even if we agree to No Chop

we can force michelle to redirect it to No Chop

right?

so we should always vote michelle and have her confirm her power?

if her power is confirmed i think shes always town

[VOTE: Michelle] aubergine

@Michelle Is this possible? Maybe you answered already.

Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Wed Mar 10, 2021 8:04 pm Anyways, you guys figure it out. The no yeet plan doesn't work when mafia can holster. Sorry for wasting time, I was trying to be ultra safe.

@Michelle needs to out in thread who she chooses in the poll. We can't enter the night with any surprises, I think. So just make it public.

If game doesn't end, I'll block whoever. I can't say who if I'm going to get tracked obviously.

And now it's late. Good night.

because I have no intention of being here for tomorrow's "hey maybe it's syn" boogaloo and people will absolutely waste a bunch of time tinfoiling me if I am still here

I have no value to the endgame

Syn wrote: ↑Wed Mar 10, 2021 4:15 pm if I survive, we are just going to be doing this again tomorrow and I have no interest in being a part of it

this happens every time I endgame and nobody ever listens to me because they think their fancy wishy washy play is going to get the solve and then they find out that keeping "idk that syn guy is an option" until the end wasn't helpful after all

Who is your top scum read Syn?

Barring any revelations, it's just a process of elimination for me now

You can see that as lazy, and it might be, but there is no strong reason to deviate from it (yet)

the plan I laid out a page or two ago will go a long way toward uncovering deception, as it clears you and Dizzy

I town-read Dizzy, but I also think Dizzy is best positioned to be a wolf who's had us fooled all along

with you and Dizzy hard cleared, with LC protected, with Alison town-siding, you're in a good position to win by attrition if not a slam dunk

chop you today, deflect onto me
clear dizzy, clear you, LC remains alive, Alison remains alive

if the wolf shoots Alison, it will kill tutuu instead because of her accepting the gambit (and tutuu should accept to ensure Alison's continued loyalty)

killing tutuu removes your tinfoil, so the wolf won't want to shoot there

so Alison is safe, LC is safe

Dizzy can be shot if he's not the wolf, but that still clears you because his block would have prevented w!michelle from shooting

you can be shot, but for what purpose?

that leaves kyle, tutuu, JPIC, and hyena for containing the wolf and the victim

do you want that on your conscience???

Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Wed Mar 10, 2021 7:08 pm I don't know if my point is coming across.

I have a really hard time finding anyone scum here.
I will never get there if it's Kyle, jpic, Tutu or Michelle. I don't think it's Hyena. My "biggest" suspects are Syn and LC, and they aren't even that big suspects.

One of the best things I can come up with is like "Maybe LC is godfather and lied about Ted's targeting and that's why Wilgy got my role. His choices for targets have been kind of weird." And that doesn't sound all that convincing to me. But I should probably ISO if I get the time tomorrow.

I know I've made my worry about Alison clear. I know Alison must find that annoying. I get it. I'm just trying to look out for town. But if everyone in this game is like, ok, let's just trust her and see what happens, then whatever. If we lose, lolk. If Alison wins and we get stuck with there actually being a mafia here, then great for Alison and we'll probably win too.

---

But please listen to this:

I'm pretty sure there's a way we can keep Alison on the bay AND keep confirming town/outing mafia.

Look. Alison said she protected me tonight, so she can definitely protect LC this night.

- I can roleblock someone. Let's say Syn. I announce who I block. If I die, that person is not scum.
- LC can track someone. Let's say me or Hyena.

If I die the bargainee/others ratio is 4/4 if Tutu doesn't accept.
Let's say both Syn and Hyena comes out clean from the night. THEN would you wonder if Alison is in fact a threat?

Like, how many confirmed town and in how many ways do we have to have before we start wondering if the confirmed non-town may be the one we should worry about?

AND - If Syn or Hyena or whoever we want to target comes out as outed mafia because they were tracked or blocked, then huzzah! We have the outed mafia. Alison has been telling the truth. We accept her bargain so that she reaches her wincon BEFORE we chop the last scum, since she's been so helpful all game. We can then literally just do a bargain with Alison so she wins and then yeet the last scum. Everyone wins!

