The Syndicate

Hello players (specifically mafia)! Long Con came through again with some excellent banners. Wear them proudly.

That's it.

Yup!

I think you and Long Con thought they offered benefit for any player, so you continued to give them to players you trusted. Unfortunately for DrWilgy, it's hard to lynch an obvious civilian like SVS.

Elohcin wrote:This is what happens when civs act like monkeys bouncing off the walls in the beginning of the game. Just sayin.

Guilty as charged.

Elohcin wrote:@MM, is this a win with your team dead or alive situation?

Yes, all players on the winning faction will win dead-or-alive.

Yubaba looked around the bathhouse. "Where is everyone?" She demanded.

Dom approached her carefully. "You killed them all." He said. "That or you turned them into bears or mice or spiny lumpsuckers."

"I wouldn't mind being a spiny lumpsucker again." DrWilgy mused. "I really enjoyed it here when I was like that."

"Well where is that S~V~S then? I need a new manager and she's my best fit." Yubaba said.

"You really do have an awful memory Yubaba. Don't you remember Cthulhu visiting last night? You presented her as a gift to him." Dom replied.

Yubaba stroked her chin as she looked at Dom. "I've meaning to get a cat lately. I don't know what I've been waiting for. I've got the perfect solution!"

Dom has been turned into a Cat.
S~V~S has been Nightkilled.

It is now Day 8. You have 48 hours to lynch somebody.

Shall we lynch Yubaba today?

Having hosted a few, and modded a lot, I am always amazed at how deceptive appearances can be. I think he is probably bad. Based on your in thread interaction with him, I thought it was both of you, but I could be wrong.

Let's see what he has to say.

I also want to read back through Faraday & Llama. It is bearly possible there is only one left an there was a redirect.

Fixed.

"Hello friend." G-Man looked up and saw a figure walking toward him through the shadows. He squinted his eyes, before realizing this face was very familiar.

"Hello Coward. I know why you're here. Yubaba sent you, didn't she?" G-Man asked.

"That's right. It is time G-Man. Yubaba finally discovered where her manager had gone off to, and she wants you eliminated. And you know very well what happens when Yubaba wants something?" Golden said. "We all know what happens."

"Tell me Golden, why did she keep you? You were there with me. We both stole her magic for ourselves. We both fled together when she caught us. You should share the same fate at me."

Golden smiled. "We both know the answer to that question G-Man. Goodbye old friend."

"Goodbye Coward."

G-Man has been lynched. He was Chichiyaku.
S~V~S is no longer a bear.

It is now Night 7. You have 23 hours to send in those night actions.

S~V~S was tired and annoyed. She really wanted a nice relaxing bath, but the nearby bathhouse didn't allow bears inside. And it was run by a cranky old witch. Anyway, S~V~S went back to her cave to sleep. What she didn't realize was that she had fallen asleep on poor Bubbles who was having a nice little picnic. Bubbles usually don't do well when mama bears lay on top of them.


S~V~S has been turned into a Bear (again?).
Bubbles has been Nightkilled.

It is now Day 7. You have 48 hours to lynch somebody.

Yubaba is so cruel! Well who is she?

Yubaba stood at the edge of one of the baths in horror. "What in the name of my evil sister is that?"

"That is my friend." DrWilgy said as he mosied over to Yubaba. "He really likes the water here, so he's relaxing in the tub. He's a Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker, and he's..."

"I don't care! What is it doing in my tub?" Yubaba inquired.

DrWilgy replied "I already told you. He's my friend, and he likes the water here, so he's relaxing in the tub. He's actually..."

"He's your friend is he, is he? Well then I'll take good care of him." And with that, Yubaba smashed the little creature. She turned to DrWilgy, gave him a swift wave of her hand, and tossed him out the window into the ocean.

"Yubaba! That was Long Con! You just squashed one of your employees. He ate something funny and turned into that, before DrWilgy saved him." Sorsha said.

Yubaba looked at Bubbles. "You'll be smashed too if I hear another peep out of you."


DrWilgy has been turned into an Spiny Lumpsucker.
Long Con has been Nightkilled.

