The Syndicate

I will be solving this game in a way as though I am reading spec chat.

Colin got a job? That's very scummy.

We have 112 and 1612. That's concerning.

i was worried earlier what would my opener be if i rolled scum. cuz ppl say when im town im obvious. so like, i was already sweating about letting my team down if i randed maf

thankfully i can procrastinate the inevitable. not today. i can repel any scumreads or anything without even trying, i just need to be honest and put my faith that the person on the other end will see im town. feels good. its so polarizing, the difference between playing as town and playing as mafia

obvious town is obvious

I think this is a lightly villagery Mac post.

This is borrowed meta, but: I remember early in Pyre DVC it was posited that Mac could be read off his general approach to the game; I believe the exact wording was that wolf!Mac "acts like an entertainer rather than a player". I'm ALSO aware that this is somewhat incorrect, and that Mac can easily be a performative shitposter as a villager, too.

However, consider: this is actually a somewhat nuanced read from Mac below the surface nonseriousness of it, and the super casual delivery of it makes it seem like it's no big deal. I suspect that the ACTUAL Mac meta difference is that a shitposty wolf!Mac has a lot more trouble making this read, or at least struggles to make it feel as naturally delivered as it does here.

I maybe also lean v on Urist for his half of the interaction, though I'm less confident there.

Think this probably meets my quota of giving a shit for Day 0 but we'll see.

Anyway I'm just tunnelling this until I have flips and stuff.

Meat reads are scummy tbh

Nutella I already have 112 as mafia. Keep up.

nutella wrote: ↑Tue Aug 11, 2020 7:03 pm Yeah but you have me as mafia too so fix ur head

Once day 1 starts I am not reading any of the posts as alignment indicative. I will reevaluate my POE based on other factors.

Lively day zero fam.

carotte is a weak v lean and would be a strong v lean if i knew what her wolfgame looked like

[VOTE: Amy] aubergine

Gotta stop reading posts.

I voted you for the second sentence. It makes no sense for you to be able to say that you'd have a strong v lean on her if you had more meta. It's bs.

lemme clarify, cause i think i worded it poorly

carotte's current play reminds me very very strongly of both of her champs games, both of which i hosted and both of which saw her rand v

i HAVEN'T seen her wolfgame, however, and thus fear that she is perhaps able to replicate her towngame quite well

if it weren't for this fear, she'd be a stronger v lean than i currently have her as

make sense?

Yes that would not be a scummy thing to say.

are you voting people based off of their townyness, starting from the top and then moving down?

if so, your third vote should be on urist!

So you consider yourself the towniest person in the game eh?

tutuu wrote: ↑Tue Aug 11, 2020 8:57 pm yes! althought im probably biased to think of this way about myself?

objectively you and amy and me are the most consensus townread people, are we not?

Maybe so. I've been trying not to read posts.

Carotenoid wrote: ↑Tue Aug 11, 2020 9:01 pm What's 112 wolf meta?

It's hard to say tbh. I think of anyone here I have the best idea but I wouldn't trust my meta all that much.

The first time I encountered 112 was in champs last year in the qualifiers they were town and they had as much wim as anyone I'd ever played with. Sharp as hell, unafraid to ruffle feathers. We had a town v town war. I've never seen that 112 since so I think that it's unfair to scumread her in the absence of that meta.

The second time I played with 112 they randed wolf and deepwolfed very well and got to f3 in the champs semi last year where they bested me and Vanity after I got myself into kingmaker. In that game their wolfgame was typified by being unafraid to vote for and even eliminate partners. They would have been scumread more if not for flips revealing that 112 had pushed partners. By the end of the game there was evidence of 112 having cased and voted on each and every single partner. One notable thing was hammering their teammate Evenstar while 112 and I were both in the thread laughing at how outed she was. 112 just lolnoped and hammered her when really I wasn't even that convinced she was mafia.

I think the two aforementioned games are probably 112 playing town (and mafia) at her top form. Since then by and large I have seen 112 play near identical as either alignment. Mostly surface level reads. Significant periods of no content. Doesn't really care when people scumread her. Just hasn't seemed to have near the wim as either alignment. I understand a lot has occured for 112 personally since champs last year and I think mostly 112 feels like they can't afford to get themselves that immersed in mafia for their own sanity frankly.

Hope that helps.

Wow, that's like the most inspiring meta take I've ever seen. Thanks!

Nutella, you said that 112 was in wolf meta, do you still think that and why?

Now to develop some Carotenoid meta.

Don't hard sheep my vote unless it's my EOD vote tbh.

Nutella town
Amy town
Nook town
Colin town
Carotenoid town
TSP town
Urist town

Y'all want Tutuu to be town so fine. Someone said Urist was town. Fine.

Of the players left I'd say Alison is probably lock mafia because they're the only one that is like trying to be towny.

tedxtr wrote: ↑Wed Aug 12, 2020 6:40 am nutella's actually not even close to a town read for me

i kinda wanna say they're more likely to be scum but a lot of it is just because people town reading nutella have very bad reasons to town read her

She's lock town.

Cuz she's not mafia

That can't be a real read lol.
