could you each briefly summarize your past mafia playing history? How long have you been playing for? What site are you from? Have you played on the syndicate before? If no, are there any players in this game you have prior experience playing with?

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
Quin is being a carefree goofball, but he's also putting forth some good effort. I'm inclined to think he's good.
Jack...... On the surface seems pretty okay... I think. His post where he responded to my question about my meta pinged me a little bit because of how he changed his mind about whether I seemed genuine or not because i said "fuck" a few times and also "I'm rude now". It seemed a little bit not genuine change to me. Though, a baddie Jack trying to push suspicion on me in the middle of a discussion about how hard I am to mis-lynch due to how genuine I always seem would be kind of ballsy.
Jay.... good I think. You're doing the things that a good Jay does. My apprehensiveness of you in general from Bravo hasn't exactly worn off yet but my gut says goodish.
Jay, what are your thoughts on Quin and Jack?

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
Quin seems fine. He was obstinate in the face of my bossy ass, something I think is typical of his civilian play, and I like that he has continued to find ways into this thread despite Internet troubles at home which would leave him a reasonable excuse to slank off.
The nicest thing I can say about Jack's play thus far is that it has been confusing to me. I don't understand much of anything he has posted with my name in it -- griping that I didn't answer questions, discovering that they were close to pointless questions, needing prodded to actually click the past-game links I provided after he had asked me for scum self-meta himself, and then drawing parallels to the Phenon game to my early treatment of him that can't make sense with sock accounts. He's south of yellow on a rainbow.

I'd agree that he's more suspicious than the other minimal-posters. I agreed with your earlier reception of his first post, that it seemed a bit forced, and all we got tonight was a basic response to an @ tag.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
Update: as it seems Kyle has no idea what I am up to, and speedchuck is also not picking up the vibs I am attempting to spread around the thread I would like to update my people who seen sus list:
Mac, Dave, Nutella, Marmot.
They all make me feel icky.
Also, roll outing and hinting is rude, dumb, mean and other stuff, but I do still feel as if I have a personal connection with those players, both my fellow civs and those who try to sow evil into our syndicate.

Page 1 - Key take-aways:
I personally didn’t think much of this post from Kyle. To my mind, it looks like an attempt to appear to engage with his fellow players by giving them a task to perform. Subsequent comments in relation to his question makes it appear that he’s generating content without genuine engagement.
Don’t like this from Quin either. Quin’s far too good a player to fall for this and I’d frankly have expected better.
Sloonei buys into Kyle’s question and provides valid content - a good look from Sloonei here.Sloonei wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 1:29 amEarthrealm is the mundane sphere, the netherrealm is the underworld, the outworld is the great void beyond.

What are you going to base your vote off of?

Sloonei is town because he's already trying to facilitate true to form.
Quin is mafia because he called Kyle's question "good" without clarifying why he cared about the question or why it moved him.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
Page 2 - Key take-aways:
Continued discussion and conjecture about the role of the poll. If Kyle was trying to create a smoke screen, he appears to have been successful (not that the conjecture wasn’t without some level of interest).
MacDougall loses 10 points for reminiscing on the Star Wars game - my first here at The Syndicate and one I’ve spent the past two+ years trying to forget.
I see the reasoning being put forward by those arguing for visiting the Outworld first up but you’ll have to forgive me my cautious nature here. If the logic being applied is that some advantage accrues to the ‘home team’ for any of these places, starting the game by giving an advantage to the bad guys hardly makes any sense to me. I’ll be taking note of those players that voted for this option first up - it might potentially be very useful later on.
Yeah, see this is the Quin I was expecting to find here this game. It’s early but I wonder if we’re seeing the beginning of an anti-Quin agenda in the making?

I find this question posed by Jay to Quin to be rather odd. MacDougall had commented earlier that he was thinking similarly to Jay earlier but for Jay to be suggesting some kind of relationship between he and Mac out of the blue like this seems ‘unsettling’.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 2:41 amWhat are your immediate impressions of Mac and I?Quin wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 2:38 amoh ok sorry ill do better next timeMacDougall wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 2:36 am Quin I'm sorry buddy but I actually had the same thoughts as Jimmy as I was going through page 1.