It is now Day 6. You have 48 hours to lynch somebody.

Who turned G-Man into a penguin? Sprityo into a zebra? Sig into a pile of ashes?

Maybe, maybe not.

But I can assure you that if Chichi redirects a player's power, the new target will not be the same as the old target.

"I swear it wasn't me that took your roasted newts Yubaba! It must have been someone else." Long Con pleaded to Yubaba.

Yubaba stood in the center of the bathing area while everyone was preparing for another day. She kept a stash of roasted newts handy in the kitchen when she was in the mood, because they were quite tasty. Some of the folks in the area had gathered around to see what was going on.

"What's the problem Yubaba? Is Long Con shirking his duties again?" DFaraday said as he approached.

"No, my newts are gone. You wouldn't happen to know anything about it would you?" Yubaba said as she glared at him.

Before DFaraday could reply, he was shoved forward from behind. "I bet it was him Yubaba, he's always filching things from the kitchen." DrWilgy said.

"That's right. He took my lunch today. I'm starving!" Elohcin chimed in.

"And frankly, he's just unbearable to work with in general." S~V~S grumbled.

Yubaba looked at DFaraday. She seemed to grow in size as she approached him. "What have you done with my newts?" She asked heatedly.

DFaraday mumbled something incoherent, then sprinted toward the open window, and flew off into the mid-morning sun.



DFaraday has been lynched for a second time. He was still Yu-Bird.
G-Man is no longer a penguin.

It is now Night 5. You have 23 hours to submit your night actions.

Long Con wrote:RIP sig. And welcome Zebra! What happened to sprityo?

Sprityo asked to be replaced, so Yubaba turned him into a zebra zebra willingly obliged to replace in.

Yubaba stood and watched as the tubs were cleaned. "This place is turning into a dump." She bemoaned. "sprityo, why are these tubs getting filthier and filthier?"

"Our soap isn't as good as it used to be. We're just as good as before, we just can't keep up with these cleaning products." Aniyaku replied.

"Wrong! That's not what I want to here! I want you to work harder! Do you not want better tips from our customers? Do you not want better pay from me? Do you want to work here forever?"

"I never got my raise." Sig mumbled as he walked by.

"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! That's it!" Yubaba turned on sig and fired a blast of flame at him, killing him in his tracks. She turned and caught G-Man and sprityo with another blast of magic. G-Man waddled away in a rather peculiar fashion. Sprityo leaped back to his feet with a mighty grin on his face. Except, he didn't look very much like sprityo anymore.



G-Man has been turned into an Penguin.
Sig has been Nightkilled.
Sprityo has been replaced by a2thezebra.

Kamaji was another terrible day. That leak that was bothering him the other day had only gotten worse. He had managed to shift the pipe, but a leak was a leak.

Just then, Lin popped through a panel in the wall. "Food is here!" She cried. "Here you are Kamaji. You didn't finish your lunch? Why aren't you keeping up with your meals?"

Kamaji started shoveling down his supper. "The lunches lately are awful. I'd rather just wait for dinner." He said between mouthfuls. "And I don't have time to eat. There's too much necessary maintenance that's going unattended right now.

"You know Yubaba. If the problem doesn't bother the customers, the problem doesn't exist." Lin sighed. "But if I can help you out on an off day, then I'll be down here. You can count on me." She gave Kamaji a wink.

"Here's your food!" She hollered to the Susuwatari, scattering their food about. "We're out of the normal feed, so we'll have to make do with this until Yubaba can get some more."

Kamaji started. "That's not the old feed is it?"

"It is, what's the problem?" Lin said.

"There is yos in that! A couple of the Susuwatari are allergic to yos!" But before he could say anything further, one of the Susuwatari keeled over. Even the smallest dose of yos was too much for him.

Soneji has been lynched. He was a Susuwatari.

It is now Night 3. You have 23 hours to submit your night actions.

Nope! The cops win. Gotta stay trendy around here.

Seems like all of the Syndicate games are ending today. I guess I'll just go ahead and end this one now. :P

I can cheers to that.

