The Syndicate

We have a fair amount of couples playing here, so the idea that one player may not be so heartless as to advocate removing his/her life partner (especially right off the bat, i.e. Nights 1 or 2) may sometimes recur. I wouldn't mafia clear anyone based on this argument either, particularly since all these couples can be badass playing as mafia or trying anything while mafia. Tis the point of the game. But fwiw, Boom did not agree to kill Ninja without any heavy heart, but he did agree to its fair logic and proper timing, so that's that.

I updated the HoF, not gonna send PMs this time.

Interesting facts:

Epignosis' first heist. Nice to see he experimented with the three power roles, rather than play it conventional.

This is Made's first mafia win. Ever.

This is Wilgy's first indy win. Evah. Guy has 20 wins under his belt now.

This was my first mafia roll [pretty bad timing for it, tho] since Feb 2016 and first mafia win since March 2015. I know I didn't earn it, but shhhh.

There... isn't any other such game.

LC died because on that night we said "which two civs are least likely on D5 to turn against each other". Answer was LC and Eloh. And look at that, D5 then ended with the civs voting each other.

Congrats mafia, boom mostly. Why did you kill blooper night 2?

Sorry for the civs who tried - you, speedchuck who did well to bust me. It was entertaining, though, to see things get gradually easier for us - that idea of attempting a tie on Made vs Neverwhere (a complete no-shower) while expecting Made to not break it in self-defense made little sense (plus Wilgy would have broken it the wrong way for you, anyway), today's lynch nowhere near threatening for us. It happens, c'est la vie.

I think we proceeded to kill each night the civilian we considered to have too much civ cred - or rather little prospect of being brought up as a suspect - into the next phase. I'd say that's the same for ninja as it was for speed before her, or Dom or LC afterwards. Not too shabby that we got some roles out of the way fast, too.

Thanks for the carry, Boom and Made!

Nay, it's because you shot the pianist and killed the music of this soiree. Pat yourself on the back for that, old sport.

Good stuff. Self-preserving myself, but since it's a 50-50 shot, I'll perhaps see you in the next one. Gimmicking yet again, you can be sure of that.

I thought the same thing.
Oh man, it would be funny
If you're a baddie.

Kinda like karma
Decides to not pay you back
For your good last game.

I do find it odd,
That you broke from your gimmick.
Are you scared Rico?

Just wanted to send a brief message to ninja in particular and thank for her kind, knowledgeable treatment. I couldn't care less about civs mislynching me "cuz gimmick" otherwise - but Hosts who have witnessed me... yeah...

I'd hate to waste more than one day on that.
