Game of Champions 2020 [ENDGAME]

[Made]

Vote Tim, please, yes, the argument with the case, I remember that one!! Vote Tim pls and thanks

[Timsup2nothin]

here you go friend <3 @Jackofhearts2005

Tim's Progression on Cat is sus.

Cat will be the day 1 chop. Sorry about your vanity cases. Make comfort with this fact people.

I'm gonna hard push Falcon to make sure we don't have a runaway under your overpowering will.

Starts with clear resistance to cat as a vote. Say he thinks the cat vote might let a baddie falcon get away

@MacDougall

If I didn't have my own fish to fry here I could sheep you on Cat...but it would just be a plain sheep. To me the ISO is just...meh...and a good number of minutes of my life I can't get back...but we already know that you and I read the game in very different ways. Objectively I think it is meh, but if your gut speaks I generally respect it so if you have a strong feeling, go ye forth.

I saw you say you don't disagree with the Falcon wagon so I think history will show we are on the same side in the end. If I misinterpreted that you had actually looked at why I am on Falcon let me know.

Piviots. says the Iso for cat is kinda w/e. Nothing to see here. (I could be wrong, and I was looking for this, but Tim seems to be the only person who said Cat's Iso was meh)

I know y'all don't care but I just posted the most beautiful destruction of cat and made.

I care. If I poste[d] that I'd be eating the usual shit about narratives and pre-flip associations and yadda yadda yadda...but you posted it so...sure, Cat and Made are w/w and we should expect them both to claim PRs just kill them.

Now says that he cares about the case on Cat. Brings up Made's association as Cat's possible teammate for the first time

@MacDougall

If Cat flips town do you think it would be okay if a vig just shoots you?

No that is a ridiculous thought

Just a check to see how certain you are since I'm probably going to just throw in with you here.

Then says that Mac should be shot if he mischops Cat? As a joke, but a weird one, even contemporaniously

[VOTE: Cat] aubergine

just before this vote he tells the vig not to kill Mac just because Mac's wrong.

I haven't read myself more than the environment where I posted and I feel very well and enjoying the game very much.

Me too, on both counts. Clearly this is the way.

Hi Tim, what a huge frozen wagon is telling you?

It is not talking to me yet. Probably because I just got here. I'm kind of intrigued that Mac built his huge case on Cat, then went haring off after Thunal on a "scumslip." I have very low belief in scumslips, but why are we all piled on Cat if Mac has moved on?

Say he's not really feeling the cat wagon. Questions why we were voting cat if mac was gone even though Tim doesn't like voting scum slips. (also doesn't mention his pet project wagon, Falcon)

Does anyone have a more compelling argument for why Cat is not a hit than "this seems too easy"? Because I agree with the sentiment on that one but I have decided not to follow it. Sometimes a wolf is just a wolf and I am not going to be driven by lack of confidence/wifom.

I have to do a post mortem and determine a cause of death, so I am gonna be busy for a while and if anyone has an answer they really think I should see make sure you quote me or ping me or whatever.

Spoiler: show

Spoiler: show

in case you are worrying, the deceased is a vacuum cleaner

for the life of me, I can't find anyone saying the cat's case was "too easy". Most said it was straight forward. That's not to say no one said it, I just couldn't find it.

But I actually just think cat is town now and your read is wrong :/

Is there anything other than the lethargic "too easy" vibe of the wagon to back this "Cat is town" read?

i think how they're responding to the pressure is pretty clearly distinct from how a wolf would approach it

I played a game recently where I got hard sussed and was the consensus wolf. I not only calmly and dispassionately analyzed the game much like cat is doing now, I did it for the entire phase to the tune of 480+ posts. I wish you had been there because I might have gotten off the blocks quicker.

PS: I was a wolf in that game.

Emphasis is my own, but, this reads like Tim knew cat was wolf here. Odd perspective too. 112 was the first person to give him a "cat could be town" read not based on it being "too easy", and he denies it off hand.
(this is prob the weakest part of my argument. Even if this interaction isn't sus to you, the rest of the argument stands. don't be that guy please <3 )

If I give in to the "too easy" feeling on Cat I might want to kill Marmot or Syn. Any takers?

