I like the vaguely menacing vibe of this rule 😀

I feel like ties on this site are always vaguely menacing

 

[potentialsheltervet]

What happened then??? 😳

Kehehehe
I was a wolf and managed to eke out a win through technicalities, luck, and sheer confusion. It was a good(ish?) time.
Also had surgery the last day of the game and was trying to keep myself alive while high and in a ton of pain. What a time to be alive

 

[JaggedJimmyJay]

you'll get them when i have them - these days i'm perfectly content to hang back until i find something that is worth poking at

the vote on Nate was for slightly pingy RVS things that may or may not actually be indicative of something, we'll see now that he's here and posting. no one else had done anything that stuck me as vote-worthy in the meantime

Okee dokee

 

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Let's just ensure we don't tie! Ever!

It came down to a tie RNG, but you absolutely worked your butt off to get the game to the point where it was up to RNG.

So luck, certainly, but you made that luck.

Big agree, ties always bad.

Oh hello 3 pages

I kinda brushed over it but now I'm intrigued since you've played with him more than me and the new people. How did you feel about his response when asked if people usually read his tone wolfy regardless of aff? It rubbed me the wrong way just a little but I can't figure out exactly why

Here's the post that made me feel funny.

It's something about the "Though I don't 100% understand why"

I guess because he's played many games where he gets heavily wolf tone read and people call out exactly what makes them feel uneasy so it just sounds funny to say "I don't understand"

This feels stretchy

Hm

This reminds me of how I'll send out feelers / seek permission to make pushes from villagers when I'm wolfing.

Just making a mental note.

This feels like I need hedge clippers

April, if I understood why people wolf read me when I'm village, why wouldn't I attempt to alter that behavior? It would be anti-village not to.

Really? You don’t have any ideas?

Going to stake my (slowly) developing reading card on AM on her being village.

I need AM here. @Animal Midwife How often has he slammed down that you’re village? Do you remember? Do you remember how he’s approached you as wolf?

Just making myself some links to individual player post histories for ease of reference.

So I really like like the SDN search function. You can filter by thread and by user. I’ve never thought to do this.

Also I'm at work rn, so my level of activity can be... Very random

Wolfy pop in (TM)

 

[SportPonies]

I was just informed the game is already 6 pages. I didnt even know the game started.

Who do I need to shoot

 

[SportPonies]

Oh yeah there’s all these MU people on here. *loads shotgun*

Literally every game, regardless of affiliation, except for SDN because he died N1.

Hey! I'm not an MU people!

(it's fine I understand the perception, we're fine, everything's FINE)

 

[samac]

If this is a wolf PSV world these pockets are warm and I like it in here. She’s coming out swinging and I love it.

HMMMM
I don't like True or Empire so far.

Of course, last time True was wolfing I ran my head into a brick wall not wanting to yeet him so maybe my track record is tarnished... But he feels like wolf!True to me.
If he flips wolf April looks real bad.

I’m not sure if April would do it that fast tho

Because they are building a legion of villagers lol

...then why'd you say I'd come around if you think I could be wolfing?

I love you and I love this post

 

[SportPonies]

Hey! I'm not an MU people!

(it's fine I understand the perception, we're fine, everything's FINE)

But are you a highposter

 

[SportPonies]

Oh jesus samac

Samac is playing. That explains a lot.

Any non-native is an MUer. Or else I have no idea where you all come from
You're all being pickled in the "shorty's champs friends" barrel.

 

[JaggedJimmyJay]

It's true. As soon as my parents found out they sent me to boarding school.

Yes, I understand. Since I never truly introduced myself, I suppose I can do that.

I'm Jay! I started playing Mafia in 2011 on rateyourmusic.com, in an off-topic forum that has since been destroyed and erased. Since 2015 I have called The Syndicate my Mafia home. I represented each site in the champs tournament (seasons 2 and 7 respectively), and I follow every year. I played in a finale with dyachei, who I think some folks here know?

3/6

I'd be interested to hear from the locals about samac. I've already given them the town stamp. How do you feel?

I got best wolf last year on the site and some people are scurred of me but no one likes to bring up the fact I’ve failed twice this year.

