I don't know or care about the role claims.
I don't really think he's suspicious, but he doesn't have a "I'm town" truth tell.
This game has no vanilla town roles. Falcon said he doesn't fake claim roles. He claimed a town role. So unless we believe his previous statement about having that meta was a lie, falcon should be treated as confirmed or nearly confirmed town.
I'm not saying falcon has a "no lie" meta. I'm saying he has a "no fake claim" meta. Those metas exist, I've met people with them in other sites before.

Re: Pandas vs Trash Pandas [Day 1]
I mean they won because town misyeeted almost every time. They were going to hit nutella sooner or later, it was just a matter of making town use all their resources.Urist wrote: ↑Wed Feb 09, 2022 8:44 amScum won by shooting nutella on n7 so clearly it didn't work lolDyslexicon wrote: ↑Wed Feb 09, 2022 5:07 am I don’t remember what we did mech wise last time, but I think it worked-ish.

Iirc maybe nutella could have survived a day longer depending on luck, but at that point, it was mainly on town for letting the situation get that risky to begin with.
So yeah we don't win this game just by keeping nanook alive, we have to take down mafia before they kill all our doctors.

Re: Pandas vs Trash Pandas [Day 1]
Rethinking this. It might not be worth trying to save anyone other than Nanook. In terms of actual value gained by saving other people, we would need 3 successful saves in order to increase our number of miselims from two to three.
Given this, I'm tempted to say we should just do the d3 method because it's prob the only one everyone will be able to understand.

I think it's gonna be extremely hard for town to win if all nightkills succeed.

I like this plan maybe increase it by 1 just in case someone misses night action or mafia have some hidden block?




Re: Pandas vs Trash Pandas [Day 1]
Trash pandas don't have a block assuming the setup is open.
Worst risk is we nominate a trash panda to protect NANOOK, in which case we'll rely on our randing.

I am not a mechanical player and if this game turns out to be a game of maths and probabilities then I will follow the plan approved by Nanook
Re: Pandas vs Trash Pandas [Day 1]
Also I totally should’ve read the rules before starting since lol wtf is this.
But also oof so glad I’m not the red panda we’d be dead by like day 3 somehow
Also also, is it accurate to say if we don’t use our actions it’s randed? If so wouldn’t it make the most sense for only like 3 ppl to target nanook and nobody else does anything so it’s totally random

Why DDL?
His opening posts were somewhat pandery (no pun intended), and his most recent sarcastic post towards Guillo seemed kinda out of left field, but it's something that a couple other people had done earlier in the day in some capacity, and to me felt like it was an attempt to feed off that chaos.

Dice roll + conservative extra protection is my vote. Ensures safety for Nook, doesn’t give too much away.
Extra saves increase our standard deviation (we need exactly 3 saves in order for saves to be optimal) - Saves early in the game are more valuable than saves later in the game because you get better value on the save you used, and it reduces the probability each player needs to save at night.
So for saving:
- Prioritize Nanook saves
- If you roll No Save, you can choose to save another player but consider the three following points
- 3 saves required to make a difference
- prioritize saves on even nights
- prioritize saves following a miss-elim
- prioritize saves early in the game
This should allow for the go-getters to have some room to play the game, while still fitting into a mechanical box. I don't know how to calculate the probability of hitting enough saves to make a difference, there are too many variables for my limited knowledge of statistics.

Re: Pandas vs Trash Pandas [Day 1]
Why do we need all of those docs on days if the kills are in the night? Also as far I understand, mafia has double KP on even nights, so we just need three docs on even nights and ine doc protecting each of those three docs. We decide who the three docs are on Nanook and the other docs may randomly decide who of the three docs they save?Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Wed Feb 09, 2022 6:46 am This game has a limited post count.
Some people are burning their whole limit talking about mech and later on they will be able to use that as an excuse not to scumhunt.
I'd kill one of the people doing that. [VOTE: NAA] aubergine
As for the mech, here are my two cents.
Nanook needs to be protected 24/7. I think the safe number is 5 docs on odd days and 6 docs on even days. We can do a little less if we think the entire mafia won't get on the doctor block. Maybe 4 and 5. I'll volunteer for the doctor block today if nobody else will, but we should rotate.
Everyone else should protect conservatively, so we don't waste our protects early. Do not announce whether you are protecting or not, and who. Just do what you feel like and be cautious.
I dont understand why nanook needs more than 3 per night?

