The Syndicate

here's some rationale for a tony town read. i see a few plausible motivations for opening a game with immediate mechanics stuff:

a) looked at setup pre-game and had a thought and/or looked at it upon entering the thread and wondered in general terms about claim dynamics and power role cover (alignment-neutral)

b) perceives one's own "town meta" to be dumping mechanics into the game (~mafia)

c) thinks encouraging mechanical stuff e.g. claims will help mafia isolate power role threat (mafia)

d) believes that the specific meta suggestion he provided would be to the benefit of the town faction (~town)

a) probably just flat happened. b) and c) are "plausible", but i don't view tony as the sort of player that thinks it's necessary to just dive straight into a game thread and fit his meta and/or out the power roles. he can just play the game in some ordinary manner and develop those kinds of strategies more coherently without the urgency of doing it immediately. d) seems more likely to me than b) or c). so town. a little bit. sorta. a wee tad.

caveat: this is a more developed explanation than i would like to give for tiny page one reads, and that's why i color tony light green.

you’re fine. i have no real feelings about you at this point. your posts neither inspire trust nor distrust. at this stage they don’t have to. do yer thang chicken wang

i mean i can go into greater depth. no need quite yet when i’ve already said my bit.

could be. i have something resembling an opinion. i'll let tony and other people say some words before i blab

Hey @Sloonei how would you feel about a 2021 role reversal where I kinda fart around and make everyone uneasy while you take up the Doin Thangs banner and keep the peace

why is that?

i read it in your aura

your joke about deducing the team based on my nothing post illustrates at least the tiniest kernel of an inclination by your brain to assess my post for meaning (before inevitably determining it means only enough to justify a joke). jaggedjimmyjay made a post that says "sure town" and this is where i begin my fleabag mafia experience, except i guess maybe not since it's nothing but oh well i can still be silly with it.
