The Syndicate

I'm going with Miyuki too. I think she has deceived and lied through this entire game.

Anybody care to explain what just happened? And voted you know because.....well, I honestly don't know.

This is sound reasoning, and why I think Lyel is one of the bad ones left, unless he somehow rezzed himself, but I don't see how that could be possible.

Well like I said, I know how I was rezzed. Unfortunately, it's not something I can reveal right now. I certainly would have preferred that Gobnait be rezzed over me since he was far more trustworthy than me. But that wasn't how the die was cast so to speak.

I definitely think Anchorette and Fane are worth looking at, as they could either be SKs or remaining baddies. I would also lean toward Shand being thrown into that group. In order right now though, my suspicions are Fane, Shand, and Anchorette. I think that would be the best order to get rid of them in. Unfortunately though, I'm starting to doubt I will be alive long enough to see the end of the game.

Also, I'm still unsure as to how just me getting rezzed makes me bad. Could someone clarify that for me?

Batman. Because he is far more awesome than any of the other options could ever be. This is when I need a batman smiley. Just saying.

Well it seems inevitable at this point, so I will go ahead and throw in my vote for Fane. It definitely seems like he's up to no good. As for how I got rezzed, yes, I know how it happened. But I can assure you there was not baddie intent behind it. Unfortunately there's not a lot I can say about it right now, so you'll have to take my word for it and get us a baddie lynched in Fane hopefully.

BIH Carmen! Glad at least one baddie team is gone now!

I wish I could save the potion as well, so I had a bit more time to decide on it. I guess I'll give it away to someone else instead.

As for inactive players, somehow I doubt the remaining baddies aren't sitting around, not posting, and twiddling their thumbs. I'm thinking we probably need at least 2-3 more baddies lynched before we can be assured of a civ victory.

I will be taking a look at Euro as well once day rolls around.

That's because you don't understand avant-garde music. :P

I went with the curtains. I think evildoers/monsters are more likely to be in the closet or under the bed. If childhood nightmares ever taught me anything.

I'm perfectly fine with a Carmen lynch as well. I think it would be worthwhile for some of us to have a second candidate just in case something happens again. I would lean toward Laine most likely. The Gobnait vote and posting during the previous day made me crick my eyebrows a bit, so he /she might be someone worth looking at. However, I think Carmen should be the main focus for the following lynch.

I am voting elf this time around. Also RIP to everyone who died. This is starting to look pretty bad for us. And I'm also fine with another silent day and voting for Queran. Especially since it now appears that he is Rumpy.

Follow up question: When this whole "lets cut out 90% of discussion and just lynch whoever." strategy blows up in your faces, who will you blame? The people that came up with the strategy? Or the sheep that followed it.

Follow up question: If you're not going to take me seriously why should I?

If it's really frustrating you that much, I would step away for a bit to calm down. It's just a game dude.

Honestly, I'm fine with discussion now and silence during the day. I think it's the only surefire way to make sure Rumpy doesn't manipulate any more lynches on us. And considering he's already manipulated at least half of them so far, I think we could consider this being a taste of his own medicine. I'm fine with voting Queran as well. I was on the fence about him, but his discussion from tonight as well as what Ameerah just quoted pretty much seals it for me. I still think Carmen is bad as well, and I disagree on her being an unlynchable role. I think more than likely, she has a limited number of protections (either from her role, prizes, or a combination) or she requires another role to die before she becomes vulnerable. So I think a few people should pin some votes on Carmen in case something goes wonky with Queran. That way I think we can assure that a baddie will get lynched next time.

Linki: I missed that quote from Rhinfrew. I wouldn't mind hearing an explanation as to why you disagree with the current plan.

Voting Grimms. I prefer the darker storylines honestly. Too much of the "...and everyone lived happily ever after!" BS with the other 2. I want realistic stories where people lose limbs, life, and others they care about darn it! And RIP Gobnait! I'm glad that I didn't listen to the cases between you and Queran for this lynch now. Although it sounds like there was some manipulation thanks to Rumpy. Miserable son of a...

I'm going to go ahead and vote for Carmen now. I don't see much sense in continuing to wait anymore.

Thanks for the cases, Queran and Gobnait. I think both of you make some very good points against the other. However, I'm not sure I want to vote one way or the other for this current lynch. I'd prefer to give it a bit more time to sink in. So while I am not dismissing both of your cases, I don't think I'm going to be quite ready to pass judgement on either of them today. For today's vote I'm leaning toward Carmen. The role-hinting, backing off of it, and then claiming it was a joke and that we shouldn't take her so seriously with that bothers me a lot. So for today, I think my vote will be going to her unless something else comes up.

Actually Gobnait, I think it would be more helpful to me if you did put a case up against Queran. Given that I read through all of those posts in a few hours yesterday, a synopsis would probably be helpful in making a decision ultimately. Right now though I would have to say I slightly side with you being nice and Queran being naughty. As for Carmen, I definitely do not get the warm fuzzies there. And the potential role-hint doesn't make me feel any better. It really surprised me that people started backing off of that when it was mentioned. Otherwise that's all I've got for right now.

RIPIYWG Bac and Etain. From my re-read, I was leaning civvie on both of you.

As for my favorite Grimms story, I guess I'll go with Rumpelstiltskin. Outside of the major ones/any that Disney turned into a movie, I really haven't read or even heard of most of them. That's probably terrible considering what game I'm playing.

As for my catching up, I'm finally done doing so. However, I think I'm going to have to sleep on it in order to absorb a decent amount of it. If any of you have questions for me, I will be more than willing to answer them. But it might help if you can pull quotes or links to certain pages. Because like I said, this afternoon and evening of reading all of that feels like a blur now.

Hello everyone! I am currently replacing in for someone else, so it's going to take me awhile to catch up. I'm on page 15 right now, so I'm hoping to be caught up by tonight or tomorrow morning at the worst.

As for the poll, I usually prefer having a good storyline/background to go off of in a tale, so I went with story.

Thanks

Sorry for being Mia, my father in law died on Wednesday so mafia is the least thing of my mind.

Anyways skimmed through the last few pages , and my gut is saying finnin.

Votes.

I'm sorry I've been MIA, life is pure shite right now, mafia is not my number one priority, that being said, I'm still here, I'll try and address things as amd when they arrive,

I'm voting Carmen I think the case is e strongest

I'm sorry I missed the vote guys, I'm going through a pretty rough time right now so sorry.

I need to catch up, which I will try and do in the next day period.

For now votes candy

Rip Callic

I want a castle votes

I have to vote now or I will miss the vote. I randomed and got jorhan.

I'm sorry I haven't contributed more, I've been really ill and haven't felt well enough to contribute. I am feeling a little better today though.

As for suspects no one stands out, a few helpful people out there with bringing the usual day one suspicions to light, ie low posters. and listing who has to vote who which was helpful.

Someone said something about someone (sorry I forget who) about rumplestiltskin and his power, and how people sometimes subconsciously talk about their role, I have done this in the past, so know it happens when I've hosted I've seen players do it also. Whilst I'm not condemning the other person it is something to think about later in the game, if that person starts acting shifty or becomes more suspect.

Yeah thanks for the chart shand, very helpful, amd a great use of photoshop, very creative!!! And HOMER!!!

Not much has happened to make me vote anyone yet, hopefully that will change soon.

Roxy your posts are awesome!

How awful!! Feel better soon Roxy!!

Yay game on!
