The Syndicate

Post gifs at you own peril. I may snap and post anime gifs.

Correct. It is a check-in phase, for the most part, though you're welcome to start hunting as you see fit.

I’ve been playing ww for 6ish years. I tend towards a townread focused approach, though to a greater degree the smaller the game. Pretty interaction focused. Think people would generally define me as a bit of a slow starter but if I’m at the quicker end of that range really it depends on what you define as slow.

Enjoy both alignments, preference swings around a little at any given moment

I’m 20 if you ask a realworld calendar and in my 800s or so if you ask how many birthdays I’ve had

Day 0 is for checking in. It only lasts ~24 hours. We’re free to do things, obviously, but we can’t vote or anything yet. It’ll be Day 1 soon.

I guess D0 is for picking our tri?

If anything the syndicats should be introducing ourselves to the fresh meat, seems like proper housewarming etiquette

Hi I'm turnip Head, I've been playing for ten+ years and still have no idea what I'm doing

But if you ask someone else they'll probably say I'm some diabolical mastermind

That's a very scummy suggestion Turnip Head

I really like the song Dissident by Pearl Jam so I'm joining The Dissidents. I only want decent blokes to join my tri.

Sweet song. Town read.

Kinda disappointed nobody’s asked me why I chose nightwings, ngl

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed

Nl is moving after picking possible or? Rip

Should be, I still have the option to move my vote still

moving should be possible

DAT AZZ

[mention]Lissa[/mention] should be able to move onto nightwings now

i wonder if most of the mechanics of the game are already spelled out in the OP or if there are likely to be hidden ones coming up later

Sick sick

I’ve been playing WW since April, this is my sixth major game. I’ve played primarily on Civfanatics Center and a bit on MU. I’ve played a single phase with visor and half a phase with Mac, though I have some general background on good chunk of people in the game from hanging out in champs spec chat. Good luck to you all ^_^

Seems like brainbomb really

Half want to think the cronyism thingo mildly >rand v but also feel like it seems almost overplayed a bit

i believe the sum of interactions is me quoting your post and saying: "ah you're a summary post guy"

lol.

im interested to see how you do in a game like this offsite.

aren't you interested in how teh setup plays out?

maybe its cause ive already played the game but i do hope theres some bumps in the road to spice things up

anyway I mostly liked macdoug, nutella, sloon, and kza so far
I dont think theres a wolf in that bunch

I dunno, maybe. If the setup has to be amazing then Id assume its gonna be nostalgia anyway. I dont know what this is.

Beware nutella. She just spun us around on her little finger last month.

I’d be kinda surprised if there were additional mechanics. There’s already a good chunk of complexity considering the fractional voting system, a presumably high amount of night actions considering the Glory stat exists, after-death interactions via Hope, a whole economy system with sols and the slugmarket that’ll add on items that have abilities and will affect all the other systems. There’s not much room for even more systems.

There might still be some sorts of events or something that helps connect already-existing systems though, maybe an event like triumvirates pair off against each other and compare some stat, higher sum wins sols or other events of that nature?

having four what seem to be described as at least decently strong villa reads at this point feels a bit incongruent with the rest of the mindset you’ve showed up to now

I could see it. I saw it at first. she was kinda just poking but not punching. I see more skepticism and pondering out loud now howevet

Most people have said my approach was reaching or insane.

you otherwise read as aggressive, distrustful, and not wanting others to trust too easily

the other thing is I do rock the boat, and I also try to at least put out some modicum of the folks id like to see stay alive

I think nutella has been quite silly so far.

yes and no.
I still allow people through. and there are built in synaptic reasons why. some of those reasons might be rooted in me just trying to manage myself more than me being right.

i think brainbomb is a villager but its light

ymmv

simply put, earning a townread from moth is not like winning american ninja warrior. you dont have to be mega ultra impressive for me to see it

It's a good thing to ask because their answer may help me determine my level of suspicion.

What is a brainbomb?
