The Syndicate

If I was a wolf I would have won the coinflip tho.

Like we just had to get to f5 and it’s very very hard for us to lose from there with the vote thing. And MP’s RB.

That fucking EOD gave me half a heart attack, was super worried my internet would shit the bed and I wouldn’t get my vote moved.

I/we 100% killed for a combination of threat to me and wouldn’t get TKed, by the by. I’m shocked it went as well as it did tbh, cause literally every NK had me as a strong scumread.


(I was super worried by wilgy tbh, him showing up really made the game hard. I have a ton of respect for his game now!)

I'm sorry, y'all. I fucked up.

Not really tbh, your plan was very reasonable. It probably should’ve been done at 7 tbh, but doing it at 5 was pretty defensible imo.

Like town played really well, I had to do stuff I really didn’t want to just to make it hard...and I think you all had the right answer at the end anyways!

Good job Nook, carrying the team to victory.

Can't believe my luck though - of all the roles to target...

Womp womp womp

Yeah that was some brutal luck haha. 1/12 chance lmao

By the way guys and gals, sincerely, thank you all for a really fun game. I often don’t enjoy playing during the day in scum games, but I really had fun playing this game with you guys, so. Thanks for a good time

I thought you did a good job conveying the competing narratives of “I’m scum and you’re all going to win” and “anyone who doesn’t go with this plan is scum”.

Oh wow I just realized why you kept saying I should’ve seen flaws in the TK hyena plan, and yeah I probably should’ve

It wasn’t terrible from my POV but it did have more flaws than I realized lol

I still wonder: how was LC’s power supposed to work?? Was it really just hosing mafia who get unlucky?

I think I maybe could’ve convinced Jack to get on you, but Hyena and DDL stayed locked. Not that that’s a bad thing — they didn’t trust me. I should have presented a lynch Nanook if he’s town lynch me sorta thing, but I guess I wasn’t confident enough myself.

Hoses mafia that gets unlucky or gives a green check—if jack had his power and doesn’t die, LC functionally has a green check on him.

Yeah, it’s kinda tough to fight against a townie that keeps insisting on dying too.

All of my final day poll options were stuff like “town gets +.1 votes” or what not, for dealing with exactly that power. Epi didn’t let them through, which I think is reasonable. The role isn’t supposed to be deciding games.

And if Jack rands scum, it’s a one shot kill if used.
This is the role that I thought you had given me, with one very strange corner case that we saw play out.

(In the pirates game)

Yeah, when I first read LC’s flip I thought it was exactly the same but day instead of night.

I should probably read flips closer lol

If you and Jack had moved your votes to Nanook, I would've followed, especially near the end when I was the most paranoid. I felt kinda stuck sticking to the plan once everybody committed to it. Of course, I didn't help things by questioning any time someone thought about switching the plan. But yeah, if you had suggested moving to Nanook in, like, the last hour of the days, I would've gone along with it.

Huh, We coulda gotten it. I’m at three games in a row lost at (what amounts to) F3.

I need to get better before champs

I'm literally never trusting nanook in a game again

Also probably never taking those plans because I should have at least stopped to think what abilities the last mafia might have.

Damn. GG.

I mean, tbf...this is a much better scum game than I’m usually capable of.

Hot damn. Nanook pulled it off. You earn 1 Woogy scum point.

GG all!

Wow [mention]NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME[/mention] you did really well! After I died I was hoping people would see through your declining to claim even your character. Tony - I think it was Tony - pushed it but you didn't budge. I went through most of the game thinking you were town and didn't suspect you until my last day. And congrats also to [mention]Master Radishes[/mention] and [mention]M Plus 7[/mention]. Radish, that was the most unlucky vig shot for you I've ever seen ( [mention]Long Con[/mention] good work! ) and MP7 you were just in a no win position but you almost pulled it out. Good game scummers!

