To extrapolate further, I highly doubt any member of a faction is going to nominate a member of their own faction as their MOST townie read. Instead, they will likely choose a person that they genuinely believe is town. I would then disjunction possible scum connections in this manner. Effectively ...

Updated Here is an idea. (I post them as I think of them) Post ONE player you think is likely town. Very simple. If you say yourself, I vote for you. mine: colonialbob.

Bob, since you're here, let's talk. What are your current reads and why? Literally any reads you have, even if very slight. Sighhhhh had a whole post of reads get eaten. Will come back to this, promise. Sorry, playing on mobile st work sucks sometimes. :fist: Ok, Reads as of this post, minus the gf...

Heh. I'll mark that in JoH's favor.

Who is here from the realms with a different name?

gfishfunk - then again, its my list. colonialbob - throwing out a lot of reads and observations. Thats good. thellama73 Dyslexicon S~V~S Adam - little content but some participation. I read this as semi-townish Dom Silver Lantern - far too quiet, but posting right now as I preview my post I really ...

<SNIP> There is a surprising lack of postage, and even more so, votage! And voltage for that matter. People that has posted and I remember stuff from that gives me any type of feeling is Bob, Jack, Nut, LC and MP. MP's clearing of Bob is a bit huh. I agree with Nut on that.

Bob is by my estimation the best HCRealms player who isn't me. He's great at strategic analysis. I totally expected his first posts to be clarifying rules/tricky roles and especially meta/Syndicate strategy. That is outside his alignment and is step one to playing this game from his (and my) standp...

I just thought it was a bit of a dichotomy. First you make a post implying knowledge then you deny that you have any knowledge. It might not be alignment indicative, but it did catch my eye. It caught my eye specifically because I really do know nothing, and your post about which game the roles are...

I'd like for the players that have claimed they see someone as civvy to answer this - Would you feel bad if they died tonight? I'm going to go to sleep now and dream, and when I wake up, everything's gonna be fine. I'll wake up in a better place, in a better time. Re-reading. This stuck out to me. ...

Last minute caveat: I do need to re-assess gfish. Part of me still really feels his suspicion of me is forced, especially because baddies have more to fear by being inconsistent and reassessing than townies do. Otherwise I like his effort and content generally enough. I stepped back from my previou...

Here is a cozying post in my opinion, and I dissect. Fuuuuuuuu my post! Let's see if I can remember everything. Fluffy stuff: @GFish Bob is better than you? No comment. ;) @Dizzy I like you but you ain't the last unicorn. @MP You could have lost us the Phenom game by not trying. Instead, you put for...

Also, fishface is being disingenuous. He says I am not adding any content, which is blatantly fake news. I am giving reads all over the place. I actually agree with you (except the disingenuous part): I wasn't paying attention to it earlier and I am only seeing it now on a re-read. I'm updating you...

Here is an idea. (I post them as I think of them)

Post ONE player you think is likely town. Very simple. If you say yourself, I vote for you.

mine: colonialbob.

I moved my vote off Long Con to chew on priorities.

I sort of want to hear more from quiet players or players that have posted nothing of substance.

Alright, guess I'll make this meta list thing now I suppose. Grumble grumble. :p Meanwhile, gfish, can you let me know what all of your current reads are briefly? Like, just a list of who you're reading as town, null, and mafia would be great. I'll do that next. I need to get some actual work done ...

I don't think creating a meta list is remotely high priority, especially with a thread so untalkative and with so little reads floating around. I have no idea what most of the player list even think of any other single player. That's not good. I have the opposite approach: I think it generates talk...

Switched vote to Long Con.

I like the rhyme aesthetically but found little of substance.

Nifty: do you really think Adam is a lurker?

I think gfish is full of crap. (Don't take this personally, gfish, you seem like a cool dude and I'm enjoying playing with you.) What I mean is that he is officially a firm mafia read. No offense. I'm coming off waaaaaaaayyyyyy more aggressive in this game than normal. I don't think my normal style...

I thought I would throw a vote on him to see what he would do. gfish, this is what you said regarding your vote on me. You now say I'm your highest scum read. I'm not sure I believe you. Your explanation here indicates that your vote is out of pure pressure, but then you seem to be forcing your mor...

I don't find "cozying" or buddying to be a remotely accurate scum tell 99% of the time. Walk me through a reality in which mafia JOH has an incentive to make the above commentary and town JOH doesn't. JoH especially tends to cozy as mafia. So does Silver Lantern if that helps. I find flat...

No voting Day 0, correct? I haven't even read the rules yet. I can access the site from work and I'll have plenty of downtime Monday. Can we vote no lynch? Why in the world would we want to vote no lynch? I'm asking, not suggesting. My question still stands. As for me: if you have a four town versu...

Dude... Nightmare On Elm Street... Yeah, I know. It wasn't the main villain in the game, though. It was something similar to throw into the game. We do stuff like that in the realms. For example, if the game were 'Netflix Marvel shows Mafia', you might see the role 'The Muppets' from 'The Muppets T...

Eight hours remaining on a 48 hour phase.

Plurality voting is "person with the most votes at end of day is lynched", either with or without a no-vote option. On the Realms we've typically played with majority voting, where somebody is lynched as soon as they get half+1 votes (ignoring shenanigans) and otherwise there's no lynch. ...

I also have a tendency to chain post. I'll post, have another thought or change my mind, and then immediately repost.

I also suck at spelling.

Jack O'H sez: We primarily deal with inactive players via special vigilantes that only kill non posters :cloud9: This idea makes me happy. I would love to make this part of future games I run. After this game, I would love to hear about how this works. Linki @Dsylexicon (did I see someone call you ...

Adam - if this is adamical: he is a solid player with a tendency to lurk or say nothing of substance for large stretches and then break open a game. CaptainNifty - good instincts. I usually tend to read him as town regardless of alignment so I guess that means he plays scum well. colonialbob - posts...

Meta! Adam is cool as a cucumber. He does not crack. Unafraid of going against the grain. Sometimes not as active as I would hope. Depends on things irl. Generally doesn't lead lynches but gets conversation going early. Clutch late game. Nifty is a nice guy. Gets a bit flustered when under suspicio...

Out of town with spotty internet and a full schedule. Other days will be more active for me. Posting from phone right now.

1. Some games do, some games don't have multiple threads. Who knows what the case is here. 2. Some norms. We generally janitor nightkills (as in nightkilled players' roles are not revealed). Similar to how there is a poll in this thread, lynch votes are placed in the same sort of poll , rather than...

Questions: 1. It looks like we have a whole subforum for the game. Will there be multiple threads? 2. What are some norms from the Synidcate? 3. What are some norms from HCRealms? - I have the opinion (right or wrong) that our night action set-up, power arrays, and alternative win conditions are mor...

Tastes may vary.

Possible fake claims:

I am the effect.
I am the mass.

I'm the cop, and I weigh things to determine its mass.
I'm the cause, and this game is its mass effect.

Then again, maybe I should check a wiki before the game starts...

I am posting. Not sure if I have to. Doing it anyway. I'm a go-getter.

I wake up, win the lottery, then loose it all at a casino.

Not playing any game, just misplacing it.

Ahhhh..... To be young again.

Good to know.

I rarely fight dirty, but I'm not super clean.

Thanks. I was thinking of stealing someone's avatar midgame to create confusion. I'd that frowned upon here?

Hello. I'm new here. I'm not new to mafia. I've run games and made some brilliant plays before. I've also lost horribly and made blatant wire with the best of them. I enjoy things sometimes and other times I don't. Historically, I've been very active as a poster, but real life has forced me to allow...
