The Syndicate

I'm ok with it.

I'm not even joking. I'm just getting my way.

Of course, if Juliets continues to townread Nutella and Nutella continues to be unconvincing about Juliets, this is going to be a boring thunderdome.

I don't even townread Juliets, really. I just...don't get the case or the discrepancy between the length of the case and the confidence in it.

Cool. Private votes for MP then.

Alright, I'm sending in my secret vote right now.

Honestly juliets so openly townreading me does actually give me some pause.

Maybe speed should be one of the competing wagons too goddammit.

Idk

My brain was like "speed's probably not teamed with MP at least because of MP being oddly easily convinced to vote for speed by nanook" but then I was like "but what if....."

The worst case scenario would be two town flips, right? Which two town flips do you think would give us the most information?

*cringe*

Yeah I don't really like looking at it from that perspective. I don't want to strategize over 'but what if we're completely wrong and dumb'

Yeah. But devil's advocate, I guess I'd be most upset by a MP/Juliets double town flip. Or basically any double townflip that doesn't involve Sloonei or Wilgy. Which is what I've set us up for.

I hate you jack

I mean this is probably exactly the shit I would pull if I were the mechanically confirmed town but it's annoying on this end

Especially when MP is borderline billboard town imo

We can beat Jack at his own game, you know

Alright, my secret vote is in.

Now for my actual vote.

[VOTE: Juliets] aubergine

MP's not even here sigh

I hope he shows up for the last hour and joins me on juliets lol, if he stays on speed that would be p spicy imo... hmm

By voting Sloonei >:D

(please don't actually vote sloonei)

Ngl I considered sending in a sloonei vote this afternoon and announcing it to force the issue, so mostly I'm just annoyed that MP is the secret vote, not the play itself

Sent in MP vote.

If you somehow cause a wagon on Speed to gain traction, I will move my vote to you, Nute. Don't even think about it, lol.

I feel kind of dirty about this with how much I was townreading him earlier. But I've gone back and forth on him so dramatically a couple times this game, so I guess there may be something there.

I do think this is legitimately bad tho

K, I'm checking out until close to deadline now. If we can set up a situation where I can drop the hammer on Nutella last second and say boom bye scum and have them actually flip scum this time I'd appreciate it, kthx

MP7: My towngame and my scumgame are lightyears different
Also MP7: Puts forth most of his effort into ketchup and then disappears

Like I know you ain't at no dinner parties. We're quarantined and shit.

(If MP7 is like a doctor or something, sorry.)

I mean if MP stays on speed I'm more likely to think he's juliets' teammate. Though I guess in that case if he pays attention he'll just vote for me, lol.

MP is playing another fairly intense high volume game

Is it odd that you going back and forth on me is actually a town-tell I have for you?

Sorry for unclear but that post was about MP lol. Slightly true about you but to a much lesser extent, I only started doubting my townread of you today

Ah. I guess it's not always about me.

Lol MP has 100 more posts than me and also I didn't actually vote for him secretly yet.

But seriously, I don't have much reason to townread him at all from EOD1 to EOD2.

Policylynch jack for lying

You uh

Probably shouldn’t do that

Since now presumably the secret vote has been at least partially split

[VOTE: Juliets] aubergine

Gonna feeel this one out.

You do realize we can't change our secret votes, right? :P

Are we still sure we are voting MP by secret vote?

juliets wrote: ↑Thu Apr 23, 2020 9:44 pm Are we still sure we are voting MP by secret vote?

I think ~3 of us already did so should probably stick with it at this point, unless enough people create a large enough consensus somewhere else

I have secret voted MP. Several posts ago.

Sloonei, are you sure you can't play? I'm not trying to guilt you, I just want to make sure.

Ok thanks speed and [mention]nutella[/mention].

Yes, I already placed my vote there. I don't want it to go to waste!

Not unless you guys plan on dangling me around to endgame. Idk what the status of a replacement would be. That's more likely than me having an impact.

Ok thanks everyone. I'm sending in my vote for MP.

45 minutes. Feels kind of quiet here, more people should come hang out for EOD. And vote juliets

To Jack's earlier point, I noted very early that I think the best option is to go for the unpaired wolves, here Nutella and Juliets.

Which requires me to say something to MPs point about the possibility of neither of them being scum: well that would suck, wouldn't it? It's not that I distinctly haven't considered that possibility, but the spaces without one of them being scum are rather limited and we'd immediately be forced to consider more unlikely combinations. If we lynch both we get over the "this'll be an easy game" mentality that can sink so many towns sooner rather than later.

Given it looks like secret is going for MP, I'll vote there to prevent shenanigans.

Yeah. I mean, what's done is probably done.

Yeah, I'm just voting MP secretly.
