Members do not see this ad.

My understanding is that it is the inverse of the suspects. Suspects are people you think might be the perpetrator, the unsub is the profile of the perpetrator or the unidentified victim, so you’re looking to find suspects that fit that/narrow down suspects using it

I'm proud

 

[Melchizedek]

…. Is he a good guy?

Good is such a banal word

 

[WildZoo]

…. Is he a good guy?

Spoiler: Hannibal spoilers

well he is the main protagonist of the show

I believe in that particular scene he's suffering from the effects of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis

 

[BobLoblaw78]

MHA I watched the damn show. I’m 2 episodes now from being current with after the game ended.
I was familiar with RvB, went back and watched some for a refresher.
I looked at watching criminal minds……. And saw how many seasons there were and just backed away…..

Now if we do a Law and Order SVU themed one, I’ve got this.

Never watched mha. My girls warned me to stay away.

Same on RVB. Rewatched some and remembered how awesome it was.

I read the mind hunter book (great book!) it is obv based off of. Love inigo. Got overwhelmed by thinking how many episodes x how many seasons. Then the spoiler thing.

…….
If it’s all independent that would be the worst game ever.

I think it would be interesting. Kinda like seeing who could get who voted off approach.

My name ain’t Sammy bro.

I’m reading this more as joking around vs sensitive but not sure.

 

[vetschoolsletmeinplease]

VSLIMSHADY

VSLIMBIZKIT

These are very good

 

[Melchizedek]

Spoiler: more ****posting

My name ain’t Sammy bro.

 

[vetmedhead]

It doesn’t make it a less confusing term though.
I had to read it like 3 times.
Just say suspects, or the perpetrator, or something that makes sense dammit.
Weird ass show.

smh this is such unsub behavior

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THESE THINGS
Every last bit of police knowledge I have comes from Law and Order SVU. Olivia Benson or bust.

I approve. DUN DUN has been my texting ringtone for at least 5 years

 

[alleycat03]

Early samac feels... thread presence feels a little different. More conservative with the posts and "Im bored yeet bob" seems like an easy way to get a vote on the board.

vote sammy

I like the Sammy nickname!

(Also I forgot about the game all evening but I’m of course awake for the T-Swift album drop)

 

[alleycat03]

Oh also I really don’t wanna do this because she is yeeted day 1 so god damn often but she’s pinging me so god damn hard I don’t think I can help myself.
So let’s get a real vote on the board.

Unyeet Bobby boy
Yeet Alley

Nooooo Samac this is not a good plan please rethink it 🥺

**********IS IT OUT!??? DID SHE DROP IT AT MIDNIGHT EASTERN!!!???? F CK IM AT A GIG RN I CANT LISTEN ******

 

[alleycat03]

I totally get that with alley.
It hurts me a little bit to consider doing day 1 if I’m being honest and I’ve been consistently questioning myself because I misyeeted her day 1 before.

You’re right. To be honest I just know nothing about this theme and nothing has happened to get me riled up. I know nothing about the show and nothing game changing has happened. Im not going to fake excitement when I’m village just to seem village.

This really seems excessively self-deprecating like “oh guys don’t expect me to get ANYTHING because I know NOTHING about this theme”
This is also like the 3rd time you’ve brought up the fact that you don’t know the source material. I didn’t know anything about bioshock, RvB, or HZD but I don’t think I made that big of a deal about it

 

[alleycat03]

**********IS IT OUT!??? DID SHE DROP IT AT MIDNIGHT EASTERN!!!???? F CK IM AT A GIG RN I CANT LISTEN ******

****YES ITS OUT AND MY SPOTIFY WAS CRASHING SO IM JUST NOW FINISHING UP STATE OF GRACE****

 

[alleycat03]

I started watching for Mandy Patinkin and kinda lost interest soon after he left.

Alley is continuing to sketch real hard, the salt vote on VSLIMSHADY felt weirdly-timed after the whole zenge thing she was on about.

Samac and VSLIMBIZKIT picking up sketch points

I like the vslimshady nickname too for pleasy
But wtf is VSLIMBIZKIT

 

[Animal Midwife]

Nooooo Samac this is not a good plan please rethink it 🥺

Can I ask why you said this to samac but not Cray?

 

[alleycat03]

Can I ask why you said this to samac but not Cray?

Because Samac is my friend and I expected better from her. Cray is my wolf mom so I respect her but she’s not on the same level of friendship. Basically I’m not personally offended that she voted me. Also she did it as a direct response to my Zenge sus post so while I disagree with her logic, I get her reasoning. You can see that I sad reacted both of their posts.

Your sad reacts are NAI so was just more interested in what was actually said. For the record though, we're still more than 20 hours from close.

 

[alleycat03]

unsalt yeet pleasy

 

[alleycat03]

It’s been 4 pages and several hours now and Zenge hasn’t really said anything of substance yet, even though he’s been present on the thread. I’m ready to place my vote on him now. He still has opportunity to improve, but something’s missing and he seems off.

###yeet Zenge###

Alley pls.

I haven’t really seen a whole lot I’ve felt the need to jump on and talk about.

I’m not really sure what you’re expecting but my D1 play has historically been pretty reserved. Holding me to a weird standard for sure. The majority of posts from everyone haven’t really been content of substance. If you have a specific question I’m happy to discuss things, but I seldom if ever just word vomit my every thought onto the thread.

