The Syndicate

I’m so confused and I think I’m being tricked by people who aren’t Jay and Slooneo

gosh darn it if it’s Jack

Okay you better believe I’m doing some reading tomorrow I refuse to rely on JJJ and Sloonei’s novels any more.

I think I said that yesterday and then didn’t successfully get Speed lynched.

sig wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 10:00 am Also I agree with Michelle, at least one of the vanilla voters are mafia.

Every time I read this post I wonder if contains TMI or it's a piece of Wifom

the unflipped vanilla voters are now Speed, Jack, Tony, and GMan. Way too many
But i don't remember who joined the vanilla wagon after this post, because iirc someone voted after and that player should be out of this idea.

Put this aside as not relevant though.

Working in my office on pc in coffee break and few more free moment i will find. Covid paranoia is not at maximum yet

What is a meh read?

Meh: you're just kinda meh, guess if I had to classify it in your archaic way I'd say mafia lean.

Pending a massive scum slip I'd say there's no real way to have a strong read this early in the game. So I am a bit antsy on the people who are throwing town reads like candy.

Did ted and Michelle earn their candy?

First they're still leans. I'm not singing their praising or locking them people are already trying to form a town core which is all well and good until you accidentally town core mafia and they get away with sleazy stuff until it's to late. Which happens all the time.

Who is doing this, sig?

Mainly seems like Jack/Ted. Whom are throwing out alot of strong reads.

Now just to clarify nobody is using the term town core, but me at this point. But, I think it's the natural step when making to many reads early on and it's something to avoid

linki: No Sloonie I'd never say that about you

If Ted would be the Anti monitor his team mate would not ruin his narrative methinks.

the Sloonei pocketing in linki noted.

talking about a slip is this how Sig treated his scum mate Radishes.

Early Sig's interactions with JJJ. Being the slip he "noticed" from Radishes, would he bus JJJ too?
Thinking we want to lynch today the Anti monitor, are we sure he is JJJ?

Any scum feels awkward at a player who gives town reads because the town core is the biggest fear for wolves. Would this be a bus or a shade for someone not aligned with Sig?

Good question. The answer? Reasons. What reasons you may ask? The reasonable type of course.

I think the answer for a team mate would be different and with other words, and more elaborate. Idk, maybe someone can confirm I am right or not?

Second:
Michelle is mainly based off of gut
Ted is based off previous games this is well within his civ meta. Everything from jumping in, to his semi aggressiveness and all that jazz. Now it's still early easy to fake meta, but I'm confident in those two loans.

The convo continues in a tone who is irritated from Sig's side imo.
A little hypocrisy here, he complains of a town core formed by JJJ but he gives 2 gut and meta reads. The meta read on Ted is correct though and didn't ping me.
BUT I want to know how much played Sig with Ted previously to know this.
Ftr, my first game with Ted is from last june and Ted is a paranoid villager usually very active and with strong reads beliefs. He likes to lead and are pushing lynches he thinks are scum.

Also Also it's fun to try and annoy Jay , since I'm pretty sure he's gotten me mislynched like multiple times.

imo JJJ and Sig are not aligned.

Lol sig, look at the poll question: "Which flavor is your favorite?" not "Which flavor ice cream is your favorite?" Someone brought this up earlier.

That's just what someone who's third party would say.

work in progress here, I will continue after a while but now I am posting to not loose it.

Dizzy didn't flip wolf and Nanook died early.

Who knows how this read on Sloonei evolved?

ted, I think there is something fishy about dead Dizzy but he can't be the Anti-monitor. If he was, I think LC would have told us that team was gone when sig died. At least thats what he has done in his games of the past - let's double check.

Michelle, I'm interested in your ted meta here. From reading his games I agree with your assessment. Do you think he has played this way in this game?

Sig played like 2 games with me

I will discredit any and every meta read on me because last time me and michelle played with me scum was like one year ago

I’ve been on hiatus, then had numerous scum games on MS.

I’m not the Creature 2018 meta read anymore

Juliets, I don’t like you holding me accountable for whatever you assume to be my meta when you yourself can’t find any reason for anyone being scum.

Everyone is sapped and confused, so am I, maybe that’s why, or maybe I’m just frustrated at G-Man still being alive when he’s most likely just scum and nobody is even keen to check him out and agree or disagree with me.

