The Syndicate

With apologies for not providing any specific quotes (none stood out as the best examples), I just ISOed Dom and like him. His analysis doesn't have any recognisable agenda. In fact, he mostly just picks a fight with Rabbit. Scum!Dom surely tries to play with his teammates a bit, at least to the poi...

I have a feeling my head is about to roll this phase lol, that's super lame At the end of last day, you voted 112 last minute (well, 7 mins left) without any justification I spotted, nor any real build up to it I spotted. Drago then flipped red. This therefore looks like you were possibly trying to...

But to reiterate my scum read bottom group is Dom, Nova, Quin, with my upper group as Rej/Colin, LLD, Sprit. You, Epi, iaafr, Mac, ES, 112 as my null+ or higher groups. Michelle and Jack are my nulls. This is...safe. (Did someone say that to you earlier, or was that about something else?) Is this j...

I would be very unlikely to vote for Rabbit, Mac, Michelle, Nanook, or Pawn today. (I have a deepwolf suspicion or two in that pool, but am nonetheless very unlikely to vote there today.) As a general principle I don't support voting for low-posters without just cause, and as such would also be unl...

Yeah, this is what I'm getting at. I'm just working from the top down because I feel my reads are not widely shared.

But this is a scum's dream gamestate - we can't effectively coordinate a town vote, and all votes are secret, so the 3-4 mafia likely to be in here can stuff the vote privately. (I'm assuming they still have day chat.) Like, if we don't try to coordinate at all, we could spread the votes across a wi...

Does anyone else feel like we, as a group, are doing a poor job of actually scumhunting today? A lot of the discussion has been only tangentially helpful in rooting out the mafia amongst us. I know we can't narrow down to a couple wagons as we approach EoD, but we can still ISO and build cases and ...

We've got several low posters, replacements catching up, Mac dealing with sick children, Nook refusing to engage, Pawn without a laptop, LLD flipping out...

Who's left who wants to play with me?

(Although I'll be in and out over the next few hours myself.)

@iaafr Remind me why you think individual Syndicate players besides Epi look scummy? Like you, Pawn, 112 and Radishes have all expressed that your suspicions mostly lie on Syndicate regulars. I don’t have any Syndicate regulars in my scumpool. What am I missing? To clarify, I said most were on my P...

Let's be real. Half the reason we're all following this is entertainment value, the other half is that most of us all have multiple syndicate scum reads already so there is no issue with following along for now. Yeah, this. I'm not actually going to focus only on Syndicates, but they're mostly in m...

Heh, I had the 'Syndicates = scum team' theory awhile ago. I didn't voice it because, you know, it's not the case. I do wonder, though - a lot of low posters are Syndicate regulars I think. Were they just caught off guard by such an active game? It really hasn't been that active of a game though. N...

Today was a circus. I would not have been surprised to have looked out into the hall and spied a juggling bear on a unicycle. I saw plenty else. :why: Did someone say you were a teacher? Me too. I empathise. What's your subject? Trained for History & English, but these days teaching History, Ge...

@all - I think I'm going to drift off. Ping me for whatever.

I guess we're all waiting for Pawn to get his laptop.

Some random questions:

Thoughts on Nova?

Who are your remaining nulls?

Don't be specific or anything, but do you think you know how you're going to vote yet?

I still think 112 is town and radishes is scum. there's just like a perspective and priorities sniff test he doesn't pass for me I also don't trust 112s read on radishes because people with meta on each other often don't have better than Rand rate at reading each other. I got burned recently by tru...

It's good to be on a laptop again. Suck it, mobile phone users.

Gonna make dinner now.

Actually, first I'll quickly make my position clear: A) It is ridiculous to suggest scum weren't on the 112 wagon, regardless of 112's alignment. If anyone was actually here and watching in real time (I was keeping up, but was only half-focused because of real life matters) then at 7 mins to go the...

how's it a minor point if it's a key assumption in your eod analysis Yeah Radishes is full of shit regarding "I wasn't pushing the Godfather thing." I guess I should go back and look at what I said, but in my mind that was just one more reason to confirm my suspicions, not a 'key assumpti...

I haven't been reading pages I missed does anybody scumread epi other than lld Since Evenstar brought my name up, let me reiterate: I think Epi fits into a scum!Eva world because I felt his analysis of her interaction with Drago was poor, and I think Epi's vote on 112 could potentially read as a sc...

