The Syndicate

I was just about ask what our next game to fill will be? Steely Dan has been in sign-ups the longest, everyone who's available and not already signed up should rush over there.

I’ve gotta give Mac credit as well. I realized I wasn’t gonna be able to get really into this game, so my strategy was just “do what Mac says” because he seemed to have a grip on things. I took muugen down with me 100% because Mac said to.

Epi doesn’t do anything regularly.

I did not think town could win so convincingly in a game without role reveals. Nice.

Alright.

Why are we collecively certain that muugen is up to no good?

I can’t be scum because I don’t drink coffee.

Who would you go for after me?
Muugen. Then if the game wasn't over I'd probably be looking at Spacedaisy or Neverwhere.

Okay

Who would you go for after me?

Someone tell me what’s a thing I should do.

I switched from Jack to sabie literally at the last minute because I didn't want us to not lynch anybody.

i can't tell you what the poll looked like throughout the day.

Since you’re here, who do you suspect that isn’t me.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2019 9:07 pm Looks like I was almost lynched while out catching bagons.

Jack is Nazgul, confirmed

Neverwhere wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2019 7:24 pm Oh. The poll end time showed up in my time zone. I assume it was US time and that this would be going on till 5 am my time. That is nice to know.

You can correct this in the User Control Panel so that the site displays your desired timezone.

Unlikely. I’ll likely piece things together if I stick around long enough though.

novaselinenever wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2019 7:12 pm 2 straight days and Spacedaisy hasn't voted. Unfortunate or...

I would expect timid voting patterns to be less likely as a scum tell in this game compared to standard setups.

novaselinenever wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2019 7:09 pm I have 2 votes.

Well whatever!

Just realized the deadline is upon us so I switched to sabie to facilitate a lynch.

Doesn’t it take 6 to hammer today?

I do not deny the possibility of poop in Neverwhere’s responses to me, for example, but at the same time I am not ready to allege poop against them. I would merely suggest its possibility. I allege poop against Jack.

Why?
Oh the handful of players that I’ve interacted with directly, he seems the most full of poop. Plus he’s on Mac’s compatibility list.

He moved the goal posts on his shading of me in just a couple of posts, and it felt as though he was more concerned with painting me in a negative light than actually developing a read.
Is he on your compatibility list?

Who else is full of poop?

I don’t have such a list

I’ve interacted with like 4 people. Jack was the only one whose presence suggested poop to me.

Scum.

#downwithketchup

I have not read most of the thread and I do not intend to.

I am confused by everyone else’s confusion over my responses to Mac. It’s entirely possible/guaranteed thay I was missing a key piece of context, but I did not intend to tell him not to share intel. The entirety of my point was that he has already indicated that he had information, and that was enough for me. Sharing his specific role was not a necessary step.

Soup?
You say “Idk, Mac” several times but you also said “Don’t do it, Mac” here.

It’s not about knowing the setup. It’s about having a position that I disagree with and then walking it back and shrugging instead of supporting it.

He specifically asked for arguments to the contrary. Does “Soup?” strike you as an impassioned argument?

Yeah.

I haven't gotten to your claim yet but Nova's reaction to your hinting is townie and Sloonei's reaction to it is scummy.

I was dropped into the game like 2 hours earlier with the foreknowledge that I wasn’t gonna go all out, and I had not read anything except for the ongoing conversation. Mac started asking me for advice on something I had the vaguest understanding of. What did you want me to say?

MacDougall wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2019 10:37 pm Nova has been on a roll. Maybe he's right about sprityo and epi. Maybe they're both out here chaos posting for cover.

@Sloonei you should do your thing. I have given your life meaning.

I do not anticipate that my thing will be done in this game. That requires more time and energy than I can afford to put in.

Epignosis wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2019 10:35 pm I'm inclined to believe Mac 100% and here's why:

Mafia on this site are weak at lying. They are weak at coming forward with a bold claim and getting everyone to follow without worrying that someone is going to catch them. If Mac is bad, I'd let him win solely because he went against that trend.

I was just about to make a post saying that mafia might be more bold in this game than the standard syndicate game given the lack of flips. We can't connect teammates if we can't figure out who's bad. They can do things they ordinarily would not do.

But I was gonna say this in support of Mac's observation about Jack.

Lol what?
Mac has revealed Luna was a witch. So now we can look at who Luna is compatible with. Muriel was replaced by Sloonei because Muriel was absent. With no interaction to judge from Alina could conceivably had been teammates with Muriel/Sloonei.

Unless I’m mixed up bad missing something I thought this was straightforward. Am I confused?
Of course, they "could" be compatible. That's like default compatibility.

It's similar to scum-reading someone that hasn't posted. They could be scum lol
So you want to ignore a possibility? That’s seems incredibly shortsighted to me

That is not what he said.

Fair assessment.

Idk what else to say on this matter.
This is basically a description of every mafia game with disco role of any type ever. Thanks for the unhelpful fluff.

You're welcome.

I don’t know what you’re going through and I’ve put minimal thought into this game or its setup. Do what you think is best. You don’t need my input.
I asked for it though. I perceive it as a critical moment for the civilian win con and want a discussion.
Or we can trust you and lynch your suspect without having you claim. That you’re prepared to claim at all might be enough for me.
What's stopping a witch from fake-claiming an info? No flips, counter-claim get soup-killed.

Nothing.

You have strongly indicated that you have information.
There are only a limited number of roles that could gather information.
The hags can narrow their soup pool if you tell us what you are.
We can lynch one of them if your info is legit.
Or we can trust you and lynch your suspect without having you claim. That you’re prepared to claim at all might be enough for me.

Hold off for now.

So I should be night killed and take this knowledge to the grave rather than be soup killed?

Because I wanted to read you again before I decided if I was jumping to conclusions.

Basically epi shouldn’t do his “reword this to get under your skin” thing he likes to do with mac

If he wanted to ask why I think the brick lynch choice is something to look at then he should say so instead of being a prickly ass about it

Did somebody say... prickly ass?

Why should I care what brick thinks because of a tie / no-lynch? A decision had to be made. That doesn't make Mac a lock for civilian life.

I didn’t say lock

And i didn’t ask for your opinion

Perhaps today we should moan.
