The Syndicate

Okay thanks for clarifying gender @Sloonei I'm saying if you were mafia it could have been a strategy to say you were a noob, however you said you were not a noob this was something I noted as being a more civilian/ independent action who is attempting to stake a claim so to speak much like what CO...

At the college stealing wifi and arranging a new ISP. Missed this post earlier. What do you mean when you say people are circumventing your methods? What are your methods and how are the being circumvented? Am I one of the people who is doing this? http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t486/XGAm3RX/V...

My PM was full of stuff about stopping time, a second day will follow, and a lot of conditional stuff about 'if lynched' or 'if they die'. And something about a song cycle. +1 I was interpreting this as the anti-Joshua. Lynch him and you get another day. I also got these things in my PM. I picked 25

Sloonie has contributed alot some fluff some not I find it interesting he says he isn't a noob. You would think if he was mafia he would say he was a noob so any slip ups made could be blamed on his newbieness. Are you suspicious of a Gumshoe/Cobalt mafia team or were you just pointing it out in ea...

He didn't so much as defend me as he pointed out that my logic wasn't flawed like MP seemed to be trying to make it appear. I didn't really think much of it but I appreciated the validation. Anyone wanna pick my brain while I'm around for a few hours? You've now offered a seeming defense of Gumshoe...

Fair deal. I'm excited to meet a player who makes drafts of posts

@ Cobalt: You also never answered my question about Gumshoe last night.

You seem keen to settle on a lynch very early in the day. What about all the other players in the game?

I also deal in profile activity from time to time but most of you seem to be already circumventing my hunting methods for that angle. It also doesn't help that in 90% of the games I play I can't help but see most day 1 talk as baseless banter. Game doesn't really start until day 2 for me. What do y...

I like a good story

I'm reading Paradise Lost mainly because i'm about to graduate college with a degree in English, but i've gone my entire academic career without reading it, one of the biggest fixtures in the English canon. It did not feel right. I have enjoyed it so far.

Epi is reading as standard throw-everything-at-the-wall Epi to me :| I had a brief exchange with MP, went after LC for how he characterized it and construed his purpose in commenting on it, and I'm also suspicious of S~V~S for reasons I gave yesterday. Is "throw-everything at-the-wall" ho...

you're the mod!

I believe everything Dragon is saying and don't think his asking for a replacement should be a factor in anyone's read of Canucklehead.

my laptop's last leg is on its last leg, so i'll be relying heavily on phone posts in this game. please bear with me and my one million typos.

Hey Gamer Guy what do you make of this day zero? Jesus Toast all around. Personally I don't really start playing until day 2. I work better with hard facts and analytical data. Occasionally the classic freduian slip. For now none of this shit really means anything, but it may be useful in hindsight...

Brock Holt finally did something yesterday to make the Red Sox worth watching this year. Kinda reminds me of last year, when Brock Holt was the only thing that made the Red Sox worth watching.

I need help, Syndicate! I just got back from a wonderful two week vacation during which I did no reading at all. Before I left, I had just finished book 6 of Paradise Lost. While I was on vacation, however, I found in a book store "The Adventures of Tom Bombadil" by JRR Tolkien, and obscur...

what are you so scared of, little puppy?

Welcome Canucklehead.
Peace out Dragon, and good luck in your other game. I look forward to playing more games with you in the future. Sorry you had to leave.

What role do we all think our positions in the poll played in the PMs we received? I think the numbers might correspond to roles. Not necessarily in order (i.e. role 1 on the list might not be number 1 in the poll - they could have been randomized), but just because I think my PM was a role descrip...

I was going to try playing in two games for the first time as well, but the other game i was in, i got thrown in Day 4 as a replacement for a scum player (our dear friend Turnip Head) who already had 3 votes against him before I even got in the game, and was pretty much everyone's top suspect (not ...

but... but, Dragon! :'(
just get lynched day 1 of your other game.

For the most part though it is too early for me to form reads unless something crazy happens. As for LC and Epi, idk I think they're their usual zany selves, could be any alignment.

Is there any more to your seeming suspicion against SVS, or is it just a hunch at this stage?

As a follow up to my last post, discussion of game mechanics and ideas can be just as important as discussion about players and neither one should be looked down upon. It's important to get a good balance of both, I think, especially in a game like this one. My above post directed at nutella is just...

I don't get the Hedgeowl suspicion at all. She posted while catching up and gave her input on a couple main discussions. None of her posts look particularly bad to me, just kind of average minimal-but-sufficient participation. I guess I understood LC's point (though it was regarding SVS) about comm...

I find it interesting that Long Con has decided to name me as a suspect because of my Gumshoe posts. I'd like to hear more on that.

I would add to Turnip's post that in Hedgeowl's third post, she seems to state that MP's rainbow list is something worth taking note of, but all she goes on to say is that it made her laugh.

@ Golden - Why are you inclined to lean civ on Gumshoe?

Gumshoe's follow-up to that post is also a bit shady, in line with the other one. Backtracks on any possible stance, juet trying to figure things out. I have an early suspect. I fail to see what's suspicious about this conversation. MP asked if it's reasonable for Cobalt to suspect Devin under the ...

Is it bad etiquette to comment on a discussion not involving yourself here? If so, I may be in for a world of hurt trying to keep my head down and eyes forward. I felt MP proposed a thought-provoking question as to whether or not it makes sense to assume other players could be using similar tactics...

My eye is on Devin almost immediately because of that joking truce thing. Mafia Cobalt tries to jokingly buddy up to people to see if they'd be receptive to it or not. :eye: Here's the general rule I use with new players. If it comes down to a vote that's based on very little, I'll probably avoid g...

I thought this post from Gumshoe was the most interesting thing during the zeroth Day: My eye is on Devin almost immediately because of that joking truce thing. Mafia Cobalt tries to jokingly buddy up to people to see if they'd be receptive to it or not. :eye: Here's the general rule I use with new ...

oh neat. hello day 1.

That is an inordinately high number of suspicions to develop in such an early phase of the game. I've never played with SVS before and do not know anything about their usual playstyle, so I do not know quite what to make of all this yet. But I've found this Day 0 to be pretty interesting.

How normal is it for people to be actively engaged in scum-hunting and gameplay during Day 0 around here?

I know this was somewhat talked about earlier in the thread by MP or someone, but is this Day 0 thing 48 hours straight into Night 0 or night 1 or day 1? I'm kinda confused, and can't find a FAQ that can help me out on this site. Any help is appreciated! i've only played one game on this site, but ...

MP's redonkulous rainbow list aside ( :haha: ) I feel like I've seen a couple of people making fun of his list and I don't really understand why. Keeping a list rating how suspicious you are of each person in addition to your notes seems like a good idea. Is it just because his is color-coded? i'll...

you responded to the post, therefore it's possible that somethig was learned.

You said you didn't know what to think about it. Why say that? Useless. Form an opinion and then state it when you have one. You had other things to say, but you decided to drop that in there and call it a "shoving match." Yes, that's what happened. I'm glad that you can play your way and...

I often share that I "don't know what to make" of things as a way of lettin people know that I'm working oj a theory but not ready or willing to share anything at the moment, while also inviting others to join in on the speculation. However, i have also seen that sort of vague statement as...
