The Syndicate

BTSC knowledge would have really messed me up.

"Yeah, speedchuck has four BTSC going on right now."

Yeah, if I was targeted for a kill rather than spacedaisy, everything would have blown up. Neither I nor quin had any way of protecting ourselves.

Sorry about not winning with you, spacedaisy and glorf. Once it got to be the three of us left, we figured out how it worked. Majority would have overruled me if I complained anyway, so I let quin take part of the win. Nothing I really could have done there.

Good game LC. My apologies for conspiring to turn it into a drawn-out majority rules BTSC thing. With 5 people in contact with each other in the game, that was inevitable. It would have been over quicker if it weren't for people outside the alliance always becoming lynchproof or getting resurrected.

To those that said I made a mistake by joining the alliance after DH left us... *shrug* We had majority by the next day, and I was the lynchpin. All I needed was to not die that particular day. Any weird play after that was just me being stupid.

And please, some people join Blue Velvet Mafia. I want some actual mafia to play. LMS is wearing me out with broken alliances.

ninja: Yeah, there were clearly some miscommunications in BTSC. Recommend taking it to PM.

I don't understand, why me over anyone else?

Behind the scenes stuff. It'll all be clear soon.

Sorry, I hate to kill you a second time. Wasn't expecting you to come back to life.

Finalize my vote.

You're the one who killed daisy, yo.

Why?

LMS? Same reason you and I cannot finish this game together.

Oh, and by finish I mean "live through"

Quin and I cannot finish this game together.

I targeted quin last night. Can confirm that Quin and I are not aligned.

I love the way you put this, btw.

Anyway. If you lynch me, the nightkill is still out there, as well as a way for INH to jump off the lynch poll tomorrow. These... are not good things. And the common thread is INH. Getting rid of me, or quin, isn't going to solve much, because both of us can create a nightkill with INH. Then there's the anti-lynch. Killing nutella will leave both nightkill options open, and I am not a fan.

Hm. I wonder if, every time a holy dies, a player gets resurrected?

Or perhaps nutella combined with something that allowed eventual resurrection? What do you think, nutella?

Existed*

Hey nut. I didn't know resurrections worked.

By voting INH you are betraying the alliance. Can you tell us why we shouldn't kick you out and/or lynch you immediately?

I mean, if you're going to complain against me and threaten me, at least put your vote somewhere less condemning of yourself.

Or is everyone else of the mind that INH is not in the alliance anymore? Because that would clear up how weird everyone is being.

linki: I know. It's a rather frustrating combinating.

Let me put things a certain way. Everyone in this game is on my do not lynch list. I like you guys. However, there are certain people I have to get rid of first, and Bass is one of them.

insertnamehere wrote: ↑Wed May 31, 2017 4:38 pm You can see my predicament.

I really can. #feelsbadman

Hm.

So by "Tell me where to put my vote" you mean "Hey let's all vote for spacedaisy together"

speedchuck wrote: ↑Wed May 31, 2017 12:32 pm What sort of deal?

In exchange for today's protection, you guys tell me where to vote, and who to fuse with.

I mean, I'm not even voting for you, so I'm tentatively cool with it. So long as you vote for Bass.

What sort of deal?

Aye, I'm pretty sure Bass is the liar here. I've combined with him twice, and based on every other interaction I've had in the game, there is no way that combinations have different reactions when the fusing is reversed.

I've been on the lynch poll every day, too. Voting for Bass.

Life, love, and the like.

I've been rewatching Breaking Bad, speaking of which, how have we not been making references to that show all game?

I've never seen it.

What would you like to talk about?

Wew. A night with no deaths. Nice.

And let me into it.

Man, I don't want anyone who is in the game right now to die. But I have my allegiance to The Org o' Reason, and Glorf has been chosen. Sorry glorf.

Huh.

Consider me surprised.

Bass_the_Clever wrote: ↑Mon May 29, 2017 1:46 am Ok so are we the same element?

So you didn't target me

Bass_the_Clever wrote: ↑Mon May 29, 2017 12:42 am Nope I fused with speedchuck

Lies. I fused with you night one and didn't get this

speedchuck wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2017 11:38 pm Hm. Well, that's a bit OP.

I dunno about Bass, but I fused with Nutella to take myself off the poll. So, I won't be able to do it again.

I mean, nut is the last water according to the flavor

Hm. Well, that's a bit OP.

okay then

So much for saving eloh

eloh no

Glorf, to nut!

Tranq why

Thanks, INH

If epi and eloh sacrifice nut, one of them will live.

Just objectively. It's like some crappy drama.

