The Syndicate

Hi.
I used to play mafia. I miss it!
Also, my husband was on the team that made the original Mass Effect.
Therefore, I am cool by proxy and should've signed up for this game.
Now back to your regularly scheduled slaughter...

The Emperor was Empire aligned until he turned Luke.

Did the Hutts have a similar traitor/recruit mechanic available?

ugh. Hutts suck.

Fuck it. I'm voting for Simon. I hope you are all right about Enrique, but for me the case on Simon (mostly his bcornett "save attempt" that Golden pointed out) is the stronger case and more likely to net a baddie. Here's another interesting Canucklehead as Hutt post... Canuck did you kno...

I see your unannounced vote there, Bubbles. There's no way you've been silenced. i'm here, i've fallen a bit behind on the thread, added my vote to the one opposing the one dfaraday voted on basically :P and i'm pretty sure mac and matt are civs so i feel ok with voting the same as them How do we f...

How about the part where Elohcin and Llama swooped into the thread on the day MP was lynched and tried to push Spacedaisy as a counterwagon? Not forgetting that Zebra said that she had info that said Llama is dead Empire. Shit. Did not notice/remember that. (Doing totally decontextualized ISO's whe...

So Eloh's ISO is 97% fighting with Roxy, 2% OT, and 1% saying Z is bad and voting for her. I don't think Eloh is a Hutt, since bussing doesn't seem her style. As for the possibility of her being Empire, there is one early game interaction with MP that actually struck me a LOT like the stuff I found ...

Mac, you're right that MO could have encouraged SD to join in the mutual bussing...I do remember thinking her initial posts after she subbed in were genuine/civ-feeling, which is what is causing me to doubt what was (I think) a believable case for MP bussing Glorfindel (which is maybe why he did the...

What the hell, Matt?

That probably should have been I green, but I forgot due to BLINDING RAGE.

So, remember that time I was trying to be super conscientious and plan ahead for my holiday-travel-day-from-HELL by voting early but then I fell asleep and didn't think about until I was I. The security line at the airport BUT THEN I missed my FUCKING FLIGHT because American Airlines gate agents are...

I need to vote in the next three hours, or before I fall asleep. Whichever comes first. I'm traveling home for the holidays and seeing FUCKING STAR WARS tomorrow, so I can't guarantee I'll be in at all. Russ' vote for me out of NOWHERE is just lovely. I don't know what's changed your mind about Wilg...

Fucking semantics. The Hutts are alive still and Yoda said Sorsha wasn't one so I was wrong about Sorsha. Leaves Dom, Canucklehead and Bubbles as possible Hutts imo. Not exactly fantastic reduction so let's focus on Empire. Wilgy ... what you think of Elo? Whoa. How am I a Hutt, exactly? :blink: Li...

Scary thought about possible recruiting. Definitely something we should keep in mind, but I am skeptical since Empire started with the same number as Hutts, and it doesn't look like Hutts had a recruiting mechanism or a power that could help balance Empire recruiting. I'm not sure if Epi/DH would gi...

I see there are six votes left. I encourage you all to vote Zebra. It shouldn't take much, she's done the work for me. Look at the votes on me: Zebra: An outed baddie. Matt: Allegedly didn't mean to leave his vote there. The only person on this wagon I don't distrust. Mac: Has been twisting my word...

Bullzeye is bad for the same reasons Elohcin is bad. Him pretending that nobody has made any remarks about why is bad is great. So is his amazing backtrack. Start of the day it was "we should lynch Zebra, obviously" and now it's "I actually think we should look at others, but not me....

I'm shocked Mac voted how he did, That's not where I thought he'd place his bid. I want to vote for Elochin, She's shifty, and she blends right in, Which tells me that she's tried to hide, To always lurk just on the side. But will my vote there be a waste? What's the point? Yet I must make haste To ...

I'm really unsure where to vote. I think we'll learn less playing rote And taking out known entities Who cannot kill, and aim to please (And that's just what Z claims to be: I trust, but maybe joke's on me?). Today, I'd rather find a choate From th'Empire to get my vote Since they're the ones who ki...

