@tutuu thanks for the list. i like your projected thoughts which make me feel a bit better about you. im just really far behind

hyena might get anti claimed killed or something so let me press this button

[VOTE: Made] aubergine

i think he's probably telling the truth about being a architect-medium, this probably means there's janitors, that's always fun isn't it

has a past GoC game ever had multiple roles from the same game?

the bussing dayvig is almost certainly taking place here, lets be real, but perhaps nutella's janitor town vig might also be here? dunno

[VOTE: cat] aubergine I guess. I’m not totally sure I believe hyena right now, but I can at least move my vote and look elsewhere. Cat has not done much. We butted heads for a minute last night but nothing came of it. Let’s make something happen.

All roles were randomly assigned using random.org's List Randomizer. Period. I'll post the screenshot postgame. Now please stop asking me about that. Thank you!

I personally don't remember pretty much anything you've done. And you have a lot of posts. :ponder:
So i thought it would be funny to point it out since you are doing the same thing.

Why? Can you explain their meta? I'd say nutella is uncomfortable in the thread.
How much have you read?
Most of it, but i've skimmed when it got too memey.
I feel as though I have been heavily involved in the progression of this game.

What reads do you have to share with us?
The ones i have.
The reads you expressed are all of mostly general consensus. What kind of things will you/are you looking for to start covering more ground?

Can we just stop talking about roleclaims and other things that are 100% only going to favour the mafia and talk about these hilarious videos.

I’m p sure roles were designed INSPIRED by games/roles, they aren’t just carbon copies

So hyena claiming a role that’s similar to something that was in a game, that tracks

Claiming rafiki, a character from a game, does not

current bargain pool: [tutuu, LC]

would prefer a 3rd name so less chance mafia NK my slot

questions/concerns answered based on searching "alison" in the thread (if I missed something ping me):

- tim asks why I would claim as 3P, because mafia is forced to NK me and then I lose. answer: because protective roles exist, because my role has the power to redirect nightkills away from me baked into the mechanics, and because scum might not be a bunch of cowards and might try to power wolf and get the power given to them instead of taking the easy way out. I'm not contributing to the thread or doing any solving, so they would much rather shoot actual townies that helps them reach parity. at any rate, what alternatives do I have? if I try to play townie I get shot, if I play scummy I get exed. would much rather openly claim and try to get a free win, just like the original gambit demon did.

- sloonei is worried there might be dangers to my role I haven't disclosed. check shadow corridors for some suggested strategies to leash a 3P claim. also, tutuu suggested making me bargain with people in the POE, so if there's anyone who's going to suffer from taking that deal, it'll be scummy people anyway.

- general tinfoili from a couple of people that I could be mafia fake claiming 3P: I think it is actually fucking insane to win best mafioso award on the syndicate and then hard commit to a strategy that involves taking a completely hands-off approach to the thread that gives up all ability to influence it in any way in the future, on post 1. like, whatever WIFOM or trust or leeway I get from claiming 3P is not worth the ability to not be able to manipulate people and push a scum agenda by talking in the thread. #2435 by sloonei points this out.

see you all the next time I check in
There's nothing that says a fake can't surpass the real thing.

I don’t think it’s impossible that role characters are copied. For something like Lion King, I would expect the hosts to reuse characters from the game/movie rather than making up some off-brand characters like Pomba and Tamon.

I believe Hyena's claim since it would be a horrible tactic as a complete fakeclaim. I still don't know what kind of roles The Syndicate tends to put in their games, would a role that talks to the dead be an exclusively town role or is it a plausible mafia or 3p role here too?

So hyena claiming a role that’s similar to something that was in a game, that tracks

Claiming rafiki, a character from a game, does not
I don’t think it’s impossible that role characters are copied. For something like Lion King, I would expect the hosts to reuse characters from the game/movie rather than making up some off-brand characters like Pomba and Tamon.

would prefer a 3rd name so less chance mafia NK my slot

questions/concerns answered based on searching "alison" in the thread (if I missed something ping me):

- tim asks why I would claim as 3P, because mafia is forced to NK me and then I lose. answer: because protective roles exist, because my role has the power to redirect nightkills away from me baked into the mechanics, and because scum might not be a bunch of cowards and might try to power wolf and get the power given to them instead of taking the easy way out. I'm not contributing to the thread or doing any solving, so they would much rather shoot actual townies that helps them reach parity. at any rate, what alternatives do I have? if I try to play townie I get shot, if I play scummy I get exed. would much rather openly claim and try to get a free win, just like the original gambit demon did.

- sloonei is worried there might be dangers to my role I haven't disclosed. check shadow corridors for some suggested strategies to leash a 3P claim. also, tutuu suggested making me bargain with people in the POE, so if there's anyone who's going to suffer from taking that deal, it'll be scummy people anyway.

Why should we believe you are being 100% truthful about your role?
Do you intend to engage in any scum hunting this game?

tldr re me and wilgy: both me and wilgy are kinda just throwing votes around cuz it's fun. Hynea chose to vote me in a OMGUS type.

I want Hynea to give a read on wilgy
there is no rush, take your time and get back to things when you can.

Do you have any serious/confident reads yet?
uhhh yeah i think i can find a few

so tutuu is town, not cuz range, she can always make shit up, but i see passion behind the stories i didn't see in bread

mac is town cuz he think i'm bad and wants to push that

Wilgy i'm pretty neutral on, don't see an agenda, but don't see goodness either.

sloonei is very still comfortably in his town range, the way he's approaching me reminds me of bike. Could mean he's mafia and is trying to make me remember that, but also could just be how Sloonei towns. I actually don't know sloonei's scum moves now that I think about it...but if how he acted in Bike was consistent to how he plays when he isn't scum, he's deff town.

I think LC is town just based on my thread interactions with him. He reads like he did at the beginning of bread where everyone went after him because....? don't do that here.

but yeah. Hyena claimed i guess? sure why not
I did not play Bike.
christmas sorry, time is an illusion. Kyle was in that game too.

@Kylemii this read accurate to you?
by 'this' are you asking about sloonei's behavior in Christmas? I legitimately don't remember anything about that game other than choosing to kill sloonei over nanook after bussing both you and sig, and then scumslipping because of something marmot said. I basically played that whole game in a fugue state.

[VOTE: Made] aubergine

i think he's probably telling the truth about being a architect-medium, this probably means there's janitors, that's always fun isn't it

has a past GoC game ever had multiple roles from the same game?

the bussing dayvig is almost certainly taking place here, lets be real, but perhaps nutella's janitor town vig might also be here? dunno
I don’t follow, like, any of this.
hyena might get anti claimed kill so i lost interest in voting him

i voted made, another scumread

i think hyena probably told the truth about his role. medium - speaks to the dead. architect - connects two people on the phone to talk. i gave u that role in doppelgangsters. if theres a role that lets u speak to the dead that implies janitors existing

i asked if a past GoC game had multiple roles inspired from a single mafia game or did they spread them out as much as possible

finally i said the bussing dayvig from philosophrs mafia is almost certainly taking place here since its such a legendary role. in that game there was as also a town janitor vig, so i wondered if this is here too (explaining the need for hyena's role). i was under the assumption that roles are copied faithfully to the original roles
