Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 0]

I'm so sorry, everyone. I'd totally forgotten I'd signed up for this as I haven't been here in a while. It's wonderful (so far) being back here with you all and it looks like an amazing game. I see we're already at 11 pages so I guess what I'm pleading for is:
A) your patience and understanding as I try to catch up and immerse myself in this game and
B) A clue about how you respond to someone by quoting their post. Somebody asked me a question and when I reply a name keeps appearing and when I press 'Return' it inserts some bizarre stuff in the middle of my post - sorry, again, I've not played since the redesign of the site. Thank Ye :)

Hi Glorfindel!

That’s the tagging function at work. It happens when you quote a post that features an @ tag. If you find that “@“ in the quoted material an delete in, that will stop happening. :)
Thank you Jay! As always, you are a scholar and a gentleman :hug:

could you each briefly summarize your past mafia playing history? How long have you been playing for? What site are you from? Have you played on the syndicate before? If no, are there any players in this game you have prior experience playing with?
Hi, Kyle :) In answer to your questions:
  • I've been playing Mafia games for coming up four years (I think)
      I've played on a number of sites but most recently here and Mafia Universe
        Yes, you can see from my profile that I've been here at The Syndicate for just over two years (where I think I've become a legend for all the WRONG reasons :haha:
          I've played with almost everyone here unless they're very new and I feel quite excited to be back playing with them.
        And you're forgiven for not understanding the significance of what I'm about to say here, but

        Yes, I AM Town!

        PS. Previewing this post I can see that I've screwed up my bullet-pointing - I'm afraid you guys are going to have to cut me some serious slack while I try to work out how the hell to find my way around this place...

              I should also point out that in all the time I've played here at The Syndicate, I've never won a game as either alignment and that reflects my playing history elsewhere. Guess I'm generally crap and I don't expect that to change this game - just so you know... :haha:

              Again, there is no need to apologise, Jay. Of all the people I’ve met playing these games, there is no one whom I hold in higher regard than you for your intellect, reason, passion for the game and your integrity. You did what you felt you needed to do and it worked out for you - and I respect that. I do think however that it was a potentially a risky strategy (had I actually been Town). I will likely return to my policy of permanent non-declaration of my alignment after this game so whilst it worked out for you in Mad Max, I’d counsel you to think twice in future.

              And just like Chuckles, I’m thrilled to be back here, in a game with you, my friend :hugs:

              I personally didn’t think much of this post from Kyle. To my mind, it looks like an attempt to appear to engage with his fellow players by giving them a task to perform. Subsequent comments in relation to his question makes it appear that he’s generating content without genuine engagement.

              Don’t like this from Quin either. Quin’s far too good a player to fall for this and I’d frankly have expected better.

              Sloonei buys into Kyle’s question and provides valid content - a good look from Sloonei here.

              Quin is mafia because he called Kyle's question "good" without clarifying why he cared about the question or why it moved him.
              While I’m inclined to skepticism of Jay’s read on Kyle, I think his evaluations of Quin and Sloonei are valid however based on the limited content this page.

              Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]

              Page 2 - Key take-aways:

              Continued discussion and conjecture about the role of the poll. If Kyle was trying to create a smoke screen, he appears to have been successful (not that the conjecture wasn’t without some level of interest).

              MacDougall loses 10 points for reminiscing on the Star Wars game - my first here at The Syndicate and one I’ve spent the past two+ years trying to forget.

              I see the reasoning being put forward by those arguing for visiting the Outworld first up but you’ll have to forgive me my cautious nature here. If the logic being applied is that some advantage accrues to the ‘home team’ for any of these places, starting the game by giving an advantage to the bad guys hardly makes any sense to me. I’ll be taking note of those players that voted for this option first up - it might potentially be very useful later on.

              What are your immediate impressions of Mac and I?
              I find this question posed by Jay to Quin to be rather odd. MacDougall had commented earlier that he was thinking similarly to Jay earlier but for Jay to be suggesting some kind of relationship between he and Mac out of the blue like this seems ‘unsettling’.

              Lynch all liars.
              Tell me about Kylemii.
              I had a ping at first which I am prone to do when people are being enthusiastic in the way that Kylemii seemed to be (see Sloonei's description) but further posts seem relatively genuine. I don't accept Jimmy's argument for clearing as that's just as likely if not more so just common phrasing that Kylemii uses.

              Thank you for the question. What were you expecting me to say?
              He's been around as much as the next person so far but hasn't touched on the only suspect (me) yet, and has talked primarily about the poll. I wanted to know if anyone else thought it was worth mentioning.

