The Syndicate

I think it's alarming everyone GTH named Quin scum and yet none of us have ever voted for him.

we're probably all big wrong losers cos when does this ever happen

he's probably 3p since no one townreads him..

I also find it alarming we all town read Daisy without any game mechanics being involved and without her being actively engaged in the game like TH.

It's not a confident read but it kinda reminds me of FE when he was all "no I won't have opinions you can't make me" but also maybe that's just quin idk

For me her reaction to nova seemed genuine town

Also nova is my strongest scumread so that helps her out

I think all the 3ps were active based on the trades going in early on.

I don't think Bob or Quin can be 3P.

I updated the GTH chart and made a new chart wherein I showed the top scumreads (Quin, Nova, Wolbre/Jack) and the joke was that I colored my portion of the pie graph orange because those scum reads are sarcastic.

But then I accidentally closed without saving.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Thu May 10, 2018 3:50 pm Dunya is the only one who thinks Kyle and Sloonei are bad and who thinks Nova is town. She's also in the minority on Jack and Wolbre. I'd love to hear more about all of this except her read on me.

kyle: something is amiss. he admitted he's playing a loose game. Kyle's never drawn scum in the reboot of his Syndicate career yet (I hope I'm not wrong), and I can't help but feel like he'd want to switch up his meta when that happens. he didn't do a subtle meta change, it's like, I get whiffs of kyle but it's not really kyle. some impostor taking over his body. (the twilight fanfic is marvelous tho)

sloonei: when I reread today what quin quoted, that nova post where he was suspecting sloonei/colin, yea, where did our Sloonei suspicion go? I've been burned too many times by Sloonei so I'll never sleep on him. I don't feel I have a real reason to trust him completely yet. I'm surprised TH townreads him GTH. his reasons behind a phony sloonei were weak, but it's hard to drop tone suspicions that quickly.

wolbre: I keep thinking of how bad he's sounded all throughout the game, and I just can't wrap my head around it. after yesterday's flip, he dug his hole so deep, you could have fit 5 wolbres in there. I don't feel like there's much sneakiness behind his posts or thought. he's not being selective with his words or as cunning as I think scum should be.

I stand by my GTH read of Sloonei as town, but I admit that if he was scum, I probably wouldn't have noticed by now. He's pretty darn tricksy and he's been afk for awhile lately so even harder to catch if he was bad.

I don't see myself voting for Sloonei over any of my scum reads, though. Maybe before Dunya, since I'm probably wrong about that GTH.

I'm just sitting on it. tbh I didn't realize he had like 400 posts Surely he's said something meaningfully townie in there somewhere and so that makes me think I was harping on him too much for using RL as an excuse.

I suppose that doesn't preclude him from being bad for other reasons but I don't currently suspect him.

Sloonei post counts always bloat because of all the questions and pretend pushes. I feel like he made a pretend push on me in this game and I docked his cred for it earlier but that's probably unfair of me.

I expect Sloonei, Daisy and MP to come back and provide some insight and continued assurances through hunting. I expect Dunya to show me the scumhunting goods. So they've got some additional town cred on loan.

Really feeling my Bob town read. Like maybe more than in any other game. Less feeling my TH read but that's probably because he's being contrary. I'd still probably stake the game on TH being town or pro town neutral but I'm less sure than I was before.

I don't expect much from Nova or Quin based on style and my current read on them.

I don't know what to expect from Wolbre because I've never played a finished game with him.

I don't know what I'm doing with this post.

Tbh I'd vote Kyle until he releases The Winds of Winter more fanfic

Sloonei reminds me of GoC Sloonei wherein he was town and got lynched because of his participation rate

(I've said this earlier this game too)

Sorry if I'm a detriment to you, town

I gave bob a scumread because... I haven't seen much from him lately that makes me thing he's town.

I don't know why I said Quin is scum though, I think he's more likely 3P, and forgot that I thought that.

I think we're all detriments to town after the last day phase.

But Mafia are the biggest detriments to town, soooooooooooooooooo let's lynch them!! Hoorah!!

Quin is a replacement. The 3P players were all active early, trading items per the host posts on the first page. Quin is not 3P

Ok.

You can't make me vote for him though.

When did I say I think he's town? It's been a while since I remember feeling that way.

nevermind, I totally misread your post above. I thought there was a comma in there. gotcha now.

I’ve also wondered why the talk about me disappeared after Day 2 but I wasn’t gonna resurrect it. I figured we’d moved past it.

can you do Jack's GTH exercise? I know it's past the event, but I'm curious.

dunya - TOWN
Jackofhearts2005 - TOWN
Quin - SCUM
Kylemii - SCUM
colonialbob - TOWN
M Plus 7 - TOWN
Marmot - TOWN
novaselinenever - TOWN
Spacedaisy - TOWN
Turnip Head - TOWN
wolbre04 - TOWN

Quin and Kyle it is then. nova and daisy were the town reads that gave me the most pause, and I obviously am not accounting for indies here.

Sorry all, gotta get this dissertation done. I’ll be back this weekend.

Kites was here and posting on Day 1 so I don't know why you think this. I also don't like that you think this.

Wait, why am I defending myself as 3P again?

Kites has 4 posts prior to asking to be replaced. Iirc, all the 3Ps made a trade within the first day.

You wanna give us some head-gun reads as well sir please and thank you?

The evacuation of Athens was difficult for those who called the city home. It must have felt like such an enormous and frightening concession to give the jewel of northern Greece to the enemy. Indeed, Themistocles had to work hard just to keep morale under control and his advisors in line. It was an unpopular decision to surrender the city. The plan was never to allow the Persians to take permanent control though, but rather it was a calculated decision to facilitate a grander defense of the homeland nearby. The Persians tore through Attica and walked into a deserted Athens. This probably inspired mixed feelings for Xerxes, who had reached his destination but not his prey. This event is actually a fascinating foreshadow to a different conflict over 2,000 years later. Again, a god-like conqueror was invading a foreign land which had to that point held strong against all prior attempted incursions, again with the benefit of weather on the side of the defender. Napoleon marched through Russia scoring numerous victories, but at great cost to his army. He eventually took Moscow, but only after the Russians had completely abandoned the city to him. He was eventually forced to evacuate himself when weather and supplies no longer allowed his army to linger. It was quite similar for the Persians in Athens. The city was theirs, but only for their physical presence. The spirit of the Athenians eluded them, and they could not hope to win the war until that was extinguished. Toward this objective, Xerxes ordered the Acropolis be burned to the ground.


The effect was felt across the hidden Athenian navy and the island cities to which the people had retreated. It must have been jarring to see the smoke billowing from precious Athens, so near as it still was. Themistocles had a plan though, and this was an unfortunate component of it. The Persians still had to contend with his fleet, and he had set the table for a decisive battle just off the Attican shore in the straight of Salamis. The battle to come would be the Greeks' finest hour.

Night 6 has ended.



Day 7 is underway. You have 48 hours to lynch someone.

[VOTE: M Plus 7] aubergine

[mention]JaggedJimmyJay[/mention] nova is not in the poll?

True.

I remember now, we were cursed by a witch and we all had to post without voting loud and me and TH were writing vampire fanfic

Okay well I guess someone removed nova from the goddamn poll