Yubaba gives herself a holiday once a year. But it's not a true holiday. No, she spends her holiday relaxing inside her own bathhouse. Being that she literally owns the place and everything inside it, she can have whatever she wants with regards to food, bath, and attention.

This year was like any other year, Yubaba settled down in a tub that was specially designed for her. She was perturbed though, the walls around her weren't nearly as clean as they should be. Those little grunts of hers have been slacking.

"Why is there grime on these walls?" She spat out at a passing cleaner. "Just because I'm not a paying customer doesn't mean I'll be treated like this. I'll..." But the cleaner sped off before she could finish her sentence. Within seconds, he was back with a bucket of water, and cleaning away.

"No you idiot, don't go cleaning it now, I'm relaxing here!!! You get the cleaning done before the bather arrives. What makes you think I want to see you cleaning?" She ranted on.

The cleaner looked up. "Aye, I'm sorry ma'am. Aye, I thought I should clean it. I'll get it right next time, aye." he replied, shifting his feet.

"What's your name?" Yubaba demanded.

"Some people call me Jerry." He said. "Aye, but..."

"I don't want your buts. Get out of my sight! But before you do, do something about those ayes." She waved her hand.

Suddenly, Aniyaku came huffing into the room. "Yubaba! Terrible, terrible news. We've just gotten news that DrWilgette was hit by two trains." he managed to get out between breaths.

Yubaba sank down to her nose in the cooling bathwater. "I'm surrounded by fools." she burbled.



DrWilgette has been Nightkilled.

It is now Day 4. You have 48 hours to lynch somebody.

Kamaji was having a pretty rough day. Yubaba wouldn't give him the raise she had promised, nor had she remembered to send anyone downstairs to help with some minor remodeling in weeks. As such, the boiler room was wearing down. Kamaji cursed as one of the pipes overhead leaked some boiling water down the back of his neck.

"Come oooon you little cretins, get to work!!" he hollered at the Susuwatari. That reminded him, they needed feeding to. They had to work hard to keep the spell on them alive, but they also had to eat to work. Where had Lin gotten off to he wondered.

The Susuwatari slowly returned to carrying their little shards of coal to the boiler. One in particular couldn't make it any longer. Poor little Quin was crushed beneath the wait of his oversized piece. Kamaji was too busy cooling his neck off to notice, and the other Susuwatari continued about their work.

Quin has been lynched. He was a Susuwatari.

Kill witches please.

Morning came early today. Yubaba sat up with the alacrity of a witch nearly 200 years younger, but not because of the excitement of more business. No, something was fishy this morning, something was off. Yubaba quickly donned her usualy blue dress and flew downstairs to the floors below. She observed as her employees went about their usual business. Scrubbing, waxing, cooking, getting ready for the work day to begin.

Then she spotted Scotty and S~V~S. They made eye contact with her, and quickly turned their glances. Yubaba knew something was off, so she sauntered over.

"Empty your pockets!" she demanded. Both Scotty's and S~V~S's turned the color of blooming cherry blossoms, and they emptied their pockets out. Scotty unveiled a handful of small golden nuggets. S~V~S showed a little sliver of gold and a book of bear puns.

"You dare take my gold?" Yubaba shrieked. "That is company property, and I am the company. You know what happens to those who take my gold?"

Scotty gulped. Everyone else had frozen in their tracks to watch the spectacle. They all knew what was coming next. Scotty didn't have a chance to take another breath as he was smite down in an instant by Yubaba. She turned to S~V~S who sat on the ground before her, quivering. S~V~S quickly thrust the gold and book into Yubaba's hands. "Where did you get this gold?" Yubaba asked.

"Scotty gave it to me. I didn't know he stole it from you. I apawlogize." S~V~S replied, gaining a little bit of confidence.

But Yubaba did not have a sense of humor. She waved her wrist, and S~V~S no longer sat before, but instead a little bear cub.

Ther other employees quickly returned to work, seeing that the excitement was over.

S~V~S has been turned into a Bear.
Scotty has been Nightkilled.
