The Syndicate

TH you better destroy the competition.

So TH, you doing push ups and running up and down staircases and beating up sides of beef and shit like that?

TH - Lotsa luck my friend!!

Just one piece of advice if you are gonna use moves like Jagger do not use :




Be more like this:

You know keep' it real

I have indeed been working on my dance moves in preparation for the game And I'll start my Rocky training montage right now due to SVS's suggestion

I'm nervous you guys!

Lol, no pressure or anything, you're just playing for our dignity here. I kid.

Seriously though, just have fun and be yourself, you'll be fine. You're oretty,uch the most kick ass player I know, so win or lose, I'm glad youare representing us!

Don't be nervous TH. Just learn a few of their norms - like if you're a seer, if you hit a baddie you have to claim unless you hit the baddie the first night then its ok I think to peek the second night too. If your lucky you hit town - town - baddie or wolf i guess they are called. The important difference from our games is you're expected to info dump once you've found a baddie. You will be killed of course in the next nk.

Aww do not be nervous TH! There was a reason you were elected to be our rep - its because you <3 all root vegetables and as long as you remember that you are gonna be ok.
Seriously though anyonein your position would be nervous but please know that yes it would be great if you won but what is most important with this Championship game is making connections and new friends - something that is already occurring so in a way you have already won for our forum!

Ask MP for some music videos of incredibly obscure prog rock and fusion bands, so you can post them throughout the game. Then players won't touch you with a 70-foot pole.

I wouldn't be nervous. And I wouldn't make any new friends, either.

If he wins I had faith in him the whole time.

GOOOOOOOOOO TURNIP HEAD!!!!!!!!!

Do your best, TH!!

I can only offer you this sage advice in preparation for your round:

In case someone will ask you if you are bad, the answer you should give is

'No'

Make lots of friends and be zany is my mafia advice!

I approve.

When exactly does it begin?

Long Con wrote:When exactly does it begin?

Monday!

Best of luck!!! I hope you do super well.

TH, make sure to post the link to the game here

You ready, TH? It's game time.

Good luck Turnips!

GO TURNIP HEAD!!!

Everyone who is so inclined should cheer him on in the spectator chat. I've been in there from time to time and it's a real good time, but now is the chance to cheer on our rep.

Not sure how much I'll spectate, given that I don't normally use Skype, so perhaps someone can post an update from time to time here as well.

Other than that:

Despite having a busy schedule, I have every intention of keeping up with this game completely. Hopefully I can.

Rico, I think it's a great idea to post updates about what's going on in here. I will try to do so as long as I don't get beaten to it by someone else (which would be fine, since I may not always be timely).

I don't Skype, either. I just follow the thread.

TH- I'd love to tell you I had advice on the dawn of your big day, but i don't. If I thought I knew something more than you already know, I'd have voted for myself. As it stands, I voted for you. Because I'm pretty sure you are way better at this game than I am.

That said - have fun and good luck1!! I'm rooting for you from my WAAAAAAAY like parking lot part of left feild.

The skyping is a lot of fun. And if you decide to do it make sure you mention you are cheering on Turnip Head. He has posted twice so far but nothing that has garnered bad attention. I think he's at work now until 7:30 ish.

I mispoke - TH is still there. Another player just called him "wise"( but not in a bad way) due to an analysis question TH asked.

I don't like this game. Some people are not very nice. Too many pissing contests

What language are these people talking in lol

I believe someone post counted every player and TH posted only four times, yikes, but he actually didn't raise suspicion so far on anything, I think, woo.

Also, is Soneji the same person as the one who registered and plays already here? We have a double shot at having a winner, in that case. :P

fz. yes, some people are not very nice in these games but I was glad to see the guy who called someone else an idiot got called out for it.

Rico - yes that is the same Soneji.

I didn't see Sonjei play there? Is he in TH's game?

He's under a different name, he's from Naruto forums.

Soneji is WolfPrinceKiba over at NF and 2 + 2.

Apologies for the multiple post, but FYI, wanted to remind everyone of this:

I double checked Thingyman's post and he expresses concern over discussing reads, as follows:

Thingyman wrote:

Made wrote:Omg, we could have a thread watch thread!!!!

Regarding this, I ask that the participating sites refrain from openly speculating on roles and such in places where your representative's competitors could see it if they wanted to. You could openly discuss and laugh at and comment on general matters that don't revolve around giving and expressing reads on the game without any issue though, of course.

We will have a Skype spectator chat that everyone is invited to join (and where you should feel more than free to discuss reads). It was a lot of fun in season 1. We had more than a hundred people at one point.

So feel free to comment about the game here, but make sure not to speculate on roles and such!

What's a "peek"?

Ricochet wrote:What's a "peek"?

The cop (seer) receives a pre-game check on a random vanilla civilian, so the n0 peek they are referring to is that ability.

More generally, peek essentially = role/alignment check.

I skimmed around a little bit, some of those players are really hard core, I would never be able to play that way

Good Luck TH! I hope you make it very far

Every single person playing is a baddie except TH.

I need to read this later! Good luck TH! You will do us proud

Good luck catching up on the thread. :P It's going pretty quickly.

I just checked. Yea that's not happening

I tried to read it today and found it sixty pages long. I only read posts by our intrepid hero, TH. They were very good posts indeed.

It's getting tense in there.

I think TH should really get in there...

Is it safe to discuss tactics or is there a risk of other players (or their supporters) checking this thread. I'm genuinely intrigued if how TH handled the entire D1 was intentional or natural, but I'd be glad to discuss it post-game, if that's the better thing to do. As far as the style of his posts, I also think he did a good job, but it seems to receive very mixed reactions from the other players.

Less than two hours and a half before Day ends there, fingers crossed!

On a less serious note, I really wonder how all these players would react to a non-changeable vote system, tee hee.

@FZ: Me too, but even if he does, he'd have to be very careful. I believe he can pull it through, anyway!

I think there is a very real risk that players or their supporters will be checking the thread because I'm pretty sure they already have (and I don't blame them).

Consequently, discussing what is happening in the game (as if they are current or historical events) I think is OK, but any sort of speculation or risk/strategy-assessment regarding those events seems not only unwanted by Thingyman but also likely unwise for that reason.

I've been so busy with studying today that I haven't had a chance to read any posts since early yesterday evening, but I hope to at least skim tonight. Meanwhile, Daisy has been keeping me at least somewhat updated. So while I don't know what situation he's currently facing, I am forever confident in his abilities. And regardless of how he performs, I'm sure he's representing us well, especially considering his schedule restrictions at the moment.

Yes, IsoStardust, I think, has mentioned his site doing a meta check on TH's (and the other player's) games.

I think you're right about what to discuss and what not.

Indeed! Pretty intense. I figured people would consider meta but not to that degree.

Since I have no idea what his role is, nor did I read most of his posts, because I have no idea how to find his posts, I can say this freely: I read a post from one of the players where he said TH is acting and is acting badly, or something of that sort, and said he's being very unsubtle and undoubtedly bad. Pissed me off, LOL. I really hope TH isn't bad Some of these people are so full of themselves. I don't envy TH. I wouldn't have fun playing with them

There's a 23% chance TH is bad.