I don't really want Eloh or tranq to die, personally, so my best bet is to stay put. linki: I like you eloh

And Epi, yeah. they are. But they're trying to manipulate eloh into not dying. You think we're happy about having to kill everyone? About how every alliance in this game is doomed? LMS games are an exercise in denying reality. You can't take them too seriously

Is there any reason you won't join our alliance, Eloh?

Black Rock wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2017 10:35 pm If our players need the full lynch, we can shorten the night instead. We are missing one voter still and it would not be fair to him if he came in after our shortened day and before the lynch was up by the polls time.

Everyone has voted though.

I'm still feeling pretty good about all this, honestly. Better than I would have felt on the other side of a hiring.
And you just said you can't kill.

I can work with all of this, but it feels like a fearsome amount of information is being bandied about

speedchuck wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2017 7:23 pm Yeah, no. If Epi has a guaranteed one-shot anti-lynch, in a game where kills are unknown abilities that are hard to come by, that's stupid. And even if it's true, what will we do? Constantly kill everyone else while waiting for Epi to win, because we can't lynch him?

Either the game is nice and Epi is bluffing/only lynchproof today, or the game is broken and we need to expend Epi's ability anyway.
I'm convinced.

Well, I suppose you have a point, and we do have another double lynch today so perhaps we could use one on him to use it up -- but then he'll just target Glorf again... unless Glorf is lynched.

With this strategy in mind I will vote Glorf and hope enough others do that he and Epi are the top two, and hope it works. Though part of me is still nervous about the coolgang and wants to whittle down their numbers

My point was more that Epi doesn't have what he says he has. I'm not killing Glorfindel based on Epi's bluff.

Yeah, no. If Epi has a guaranteed one-shot anti-lynch, in a game where kills are unknown abilities that are hard to come by, that's stupid. And even if it's true, what will we do? Constantly kill everyone else while waiting for Epi to win, because we can't lynch him?

Either the game is nice and Epi is bluffing/only lynchproof today, or the game is broken and we need to expend Epi's ability anyway.
I'm convinced.

Either Epi was bluffing yesterday and happened to find the right element today, or vice versa. But wasn't he responsible for one of the kills this morning?

insertnamehere wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2017 4:52 pm Can we double-target? I just assumed we couldn't. Can anyone disprove this?

We cannot target the same person 2 days in a row. There is no day 3 results yet, so we can't disprove targeting the same person 2 times at all.
That was your question, right?

It seems like a pretty good idea reasonable organization. I'm pretty sure I can get them to let you in if you're up for it.

If you ain't them, then you is us, and them is gonna put the hurtin on us if us don't put a hurtin' on them.

If I'm reading this correctly, it's one of the first remarks I've seen from you this game that makes sense to me. At this stage of the game with the number of players rapidly diminishing, I wouldn't be rushing to join an 'alliance' that will limit my chances of personal gain by removing players with whom I might personally gain considerable advantage from fusing with for a day or two yet.

Someone's gotta go. However you slice it, someone will be lynched and an option for fusing will be removed. Yes, lynching someone not in the "alliance" will limit your fusing options. So will lynching literally any person.

To shift the topic of conversation, is anyone gonna be pushing for No Lynch?

I won't. There are too many people who are quite threatening, given the information that they currently have.

linki: Back to you, INH. Perhaps we can get through a day of being buddies without someone randomly killing you, unlike in survivor. That was a short alliance.

And just why might that be, my friend?

Pure selfishness. I don't want other people potentially having what I have.

But that's taken a backseat to this cult speedchuck has unwisely joined.

Wait, are you STILL unlynchable?

Epignosis wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2017 2:21 pm You can frame it however you would like, but what you've made public is that you four won't be killing one another and won't be voting one another. Is that true?

If so, then it's all I need to know in order to conclude that you four are a threat to the continued existence of the majority, and that all it takes is for your quartet to lynch two people who aren't in your posse, manage to kill one of the outsiders, and then, provided you experience no misfortune during the Night phase, you will have obtained a majority. Four of you against three of us. And you can pick us off at will.

Nah.

But it isn't the four of us. Literally anyone can join the alliance, and make it the five of us, the six of us, the seven of us.

I'm in.

Epignosis wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2017 1:21 pm The four named in INH's post all "agreed to be in DH's group last night." They formed a clique. The numerical error for them is that their crew is at four members, with six outsiders outnumbering them by two. If they want to stick together in that fashion, then they have essentially declared themselves a mafia who will work together to outlast the outsiders.

If you read DH's mission statement we formed it to help people in a jam that was willing to pay us back.

But then everyone is willing to do favors in this game and be paid back. Surely it's something more than this.

Whoa. All of the "big players" are just about gone. That's crazy. Game's half over.