Anyways, Tim now no longer is looking for the arguement that isn't "a cat chop is too easy" and goes to making the "too easy" arguement himself.

for anyone, who are Cat's teammates if they're mafia?

If Cat's a hit Mac's association case on Made comes in hot...and Made's behavior between then and now from what I have seen has not cooled it at all.

If Cat's a hit the attempt to drag 112 down the drain with them will have to be assessed for WIFOM value.

This is bizzare. this is the second time the Made x Cat connection is made. First time after Tim's vote, and very forceful considering how unsure he was on Cat

If Cat's a hit their team wrote them off early, so any spew needs to be filtered based on Cat intentionally peddling.

I know this not to be true. At least not the Made bits. That said, I think it's sus that this is the next post he makes after the above

but yeah, in conclusion, omgus. don't forget to like comment and subscribe. Thank you for coming to my ted talk
[VOTE: Tim] aubergine

I kinda dig this case.

At the end he admits it's just OMGUS.

[nutella]

@Jackofhearts2005 the tim case was good, but hes kinda towny and marmot isn't and a lot of the same/similar points apply to marmot imo

[Hyena]

There could also be a cult.


And if we lose to a cult I'm now gonna say 'I told you so'.

we're part of x cult remember

No you guys aren't! That's me, Nute, and Mac only! x

And 112, too!

Once again you guys fail to spot 112.

[nutella]

Well I'm annoyed that there's hardly a case or reason for wagoning me.

But looking at the votes. Nutella's probably town and just being a goober

Syn I already had a suspicion of for straight up slanking.

JPIC has kinda fallen off today imo, or at least that's something I noticed earlier in the day. I don't know how he came about voting for me, but that should be looked into.

Hyena's town. Mac is probably town

I don't know where Martin's vote came from. Put a question mark there.

MR, I go back and forth. His intent on solving does look town-minded.

we all town

[nutella]

please can we get the leading wagon above 8. please and thank you

?

part of my role

hey everyone do this thx

[nutella]

at this point marmot is the one going over, might as well make it 9

I did at the last second! Just like last time before I get yeeted. ;-;

[Made]

I really don't see the marmot case at all. he is scummy yes, but I don't remember any actual post about him, and that's sus this close to end of day, especially after moving votes to Tim loosened everything up.

[tutuu]

@tutuu any word about what hitting the ball did? or maybe it'll happen at eod

i think it will be a night action

or eod but i think it allows or disallows a night action

[nutella]

he did exactly the same thing i accused tim of re: latching onto the association of you to cat, even more so arguably. his progression on cat was sketchy. hes not done anything that feels towny at all

[Master Radishes]

NAH BRO! IM SO MAD MAN MY HANDS ARE SHAKING AND SHIITV THEY ATE DUMBFOUNDED!

TIM IS THE OUTED WOLF! HE GOT OUR COP YEETED! MADE WANTS TO BELIEVE HE HAS NOT BEEN WRONG SO NO MATTER THE GODDAMN EVIDENCE HE FINDS HE WILL FIND A WAY TO SECOND GUESS HIMSELF AND LET THE WOLVES MANIPULATE HIM INTO YEETING ME!!!

The fucking arrogance or the pride or both that I cannot be right, that i have to be wrong because im either the GODDAMN NEGATIVE UTILITY TOWN or just scum.

YOU WILL SEE WHEN I FLIP HOW WRONG YOU WERE! and I'm gonna lose my best town game to date because the wolves manage to pocket these dumb townies and manipulate them into killing our own cop and let the fake cop win!

[Marmot]

Oh and Sloonei voted for me toooo!!

Inb4 kyle silently drops a vote there.

[MartinGG99]

Maybe I'm confbiased but I think regardless of the possible flips going on, MR is just town here (unless we're all town wagons in which case we got bigger problems lol).