Rabbit, your little bounce-around-scumreading-everyone thing is fine for D1, but we have half decent info now. I expected your thoughts would expand accordingly. You're a perceptive player when you want to be and I respect that. Why do you call my analysis agendaed and distorted? Just because you d...

I forgot my coat at work. Being Canadian in a mild but wet climate means you sometimes forget about things like temperature. My hands are cold and I'm warming them up by typing this post.

don't think im doing anything substantive today other than what I've said scumlist still lld radishes and then Dom or quin or pawn idk lld's scumread of epi still exaggerated as well as her reaction to me disagreeing with that read radishes eod analysis still agendaed and distorted Dom's push on me...

“Poorly worded” implication that Eva was “chaos posting” and therefore scum. Talk about a smear campaign. We’ve gone over your post on Eva. I didn’t like your post(s) on Epi where he did long interactive isos and came to some sort of conclusion about the alignment of each player. I think they make ...

At some point I'm going to recalibrate and try to establish a worldview from an opposite PoV of what I have now.

But first I need to work some more, make dinner, etc.

... man, I really wonder what chaos is currently occurring in the other thread The majority of players just vanished Did someone die? Multiple someones? Were we announced as having moved or did we just vanish with no explanation? Are there scum there? Are there scum here? Probably there are scum in...

One other question, what are we thinking set-up wise in terms of team numbers? I’ve seen references to 8 scum but do we think 1 team? Indies, etc. ? There was mention of a 3P role in the old thread. I don't recall specific numbers on how many scum. Drago asked iaafr if he's 3rd part in one post, i ...

I do find it amusing how the three of four people I suggest had scummy votes at EoD are now throwing shade back at me for it. (+Rabbit, but he's thrown shade at everyone in the game twice over by this point.) Either I'm a genius who has half-solved the game or I've taken a wrong turn somewhere along...

Boo. If you're town, you're not playing to your win con with this attitude.

Lol, Jack launching a smear campaign against me.

Epi, Eva, Jack, Nova ^contains scum, maybe even more than one triggered.gif Why? I townread everyone in this pile except Nova, who I don’t really have a read on. That's based on who voted against Drago and who is in this group. I hesitate to be more specific about which ones I'm leaning more towards.

Nanook, I really want to scum read evenstar but no one else seems to agree. Why not?

What's a clerb and can I be in it.

Ugh. Phone posting is the worst. I'm going to stop.

Not me. Don't like cheese full stop.

Welp, Dragomir then. Not sold on a 112 lynch. Beyond the reason supplied here, I have no idea why Radishes voted Dragomir. There were 30 players in the game and my time is limited. I paid little attention to drago but I liked who was on his wagon more than who was on 112's. I had wanted a TSP lynch...

radishes my main issue with your EOD analysis is that you seem to be taking it for granted that scum thought saving dragomir would be a longterm good plan and worth conspicuously saving despite his apparently horrible standing which would imply he wouldnt last more than 2 more phases imo seems like...

Anyway Epi's posts are performative, not informative and they're designed to seep into the nature of people's want for content. It's IIoA. They say many words, but not much in the end. More than that, they're doing the Bullets for Bullets tactic I outlined in my scum guide. It feels like the goal o...

Game isn't until 8:08, so I have ten minutes. Epignosis Voted many hours before EoD – only reason I could see was in a later readslist: “Eh. Would lynch. (Great start, right?)” Was around at EoD and barely engaged with the Drago/112 wagons – didn’t even vote Drago to self-preserve when he was brief...

epi did some nice analysis posts that you could probably play off of but yeah not rly i guess Having read them, I have a read on Epi but I'm not allowed to say it in isolation because that breaks the rules. Pretty sure you're allowed to say if someone is town. In fact, I'm pretty sure you're allowe...

I've seen a few things directed my way; I may or may not have time this morning to get to responding to them before work. I'm a bit taken aback no one is seeing EoD as I did. With under 10 mins to go there was a sudden push of votes that nearly prevented Drago (the Godfather) from being lynched. The...

For now I think I trust Rabbit, Mac, & Nook the most. I kind of want to like Dom too but will need to put any read on hold till we see more. There are too many unknowns in this group. I fear that this is going to become an even 'smaller' group prone to manipulation if we don't get some more inpu...