My comments are based on the posts that I read on PAGE ONE of Night 0, my friend. I don’t know whether Kyle is bad (I kinda hope not) but based on what I’ve read so far I am open to the possibility. Do you have anything to offer that would help me come to a conclusive opinion of him?

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
why LC?
I did not pay attention to Day 0. But, after being with Kyle in Vocaroo....I don't see this as a baddie tell for him. He seems to be the type of player that will focus on game mechanics and possibly overlook baddie hunting even as a civ. I think we should give him the benefit of the doubt for now. Kyle, show us your baddie slaying skills.Sloonei wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 10:58 pmYou've seemed focused on the mechanics of the game so far. I'm wondering what people have to say about that.Kylemii wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 10:54 pmcan i ask why?
the only time you've mentioned me negatively was after my first post for "trepid introductory nonstance", is that it?
also, while you're here, can i ask for a (brief) explanation of your read on Made and Made's read on you, from your perspective?
This description of Made has me questioning his goodness. Rainbow list on Day 0 sounds like a baddie move trying to get civ cred. The rest of these points don't help him as well. I have to be honest, I am not going back to read Day 0. And, I am not sure I can even catch up on the 4 pages that have already been written today. But from this post alone...Made doesn't look good. @Made...if you have a defense....please bring it.Sloonei wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 11:03 pm As for Made, I came out feeling good about him because he felt compelled to post a Day 0 rainbow unprompted. That's a bold move for scum to make. Since then, however, I've only had questions for him and none of them have been answered (I don't blame him for that, he's just been absent.) I can't offer a take on his read of me because I can't see where it comes from. He implied that he perceived me as feeling heat on Day 0, but I actually felt like I had achieved an inordinate amount of townie cred for that phase of the game. I don't know where any of his reads come from right now, and that's problematic. Maybe the boldness of the Day 0 rainbow was Made's principal motivation. He just played a solid scum game in Vocaroo but had his credibility destroyed when game mechanics all pointed to him. Maybe he drew another scum role in this game and wanted to come out swinging.

So I can’t figure out how to ISO him and I’m on mobile so everything might be a little clunky, but basically I was reading Made and Sloonei as w/w. Sloonei talked about Made with others but never directly as far as I can tell, which seems weird.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
He answered that, it's because I haven't contributed anything to the game. It's not because I'm bad, it's because I have nothing to say at this time. Only one thing has triggered me as suspicious, and it's Made's player salad a few posts back, asking like 10 people a different quick question. I'll vote for Made for now. Other than that, not much has pulled me into this game, just a lot of huffing and puffing that doesn't much strike me as particularly civ or bad.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
And, JJJ, I appreciate the token attempt to squeeze me a little with your vote, but you might as well try it somewhere else, because I'm most likely going to play how I'm going to play. My early game has been abysmal lately, and that last game really drained a lot of my Mafia passion away, so I'm going to participate where I can and not try to force it.

I'm voting him because he voted for a newbie.
Why should I NOT vote for Marmot?
To expand upon that, there have been a lot of votes-for-no-stated-reason in this topic. But when I post one, I immediately get FOUR 'why?'s. I want an explanation as to why my vote is so danged baffling.

Is role-hinting against the rules?speedchuck wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 12:35 pmIt would sort of be breaking the rules if that were the case though...
Some roles could prove themselves through judicious application of their powers, at least to targeted individuals. That's not the same as role-outing, for example saying "I am M. Bison".
I would not be opposed to some host clarification on that front.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
You reference the earlier thing, but then non-sequiter into reads. I'm ignoring whatever you're trying to do or say with connections and stuff. I recommend Kyle do the same. It makes no sense.Made wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 7:57 am Update: as it seems Kyle has no idea what I am up to, and speedchuck is also not picking up the vibs I am attempting to spread around the thread I would like to update my people who seen sus list:
Mac, Dave, Nutella, Marmot.
They all make me feel icky.
Also, roll outing and hinting is rude, dumb, mean and other stuff, but I do still feel as if I have a personal connection with those players, both my fellow civs and those who try to sow evil into our syndicate.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
Hard to say. I looked back at his posts, and while I don't see the progression of his train of thought, the suspects he goes after are off the beaten path. Or were, at least.
I wouldn't grant Wilgy credit on that alone. I'm still waiting for that spark that lights me up and makes me scream TOWN! Wilgy usually has that spark, IMO. I can usually get it from his tone. I can't in this game.
Not a priority target today, but someone I want to look at sometime. Wilgy often shows true colors under pressure.

