The Syndicate

I fully expect the Golden gang to try to lynch me or Turbup for reasons that will go unarticulated so w/e I’m embracing death in case it’s me

I’ll be sad if it’s Epi or nut considering I gave them bill$

Let the bastards try and lynch us, and draw them out of their holes. Bathe in the blood of our fallen comrade and use it to make ourselves stronger.

Turnip and I will both have to give away some cash now.

I'll give Epignosis $250 and give nutella $150. Turnip can handle the rest of nutella's, and give to nova.

*minus sig's money

So I think we currently have $2200 ($2400 from two jobs = sig's $200)

$2200 / 5 (right now) = $440 but we can't do that, so I recommend splitting it up 4 people get 450 ($1800) and one person gets $400.

[mention]Spacedaisy[/mention] , I'm sure you've answered this, but what happens to your money when you die?

My vote is Epignosis if I have to choose, or the captain himself.

I will give my money to someone that we can all agree on, but I'd prefer to wait until the phase ends and we know they won't die immediately.

In fact, probably moreso, because there's this narrative that I'm always looking scummy no matter what, but idgaf about that.

Being on the lynch poll

What's the reason for suspecting me? I keep seeing people lazily toss off that I'm probably bad, that they don't like me vaguely, but never once has it been substantiated that I can recall.
TH trusted you to get us an item. You didn't get it and screwed us over. You could be teammates
Yeah ... except it opens me up to possibly dying as much as it does you. In a world where the scumteam is down one person, I'm not playing around and sticking myself out there just so you guys can be on the lynch poll.
You didn't know that someone would die until after you failed to get the item though

I would also be on the lynch poll with you in this scenario.

nutella wrote: ↑Thu Aug 16, 2018 11:16 am Or you could be bad without TH, but it's odd that he chose you

I wasn't expecting to get the money either, but

if there's a transfer mechanism, I'll gladly give it to someone else.

Everybody give legacy reads in case you're the one that gets chopped.

I'm reasonably sure speedchuck is playing his bad game here. He's stiff and content to vote whichever way the wind blows.

I'm sorry I didn't buy the clamps in time guys.

Also I'm Zoe Washburne so yeah we're fucked

If none of us as a crew have any, is there a point to me buying anything then? I know someone will die, but ...

Town:
ColinIsCool
DharmaHelper
Epignosis
Glorfindel
nova
nutella
TH

plausibly scum:
DFaraday***
Dragon D. Luffy
Enrique***
Golden (but probably not)
insertnamehere
Lunalee***
speedchuck***

Idk:
Mac
Marmot
sig

I have worst vibes of the starred ones. dFaraday is playing a very stiff game and I can see him as bussing Sokoth. If anybody on our crew is bad, I'm sorry but it's probably Nova or Nutella but I don't think you are right now. I suggest putting Epignosis on the poll because he's very unlikely to get lynched, but do what you think is best.

[mention]Turnip Head[/mention]

I have +3 attack so if I get a diplomacy item that would put us at +1.

Golden is bonkers if he thinks the people on his crew don't look like shit. Dude is probably bad and hiding behind this Glorf nonsense

There are only +1 diplomacy buffs in here. What are everybody’s stats?

Or should I wait and see if something better gets stocked? Aaaaaaaaa

I’ll see if there’s something with high diplomacy buffs.

Turnip Head wrote: ↑Wed Aug 15, 2018 11:05 pm Colin didjya get that doohickey for us?

No, somebody else bought it by the time I tried. What do you want instead?

23/24

DDL votes Luna (1s)

INH suspects DDL and Nova and TH, calls Sokoth case dumb

INH votes Luna (2)

TH says Sokoth looks worse than Nova

Nova slightly backs away from Sokoth case

Nutella puts Sokoth near bottom of rainbow list

SOKOTH asks about Wilgy’s activity

Colin says DDL lynch is best

Speed votes Marmot (1) (Luna at 2)

Luna votes DDL (2-2 tied)

INH puts Sokoth in deep green on list

Nutella votes Speed (1)

I can actually prob finish the whole thing before N2 ends but I’m leaving work in a few minutes and heading to the gym after so not yet.

I’m doing this because if I don’t survive the night I want y’all to see what I mean. Obviously I have 6 pages to sift through but from that I think Golden looks bad, Glorf looks bad, Speed’s question looks like a redirect and Nova looks great.