Re: Pandas vs Trash Pandas [Day 1]
Would everyone be ok with pre-rolling their saves/no saves? What I mean by this is, privately roll & note down whether or not you're saving Nanook at each Panda count so that we can answer any how to questions during the day and nobody is stuck thinking about this at night.
Also, it allows people to start privately forming ideas of what they're going to do with their saves... We can even probably set objectives like "if you have more than 3 saves by day 3, you should use one randomly... Etc... That way we can communicate all of the mech during the day, all calculated - none revealed. Don't soft claim, don't hard claim.

I don't know or care about the role claims.
I don't really think he's suspicious, but he doesn't have a "I'm town" truth tell.
This game has no vanilla town roles. Falcon said he doesn't fake claim roles. He claimed a town role. So unless we believe his previous statement about having that meta was a lie, falcon should be treated as confirmed or nearly confirmed town.
I'm not saying falcon has a "no lie" meta. I'm saying he has a "no fake claim" meta. Those metas exist, I've met people with them in other sites before.
This looks like a wolf with TMI with a pocket attempt on Falcon.

https://rollthedice.online/en/cdice/1d100
^ Everyone should go here and roll 1d100 for each panda count (odd nights) and each panda count (even nights) If you roll below the threshold, you no save. If you roll above the threshold you save. If you roll everything in advance as I did, you can start to form an idea of whether or not you have saves to spare.
I already posted the values to pass... If @NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME is in agreement, then I think we should proceed to prevent/minimize mishaps.

But also oof so glad I’m not the red panda we’d be dead by like day 3 somehow
Also also, is it accurate to say if we don’t use our actions it’s randed? If so wouldn’t it make the most sense for only like 3 ppl to target nanook and nobody else does anything so it’s totally random

[Link] Rules and Guidelines on The Syndicate
Also always be mindful of the culture of respect that must be maintained in all Syndicate spaces at all times, to include this game thread and any external communication spaces relating to the game. Players must be respectful to one another, to the game host, to the members of the staff overseeing the game, to the game itself by way of its rules and spirit, to the Syndicate community in general, and ideally also to themselves. Respect is never optional. See our full manifesto on our culture of respect below.
[Link] A Syndicate Mafia Culture of Respect
- This game is divided into day phases and night phases. Day phases are when the Red Panda makes their choice of who to capture and release back into the wild. They must send a target to the host within 48 hours, or I will pick it at random. They cannot make a final choice BEFORE 24hrs of the day has passed but can pick at any time after that. Day ends (as it would a hammer) once they have chosen their target.
- Night phases are when the Giant Pandas and Trash Pandas send their actions. Actions will be accepted 23 hours after the end of day write-up is posted. No night posting in the thread. The Trash Pandas will have a 24/7 BTSC chat available to them. No one else will have BTSC.
- There will be a poll for voting on players to help Red Panda decide on a target, but it will have no effect on actual target of each day's yeet, and is used just to help organize the discussion. Voting in it is not mandatory!
- You must post at least 5 times per day phase and a maximum of 70 posts per day phase. Failure to post at least 5 times will be considered inactivity. If you are inactive on two different days, I may modkill you. No replacements will happen in this game.
- Double targeting is allowed.
- Do not engage in angle-shooting, which means using information from outside of the game to obtain advantage in it. That includes, but is not limited to, making bets or oaths in real life or posting screenshots to prove anything. I will modkill players who try break this rule to influence the outcome of the game.
- This is what the Giant Panda role card looks like:
