The Syndicate

I've never been to any of these planets, I don't know which to choose....

lol

Omg Sorsha just slipped up!

I don't even know what planet my role is from. Or any of the roles for that matter... I've seen the movies but I don't remember all those details.

I just assumed you meant you were an alien in human form (think: 3rd Rock from the Sun).

However, you seem a bit nervous.

What do I seem nervous about?

Lol, I'm just messing with you.

I missed playing mafia.

Did I also seem nervous about seeming nervous? :P

I'm looking at Starwars.com for info about these places, definitely not going to the Death Star though!

Tatooine- A harsh desert world orbiting twin suns in the galaxy’s Outer Rim, Tatooine is a lawless place ruled by Hutt gangsters. Many settlers scratch out a living on moisture farms, while spaceport cities such as Mos Eisley and Mos Espa serve as home base for smugglers, criminals, and other rogues. Tatooine’s many dangers include sandstorms, bands of savage Tusken Raiders, and carnivorous krayt dragons. The planet is also known for its dangerous Podraces, rampant gambling, and legalized slavery. Anakin Skywalker and Luke Skywalker both grew up on Tatooine, and Obi-Wan Kenobi spent years in hiding on this desolate world.

Endor- Secluded in a remote corner of the galaxy, the forest moon of Endor would easily have been overlooked by history were it not for the decisive battle that occurred there. The lush, forest home of the Ewok species is the gravesite of Darth Vader and the Empire itself. It was here that the Rebel Alliance won its most crucial victory over the Galactic Empire.

Yavin IV- One of a number of moons orbiting the gas giant Yavin in the galaxy’s Outer Rim, Yavin 4 was a steamy world covered in jungle and forest. It was the location of the principal rebel base early in the Galactic Civil War, and the site from which the Rebellion launched the attack that destroyed the first Death Star – a confrontation known thereafter as the Battle of Yavin.

Hoth- Hoth is the sixth planet in the remote system of the same name, and was the site of the Rebel Alliance's Echo Base. It is a world of snow and ice, surrounded by numerous moons, and home to deadly creatures like the wampa.

Dagobah- Home to Yoda during his final years, Dagobah was a swamp-covered planet -- a forgotten world where the wizened Jedi Master could escape the notice of Imperial forces. Characterized by its bog-like conditions and fetid wetlands, the murky and humid quagmire was undeveloped, with no signs of technology. Though it lacked civilization, the planet was teeming with life -- from its dense, jungle undergrowth to its diverse animal population. Home to a number of fairly common reptilian and amphibious creatures, Dagobah also boasted an indigenous population of much more massive -- and mysterious -- lifeforms.

Alderaan- If ever one needed an example of the irredeemable evil that was the Empire, turn to the shattered remains of Alderaan. An influential world, Alderaan was represented in the waning days of the Republic by such venerated politicians as Bail Antilles and Bail Organa. A peaceful world, Alderaan was bereft of weaponry in an era of galactic strife. It was not without spirit, however. Alderaan was one of the earliest supporters of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, though its officials prudently kept all ties to the Rebellion secret. Despite such discretion, the Empire knew it to be a haven of Rebel activity, and Grand Moff Tarkin targeted the beautiful world for reprisal as soon as the Death Star was operational. The massive primary weapon of the battle station obliterated Alderaan, leaving only a lifeless asteroid field behind.

Cloud City- Suspended high among the pastel clouds of Bespin is a floating metropolis of sophisticated beauty and political freedom. Cloud City exists not only as a mining colony, extracting valuable Tibanna gas from the depths of the giant planet, but also as a sanctuary for those trying to escape the turmoil gripping the galaxy. Though profitable, Cloud City is small enough not to be noticed by larger authorities such as the Mining Guild. It prospered under the capable stewardship of Baron-Administrator Lando Calrissian. Calrissian, assisted by his aide Lobot, contended with self-sufficiency issues and labor difficulties throughout his brief term.

Death Star- The Death Star was the Empire’s ultimate weapon: a moon-sized space station with the ability to destroy an entire planet. But the Emperor and Imperial officers like Grand Moff Tarkin underestimated the tenacity of the Rebel Alliance, who refused to bow to this technological terror…

*****

Cloud City and Dagobah sound like the nicest/ safest to me. I'll probably go with one of those.

Just kidding. I'm catching up now...

Here is where zebra brought it back up for discussion, about 12 hours or so later.

Golden and MP chimed in immediately with regards to my vote in response to zebra's comment. MacDougall did too, but he was the victim, and this wasn't his first mention either.

Golden - Well Golden had one post in between when the vote happened and when zebra recently brought it up. Also his response read sincere to me.

MP - On the other hand, MP had 7 posts after it happened and before zebra brought it up. Not only that, but this was MP's response. He didn't comment on it before (not until zebra brought it up saying she was bothered by it). MP agreed he was also bothered by it, though admitted to not knowing how to handle it. But he also awkwardly used the word "also" twice at the very beginning of this post. It looks like sentence restructuring, meaning MP was trying to pick his words.

So did you sell your vote and you think MP bought it and made you vote for Mac?

Reading it again, he really was pushing Death Star. A lot. If you ISO his posts he has more posts about Death Star than anything else by far.

Then there's this quote by him here:

Matt F wrote:Why are we being mean to Dragon? He voted Death Star

Which might indicate he had civilian information on Death Star. But since the hosts won't confirm, it's pretty WIFOM to try to make anything out of this. What are your thoughts, Sorsha?

This post of his he's eye balling all 20 people who didn't vote for Death Star:

Matt F wrote:Zebra hasn't shouted in all caps yet.

Matt F, what's on your mind? I can't recall anything you've said, which is either due to the fact that I'm sick and not absorbing the thread as I read it, or because you haven't talked enough yet. Either way... throw some stuff at me.

Most of my posts have been about Day 0 and really wantin' to get up to that Death Star. Nobody wanted to go though (yup, I'm eyein' all 20 some players who didn't vote for Death Star)

I wasn't necessarily joking with that last post of mine, either. The games I've seen of her, she's been all civ and each time she gets really intense (which is a good thing, IMO) but I don't believe I've felt that from her in this game. In addition, in the few games we've played together we've had a few jokey posts and for her to eye me for having fun about Dragon... Hmmm

Zebra - You know I can always assist with idiotic logic. What did you think of this post, for example? Were you really eyeing me for my comment on Dragon or were you having fun?

Hmmm

So yeah, I'd guess Matt had info that Death Star was a civvie choice. Doesn't mean he is civvie though and doesnt mean that everyone who didn't vote Death Star is non-civvie. Lets thank the hosts for giving Matt day 0 poll info... As if he doesn't tunnel on day 0 enough

I don't have time to catch up. From where I left off last time I was most pinged by matt. I'll vote there

Golden wrote:Hey @ Roxy

I don't remember you addressing this.

In one of your early posts you said 'Sorsha day 0' - do you remember what that was supposed to mean and if there was more to the thought that you didn't get out?

Yes it was her opening post followed by a really weird reading explanation post of her first post. The whole thing read quite odd and I am not sure why she felt it necessary to make a huge post about the planets since several people already had - one was sufficient to determine where one wanted to go we did not need 10 of them. hers was one of the last ones and I felt it was done only to look like she was contributing.

If I put effort into something I'm not going to not post it just because someone else posted something similar.

Plus, my list was better

Zebra- what happened to your bass suspicion from yesterday?

Golden- you too, you said you thought bass would be good discussion for this phase but I haven't seen you talk about him yet...

Players are arranged alphabetically within groups.

I made only a handful of changes because there's hardly any new content by which to judge almost anyone... and there are still way too many low posters.

Not that I mind being green on these rainbow lists but what made me move up when I've barely been posting anything at all this phase?

I have no idea who I'm going to vote for today

I am voting for Elohcin. I don't feel like her vote for zebra is genuine.

Yes

Perhaps you are zebra's teammate.

For real though...Zebra's tone just isn't of her normal civ self imo. Could I be wrong, sure. But I think Bass and Enri both have a good chance of being civ. So I didn't want to place my vote on either.

As far as I know I'm not on zebras team, I'm a part of the rebel alliance so if she is too then yes, we are teammates.

So what changed for you between day one and day two? Because on day one you voted for Enrique but now you think he is civ? That's why I voted you btw, your change with no explanation and your vote out of the blue with no explanation.

Can you quote posts of zebra's that are showing her non civvie tone? I'm not trying to defend her but like bass, it seems like zebra is quite easy to lynch at times as well.... Or at least gets herself into trouble early.

Maybe it's nk's that keep taking you out.... It just seems like you're out fairly early in the last few games.

But I am feeling the arguments I've seen about you being bad as pretty good so far so

This post doesn't sit right with me. The blue part just sounds like something a baddie Sorsha would say.

Funny how that's a perfectly lie detectable statement that you don't like there BR

Golden wrote:MP (and whoever), I'm interested in thoughts on my Roxy read.

I agree, roxy was one of the first players who gave me some good civ vibes.

Trying to catch up now

I'm voting for bcornet. His vote for golden was bogus- I couldn't even find a post for it. I'm hoping we can win glorfindel over to the Syndicate before we lynch him I really didn't have enough time to go over his posts to make up my mind and gth I'd say Zeebs is civ right now.

How does the poison work? Is it always +2 or does it increase each day?

What are we voting for in this poll?

You can vote for up to 5 people.

For what point?

Are we killing 5 people? Giving 5 people presents?

sig wrote:Yeah I don't wanna vote for myself if something bad will happen to me.

I find Enrique saying I was scum to be interesting especially since he said earlier he didn't think I was scum. This is slightly pingy.
Also good job on Bcornett two of his teammates knew who he was, and one didn't.
Welcome back Matt/Bass are you two scum this time around?

We aren't allowed to vote for ourselves anyway

Ok zebra.... Gimme the tl;dr of that big ass post.

@sig- Maybe! Once I decide who the other 4 to vote for will be... And if this poll is for good stuffs or not.

Maybe if we find a group of five and we can all vote for each other? hopefully the poll is for something good!

Golden wrote:Paranoid theory: Enrique and simon are team hutt. Go!

I think Simon and eloh are on the same team, not sure how that would fit with your theory.

First five people to vote for me get a vote back, if they want it.

Okay why do you think Simon and Eloh are on the same team?

Because I don't think an 8 year old has the capacity to play a game like this solo.

Either way Sorsha I voted for you.

You'll get one of mine once I'm done deciding who else to vote for.

Meh- I'm not feeling the Enrique case. He seems pretty sincere to me

MacDougall wrote:

Sorsha wrote:Meh- I'm not feeling the Enrique case. He seems pretty sincere to me

bcornett sounded sincere too. Not every scum player is incapable of lying without coming across like a really bad actor. The points are stacking up against him.

And civ players do dumb shit that makes them look bad. Remember me in talking heads?

Yeah but the main idea here is that civ players behave like civ players and we try to find inconsistencies in the posts of the players and lynch the ones who are more inconsistent and/or genuine right?

Civs can dig themselves into big holes trying to defend themselves.

What exactly did bcornet sound sincere about anyway? He didn't even give a reason for his vote yesterday that I could see...

Voted Enriqe. Hope you're bad!

Linki- I just want answers!!

Simon wrote:Good choice sorsha. I think Enrique should be killed because he voted for me.

I voted for you yesterday, do you think I should be killed?

RIPiywg mm

PULL

Welcome back llama!

Voting Simon for now

Derp... I'll hold my vote. I almost forgot they weren't changeable

I know it's super lazy but I'm going to stick with the Simon vote too. MM was doing an ISO of Enrique before he died and his last words were that he wanted Simon lynched.

Votes Simon

sig wrote:Interesting thing about Simon he was R2-D2

BTSC with C-3PO. R2D2 receives a transmission from another group’s BTSC.

I will ISO Simon with this in mind, he could've very well been dropping hints about what he heard in BTSC.

Everyone thoughts on Sorsha?

Sorsha has really no idea wtf is going on this game and is stupid for signing up for three games. Luckily she was killed off in one of them so she should have a little bit more time to spend on this one. I'm sure she is civ though since I've seen her role card. Anyway, hopefully she'll get some reading in this morning before she falls asleep, she works third shift so that sucks for her too.

Golden vs Mac, kiwi vs Aussie, east coast vs west coast, bloods vs crips, etc etc

I think Macs theory is fine, I checked the last couple of games Golden has played (recruitment and world reborn) and Golden Didnt make any memes in those. Mac might be bad too but I like the meme observation he found for golden.

What does it matter whose theory it was?

Golden wrote:I wish I could pull quotes and stuff... but that takes a lot more time than just the engagement of reading and posting, time I genuinely just don't have.

But - I hope that people will choose to look at his iso and my iso.

I think you will see that my iso is full of a very genuine progression of thought on both bcornett and enrique. I talked about how I felt about each of them and why, and when my views changed I explained why. It's all there.

For Mac... his views aren't particularly backed up, and you should really look at the progression of his opinions on me, as well. I think they represent the views of someone who sees me as a threat to their game, and wants to find a way to get me lynched by getting others against me. He has used some very emotive negative language about me to that end.

Have you ever bussed a teammate before?

Voted Roxy.

I wish I had thought of the rage quit first, although I'm not bad this game/thread is extremely unpleasant to have to come and read/participate in.

Oh dang

Who is disappointed?