My recap of D2 through the bottom of pg 22

DH votes DDL (1)

Nova votes Sokoth (1-1)

DH defends Sokoth from lynch saying don’t go after his guys

TH invites a counterwagon to DDL in general, possibly Sokoth

Epi votes Wilgy (1-1-1)

Glorfindel hard defends Sokoth

SOKOTH offers vague wishy washy reads on Glorf and Golden

Golden sees these votes, notes to look into Sokoty, but expresses dislike of TH

SOKOTH says he doesn’t understand the TH wagon

Colin says Sokoth’s reaction to Nova seemed fake, but leans DDL

DDL soft defends Sokoth for being new

Speed asks “Is Nova usually this aggressive?”

Well, obviously I would have been better off voting there if I were scum but I didn’t do that, so there you go. I gave him benefit of the doubt having never played with him and nobody seemed inclined to help me figure him out.
No, here I don't go. The efficient bussing vote never really materialized when you were in the thread iirc, so don't "would have been better off voting there if i were scum" me lol.

When you were around, I was the only one on his wagon and you just kept dancing around with it. So yeah, you wouldn't have been better voting for your buddy, since it would have only kickstarted his lynch at the time. Instead, what you did is mention you're uneasiness with him but never committing.

The wagon materialized and got a lot of heat extremely fast, and I don't believe you were around at the time.

But eh, here are just my raw thoughts on how the lynch and case against him developed. Got more damning stuff than this to concentrate on for now.

Fair enough. But I wouldn’t have danced around his lynch at all had I been scum — iirc I was the first person to call him out on false tone, and in a game with this many people and other things distracting players, why pull a teammate into something when I don’t have to? Not my bag. You don’t win mafia games inviting problems for your team.

Hydraulic Docking Clamps - $650 - One time use, Turns an incomplete job into a complete job
"Vera" - $650 - +1 Attack +1 Diplomacy far as long as the player holds it (+2 Attack if it is Jayne who holds it)
Kaylee's Reprogrammer - $650 - +2 Technical for as long as the player holds it

These are the only items I'm interested in for our crew. I want "Vera", does someone else want to buy the docking clamps or reprogrammer? Technically we can buy two of these if we complete our next mission and split the money all smart-like.

You’re probably my top town read right now so just take my money and do whatever with it

Yeah Golden tonally oozes town but his obsession with you is strange to me

I think this Glorfindel truth meta thing is ridiculous btw, what does it even look like when he’s scum?

What does Courage have to do with it? Are you implying some parallel

Remember the post I did one of the last phases where I walked through the Long Con lynch and made note of all the central arguments and votes for him as they developed? It helped me identify every single scum and 3P that was left. Too late to convince people, but still.

Wow, I thought Sokoth was fishy and should have voted with that feeling. Great job! His big post might give us a lot to work with.

I don't have a role check at all. If I am killed, consider somebody on this ship.

Turnip Head wrote: ↑Fri Aug 10, 2018 10:49 am I'm going to assume that everyone here is town as fuck, for morale purposes

What are the odds of an all-town crew though? Not to stir up bad blood, but, y’know ...

Turnip Head wrote: ↑Fri Aug 10, 2018 10:47 am I'm assuming it checks alignment and not just role?

My thinking is that if we get a red read on DDL or Enrique, it would be easy to get thread momentum going against them. Harder to do that against a Wilgy or a Marmot, unless we just act super obvious about the info. A green or red peek would both be useful on DH or Luna, imo

I agree. These are people with substantive contributions to the thread and all have some sort of sketchiness so we can assert the evidence. Probably take Luna out of that, but one of the others.

I do like the idea of checking someone who is hard to read, but those two are both inactive so it doesn’t give us much to work with.

Same tbqh :/ My picks for the role check are DDL or Enrique

Those aren’t bad picks. I’d also suggest nova, DH or Luna, but I think scum may have just been letting a bunch of townies duke it out yesterday.

Turnip Head wrote: ↑Thu Aug 09, 2018 10:21 pm What's the money for?

Don’t you dole it out to us or something?

In case anybody was wondering, Josh Allen’s first pass attempt in the NFL was a 40-yard nuclear missile so speedy that the camera could barely keep up and that, somewhat unsurprisingly, went out of bounds.

Turnip Head wrote: ↑Thu Aug 09, 2018 9:43 pm +2 attack here, do we win?

I think so, barring someone:

A. is town but is mistrustful of you (I think?) and so would rather sabotage the job
B. is scum, and would rather attempt to sabotage the job

I have 3 attack.

I’m a smuggler. Well, I’m pretty sure anyway.