And guys remember, this is just how my town game works. I'm not a good Day 1 player, I ask questions and don't seem to do anything with the answers sometimes because I'm assessing and putting pieces together in my head. And I was telling the truth, even though I was dead tired I would have never left Jack with my vote as scum.

Hosts, [mention]MacDougall[/mention] and Epi good game, even though I was under siege most of the time it doesn't mean I didn't appreciate your game. The roles were fun and funny. I would have liked to spend some of the time role playing. Looking forward to playing with you all again!

I had the entire game locked down D1.

Nah, you are now going to my "impossible to read" pile, for at least the next 2 years.

Congratulations.

What is worse is that whatever you do doesn't seem to work with other people but resonates with me. So I guess I'll just follow other people when it comes to you, now.

Good game, grats scum. Nanook pulled it off when it was seemingly not a tenable end. I love long solo runs, so hats off.

[mention]Master Radishes[/mention] would've had a good run too if he weren't so unlucky. I had him for a bit D1, but I believe him when he told me he was confident he was going to bounce back and throw me off his tail.

Good game from MP as well- his AtE was top-notch, champ-level stuff.

I was pretty close, too. We should form a committee.

Holy fuck, Nanook is goat!

It was very strange being town and then turning around and being scum in a lurker position... I was planning on efforting my way out of it but I was pretty busy that first day phase and figured I wouldn’t get lynched right away. Oops.

The feeling is mutual, let’s play longer together next time!

Thanks for playing everyone. Meant to post the roles:

Coronavirus Mafia

President Donald Trump
You are on the lookout for fake news. If you see fake news presented through the Hosts, submit a PM to the Hosts that says, “Fake News” and the person who posted fake news will die if that individual is mafia. You may only do this once, Mr. President.

Dr. Anthony Fauci
You are definitely a doctor. You protect one person from death each Night.

Dana White
As President of UFC, you want to see people beat the shit out of each other. Each Night, you will choose two targets. These targets may only talk about each other the next Day. The one that gets more votes will lose his or her power and the one who gets the fewer votes will get to use the loser’s role ability the next Night. If there is a tie, your vote is worthless the next Day. If you refrain, refuse, or forget to use this ability, your vote will be worthless the next Day.

Vince McMahon
Before the end of each Day, send the Hosts new gimmicks (game rules). The night poll will allow the players to vote on which gimmick to take on for the following day only. The show must go on so don't break the game or bad things will happen to you.

Soap
You just want to help. You give your target -2 votes against him or her the next Day. After Day 4, you are used up and do not have a Night action.

Zoom
Each Night you may launch a Zoom session with your target for BTSC the next Day phase only.

An MSNBC Journalist
You may post a report through the hosts each Night detailing your opinions.

Von Miller
If you vote the lynch victim first, and if the lynch victim is indeed mafia, your vote the next Day is worth 2. Sack!

Boris Johnson
Each Night, you target someone. During any Night you do not target someone, you may impose Brexit, and everyone you have targeted thus far gets removed from the next Day’s poll.

Joe Diffie
We’re gonna prop you up beside the jukebox if you die. If you are killed by the mafia, you get to sing on-topic country songs the next Day phase.

Bats
You are bats. You may or may not contain coronavirus. If you are lynched, any mafia members who voted for you are blocked that Night.

Jair Bolsonaro
You are a Coronavirus denier. Each night you will deny someone the opportunity to vote the following day.

You are a civilian and win when the mafia are all dead.

Mafia

Toilet Paper Hoarders
You have buttloads of toilet paper. You can give one roll to someone and that recipient’s vote won’t count against you or your team.

People Who Feel Compelled to be on TikTok
Like those who copy different dance moves, you may steal any person’s role during the Day, but you must use it that Night. You may not elect to refrain from using it. You need the attention. You will die without the attention.

Idiots Who Lick Things in Grocery Stores
You make it so people can’t do their jobs. Your target therefore won’t be able to act at Night due to having to clean up after your nastiness.

++++
