The Syndicate

I was interested to see how the game would play out, because if you had happened upon one of the killers earlier, Snow Dog, it probably would have quickly become obvious who they were and you could have done a great deal of damage. On the other hand, if zebra hadn't missed kills and had spent her money, the Pirates would have had a much easier time. I'm pleased that it could have gone one of three ways on the last day.

Snow Dog! You're the man, thank you for knowing when you are reading the truth. Thank you for believing in me enough to save my life... if I had died and Mac had survived that lynch, this game would surely belong to the Pirates. Also, great work in voting Scotty in that lynch... I followed your vote, but Scotty later convinced me that he wasn't bad, and I was regretting the early vote a great deal. All in all, if the Civs had won the game, I would vote you for MVP, because your mid-to-late-game actions were that damn good.

You were right. Mac and zebra were using a manufactured fight to convince everyone they were not teammates. The unfunny thing is, even after Mac was lynched as a baddie, no one even needed to bring up the Distancing Dispute between them as any sort of proof that zebra wasn't a Pirate - zebra had that going for her through sheer charm and charisma. Great instincts, motel room, you are one smart cookie!

Wilgy: I can't believe you grogged Snow Dog. His Civvieness was airtight! I think you were too deep into The Perfect WIFOM to see.

Un fortunately I had lost a swordfight with Vomps so my vote on Scotty was worthless. I was hoping a lot more would jump on that vote though. i thought it'd end tyhe game at the time little knowing that LeChuck was still out there. But thanks for your comments, really appreciated.

Thanks for a fun and stressful game, llama! It was making me really incorrigible IRL especially when my time was limited, and surprised at this weird heroin endorphin rush I'm feeling now.

That's actually ridiculous. I know I aimed to hunt for the pirates as much as anyone but I was pretty shit at it in the early runnings and it wasn't until the Mac lynch that I felt a bit more confident in who the baddies were, thus forcing me to choose which people to NK. I know Quin was also actively searching for the baddies as well, which is why I love the multiple team mechanic. Everyone actually baddie hunting.

I voted for LC in the LC-Mac lynch for the main reason that I didn't want to thin out the pirates too early, though Snow Dog saved him. Then blocked me one of the next nights so I couldn't kill vomps like i was supposed to. LC, I still owe you a drink as promised.

Snow, I completely believed that you were Herman Toothrot, especially with your infodumping as the Banana King. Was it you that actually use bananas on LC that lynch? Anyway, I wanted to keep you alive on the last day because I thought we didn't need to kill you. Little do I know you were the main thorn in my side the entire time . Totally would nominate you for civ MVP had it turned out that way and I decided to kill zebra the last night instead.

@Vomps- I was sorely disappointed in your final vote, because I was pretty confident zebra was a pirate and I could convince you that I was also civ. I figured it could have come down to you knowingly choosing who to win, and your vote came with the predilection that you thought we were both bad and you "tied" it up, which had no real logic to it. It felt like the game was all was for nothing because your vote didn't even make sense. I would understand if you thought we were both bad and you wanted zebra to win, but that's not what you said. But then I remembered who I was playing with, and I stopped whining like a little girl. Its not like I should be surprised by your antics at this point

Snow Dog wrote:Nahcho. Why did you say you trusted zebra and Snow Dog? This is the comment that stopped me going aftre her and the basis for all my subsequent reads. So it was an unfortunate post from my point of view. I thought you had info.

I am also curious about this.

So... so you didn't think I was bad? You scum, you had me all worked up!

What does "go hamish" mean?

That's uncanny. I went to post what Epi posted and got his in linki.

That's what I picture.

I went hamish in the end too there, Epi. Golden, when I PMed you, what were your perceptions of the game?

On Night Six you successfully blocked Scotty's attempt to kill Vomps.

Didn't he successfully block me from saving MP night 2 also. :P


Thanks for the game it was fun, also I was assuming I saved Epi night one, which is why I was saying the kill happened. I almost protected Epi the night he was killed, but decided against it and went for snow dog I believe.

Props to Zebra she had me fooled 100%

You were town, snow dog was town, zebra was bad, I didn't have much of an idea about vomps scotty or wilgy.

I also thought probably only one cannibal but one pirate being alive surprised me.

First time I played with you Scotty and it was a real pleasure. Was convinced you were civ for most of the time. Also zebra, well played, real ballsy.

Always protect me, sig. Even if you think I'm bad, protecting me always helps me.

What was your reason for killing me, pirates? I wouldn't have been surprised if I was lynched the day after if you'd left me alive.

This was a rather wacky game, and the ending is fitting. It was groovy being your MoD for this one; I had fun watching thangs.

I killed you because I actually thought you were bad lol

I had a weird start to this that I basically worked with instead of trying to backpedal. Team should of won but I suppose the IDGAF attitudes of Mac and Zebra giveth and taketh away.

Zebra why didn't you spend your gold?
MM why did you trust me?
Everyone, that Banana King thing was just a joke with no relevance to anything. I think I was going mad.

Hooray! Go Scotty! Now we can feast

I told y'all zebra was bad Good game, everyone!

You seemed genuine. Also, I saw something that I remember from your meta when we used to play together. That told me that you were a civilian playing as you naturally do, not a baddie trying to adapt to a new environment.

I maintain, your vote record was bad, but everything else about you spoke otherwise.

snow dog-- i hope i get to play with you soon!! it;s been too long.

It'll happen sooner than you think.

Wilgy!

You looked at your role PM before the game started, didn't you?

Long Con made these excellent banners. Wear them with pride!

Thanks, Dom.

I am insanely jealous of that banner.

I disagree. I am mighty proud of my voting record. I voted a baddie every single time except for LC, which I rectified with the upshot....I still voted a baddie ( He was my other choice anyway)

I voted zebra several times, Quin and Soneji......and Scotty!

Oh right, I guess my read of your vote record is still stuck back at the moment I was nightkilled.

Moving this one to the annals of history as the next job nears readiness. Poll thread merged with game thread.