And Sorsha, 'Nucks, how do you feel about her? I hate to do this to you, but I feel that I can trust you-- I was wrong to doubt you earlier. Sorsha's one who I forget Is even playing, but then yet That in itself does not look good This far along as civvies should Have made their mark, been right, b...

Canuck, I don't want to make this too difficult on you, but who do you think is a good lynch alternative today? Trusting Z is hard, you know, But I liked her (brief) case on Eloh. Wilgy also seems to fit If we've got lurker Empire shits. But would MP allow his team To be as absent as Wilgy's been? ...

I'm kinda pissed my zebra hunting work
Is useless now she's gone berserk
But I agree we're best to let her smirk
And help us take down empire jerks.

Rudolph the red nosed reindeer

What the funk.
This game got crunk.

Deck the halls and all that junk.

Sorry I missed the vote, everyone. I was at the emergency vet.

Also, can someone please tell me what the case against dfaraday is??

I'm really, really tempted to vote for the first option, just to see what the hosts will do....

I thought Glorfindel was suspicious as fuck, so I'm not averse to Daisy being lynched...but I'm really confused as to why the tide is suddenly turning against MP? I have no idea whether I can trust llama or not, since he hasn't done much since replacing in other than make declarative statements wit...

This game has devolved into nonsense, I see. Are there any sane people left?

Seriously? Not a SINGLE thought on my case? :sigh: I'm starting to understand what you high-poster type people are always on about... Now you begin to understand. :srsnod: Well, I obviously think zebra is bad, so your case has some merit on that front. :beer: I was pegging her for Empire though. I ...

Seriously? Not a SINGLE thought on my case?

So back to my Z-Hutt investigation. To recap, after looking through her Day 1 posts, I had some minor-moderate suspicion that my hunch about Z-Hutt was right, based mostly (though not entirely) on the way she ISO'd bcornett. Then, during the last cycle I believed that Z's curse was inflicted by her ...

Wowzers. Lots of shit, lots of fans. Z, my suspicion of you was based on a general feeling I got during the Mac/Golden exchange, which I initially laid out, which you shot down and I agreed that my reasoning was unsound on that point. The general feeling did not go away, however, which lead me to b...

How many of you would classify baddie hunting MP as emotionally manipulative? I would. For surezies. wait... baddie hunting or baddie? Baddie yes. Baddie hunting no. Poorly phrased question. Rephrasing: How many of you would classify baddie MP as emotionally manipulative? :p Yeah, I misread that. :...

Now all of you, fuck off. I have to DO WORK.

Why? I am sincerely suspicious of you.

Obvious attempt to distance from Hutt team by team/self-targeting is obvious.

Ah, my voting record. The bane of my mafia existence, in this game and every other. :sigh: It's totally my own fault, so I accept whatever suspicion I get based on my failures, and all I can say in my defense is that I am terrible at participation, regardless of my alignment. Just take a look at my ...

So zebra obviously has about a million posts to go through. I am under no illusion that this browse through is going to be in any way comprehensive, and I'm sure I will miss things, but this is the best I can do in the time/effort I have available. I've focused on Z's interactions with and about kno...

Okey dokey, I shall now attempt to actually make good on my promises to contribute something more conrete than vague opinions and agreements with other players to this game. My priority is to look at zebra's interactions with known hutts, and if I have time after that, I'd like to look at Eloh (who ...

Forgot to add: Roxy, I hope that whatever is upsetting you can be worked out and that you're not really gone for good.

You're integral to this site!

Well fuck. That was an unpleasant catch up. :( And now I've used up all my mafia-time for today reading instead of posting/looking into zebra/trying to get my head out of Mac v. Golden and onto players I actually think have a chance to be bad. :sigh: I'm going to go ahead and vote Roxy. She obviousl...

I'm here. I just....don't know? I think both Mac and Golden are civ? If it really were a 1v1 and I HAD to choose one of them to lynch, I think I'd lynch Golden...but I would do it thinking that there was a very good chance Golden was civ. I think, honestly, that zebra looks the worst out of the whol...

Mac, can you answer my question to you, pretty pretty please?

Golden, if someone were hypothetically going to go on a hunt for your role hints....where might they begin? Especially if this person happened to be rather obtuse and bad at picking up hints......