It's literally just a matter of caution. And it's because I can't for the life of me say I have any one scum read that I have a lot of confidence in. And I had the same feeling last day.

Alison wrote: ↑Wed Mar 10, 2021 7:20 pm I know I'm not the one making the nightkills. Your concern is understandable but there are a lot of things pointing to the fact that I'm not a hostile 3P (I could rehash them here if you want but I think you already know them). I was on board with your plan when it looked like it was a mech lock since I trust this player list to give me my win con if I townside and they out the last mafia. The problem is that I'm no longer confident your plan outs the last mafia because of the possibility of 2 mafia and yes, you yourself being mafia. I know you are adamant that you are towncleared and are annoyed by scumreads on you, but I have the same feeling when you point fingers at how I could be dangerous despite a plethora of other factors saying otherwise.

If the game is harder than just "no exe and wrap it up, game is mech locked" then I have to complete my win con ASAP or I risk throwing away the win. If there is 2 mafia it's not a mech lock. Nor is it a mech lock if you're mafia. I know you are confident it is a mech lock but I don't see the game the same way you do so I have to play around the possibility that the game drags on and my bargainees start dropping dead or people turn on me out of paranoia, which means I want to accomplish my win con as soon as possible. This has been my goal from the start. That's why I don't support a no exe now.

Syn wrote: ↑Wed Mar 10, 2021 7:18 pm Alison has no incentive to protect anyone if we're going to refuse bargains. Critical flaw in your golden plan.

She does if she doesn’t want her bargainees to be nk by mafia

I'll probably continue protecting my bargainees regardless. My concern is that the game is harder than Dizzy makes it out to be, and you flip a scum and don't end the game - or don't flip a scum at all, and then suddenly everything is a mess and I am no longer guaranteed to win.

I am advocating for no exe, quite simply because it stops that from happening. You should be on board with this idea if you are concerned about the same things as me, because in a world where tomorrow is not a mech lock you do need the extra yeet to help resolve someone's role.

That's my case for no exe. I can't change what you - or more saliently, Michelle - decides, I'm just pointing out my POV and concerns.

Kyles role cant tell when he was roleblocked

He could have been roleblocked N2

If LC is mafia he played tetris with his mafia buddy marmot d2, and if so, marmot naturally lost on purpose, giving LC a 1 shot roleblock effective as of n2

I think LC lost the tetris game

We should determine if marmot would want to take the risk in giving a town a free roleblock. It's why there's a good chance syn is town for losing on purpose to give radish a roleblock

But if he's mafia who lied about losing, why would they decide marmot should lose instead of LC?

Did they think marmot was going down and LC had a good chance of being a deepwolf?

Day 2 Ends

It was during the same dream that Rob experienced another unusual mammal. This time it was a Marmot.

Atop a rock in the scenic mountains, it glared into the distance. After a moment, it uttered a piercing screech.

This caused a strange multicolored avalanche, in which the rocks became blocks and disappeared the moment they all lined up.

Rob woke up after this, reminded of a game he had seen on his dad's computer.

The storm was over, but it was still dark outside.



Did you know it takes ten blocks across to make a line in Tetris disappear? Marmot got ten votes across. He's going to disappear now.

Spoiler: show

Marmot was Alexey Pajitnov, Mafia.

As the developer of Tetris, you enjoy a mental challenge. Each Night, you will select someone to take you on. During the next Day phase, you and your target can attempt Tetris as many times as you like. Upon completion of a game, when it asks for your initials, you must enter the first three letters of your username on The Syndicate. You will then take a screenshot and submit this as proof to the hosts. Only one submission is permitted (subsequent submissions will not be counted). If your target prevails, he or she shall receive a one shot block to use the next Night (Get it? Block? Ha!). If your target fails to beat your submitted score, you will assume control of any and all abilities that individual has the following Night, which you may use even as you issue a challenge to a new target.

It is now Night 2. You have until 5pm EST to submit your Night action(s) to both hosts.
