The Syndicate

Shit, I'm so sorry guys, I'm here, I didn't even remember that I had signed up for this. Reading now!

Annnnd apparently I'm too drunk and tired to read righ tnow. I'l get into the game tonorrow

Hey all, I'm at work on a double shift, but the bosses have all gone home, so I'm going to sneak some reading in around my work

But bear with, I've got a lot of catching up to do.

Well, page one was... something.

WTF is with all of the third party hosting crap in people's sigs?

And in light of the remaining minutes to this day, I'm never going to catch up fully, if someone can give me the cole's notes on the big cases?

So at what point did the game actually get going? I've just finished page 4, so 400 posts I think, and it's still frill.

Oh, actually I think I'm set to 50 per maybe? Either way I'm finally at the meat of Day 1. Which is... a Day 1-y Day 1. Lots of random voting, nothing I can yet discern.

I do, if you happen to like RuPaul's Drag Race??

Okay, so I've made to the end of Day 1.

I wish I could say I divined something out of that read, but really, it is all over the place. Tomorrow is another double shift at work and once again I'll attempt to catch up when I can.

For now, though, it's one more oatmeal stout and then bed.

Some people think that poems should rhyme.
I disagree most of the time.


Gang, I'm caught up and finally around. I've spent the day off and on reading back. I didn't gleam (glean?) any insights out of it, though, but at least I'm finally here.

@Epig, do you think someone knew Dom imitated Trump in that other game and ran with it for kicks?

Kudos to whoever did do this. I'm dying.

The other question is, do we focus on that, or do we focus on who we think might be LC's teammates. Given that I think Epi is one of said teammates, I think he's also trying to draw us away from that line of thinking.

Finding LC's teammates is more natural to my M.O., but reading the tea leaves of the voting polls has been hard, the formatting is wonky. Actually, in the thread, the person I noticed a link between was LC and Dom, though I'd have to wait until tomorrow when I'm not half asleep to go pull the quotes.

OMG /dead.

Dom wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2017 3:55 am Crooked Timmer says that he read. If he did, he would know that Epi had this theory before!

Homie, I read, but I read fast, lol. And I don't plan on voting you while you are insanified. But there was something to you and LC in your posts that I felt was worth pointing out.

Are my thoughts fake news?

LoRab wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2017 2:35 pm That's a good point, Jack, that there could be someone on the team who was in 1 game and someone else who was in the other. Here's a list of all the potentials (of living players):

People involved in both games:
INH, Wilgy, Timmer, Rico, Dom, and Epi
Missed Epi when I made the list earlier--INH hadn't mentioned him when he posted his list of who had played Blue Velvet. He also missed Dom (who I listed, but didn't point out that INH skipped him), who modded the game.

(Eloh included only those not cursed, but I could see someone cursing themselves, so I'm included them)

People in Blue Velvet:
INH
Speedchuck
Wilgy
Timmer
Sprityo
Rico
Epi
Dom

People in Romance of the Three:
Epi
Boomslang
Dom
Wilgy
Elo
Golden
INH
LoRab
Rico
Timmer

I have zero recollection of playing in a game called Romance of the Three? I must have been killed off early? And I hadn't even checked into the game when the first insanification happened, I believe, so I'd say that contexts matters if you are using the past to combat the present.

Plus, this line of thinking ignores that a baddie team is a TEAM, thus you just need one member to have played one game, and one member to have played the other.

Eggs are yummy,
With spinach and cheese.
Today I'll be voting
One of these.

Here again, I was not even aware that this game had started when the first insanification happened, so a big ol' on people trying to put me on a list of suspects for this.

Yeah, conversation is def. good, I had forgotten howfast these speed games move.

@Epi, I don't think I covered it, but I wasn't present in the game for the first vote, and the second vote I hadn't yet caught up, so I didn't see how randomly throwing out a vote would help. As for the night poll, it seemed like a typical night poll, so I just grabbed a spot, I don't even remember what my opition was.

Reading back, day 1 I would have essentially randomed my vote if I were here, there was nothing in my read that would have caught my attention. As for yesterday? I'm not sure. I don't think I'd have voted LC, so good on those who did.

For today, I'm still unsure. I ended up reading damn fast, and I'm at work. I won't be leading any charges today, for sure, but once others do, I'll find the time to ISO their suspicions and make a udgment.

I'm sure you can guess my concern. A Day 1 missed vote, fine- but missing the Day 2 vote when LC got lynched just because you hadn't read everything looks like hiding to me.

It also would suggest I'm not on that baddie team, which is more useful pro-civ info than I think is available for a number of players. But I totes get why you are asking.

In terms of participating, I'm trying my best. I'm well aware that as Domald mentioned, a quiet Timmer is more likely a bad Timmer, but the state of things is what it is. I signed up for this game in May, lol, I had a lot less on my plate in May. Now it's July and I'm way over my head juggling life. So I'm going to do my best, but my participation level will be erratic. Like LoRab would say, eye me all you want for that. I'll try when i can try!

I would never not vote if my baddie teammate were on their way to being lynched even if I was just checking in. I'd find an excuse to vote.

Ugh, I'm so sorry. I've requested to nijuu to find a replacement for me. I'm a) working to get my house ready to sell b) getting divorced and c) working more than full-time hours. It's just not the right time to be here.