[Marmot]

@tutuu any word about what hitting the ball did? or maybe it'll happen at eod

i think it will be a night action

or eod but i think it allows or disallows a night action

Come vote me tutuu!!!!

[Made]

Day 2 Ends

It was during the same dream that Rob experienced another unusual mammal. This time it was a Marmot.

Atop a rock in the scenic mountains, it glared into the distance. After a moment, it uttered a piercing screech.

This caused a strange multicolored avalanche, in which the rocks became blocks and disappeared the moment they all lined up.

Rob woke up after this, reminded of a game he had seen on his dad's computer.

The storm was over, but it was still dark outside.



Did you know it takes ten blocks across to make a line in Tetris disappear? Marmot got ten votes across. He's going to disappear now.

Spoiler: show

Marmot was Alexey Pajitnov, Mafia.

As the developer of Tetris, you enjoy a mental challenge. Each Night, you will select someone to take you on. During the next Day phase, you and your target can attempt Tetris as many times as you like. Upon completion of a game, when it asks for your initials, you must enter the first three letters of your username on The Syndicate. You will then take a screenshot and submit this as proof to the hosts. Only one submission is permitted (subsequent submissions will not be counted). If your target prevails, he or she shall receive a one shot block to use the next Night (Get it? Block? Ha!). If your target fails to beat your submitted score, you will assume control of any and all abilities that individual has the following Night, which you may use even as you issue a challenge to a new target.

It is now Night 2. You have until 5pm EST to submit your Night action(s) to both hosts.

[Epignosis]

Night 2 is over. No further PMs will be accepted.

[Epignosis]

Night 2

Being awake meant wearing a mask. Making sure people were far enough away from you that you couldn't hurt them. Sanitizing things and resanitizing things. Listening to the teacher on a screen.

A sneeze meant filthy looks.

A hug was attempted homicide.

After breakfast, Dodo attended her zoom class.

Mr. Mac Mason was there. He smiled his friendly, bearded smile and wished everyone a good morning.

The teacher liked to begin each day with a fun bit of trivia. It was his way of starting things off in an interesting way and engaging his students, but Dodo knew it was how Mr. Mason tried expand the kids' vocabularies.

After giving a brief history of a video game called Tetris, Mr. Mason said that the blocks in the game are called "tetrominoes," that they are like dominoes, but with four blocks instead of two, and with no extra toppings.

Mr. Mason was also fond of dad jokes.

The phone rang in Mr. Mason's house. He still had something called a landline. He excused himself to answer it, announcing that it must be important.

He muted his microphone.

And he never came back.

Spoiler: show

MacDougall was Mason, Civilian.

You will gain BTSC with your target for the next phase. You will be announced to your target as a civilian, and you may join your BTSC as “Mason.” You may discuss anything you wish.

It is now Day 3. The poll closes February 21st, 2021 at 6pm EST.

[tutuu]

hiiii

[tutuu]

im sorry that i townread marmot im not very good at mafia to the surprise of noone

[Master Radishes]

So Syn and Nutella are just town.

Who was Mac's mason? I didn't pay attention to about 95% of what he said.

[Justplayingitcool]

still think marmot is town i bet ... i bet ... i bet ... if he's mafia i will eat my sock and record myself and post it itt

We're ready whenever you are

[tutuu]

good job to nutella and to all townies who killed marmot

[Justplayingitcool]

@tutuu any word about what hitting the ball did? or maybe it'll happen at eod

i think it will be a night action

or eod but i think it allows or disallows a night action

Come vote me tutuu!!!!

but whyyyy u have the same alignment as i do

Unlikely to be wolf theatre

[tutuu]

[tutuu]

[Justplayingitcool]

[VOTE: 112] aubergine

[tutuu]

so even more reason to [VOTE: Tim] aubergine

[Justplayingitcool]

i think made is definitely town, i think spewed by marmot

I think Made is slight town after how EoD ended. His posts don't feel like someone trying to save their partner
