The Syndicate

Awesome first period! I recommend you all tune in to the hockey game if you're able. Besides, the Warriors game is only starting nowish and will probably still be on after the hockey game is over. It's been a real treat and there's still two periods to go! Au contraire. That was a terrible fist per...

Dex, if by 'Cavil faction' (which while I understand why you'd made the assumption that there is one but if you'd been following what I've been saying there is a possibility, however slight, that there may not be) you mean Mafia or any allegiance other than to the Town this game, I can assure you t...

Are any of those Cylons good Cylons?

No sir. Those are exactly the surviving members of the Cavil faction. Good catch.

Glorfindel, please answer this question honestly: are you part of the Cavil faction?

Glorfindel wrote:Briefly though, LC clearly my not have been Mafia but his agenda was clearly and obviously anti-Town.

Your - I believe accurate - assessment of LCs role is exactly what you'd expect "based on the TV series". I'm not sure why you think the case would be different for any other character.

Ricochet wrote:Sig's vote doesn't show up homologated in the Voting Records.

@Goldama: Is this an error?

It is also based on the presumption that all/most Cylons are bad - a presumption that I will continue to challenge because I believe it is at the heart of the Mafia campaign that is being used against us. Actually, I am constantly repeating my belief that there are four bad and four good cylons. *W...

Yep. And right back atcha.

Question: Is Wilgy on the good side and within the margin of those two anti-Cavil roles, in your process of elimination? Yes. There are four altogether (this is lore, btw). Epi, LoRab, Wilgy, and one other. Question 2: Wilgy and you had a small banter a while back on the use of the word "God&q...

Dex - again. Explain it to me like I'm dumb Cuz I really . Why Wilgy civ and not glor? What am I missing? My Wilgy case is here. My case against Glorfindel has three legs. 1) His repetitive but generally contentless posts. 2) He was the last non-declarer to declare before the law was repealed, and ...

All Along the Watchtower.

Just testing.

Man, as soon as the Marmot protection act expires - bam. Going to miss you, Marmot.

SO SAY WE ALL!

Epi: civ
Wilgy: civ
Glorf: mafia

I'm off to the ballpark to catch a game and won't be back before game-dawn, so I just wanted to make an if-I-die-before-I-wake post. My intention is to look to players particularly hostile and aggressive towards anti-Cavil cylons, Epi, LoRab and Wilgy. It looks to me like the Cavil cylons have a par...

Linki: then which anti-Cavil Toaster is he, JJJ? We've got Epi and Wilgy (I'm still coming around on that theory as well). If we think the eight listed are split four and four, you think we've found the remaining three good ones? For my own part, I feel pretty confident that I've IDed Leoben and Ca...

JaggedJimmyJay wrote:So to be clear: you think Glorfindel is pro-Cavil and DrWilgy is anti-Cavil?

Unequivocally, yes. This.

You keep saying anti-Cavil -- do you literally mean "not aligned with Cavil" or "on Cavil's team"? You called Glorfindel anti-Cavil too. I'm trying to come up with replacement terms for civ and mafia, which I think are murky in this game. We have two sets of cylons, though; the ...

JaggedJimmyJay wrote:Rabbit8 suggested the event could be triggered by the first bad cylon being saved, which could be Glorfindel. It's plausible.

I concede the point. I'll even endorse it if it means accepting that Wilgy is anti-Cavil.

You all may be correct, but I still think it's possible sig is Gaius, and if so, I think it's possible Glorfy is good. Again, who thinks sig could be Gaius? Anyway, I'm out for the night. Good luck town, evade those NK's k? I think sig is Gaius, but I'll say otherwise if that makes you entertain th...

Why sig winning and not Glof losing? If he is a bad cylon it makes more sense from a balance sense that after the first cylon to claim is saved the act would be repealed and bad shit would happen. I'm not worked up enough about it to debate the point, but Glorf was not the first to be saved by the ...

Honestly the impeachment angle makes more sense to me than Gaius have a mechanic to get himself elected. What say those knowledgeable in show lore? Anything there to help us on this one? I'm going with 3Js idea that sig winning the lynch was the trigger for the New Caprica event. It just rings true...

What are you seeing? We already have two potential Cylons playing the good game card. Begin your sentence with "I think" and then lay it out for us. I see sig and Glorfy town reading the eff out of each other when looking through their ISO's. With the exception of sig "questioning&qu...

In the drama that was? For the plan to be fulfilled and everyone (relevant i.e. besides Epignosis, I guess) to have claimed. In the drama that is? Nothing, seems irrelevant now. :shrug: You think we're just going to forget you complete and utter bullsuit reasons for not claiming? Let me disabuse of...

I did not prefer things when martial law was in effect but, if given the choice of a mafia lynch vs. Cain, at that point or in any point of the game before the elimination of Cavil's faction, I'd choose to lynch mafia. Even if I knew who was Cain. In the event, however, a mafia lynch vs. Cain decis...

I get your point; at the moment, removing Cavil from the game was contextually optimal. But imagine this: wouldn't it be better to kill the mafia (Cavil's faction), who nightkills civs and has other maleficial powers, and then go after Cain in order to eliminate martial law in order to restore winc...

Ricochet wrote:Couldn't the immune part be true of Glorfindel?

That's what the claim achieved - immunity.

She still strongly believes that Cain is a bigger threat than Cavil, and showed aggressiveness when I said Cavil should die before Cain. How in the frak could that be possible? Any civilian could do with lynching Epi if that were necessary to ensure victory, but who the hell thinks we need to lynch...

Polo wrote:I'm perfectly fine with lynching Glorfindel tomorrow. I believe sig is civ and I really regret pushing for his lynch before.

Absolutely.

We can't lynch Glorfindel? Why not? His amnesty expired on Day 6 and the act is repealed anyway. We can't lynch Gaius, eg sig. But thinking about it further, I don't think removing Gaius is what is going to get us off New Caprica. In fact, the Cain comparison is unfair. Gaius being president doesn'...

Oof. We may have to go through a cylon occupation.

Good grief Goldama. Are you going to incorporate everything from the show in this game?

Except we can't lynch him. How the heck do we get off New Caprica?

I find myself wondering if the lynch tally itself served as the "election" for the new President -- perhaps there's a mechanic built into that role in which a first attempt to lynch him actually elects him instead. In this case that'd mean he's either Glorfindel or sig, depending upon whe...

Upon reflection and role review, there isn't an obvious answer.

What a clusterfrak. The only question is why sig wasn't lynched. And I have a hard time accepting the most obvious.

I still can't find where Glorf has the lead. Can someone please explain it like I'm 5? after then I'll actually dip, need to go get food. Polo's is clearset. It's just up here^^ Glorfindel: Silverwolf (3) , Dex (8), insertnamehere (20), Matt (21), G-Man (24), sig (30) + Vompatti vote 2: glorfindel....

Glorf claimed.

rabbit8 wrote:Well, I was under the impression I would be lynched if Glof did not get lynched, so I made sure sig had the most votes.

You were correct, in danger of being lynched, and your vote for sig made imminent sense.

DrumBeats wrote:Vompatti's vote actually made mine put Sig one below Glorf, so I did not save him since my vote count was off. But to be fair I did not know this at time of the vote.

How is it that you did not know this?

Now we have a conundrum. We don't know why either of these players survived, one may be Gaius, Glorf may be cylon. We don't know anything now because of coinflips... Wilgs, you're laboring under misapprehensions. Glorfindel had the most votes and is a cylon. Gaius' immunity didn't kick in until aft...
