The Syndicate

Nice crosspost.

Yeah. Pyramid Song especially is a favorite of mine, I'm glad I was able to finagle it into a clever fakeclaim.

TKOL also I think is criminally underrated. Really, really beautiful stuff on there.

And I have several favorites on HTTT as well.

But I gotta go with Kid A/In Rainbows/AMSP for my top three. Really close though.

Scum Chat

(I was very proud of the song name channel names and everything and then i just got d1ed lolme)

Nutella wait. You are saying that if you get it right, they go on the boat and then you protect the whole boat every single night? That role is broken.
well i can only either guess to add people or protect each night
so you cant add ppl and protect the same night?

correct

wait is that an acronym or just a sound to make?

it's a name. "hoya theorem" is one of them silly mu terms, basically means that scum fake claims are the ones that sound clean and make sense while the real town claims are messy/sloppy

[VOTE: tim] aubergine guess this is my best shot lol

no it's just weird and has a lot of details i had to read it like several times

like i can't protect anyone until at least n2

i just dont really buy it tbh
no just the song title, also i should have clarified but i have a full list of the song titles that are in the game so im not just shooting in the dark in the whole discog lmao
So by matching their song you get them in the boat, and then once they are in the boat you can choose one to protect, is that it?

i protect the whole boat

so it's actually p good if i get multiple people

if i have to choose one of these counterwagons prob tim but ehh

staypositivefriend wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 9:16 pm maybe im tinfoiling but nutella's claim feels like a last-ditch effort to see if she can get people to claim their roles

i specifically didn't want to full claim for this reason lol. i'm afraid of potential negative consequences of claiming so i was hoping to go off hints

tutuu wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 9:14 pm like how is nutella supposed to ever match ppl's songs to their names ever

how many radiohead songs are there. 50? 100?

shes supposed to blindly guess 3 songs?

what is this, a 1% success rate doctor?

i thought people would hint with lyrics and stuff and i'm quite familiar with the discography so i was hoping i could pick some up if so

like I guess it could be useful if people are willing to openly claim their roles and stuff but i didn't want to push for that right away

the details are complicated but im essentially a very limited doctor
can you claim everything? details, etc

ok i'm pyramid song
every night I send in three guesses for matching a song/role title to a player and if I ever get any right I can add them to my "boat" and can then protect them on future nights

yes and I think you townclearing her for that of all things is p unreasonable lol. "why would they say this in thread instead of scumchat" is pretty much always a bad take

can you like, lay out all your reasons for scum reading jules in one post? i’m still not really clear on why you’re so confident in this
she has obvious tmi on me, also perhaps on mac and ted
her reasons for jumping on my wagon were overjustified and extremely weak and all just things that are either nai or town indicative for me
all of her posts have really stilted tone and there are a few other things that felt like potential tmi/weird assumptions
i think literally all of her posts have made me :fry:
nutella - have you gone back and looked at Coronavirus Mafia? You tunneled me mercilessly for my tone mostly throughout the game and I was town. What has made you suddenly a good reader of my tone since then?

My reasons for scum reading you were not over justified - you're just using that phrase because it has a negative connotation. Others had similar reads of you, are they also wolves?

I have no TMI because I don't know who is scum, town, and rogue in this game. What makes you think I have TMI on you?

I think you are just pounding the person you perceive as the weakest voting for you.

I was doubtful of my read of you at first precisely because it was just tone and I've been wrong about your tone before, but you really didn't stop pinging me with every post and the suspicion is more based in the content of your posts than just the tone now

Alison wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 8:45 pm juliets has TMI? I'm sort of addled because I've been awake for a godforsaken amount of time but I definitely remember juliets calling you scum quite a bit, presumably you did not intend to imply she was TMI-ing you as scum?

no, she knows I will flip town. she's tried to be subtle about it but the perspective leaks through imo especially in the post where she justifies her vote and then has like an entire caveat section

At 1 vote is where you start challenging but they let it get all the way up to 11 votes. As town surely you would do something about the people voting for you, 3 votes, 5 votes, 8 votes, 10 votes. It's not a runaway wagon at all, it's an unchallenged one
bro i was asleep when most of the votes appeared on me

I think there were like 4 when i went to bed so i was like kinda concerned but def didn't seem like a runaway until i woke up
But have you defended yourself enough when you are back

apparently not. i've tried, and i've done my best to play the game and provide my thoughts. I'm just town here doing my thing but at this point it looks like most people aren't getting there on me. at least yall can look into my reads upon my flip

like the two games you reference were waaaayyyy more unconventional/bordering on bastard than most syndicate games, and sloonei's clause about that makes me think there's nothing that...extreme here

I'm gonna guess by wolves with Hellbusser clauses in their roles, which is imo a serious concern.
Hellbusser clauses???
I've played two games here. In both cases there were wolf roles that unlocked additional powers by participating in killing a fellow wolf. Basically they incentivized an organized planned buss strat; willing wolf who plays to be bussed making connections with townies, wolves who know that they will lose that partner early so come out the gate distancing, the whole bussing trickbag.

i really doubt sloonei has anything like that in this setup

I’ve never seen scumTutu but this looks just like her town game to me so I’m not really interested in killing it on the basis of “maybe this time she’s Mafia”

this basically

she has been kinda hard shielding jpic and oddmerta tho hm

i mean i don't know what a wolf tutuu would look like so i suppose it's possible but... don't really think i'm going there d1 unless it ends up being my only route to self pres

tutuu wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 6:31 pm After finishing his post, sprityo begins laughing heartily as he pats himself on the back for catching the deepwolf tutuu. His chuckling comes to a steady end as he fully relaxes on his chair, closing his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes shoot open and his face violently straightens. He stands up, and fully extends his arms straight and outwards to his sides. His body begins slowly levitating upwards, seemingly breaking the very fundamental rules of reality itself. As he goes against all logic and reason with his vehement hovering, his eyelids drop and rise up again to reveal godly lights beaming from his eye sockets. A disembodied heavenly choir resonates from the abruptly omniscient man. A deific shock wave is fiercely expelled from his body, leveling his house and the surrounding neighborly architecture unworthy of his divine presence. Screams are heard from all directions, from both his family, neighbors, and bystanders walking by. Before continuing his ascent, his lips part to deliver one final message to the mere mortals surrounding him.

"I HAVE ACHIEVED, PEAK, WEREWOLF, PERFORMANCE."

He looks up, and with one swift movement, launches to the heavens, to properly acquire his ownership of the universe itself.

amazing

but i'd also start worrying about a deepwolf if that were the case tbh. i'm almost certainly misclearing someone

let's say that we live in a world where me and juliets are both town - who would your next target be? who would u suspect?

i feel like ur focus has been very narrow. your read on me is very unclear and your read on juliets seems to largely be based on meta, so it's hard for me to figure out if ur reads are coming from a sincere place. i wanna hear who ur main foses are outside of the two people uve been focusing on

I'd mostly look into the next tier up in my last reads list -- jpic, herm, lc, oddmerta, and prob dizzy atp. that's my main poe outside you two

juliets particularly overjustified her vote by referencing stuff that is totally nai for me and with a caveat that she can easily see me flipping town. I think she knows I will and is just trying to cover for jumping on the wagon