Sloonei just votes for people. You don't. Also, I was first to ask. It's not 4x baffling. 3x not paying attention.speedchuck wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 12:37 pmYes.
I'm voting Marmot because I see no reason not to.
I'm voting him because he voted for a newbie.
Why should I NOT vote for Marmot?
To expand upon that, there have been a lot of votes-for-no-stated-reason in this topic. But when I post one, I immediately get FOUR 'why?'s. I want an explanation as to why my vote is so danged baffling.
As for Marmot, I have no reason not to vote for him at this time.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
[mention]Made[/mention] your reads are a point of confusion for myself and others in this game. I see that they exist, but I don't see where they come from. Your reads of myself and Macdougall are particularly confusing to me. When you have time, could you explain some of these reads in more detail?

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
I gave some thoughts on Dave last night, Dave hasn't posted much game relevant content, his only posts have been about the day 0 post and about a question I asked and @ tagged him in, about mafia history. I asked if anyone who knows Dave can say if this is unusual behavior for him but i don't think anyone's responded yet.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
I'm pretty much on the same boat, the made-sloonei thing seems like a non-starter, or at the very least not as immediately promising as I hoped. I don't really know what Made was trying to accomplish. For now, he and Sloonei have been put on the appropriate watchlists and I am moving onspeedchuck wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 12:46 pmYou reference the earlier thing, but then non-sequiter into reads.

But I expect you to vote for people to feel them out and to feel out what everyone thinks of your vote. A vote from you with little explanation is not unusual.
There are some players who throw around "whatever" votes so unexplained solo votes from Marmot or Doc don't ping me.
Speed is more deliberate and less experimental with his voting. That's why I questioned his unexplained vote.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
I realize I am behind and thing may have conspired that I am unaware of. But...As I read, I am just going to post my thoughts so I am at least getting something into the thread.
(Thank God for Saturdays and people with lives. Thread hasn't grown much. Two more pages.)
I could vote chuck. Three people inquire about his vote for marmot and this is his response.
Agreed. Wilgy often gets by just because of his meta of being apathetic. I could vote him today just because :PMacDougall wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 12:53 am Nobody is talking about Wilgy.
Vote 1 Quin. But yeah wilgy. That guy is bothersome.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
Everyone is being quite crazy with their votes right now. I don't like this lack of seriousness in the beginning of big games like this. Everyone thinks they can just play around and vote here or there and it won't matter much. Dudes (and dudettes), if we try hard enough, we might be able to get a scum on Day 1.

Still not too concerned about what I am reading of kyle. He is easily distracted and might easily lead himself down a rabbit hole. But this is just me thinking of his vocaroo play. I don't remember him from any other game.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 1:05 am If I do have a concern about Kyle, it'd be his continued obsession with Made's little Kyle/speedchuck comment. What is the urgency about uncovering that specific mystery?
This is all well and good @nutella...but who do you see as bad?Quin wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 1:21 amhey found the nutella postnutella wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 5:02 pm oh hey guys
most of the people who have posted so far look civ so far, but then most of them are the people who always look civ to me. Sloonei's alternate interpretation of Quin is interesting though and Quin is someone I'm always waffly on.
Made is zany as usual. Not sure what he's on about but I think he's just being Made.
Out of the so-far-civ-reads I think my strongest 3 are Sloonei, Kyle, and Jack. They're safe from my D1 vote at this point unless something changes.
oh and welcome new people! I'm getting tired of reading posts from the same 6-7 people so let's see some thoughts k

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 1]
My comments are based on the posts that I read on PAGE ONE of Night 0, my friend. I don’t know whether Kyle is bad (I kinda hope not) but based on what I’ve read so far I am open to the possibility. Do you have anything to offer that would help me come to a conclusive opinion of him?Glorfindel wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 9:26 am"fall for this" implies that Kyle is bad.

I think you've picked up on the gist of what I had to say about him. I did elaborate on his posts when talking to 3J before. If you could find that in my posts and give some thoughts that'd be sweet.