Mostly a joke, but I did know someone named Sammy in high school and I’d greatly prefer not to have that nickname stick

This hit me right in the soul.

Yeaaaaah but I’m the kind of person who watched the first 1-2 seasons of MHA in 2 days because I wanted to get the source material.
You can expect me to play the game, but I don’t have wild sourced base tinfoils like I tend to.

My reasoning is the same as Cray’s. It’s why I responded and asked if you were wolfing now I adore you, but it just felt so off. I didn’t want want to vote you because you’re so constantly misyeeted day 1, but I can’t shake it that you feel off in a way that I’m not used to.

I’m going to make you like the show by the end of this game 😛

Good luck lol

[cubsrule4e]

I will say that the "I'm bored" comment had me thinking of Cat Adams but I think that's reading waaayyyyy too far into things given samac doesn't know the show and

Spoiler: show spoiler

she is a very late season villain from that Reid arc we all hate

you're right that it does feel like a more conserve samac so far but I'll need to see more to get a better feel of my own

Why did @alleycat03 "hmmmm" my post about samac, and then "thumbs up" the literal next post of TME agreeing with what I just said?

 

[cubsrule4e]

My name ain’t Sammy bro.
And no, I was trying to get the thread moving and doing something friend.
I was extremely excited last game cause I was 3P survivor and the dinguses killed me. I’d prefer not to die night 1 again lol.


I do not know enough to throw softballs on thread.
I was just bored.

would you prefer sammie? sammacus? I just like nicknames, no offense intended.

[cubsrule4e]

Alleys pinging me but no more than she always does on day 1.
And on principle because I felt straight up awful after yeeting her d1 last time, I can’t do it today unless some really compelling stuff comes out lol

The thing about samac being conservative is interesting
I’m not sure I agree but definitely sense a tonal shift from the chaos she normally brings to the thread but I’m not sure she’d do that as a wolf? Like I feel like she would know that that would bring more attention onto her

If its because of wolfing its probably an unconscious shift, not an intended/planned one. so her "doing" or "not doing" something as a wolf from a tonal/feels standpoint is often more incriminating than vindicatory.

 

[cubsrule4e]

….. Are you having a stroke?

Too much cheeze in his diet. Needs to diversify.

 

[samac]

Not offended, Sammy just strikes a cord
Macdaddy, bigmac, sam. Samacasourous-Rex

 

[cubsrule4e]

Huh. Tbh samac has been pinging me most so far, based just on feels/tone mostly, but I wonder if she would openly retaliatory yeet… I feel that early on especially, a good offensive is a good defense, so I’m not ruling it out

TBF, I would be more the retaliatory yeet in this situation.

Dubz dubz dubz where do you think I was trying to understand unsub from

Why did @alleycat03 "hmmmm" my post about samac, and then "thumbs up" the literal next post of TME agreeing with what I just said?

I liked that she was willing to tinfoil on thread, especially after the discussion about her hesitancy to. Also hmmmm usually just means I’m thinking about what you said, not that I disagree. It’s a neutral reaction

 

[alleycat03]

Not offended, Sammy just strikes a cord
Macdaddy, bigmac, sam. Samacasourous-Rex

Noted. I like bigmac

 

[cubsrule4e]

Noted. I like bigmac

Macdaddy for the win. Actually MacAttack is my new preference.

I voted for the MacAttack. Looks like your tally shows it. But I did get the tag.

 

[Stagg737]

I'll be around to catch up later today, had a miserable migraine and went straight to sleep after work yesterday but should have plenty of time to catch up later today.

I can live with that name.
But also, should consider voting for a wolf.

Side note: I only came across this nickname because I realized I was pronouncing samac's name wrong through the entirety of Goats.

I blew all y’all’s minds when I said “Samac” on discord lol

 

[Zenge142]

but I can’t shake it that you feel off in a way that I’m not used to

What are your thoughts on "Too wolfy to be wolf"?

Because I agree Alley is pinging me. Her initial shading of me for not participating enough less than 50 posts into the game is super off, and subsequent voting for me is... lacking.

I worry though that it's too obvious, and too wolfy, and wonder if Wolf!Alley would be more careful.

This is something I’ve been considering, too.
I’m conflicted. Since Madagascar I’ve had a very good day 1 read rate of alley and the pings are so hard.
I’m wondering if she would lean into it and act more wolfy once someone called her out or if she would try to back pedal.

I’m really not sure here and don’t want to yeet her day 1 if she isn’t a wolf. But It would take a lot for me to be able to shake these pings.

Sah-mack
It’s like smack with an extra a sound in there.

See this is the kind of posts I was looking for. Like actual thoughtful posts with some sustenance. I agree, I am not a wolf. Not sure why everyone is getting pinged by my posts, but whatever. I think this is kind of like Madagascar where I tried to generate discussion early on and then got a ton of sus for it.

It would be pretty risky for me to do that and just hope that y'all don't vote me out because I seemed too wolfy.

My thoughts are similar to most, its becoming like an NAI thing to a degree for alley to give off super pings D1. Im not recommending ignoring them because at some point she will be a wolf, but Im personally going to continue to abstain from voting there at the moment.

 

[Zenge142]

It would be pretty risky for me to do that and just hope that y'all don't vote me out because I seemed too wolfy.

I mean I also worry about the tinfoil possibility of like a "copy cat" or something. Someone who wants to get caught but didn't actually commit the crime.