I am completely neutral on samac

Rood

She hasn't played in a while but imo she's quite good at imitating her village tone when wolfing
If true is a wolf she becomes insta-village though. She's VERY good at catching young wolves early on seemingly irrelevant things. Like, extremely good.
(I would say noob wolf but at this point True has randed scum pretty often. He's more like a yearling than a true baby.)

I am interested that you’d say this though. My last wolf outting you called me out as off in literally my first like 5 posts.

PSV's hunt strikes me as authentic. 🤔

I think I agree.

Not enough to tell.

Rood

Someone asked about Samac meta somewhere. My two cents: she tends to spew herself village fairly easily and early, so I find myself trusting her when I can get an early read.

Awwww genny. I hope you’re vanilla milk in AM’s eyes this game. But I like your AM vote. I always find AM votes villagey though lol

Yes. PSV seems ready to take care of business. At first I typed that as "cake tare of business". Apparently I want cake with my mini wheats.

I feel good about these four. Perhaps the samac read is "premature", and I'll see how that develops. But their entrance really hit the right chords for me. If these are correct and we're not super scared of the Big Bad Bear (me), two more correct town reads solve the game. That may sound incredibly arrogant, so please understand that I am always open to contrary views. If anyone feels these names are distinctly not town, let's talk.

I really like the vibe of the game so far. I'm having fun, and it feels like town is in a good place.

I think I agree on PSV.
I think I feel good about you.
I don’t know Santy and AM scares me.

 

[samac]

I’m actually very anti tie and have more than once broken them. In my experience they tend to end in wolf favor.

WASNT EVEN MOSTLY ME THIS TIME

 

[samac]

I thought I remembered him hedging on you the last game he wolfed with me in it. But they murdered my ass night 1 so I might be misremembering.

 

[Animal Midwife]

What does this mean?

Why does Santy scare you?

 

[samac]

Why does Santy scare you?

I like it when you say people smell nice when you village read them. Cookie dough, vanilla milk, or something

There should be a comma there
I don’t know santy, and AM scares me. Two thoughts in one sentence.
I love you, I love getting a blocc with you but I will never ever do it day 1.

 

[JaggedJimmyJay]

I like it when you say people smell nice when you village read them.

This is definitely the first time anyone has ever written this sentence before. Delightful.

Nope. This is what he said about me.

I really enjoyed bloccing with AM last game and I want to do so again successfully this time... and she really is one of the most productive voices on the thread right now.

So the AM-yeet reaction from me is: dislike

I haven't seen AM be scum very often, but I felt like her reaction to votes was less sharp and upset when she was scum versus when she's village.

AM being a wolf would be extremely stressful for me, I choose manifest a better world

What was the second failure?

And I will never forget that the only watch to catch you as a wolf is to literally see you performing the night kill.

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully I've done that correctly.

If anyone would still like to creepily track me, let's talk after the game. I can set my tinder to your zip code.

this is a joke

You seem especially polite so you can stay… for now.

Hokay, no other mods have checked in.

Speed read those last 3 pages, am pleased with the discussion, particularly contributions from our new guests. Please stay!

Oh, huh, didn't realize Samac had joined the vote on me.

Granted, I did promptly eat her last time, so it's hard to blame her too much

 

[samac]

SAMAC YOU'RE HERE AFTER ALL

This is gonna sound real dumb
But I’ve been thinking about this post on my drive home
It wasn’t mentioned on thread about me being here and the “after all” part seems like my existence on the roster was being discussed somewhere.

This is probably nothing
But if I don’t point it out and someone else call me dumb I’ll spiral and try and use it as an “AHAH” moment later and I don’t need that.

This was the first template with a clock that I found and this popped up in my mind. I may or may not have problems at this point tbh

I own Jay's soul on the syndicate, time to find out if that translates without the crutch of having mac and/or sloon in the game with him

Well you won it but I took it as a personal failure I got yeeted

I will never say that about people voting me.

And I will never forget that the only watch to catch you as a wolf is to literally see you performing the night kill.

You’re right, the 2 times I got yeeted mechanics pushed it over the edge. Tracked and blocked.

Oh, huh, didn't realize Samac had joined the vote on me.

I voted you like 5 pages ago sir
