The Syndicate

I will never not be annoyed by paging myself.

More to come soon. I'll be poking around today as I prepare for my trip, so use that mention feature and give me your questions.

Reviewing fingersplints Hello all! Late to the party but glad to see the game has started. I’ve had an unusually busy Saturday booked in advanced for SEN activities for my daughter. I would have warned if I’d known the game would start now. one of the events was at the natural history museum which ...

That's what I thought, thanks. Wanted to get that straight from Sloonei's review.

With time constrained, I will expand on this. I thought falcon's take on Sloonei was pretty token. When asked for reads, Sloonei gave two that could be viewed as "generic" (that Delta and I earned a town point for making the game move). While I don't think those reads necessarily indicate...

Reviewing Sloonei Any thoughts so far? You and Jay have done an adequate job of hoisting this game out of the silent void it was resting in. Enough so to award you each a townie point. Sloonei's first couple of reads were aligned with general Day 1 consensus. These were easy reads to make in the mo...

Given that votes are locked, and many of us are operating on constrained schedules (i.e., we cannot sit in the game thread all day), I think we're going to need to get to voting sooner than later. That doesn't necessarily have to mean everyone votes soon, but it would be very disadvantageous for us ...

Roxy and JJJ (along with Sloonei) voted for Lime Coke day 2 tying for most votes, since that could have led to elimination I say I will eliminate all those pairings as well. This has pretty much cleared Lime Coke for me and leaving me with these three options to think about. I was thinking a bit ea...

https://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewtopic.php?p=1118043#p1118043 I said that JJJ was looking good with his votes. But, if Sloonei is mafia and Lime Coke is town: jjj’s votes don’t look good anymore. He still voted Sloonei on day 1 but not unusual for mafia to vote a teammate on day 1 when not in ...

@Sloonei when I voiced concerns about you and voted to eliminate you on Day 1, I don’t recall you engaging with that at all. It’s unusual for JaggedJimmyJay to place a vote for Sloonei. I would think it’d be newsworthy. What gives? I was hardly here at all Day 1. If you voiced concerns about me, I ...

Delta (831)

this guy

Sloonie probably is closest to being in the POE since he was pushed on the most. JJJ hasn't received much attention in terms of scumreads and kinda doesn't have an excuse. This may be an important point. Sloonei's position has been more tenuous, and from that perspective there ought to be some degr...

Thank you. I can at least get a quick glance to see if there's a similar vibe or dynamic between you two

Like all of this... just for bottom 2 of Delta/Me. I was massively disappointed because I also feel like FS even when she has limited time will still make herself to be obvious town and have something to give that helps town out. And to add to that: Find me as town because she has a good read on me...

Show of hands. Is the following statement valid to you, yes or no? If fingersplints was mafia, she would be more attentive to the game and also have a teammate pushing her into the thread to post and/or vote. This is absolutely true I appreciate that Roxy was willing to make this assertive judgment...

I wonder about Sloonei not killing me after Day 1 if he's mafia. That'd be a choice. Perhaps the G-Man kill offered a different out without being so blatant.

Lime Coke wrote: ↑Sat May 25, 2024 5:48 pm Bleh, good lord.

What's your gun-to-head impression of fingersplints? Just give me a take on her tone if nothing else. How does she feel to you?

Sloonei was off on Day 1, and I probably awarded too much credit for the G-Man kill.

I was hoping to be dead today. I have a trip coming and need to prepare.

I may vote reasonably early anyway. I think towns often make the mistake of waiting too long with locked votes and it prevents them from being able to operate with the information that the lock provides.

I feel great with a Delta vote today. Assuming that's right, I think the next move is Sloonei. I would also consider Caffeine-free Lime Coke. I don't think Roxy is mafia. JJJ could always fool you, but I don't think this is it. fingersplints is perpetually in the maybe category. Epi's legacy. splin...

I will acknowledge I have probably suffered a bias from my previous game, since this one feels quite like a repeat. sig was my own good town read in a dead thread, and he ended up being mafia. Mafia have an easier time clearing the bar in these games.

Okay well. My vote is on either JJJ or Sloonie. Main reason being that these two should know 1. How to find someone that is obvious town like how Delta was and 2. That the POE might be massively fucked and something MIGHT need to change about it. All due respect, but I don't think anyone in this ga...

There's no real specific thing, just more of a general insight into how he's played. I guess a good example would be looking at how he's approached me; as a wolf I'd half expect him to let me die, go "wow look Delta townread me so I have to be town" and use that legacy to push misvotes el...

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2024 4:25 pm @Delta what do you believe Lime Coke has done in this game that is fully incompatible with his mafia-aligned play?

This question is pretty essential moving forward if you're town, Delta. Sense of urgency.

@Delta what do you believe Lime Coke has done in this game that is fully incompatible with his mafia-aligned play?

It’s difficult to reconcile their combined solving immobility. They are tin men in need of oil cans.

Mainly because of how I approach solving clashes a bit with looking at who would/wouldnt make the kill from an emotional perspective. I prefer looking at things more tangible, even though as I've said for a lot of yesterday I do want to factor in what Long Con said. If I were to disregard that and ...

Thanks for that @fingersplints. It's helpful, and I hope everything's okay today as much as it can be.

Delta had 57 posts on Day 1 and 19 since. He's fallen off of a cliff, largely since Long Con blew up with the G-Man kill dynamic.

I sense wind being taken out of sails.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 10:50 pm Does Lime Coke’s treatment of Roxy look like a potential teammate paring?

It'd be pretty on-the-nose. I wouldn't hard dissociate them though. At least based on today's dialogue

Epignosis wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 10:30 pm Would YOU kill him?

No. I don't think so. I won't say I would slam any strategic door shut, but I would need a really good reason to do that.

I don't quite feel Sloonei and Delta as a team, given the former's dismissal of the latter. The first post Epi raised in the larger post a bit ago is one I read in the opposite direction, for example. That wouldn't prevent one or the other being mafia though. How do you feel about the "would/w...

[VOTE: Delta] aubergine

@JaggedJimmyJay why is Epi town? A trustfall entry would be: - Long Con was likely correct that Epignosis is low on the likely to kill G-Man list, and by extension he'd also be low on the kill Long Con list. - Doesn't strike me as particularly aligned with anyone; he's just kind of doing whatever h...

That's my first instinct about splints.

Confident rated at fart/10.

Give my previous question a crack for starters

Well LC connection was actually both town but neither of us got anything done. Annnnnnd of course I can't catch a wolf to save my life so yeah. I probably should've just taken the death and moved on because I can't do anything positive in these games. If you're town, you've got a whole day 3 in fro...

Thanks, JJJ

What makes you sure it's deliberate?

I don't figure it is, that's what I mean.

I'm not sure skipping a vote deliberately is DrWilgy's style. But he's not a town read

Sloonei wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 4:47 pm Nobody in this game has done anything that should earn them a strong town read except for maybe Long Con. We have 481 posts and Day 2 ends in 10 minutes. It's been a game very bare of action. Nobody deserves a vehement defense.

I may include Epi, but otherwise agreed

Delta wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 4:44 pm He feels far more invested in this than he would a standard wolf game

That's not the term I'd have used (invested)
