The Syndicate

At least the power was already spent. I am now less concerned.

Hi Tim, I acknowledge you've posted about me.

If there's a redirector then LC and tutuu are back on the table.

And following up with the idea of putting LC and Tutuu back on the table kinda sucks.

I'm getting the impression that Dizzy and Wilgy are both town.

If it's a redirector then it would have to be mafia, but then how do you explain why mafia targeted tutuu for the thrown ball? That really seems bizarre.

I'm still a bit confused as to what has happened and how you became a role checker. Could you please explain what your original role was, when you holstered?

But what you found was my role, and I have already claimed it.

Sloonei went full sloonbot on LC. They are not w/w. I don't think it's in Slooneis MO to derpclear a teammate via super bus based on unknown information.

tutuu is probably still fine, the night I targeted her I also targeted nanook

I guess that's something only alison could answer about

for clarity, wilgy was redirected twice last night and according to ted I was redirected once?

me or all targets on ted were redirected* is that all correct

I kind of don't think Wilgy is scum tbh.
He could lie, I guess. But why make it so complicated. Also, I don't think he just pretended to not remember or understand my full claim, cause I've kind of spread it out here and there, only to pretend he got the full role and claim it on Michelle as a whole plot device. Seems too complicated. I think there is a red thread of something that actually happened here.

I'm also reading that Made is claiming yeet proof, and I just think that sounds not town in general. I don't know. I've been ok with Made most of the game though. Should probably read up on things before pointing fingers.

I'll do Sloonei spew at some point.

I think if Kyle was redirected it can't be on the night of LC,otherwise he would've been dinged later.

Maybe the nights he checked tutuu or Ted though.

What if there's a role that scrambles all actions on one particular night?

I feel there's too much weirdness going on right now.

Did Wilgy target Michelle on N4?

Sure. I have a modal power that I can choose between that affects others.
1. Target becomes a rolechecker
2. Target and I gain BTSC

I holstered early as I didn't want to give the power out willy-nilly
Kyle turned my power back on me turning me into a rolechecker
I checked Michelle which revealed your role apparently (I was not aware that you had claimed previously)
MR used their power to turn my power back on me again and I am currently still a rolechecker

I mean only alison could answer about it because it depends on how the powers work

I don't remember the specifics but in the gambit demon game I wasn't able to use the power I was given by the gambit demon (a role block) against the gambit demon because blocking their role would block the block I used because it came from LC

Alright, thanks. That's a weird power lol. This game seems to be full of them. I do believe your claim though.

MR does have a redirection role though. I think he has claimed it makes the target target themselves?

No.

Let it be known that I hate redirection roles of all kind

Yeah. Which is why I pushed Wilgy to out his check of Michelle, seeing as he should've checked himself. But I do believe him.

What night did Wilgy target Michelle?

What I'm processing now is this:
I can validate that MR is being honest with his redirect of me onto me.

Does w/MR claim that in hopes that the chaos would plunge the game further, or does t/MR claim that wanting to clarify wtf happened?

Further, why does MR wait until now?

There was no 'we'. That was Made's theory.

Are you gonna tell me what you found out about Michelle's role?

Not without Michelle's consent.

or, you can die I guess?

I'll take it to the grave then.

I'm fine with that. We'll chop you today and chop michelle tomorrow based on her and you being shady today.
thoughts on that?

Last night. N5.

So there seems to have been a redirect on Kyle (or something else happened) on N4, since he got a ding ding ding on Ted who is probably 3p.

And there seems to have been a redirect to me on N5.

But why spend a redirect on Wilgy when there's a claimed cop and doctor in the game?

This is all confusing. I'm sure that's the pain you all have been feeling though.

N1 Nanook
N2 112
N3 HK
N4 Ted
N5 Wilgy


112 confirmed something happened to them that Night. HK says his role is passive and wouldn't be affected. Ted was jailkept too so dunno what happened there.

Justplayingitcool wrote: ↑Tue Mar 02, 2021 12:43 pm So I guess that's our first evidence of redirection then? Which sort of bolsters that kyle could have been redirected from ted as well

unbelievable

I mean, it could just be a matter of action order. Maybe Wilgy's action has priority over redirect, though that seems a bit weird. But we don't know.

I'm sure it'll all make sense in the end lol

so i've ran through the whole ordeal and got none of it

can anybody explain how it's not feasible wilgy is a mafia rolecop and he may be telling half the truth about his claim?

i don't get why everyone switched their votes. he could've just rolecopped michelle as stated, and then whatever redirects don't prove he's town at all.

dizzy you seem to be the only person that probably has the amount of experience to understand that i'm most likely legit in all worlds and that's currently voting me

any way i can make you change your vote?

He says "well, if there's a redirector then..."

And HE is a redirector.

But since he never provides clear answers on whether his did or did not do the redirect on Kyle we are in fact left wondering about whether LC and/or Tutuu really should be "on the table."

On the contrary, redirection roles at 1000% necessary for role madness to work.

Cops, trackers, doctors, blockers, jailkeeps, etc are all super freaking powerful. On top of just having the ability to stop kills or make wolf yeets way more likely, townies tend to claim, use and react to mechanical stuff in a townie way. See: Wilgy and Dizzy today.

There's only two ways you can counter this as a host.

First, by giving the wolves a bunch of equally dangerous mechanical abilities. This can be fun in big games but in practice, leads to a lot of games that are imbalanced because the host improperly judges the sheer power of the roles on each side. Maybe your wolf conditional vigilante gets yeeted D1. Maybe they manage to get an extra kill off every night. Maybe your players don't appreciate that don cloak. Maybe wolves still just have no way to get a misyeet. This method is iffy.

Second, you can counter it by giving out redirection powers, especially town random redirectors on top of wolves targeted redirectors (controllers, commanders, controlled misdirectors, whatever you wanna call them) and busdrivers. The town is VERY likely to trip over itself with incorrect information, outting power roles and getting misyeets. Every cop check is a potential error. Every track could be wrong. Roles that default to unchoppable 100% accuracy wolf catchers become choppable and have a 75% accuracy instead. You get everything good about role madness while mitigating the bad.

Redirection roles are the key to good role madness.