              Yeah, see this is the Quin I was expecting to find here this game. It’s early but I wonder if we’re seeing the beginning of an anti-Quin agenda in the making?

              I missed this question before. Jay is a player who, in recent history has tricked me enough that I now try to prioritize reading him asap. I've also noticed that, in general, reading one of you or Jay seems to lead to having a read on the other sooner or later.

              I see both of you putting early day 0 effort into throwing sticks in people's spokes, but nothing too hardlined yet, which is understandable cus it's day 0 and 2/3 of the game hasn't checked in yet.

              I guess that doesn't really answer the question
              We’re only on page 3 but this post seems to reinforce my concerns about Kyle. He’d made no attempt to engage with anyone until this point (perhaps deliberately) and now this exchange appears clumsy and awkward. It leaves me wondering if this may just be a ‘Kyle thing’ and not something that may perhaps be alignment indicative.

              So hey poll. I voted not-bad place because hanging around in mafia territory sounds like a bad idea? Feel like people are overthinking it, but hey, you guys have played more epi games than me.

              Townread on quin. I have read quin correctly in 100% plus or minus 30% of the games I've played with him. So it's basically certain that he's town.
              Here we have Chuckle’s entrance into the game - again, appears a little awkward. “plus or minus 30% my friend? That’s one hell of a margin for error! I’m not sure I see the point of this read on Quin.

              Dave enters the game, states that he is new (alarms ringing here in respect of future votes on him) and sheeps Jay’s take on the poll. Not usually a bad person to sheep on (off?) but not a fan of his logic on this matter as I’d discussed in an earlier post.

              This page I’m seeing more from Sloonei (i.e. strategising about poll selections, thoughts on Quin). Not completely sold on the Quin thing but his posts strike me as considered, thoughtful and genuine. Town read starting to firm.

              Entrance by novaselinever seems unremarkable. I get a sense of trepidation on their part entering the game which in my view is well justified. I wish them and Dave the very best this game.

              Increasing discomfort with Chuckles. Can’t quite put my finger on it but he is seriously driving a null read for me here. Looking forward to see how things develop with him.

              If he says he's town, I ain't lynching him.
              I always hope a nonliar is playing a long con and this kinda behavior will come back to bite you.

              Never happens. Just comes back to bite the nonliar and frustrate their teammates.

              One time, I was in a monster mafia game and our resident non liar claimed Godzilla, who had killed in the writeup. Everyone believed him of course and he won the game...as mafia. Godzilla kills other monsters after all.
              I’ve already addressed this matter this game and will not allow it to become a distraction. Case closed.

              clumsy and awkward is an apt description of just who i am as a person actually

              I overlooked that question before when I read through the first time, when I reread things to try to figure out Made's deal, I felt bad that I'd left the asker hanging so i responded.

              I don't really tend to be the type of player who does a lot of early prodding if other players are already doing it. On day 0's and 1's I prefer to watch and analyze the proddings that are already happening until something catches my attention.
              Thanks, Kyle. At the point of my review, that was an option that I was seriously considering. I appreciate you taking the time to explan.

              It's not really a matter of sample size if you ask me. All I need to know is that he was not town in Mad Max, and no matter how hard I tried or how I framed the question, he would not claim to be town (or answer me period). Quin was on his mafia team and corroborates that. The man doesn't lie; that's his moral decision and I believe him completely.
              For the sake of posterity the bolded comment above is misleading, Jay. I DID answer the question you posed in that game. My answer stood regardless of my alignment and WILL be the position to which I will return for any game I play here at this site in future. It just so happened that you were right that game. You could just as easily have been wrong. Having said that, I enjoyed that game immensely and am convinced that you can never truly appreciate just how much I agonised over not being able to say those three words (I am Town) to you.

              Well at first i was thinking a burnt orange, but i feel like a more rosey and inviting red really fit you more.
              Page 4 starts with Made accusing Sloonei of being bad (don’t know how else to interpret ‘a more rosey and inviting red’). As I’d said previously, at this point I can see the suspicion being justified, Sloonei asks for an explanation and what follows from Made (i.e. allegation of being Indy) is in my view bizarre. Sloonei’s pursuit of Made looks good in my opinion and I think Made looks far worse for it. Jay Townfirms Sloonei and on the face of it, I think I’d agree. As for Made, I can’t fathom what they’re doing here - it looks more ill-conceived that malicious.

              Quin was asking me about why I hadn't commented on the suspicion against him, 'the only real suspect'. it was a comment on his questjon, since I hadn't really seen much suspicion put towards quin yet it seemed odd that he'd list himself as the top suspect. Odd in a "quin is being a goofball" way.
              I feel like this post should be significant. I find myself agreeing with Kyle here that Quin’s ‘only real suspect’ is weird. I’m not in any position to comment on Quin being a goofball - that has not been my experience of him since we’ve been playing together.

              Sloonei Town reads Made - which as I alluded to earlier kinda makes some sense.

              We have an exchange between Sloonei and Chuckles with respect to Made. Again, a really good look for Sloonei and Chuckles still feels (to me) ‘uncomfortable’.

              Eloh joins the game complaining about having to catch up four pages? :confused2:

              Jack enters the thread, sounds OK. My biggest concern here seems to be Chuckles - not getting a great vibe.

              Based on what I’ve read so far, best of luck with that, Sir!

              Not a great deal to report this page. Elements of off topic and flavour discussion.

              Nutella joins the game with a handful or superficial reads but interestingly makes no reference to Jay other than to remark about his poll theorising - otherwise, looks harmless enough.

              Kyle is still feeling somewhat stilted and awkward but his content is improving (i.e. his hypothesising about Made’s previous peculiar behaviour).

              sorry I got pulled off into talking with Mac, and also it's 5am and I should probably be asleep by now, at this point I should probably just stay up since I need to be awake in 2 hours anyways lol.

              I guess I would say right now... my willingness to push angles that other people aren't i.e. with the Sloonei thing.

              Honestly the strongest indication of my civvie-ness is that my mafia playstyle is prohibitively distinctive. My natural anxiety takes the wheel more than I'd like it to and my activity plummets. It's not a weakness I've learned to overcome yet but when I do, I'll probably be unstoppable. :guitar:

              being town read on day 1 is not really even a priority for me though. I almost prefer not to be. lots of people town reading me early and the mafia responding with murder has been my leading cause of death lately. If I knew a way to float in people's yellows and lighter greens for the first couple days of mafia without sacrificing my ability to be an effective civ player I would 100% use it.

              I guess that doesn't really help you with your specific conundrum. if you ask me the same question in 2 days I'll probably have a more specific answer.
              Thank you, Kyle. Let’s make that a date then, shall we? :D

              Oh? I don’t think I knew that? I thought voting here was a one time deal?

              Also, Hi, Mac :). It’s been quite a while...
              Hey friendo!
              It’s been ages since I’ve played here and I have to admit to being a little surprised how good it feels to be back... I trust you’ve been well and life has been kind to you since we last played?
              Been a while for me too. Have a new daughter since we last played!
              Has it been THAT long? Congratulations, by the way. I thought from your posts here that you seemed to have mellowed a little - now I can see why... I hope that she and all of you are doing very well.

              So I notice there's alot of day 0 talking is it serious or just fluff?

              Also wow way to many posts. :sigh:
              Well hello there, looks like I've kinda caught up. So I'm going to post a few thoughts when they're still fresh from my catch up then I've gotta go for a run and will be back to ISO and reread some things later. What I'm seeing right now is we have a major three way smack down going on between Jay, Sloonie and Jack which I still don't really get. Mac is prodding, but as someone pointed out he's acting much more mellow which is odd, quin/kyle have both been under some suspicion which I'm not sure is justified based on there game play/what people are accusing them of and we have a fair amount of new players.
              I'm reading Glorf as solid town and a few other players as lean towns who I've already listed. The main issue I'm having right now is that I don't see anyone being scummy.
              Kyle had some odd early game posts, but I think has come back from it.
              Made and nutella both look okay to me, but I'm curious why she placed me so far down on her list.
              I'd like to see some more posts by Wilgy, Eloh, MM, and the newer players I feel like a few posters have the vast majority of posts/content which could let scum wallflower and not be noticed. I also find it odd that Wilgy isn't being as active/odd as he usually is. This could point to him being scum and trying to live longer, but seeing how often he's mislynched I don't think I'd vote for him.
              LC is looking good I'd rather not lynch him.
              Speed pinged me a bit, but I can't remember why so I'll need to go back and check.
              I’m surprised by this. This is your second consecutive post where you’ve used sound sentence construction, proper use of punctuation and near-perfect spelling. Just who are you and what have you done with our Sig? :ponder:

              It would be very limited, my friend. You and Jay would top it. There’d be a handful of people who would appear in the next tier down like our friend MacDougall then a whole bunch of people about whom I have reservations like Quin and Kyle. Then there’s Chuckles and Jack (whilst reading him Town earlier) seems to be in free-fall, Made who confuses the hell out of me. Then there’s a bunch of people like Wilgy, Sig & Co that I haven’t seen enough of to make any kind of judgement yet.

              Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]

              EoD takes place in under an hour. I still have substantial content to review in this thread and as such, feel uncomfortable in casting a vote at this stage. I actively dislike the current wagons (i.e. Mac, even Kyle - I want to give him more time, and especially Sloonei). My involvement between now and EOD will be patchy at best. I’ll try to keep up to speed as best I can but that is going to be VERY limited (I am at work and getting smashed as I type this). I trust you all appreciate my predicament. Thank you.

              I don't think I could project movement; reads will develop however they may as the game progresses. Looking at the rainbow I do find myself forgetting why TSP is green, so I'll refresh myself on that.
              I meant foresee in terms of likely changes since you posted that list, Jay and yes, the TSP ranking was one of the things that jumped out at me given his limited number of posts and the nature of them. Thanks

You completely changed the conversation. Mac poked at you for something similar earlier. Did you ever respond to his actual criticism of you?

              That 16* person team claim was srs biznus if I was reading Sloonei's motives right, as an aside.
              the exchange with me that you're referring to actually happened at the very end of page 2, all I saw before that was you, sloonei, and jay poking at each other to feel each other out, like goats do when they meet another goat for the first time.

              Also Made has wilgy as his second strongest town read on the strength of this post and nothing else (wilgy's only other contribution at the time of made's rainbow was an OT comment about jack's avatar). I guess I overlooked this post when I was discussing Made's observation about heat on me, but I don't really take this seriously since it doesn't seem like wilgy's expressing an actual suspicion of me, rather he's just shaking his fist at me for having close to 50 posts on Day 0. I'd shake my fist at me too. That's ridiculous.
              I don't understand any of Made's reads, I guess, but that doesn't stop me from liking that they exist at this point.
              Why did it take you so long to comment on this? Why did you provide a reason other than suspicion when I said I was suspicious of you?

              Comparing your first buncha posts here to other civ Sloonei posts makes me feel that you are being non genuine here. An example of difference can be found by comparing this game to the search for Quin.

              I love to receive movie references that are meaningful in context. Jay's doing a really great job using the resources that he has to provide content ( which is the best present a girl could ask for).

              Speaking of clever use, I don't suppose that Quin is buying me more expensive dishes every time he sees someone he suspects, and cheaper ones when he likes them? Or perhaps the other way around? It would be nice to figure that out, but in the meantime I'm enjoying all the delicious food he's ordering.

              Also Made has wilgy as his second strongest town read on the strength of this post and nothing else (wilgy's only other contribution at the time of made's rainbow was an OT comment about jack's avatar). I guess I overlooked this post when I was discussing Made's observation about heat on me, but I don't really take this seriously since it doesn't seem like wilgy's expressing an actual suspicion of me, rather he's just shaking his fist at me for having close to 50 posts on Day 0. I'd shake my fist at me too. That's ridiculous.
              I don't understand any of Made's reads, I guess, but that doesn't stop me from liking that they exist at this point.
              Why did it take you so long to comment on this? Why did you provide a reason other than suspicion when I said I was suspicious of you?

              Why judge my suspicion as nonexistent without a question? You devote such time to your stream of posts and I didn't get one until someone else drew it out and I yelled about it. Porque?

              Then your post following also was too long and fluffy.

              Comparing your first buncha posts here to other civ Sloonei posts makes me feel that you are being non genuine here. An example of difference can be found by comparing this game to the search for Quin.

              Now. Why did I have to bark for you to bat an eye?

Now, a very clever man would put the poison into his own goblet because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me."

              I love to receive movie references that are meaningful in context. Jay's doing a really great job using the resources that he has to provide content ( which is the best present a girl could ask for).

              Speaking of clever use, I don't suppose that Quin is buying me more expensive dishes every time he sees someone he suspects, and cheaper ones when he likes them? Or perhaps the other way around? It would be nice to figure that out, but in the meantime I'm enjoying all the delicious food he's ordering.

              Not you too, Jay :(
              Why not?

              Is that because you're the best, or because you're having an affair with the boss's wife behind his back?

              Jay, am I correct in assuming that you are trying to tell us that a player whose name relates to a substance that doesn’t go well with Bacon (like, Nutella, for instance) is lying?

              This must be frustrating for you Kyle because I can tell you, it’s excruciating for me to see you do this. I don’t want to sound like a broken record, but this is just ridiculous. What is to be gained from this? How are we meant to discern your alignment (or anyone else likewise afflicted) when you are like this? I sense you are trying really hard despite the temptation to abandon this lunacy and I respect you enormously for your continued efforts. I look forward to the time that I can once again converse with you normally.
