The Syndicate

We can, but there's less than an hour, and the better world at least requires a couple more players present.

I am unrelaxed about Rondo being in the tie, since he's our only confirmed Town. Literally, to clear Scotty, Rondo has to die. That's the worst version of the plan.

pyxxy & scotty tie is what you are suggesting? when scotty cant even post or vote? and pyxxy bc... ?

It's probably too late for you to be scrapping the plan for a new version.

In what way?

We need a tie, there's dubious thread presence ALREADY from players who can help, and you're chasing butterflies.

is there any damning evidence or more of a vibe?

PoE I guess. Better than Confirmed Town Rondo by a damn long shot.

Your comfort level seems to be deliberately screwing with this Rondo plan.

Pyxxy, of course.

If none of @Porscha @MacDougall or @leetic come back to move their vote to pyxxy from Rondo, then that's the Wolf team, never rescind.

Self-sacrifice is noble and all... but I strongly disagree with Rondo being on the block for this. What if Scotty's Town?

It should be Scotty/pyxxy or maybe tutuu? Rondo's ability will be useful again tomorrow.

I also hate to kill Scotty before he can speak. Because I'd love to hear more about his power. Why isn't pyxxy involved in this?

DarlingMonroe wrote: ↑Thu Dec 28, 2023 9:52 am @Long Con im still confused why your current vote is on mac; do u really think hes not town?

That vote is currently defunct. He might be bad. Wasn't Mac accusing Rondo of being bad because Mac townread Rondo and then neither were nightkilled? Doesn't that then apply to Mac?

Either way, my vote now is for tying. I have 3 hours and I will place it later in that spirit.

Or Mac automatically blocks anyone who targets him.

Role madness is extremely likely with these hosts.

RondoDimBuckle wrote: ↑Thu Dec 28, 2023 7:55 am pretty sure DM is probably town, Porscha is likely town too but her behaviour really is worrying me. Mac probably town.

I wanted to pyxxy mac to confirm mac town so I could relax and I am pretty sure from angle shoot that pyxxy is mafia.

Leetic probably town as well. Robyn is the one I really think is mafia on my wagon. I am happy for a robyn / pyxxy tie to find out

I don't know your deal, but I'll do what I can. I'm going to work right now, and I'll try to be here for a good vote before EoD. I'll leave it on Mac for now, try to set up what you need, and I'll fill in the gaps if need be.

I had a feeling you had checked me, your read had changed too confidently. I was oscillating between wolf tmi and cop

I was fully willing to go over

But it's open nights, so he could report after the yeet anyway.

Nah, Mac is not town. That post was wolfy, and he turnaround and "oopsie" on sig, post lynch, was not towny.

I think we have 48 hours to do this, Mac. I don't think you're in the right frame of mind for Mafia right now. Let's circle back later.

Not at all, really.

Simplified, the partners are his suspects. Less simplified, just read his posts without the self-referential jokes, and you get his reads.

as i stated, incomprehensible, and as mac said "encouraging people to not play"

what reads do you have, LC?

I think Mac is probably bad, Rondo is probably Town, Scotty is maybe Town, Abi is a scumlean, leetic/Mac aren't w/w, ummm.... I could vote Porscha or DM. Or pyxxy. I think those are my reads. Two games at once, so the crossover players muddle a bit.

You aren't really doing much to change that though with your maintained shtick. It's kind of demotivating because I still think you're probably town.

I thought Rondo was doing just fine today, participation-wise. His opinions are coming through his schtick just fine over here.

Anyways, going to my buddy's house for the evening. Bye!

leetic wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 8:10 pm Yeah, I don't like that because it seems to confirm much about the game and it just feels angleshoot-y to talk about. I'll just make a couple of observations:

- Upon sig's initial flip, alignment was revealed but falcon's was not.
- If nightkills are confirmed janitored, then that would suggest that vig kills/etc. aren't. But why would alignment be hidden if wolf kills were the only method of death, unless we're dealing with an ITP?

As I said, I have other reasons to question this but I won't reveal them.

All valid, I am simply going off experience with these hosts, and I don't think it's angleshooty to say it. Alignment and role of nightkilled players were not revealed in the past, and these hosts are from that past, and I think this is more like an "everyone can and should know this" thing than something to put mental energy into.

ebwop

It's likely a janitor kill. I suppose that means a coroner is still possible in this setup I guess but still no evidence one exists.

No, it's not. This is how nightkills are in this game.

I have reasons to doubt this is the case. That's all I'll say for now

Say no more then, but I thought it was host-confirmed when we talked about it earlier:

explain the host thing?

We started playing Mafia together like 15 years ago, on a now-defunct forum, and we didn't have a lot of guidance on normal play standards. We played with janitored nightkills always, we put more information than usual in host posts, you always had to survive the game to win, and a bunch of other things that we found out were weird as we started to see the broader Mafia landscape that existed out there, including making silencers and cursers just as likely to be town roles as wolf.

Feels like a mountain of a molehill, but perhaps I'm missing something

A quick post of my other partner LC and clearing porscha.

Falcon cast a vote for Porscha after hearing my answer, so I submit that him "clearing Porscha" is inaccurate.

I believe the silencing is separate? But then why no one silenced on Day 1?

I think Abbi did it, and I think it has a fine chance of being a Town ability, knowing these Hosts.

And anyway, Porscha was in your PoE and in the list. Why wouldn't you think of that as a good data point, instead of attacking me for even considering that angle?

I just think immediately pushing Falcon's suspect list as something to solve inside makes that much sense in a game where there are some fairly obvious POE candidates to munch through like Pyxxy.

Well, look at the context for me. I was here Christmas Day, and evening, during Night 1, when it seemed like most weren't around. I was there when Extended Night was going to end, I called for it. I was there when it DID end. And it's not like I was immediately gunning for Falcon-kill-suspicion, either. I came back an hour and a half later, looking for the players to all be talking again finally, and just a meh post form tutuu.

I'm like "I want to play Mafia!" and still the thread is Deadsville. So, okay, I'll try to generate some content. Falcon just died, why? Let's look at his posts. Ok these are his suspects. I'm playing by myself at this point.

And I did one short post on the subject! I never said other suspects are not allowed. I'm not trying to hurt your PoE, PoE it up, go wild! I'm not a PoE player, it seems like just a way to say "I don't want to vote for players I think are Towny". Don't look to me to protect the Sacred PoE.

If my one post about it was "sussy", then what do you think of leetic's recent novella on the matter?

MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 5:54 pm It's like misdirecting the solving focus to somewhere I have the benefit of knowing is not townie.

If you have knowledge that I do not, then please don't think me suspicious for playing from that ignorant perspective. It's all I've got.

Nobody I targeted the dead cause I'm dumb

I think you made the right choice.

Falcon suspected leetic, Porscha, Rondo, and one could say, Mac most of all. So his death is probably either because of that, or to try and make us look at those players. How do you tell the difference?

Your answers here are not the same as your answers post-elimination. If your intention was to goad sig into participating, you could have told falcon then. Your answer displays an attitude of willingness to eliminate sig.

Yeah, that's pretty legit.

So someone knows someone else is Town. That's good, hope it helps.
