The Syndicate

I wasn't going to look at the dog park, but then all people could talk about was the dog park, and now all I can see is the bloody dog park.

My favourite mythical creature is the merman. It will drown all of the other creatures. It doesn't matter how many times a phoenix comes back, in the water it is just a damp bird.

I voted Singapore, I want to go see Heiots.

Boy, you're going to make this game tough...

I'm voting for Ninja because, umm.... yeah.... no particular reason...

Oh thank god. I was worried there for a moment.

You are definitely not a doctor

I find this unreasonably funny.

I know what you meant. It's just a good turn of phrase.

From my end, I am also not mafia and can't speak for anyone else.

We all know you care, Epignosis. The secret is out.

Why is the poll locked so that we can't vote? Or is that just me?

I'm not voting for Tony.

I think we should launch a 'find and return Marmot' campaign.

I thought that was already a thing.

Dammit, I'm so out of the loop!

I don't think I've ever played with Neverwhere and she was a civilian. So it doesn't surprise me that she found the idea entirely foreign in Pokemon.

can ya read me Jack, can ya?

I've so far had reverse pings from Made, LoRab and Tony. If no one ever looks suspicious I'll vote amongst the people who haven't given me reasons to get town pings from them. I'd give this a fancy name but I don't want to make anyone upset

I still can't actually vote in the poll, which may make my day one vote moot. Hopefully I can vote in thread.

Speedhuck - why you say my quote is town and then give a blank face as my smiley. Surely the comment about me being town was either you leaning town or you being sarc and leaning away from town, it's odd you would say that and end up blank on me?

Well, now that you've gone and pointed that out, I might have to continue butchering your name for the rest of the game. It's out of my control.

I hope Timmer knows it's game on.

I'm currently mulling over a few people. Boomslang. Rico-omeletteaufromage. Dom. Sprityo. Jack. Why should I not vote you folks.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 6:22 pm Why Boomslang? Why Dom?

Why not?

That's not just an annoying rhetorical answer by the way. I looked down the list of names and found people who, in this game, I feel like I know least about... and you, because I'm not sure what I think of you yet. But I did like your response.

Long Con could yet get my vote too, although I tend to start reading him well if I give him some time, which I'm always mindful of.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 6:28 pmThe meaner Dom is the more town he is?

That's an interesting perspective. I don't think I would say that... I see in Dom what I see in LC, there is more of a truthiness/earnestness to their town play that they have trouble replicating in tone when bad. What you think of as 'mean', I'd call 'genuine hunting'.

Having said that, this is a two team game, so genuine hunting isn't inherently town-leaning. Everyone should be doing it.

What do you people think about my early assertion that Made is town? I said so on page one.

I think inh refusing to answer questions is inh. I have a tendency to read him as bad, but I don't think he actually changes style much one way or the other (from what I've seen).

I think quoting the rules to make a joke while butchering them yourself is not a baddie thing to do.

Wilgy, that vote seems a bit self-defensive. I don't even suspect you (yet...)

I have a few moments now to catch up and then it will be dessert time because I'm the greatest mom ever and then I'll have to do bedtime routine. I can't lwave it to last minute or I might not make it.

Misattribution. I don't know who said that but I don't think you pulled the trigger early. I don't think pulling it at the start of a day is early, pull it whenever you like. I'm going to have to pull it soon myself.

Epignosis wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 7:47 pm I hate not having a poll to look at.

speedchuck (Elohcin)
Golden (Made)

Is this right so far?

Wilgy, not Made. Unless Made also voted for me and I missed it.

Oh, Wilgy said it, Eloh.

He also voted for me without any prior ping or discussion :hmm:

What do you think that I think you are doing?

Also, how come you only responded to me in half? I asked two questions so I clearly deserve two questions back.

I can't necessarily always deliver on what you deserve, I'm sorry to say.

I think I disproportionately suspect you early in games (possibly because whenever I don't, you're bad and win). I think you voting me potentially pushes towards removing a thorn in your side. Do you think this analysis is unfair?

(Boom - it's a second question! But now you asked me two more. I'll never keep up.)

I have found nothing to award anyone a good guy point for so far. What have you found to temporarily exonerate three people?

Made quoted rules at you while failing to observe the one everyone else was observing... the most important one to that moment. He forayed into the rules with a certain intent, and that intent wasn't to be cautious or careful. I might not take this as town leaning for just anyone, but for Made it felt very town. I'd go so far as to say I award him more than one point for it.

LoRab's wording in response to the first accusation she was bad didn't just make me laugh, it also reminded me a lot of town LoRab. She tends to get heat for such turns of phrase incorrectly, and I've noticed this over time.

Tony, I just liked how he held his nerve with you. I thought your accusation was one that held situational, rather than universal, merit, and you were looking to test to see if it held merit in this case. I think Tony's explanation indicated a genuine mindset around how to make his own hunting easier for himself. Again, I don't want to overdo the credit I give for hunting given two mafia teams, but it gave me some minor good feels.

Made wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 8:06 pm Epi- what is your favorite adjective?

No.

That's an adverb, cretin!

I SEE MARMOT!

The noun is "English Language". Mastery is the, err... verb. And no is the adverb?

DrWilgy wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 8:22 pmSuggestions that I'd lynch you to remove you from the game makes me think that you believe I have no NK capacity.

1) False equivalence. Baddies use lynches as a tool just as much as a NK

2) I wasn't implying you are bad. Town Wilgy is just as likely to feel that I am a thorn in his side. I've lynched town Wilgy plenty.

You're definitely going for an 'attack as defence' strategy, though.

What happened the last time you thought you could call me out on day one? Have you ever actually successfully read me as bad?

What record?

Most grammar fails?

Voting Dom

Was tempted towards a timmer vote as well, but that would be a policy lynch. Dom isn't.

I called out my potential dom, timmer, boomslang, LC and rico votes ages ago

All of that was for inactivity.

I can't discourage you from a non-changeable vote, Wilgy. In many ways, if I were to be mislynched I'd rather day one than after I'm invested. But I'm not beyond some dirty tricks to get you to rethink your own perspective for the future.

You shouldn't forget that if you think I'm being illogical, I don't indulge in lazy underthinking when I'm bad.

speedchuck wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 8:37 pmC'mon it's a 24 hr day game. Give the D1 no-shows a little slack right?

No way. In speed games it's only a more effective tactic for this reason, especially for experienced campaigners.

I can't read your mind.

Apparently you can, because I didn't expressly say my Dom vote was for inactivity either.

OK, I'll give you the points. For now

I'll also say that in the event Made is bad, whoever said 'I don't think you and Made are w/w' might be his teammate. Was it Jack? It was cute in the circumstances, and I don't think that read should be accurate with two baddie teams.

Epignosis wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 8:45 pm Golden, what makes Dom not a "policy lynch?"

Me actually having grounds to read him as bad.

See you all after the lynch.