I’m at a stage where my most confident read is not regarded as even slight scum by anyone and how would you even react in this situation? I’m tired of having to constantly point out the obvious, of course I don’t have the drive.

Like just give me one reason G-Man is town. Just one.

Another idea I have regarding the role who gives green check, while we can tinfoil Jack because of that, he is never the Anti Monitor. (AM)

Bari Artzain - You appear town to alignment checks. 

Who has the lowest AM equity?

You're scapegoating me.

As if I'm capable of doing that.

I could dig up Turnip Head's case on you, or try to slot you into the other mafia team. Or you could be a malicious independent. I've said before that I don't keep track of all that crap. Those efforts, in my eye, pale to the post above.

You are fitting your scum meta to a T. The calls for effort and readlists feel obligatory. You don't have the joy that town Jay does in figuring things out. Your handling of me is as half-assed as my handling of you. Now we have you getting upset with town effort, appeals to emotion, etc.

I dislike telling anyone why they're scum, as it feels needlessly confrontational in tone compared to making the case to a third party. But you did ask.

I'm about 80% sure Jay is scum. Which is a compliment!

I'm totally prepared to dig into Speed, Sloonei and GMan should I be correct. I'm just thinking one thing at a time.

Winning strategy might be lynch a master -> lynch antimonitor -> lynch master -> lynch master.

I'm not worried about the last neutral at all.

Should probably read Dizzy to figure out what role they had. Could make a difference.

I'm also under the impression that Dom had BTSC with both Epi and Dizzy, which should increase the chances of them being town and mostly roughly clear them of being Antimonitor because Antimonitor had no safeclaim as far as I can tell and the bodies are piling up.

[mention]Michelle[/mention] the more you can post the better. I townread you. I don't want a repeat of Danganronpa where I incorrectly POE you and I really don't want a repeat of Mountainous (which was an amazing game nontheless) or Girl Genius where I give you the benefit of the doubt until it's too late. Ie keep doing what you're doing right now.

Speed will probably be the easiest player to read after Jay flips.

I'm considering most of what happens after the Jay wagon was built as possible wine. Like I don't care about Jay and Speed fighting now or Jay and Sloonei fighting now.

so none of my reads are getting lynched today either?

If you're talking about the second part, I have no idea what your case on G-man is. I went back several pages in your ISO, but all I see is 'Lynch G-man' over and over, back to like night two and beyond.

Has your case evolved since D1? Do you have any actions to point to, or just a feeling of him skating by? I get that there's not a great reason to read G-man as town either, but come on. If you're so certain he's scum, could you point us to why?

I was talking about the first point mostly.

I mean it still goes on from D1 but there's really nobody else I scum read as hard as I do on him, but I guess the early engagement I had with him and the interest I had in lynching his slot kind of left a stain on my brain and I can't get rid of it until I'm proven wrong.

compromising with the majority would mean lynching the one dude who i have a town read on and I just can't vote him.

He's just not doing anything man and as soon as we let the leash off him he's been way too comfortable, make a contrast between his early game where he had to make a whole shtick for a whole day phase in order to fend off suspicion and now when he's not even talked about.

TH and Sprityo didn't do much of anything and were town.

Tranq hasn't done much of anything and he's very likely town.

We can't afford to lynch on a basis of activity level when there are players doing scummy things.

G-man did do scummy things though

and saying just because the low posters were in a major proportion town doesn't clear the remaining ones in the slightest.

I don't even know what you're stringing jimmy for, I do remember his TH interaction being terribad but I wouldn't lynch just on that tbh.

The main problem in being town is complacency. Look at Turnip, he didn't give townie vibes at all and got lynched instead searching for scum. So if you are villager you have to be more active.
We are not in good spot anymore like we were after lyncing Sig because since then we just lost townies.

Your self defense is a must not as a case, but i need few words to help me to understand you better. I didn't read all the thread and I can't do this. Your Iso looks less important than flipped scums', no offence.
As you see I am discovering now things and repost them. At least don't ignore me and help me.

The case on GMan you made no matter when, link it to me, I am serious about this.

It's not really a case in one post it's like scattered suspicion.

And I'm not sure what the snark is about, given you were the one to say you were gonna check out my ISO like 7 times already. Why are you dragging it?

Moreover, if you have that meta knowledge of me, you know you can get a read on me from like the first page of my ISO or so.
