The Syndicate

gawd. *stamps foot and pouts*

See folks, that's why I never had a girlfriend. Always interfering with my game time and junk.










......kidding. glad you guys had some time. Glad alex is getting some rest. Take all the time you need sockface. We're fine not knowing if we asplodeied or not.

I love bea dearly and she has played great game, but I am leaning towards giving the win to boom because he is a newer player than her, and I think the win would mean more for him than for her. And I'm a little biased toward Cohen since I was a Houdini Spliced in that game.

I am voting for Boom to win. But I still love me some Bea.

*votes*

I'm going to assume us Red Room scrubs can now post in this thread. If not, feel free to delete this post.

I want to see what bea and Boomslang can say in order to sway us to vote for them. At this point, I don't really have a preference either way.

This is correct.

I was taught it was bad manners to tit your own horn. Boom played a great game.

*votes boom*

*toots bea's horn*

Nothing against Boom, but I can't vote against Bea. *Votes Bea*

randomized bea :o

Bea was under the gun in I don't know how many different lynches, always being constantly scrutinized over whether she was a baddie or not...even escaping a lynch or two if I recall...not to mention numerous NKs and such. Call it biased it y'all want, but becuase of all the above reason I feel she deserves the win.

lol at my phone typo.

Can't believe none of you heathens had any smarty comment for it.

Also, now that I have a bit of time. It should also be mentioned that boom had a heck of a role to play. Pretty much an indi w/o a kill - stay alive - don't collect votes. Had I not flaked and fell for elo's "oh! Not me!!!" cries the first time around, we'd have had this game over by now and goosey would have been alive. He played a tough roll well.

I voted bea to win, because I'm pretty sure that was the plan we all would have followed.

I am impressed by how close boom got though! Not at all an easy role to manage.

Also, I am happy that the boxes didn't explode and kill us all! :-)

Also, I feel like the way I played my role kind of broke the game, and I didn't intend that to happen. I apologize for that.

When moriarty mentioned me early, I hinted a little because I thought I was going to get creamed in the lynch vote, but them MP gave us a code to break that clarified my win condition to such a degree that I was left in an unpleasantly safe and powerful position :-(

So I pivoted into coalition-building, since I did still want to win in the safest way possible - when god gives you pie, you eat pie.

i thought when I got the role hint - you were henderson.

I thought it was when you were worried my death was you related. my powers were sooo insanely crazy to try to predict then apparently everyone who could manip a power maniped mine. I got to the point where I literally asked alex - here's my notes on my menu. I know you know things outside of the game - can you help me fill in the blanks as best you can.

fwiw - my role hints - were the youtube videos initally - the "it must have been those pills I took" the "you did it to yourself" (because somehow my eating something made *me* insanifed) but the *big* hint - the one BDH referenced was the most daring - it was my off topic diatribe about how I had to eat the LAST 3 THINGS IN MY PANTRY. It came *after* lizzy had said that she was King of Town in the original game. I was hoping that if she and SD were civ - they would pick up on the fact that I was talking about eating the last three things in the pantry. Obviously - bdh knew we weren't in that dire of economic states and picked up on it right away.

After the bit about the last three things in the pantry though, I never hinted. And goosey nailed my role. I avoided responding to it because I thought that doing so would be confirming or denying.

also - thanks for that - but we can't predict what would have happened one way or the other. svs trusted/suspected me like every 42 seconds (see what I did there wif da numbers svs? )

I still think boom deserves the win just as much as I do.

I really REALLY REALLY wish Elo hadn't conned me right now.

Well played elo - really - you were the slippery and trickstery baddies of all.

I have to vote my girl bea. She's a veteran champ.

Good game to both of you!

still sad I've not seen a "tit your own horn" joke yet.

epi - lamma - devin - don't let me down.

bea wrote: alex - I really wish you would consider the idea of boom and I both winning. I know it goes against his win conditions, but since we are stopping the game w/o playing it all out....he played hard and he played well. I played hard and I played kinda ok. I think we both deserve it. I dislike that my win comes at the expense of his. You are the host - you can create or dis-create at your pleasure. I'm only in this game in the first place because daisy decided that everyone on team Blue Lazor won - live or dead, playing or not. As far as I'm concerned, boom would have been a townie had I not been conned.

Alex - I totally agree with this.

In case you don't though here's how I see it. Cohen's win conditions say this: "Wins by surviving, but only if everyone else alive has never doubted him." Since bea is the only one left alive and she has doubted Cohen I think that makes bea the clear winner. Bea congrats, regardless of how the poll comes out. Maybe my logic is screwed up but I have no time to think through it anymore - I am voting for bea. Boomslang, you played a marvelous game and congrats whether you win or lose.

This^

Plus I think she played a civvier game. As a civ this matters to me.

Elo is quite the heart tugger, isn't she? She has a career as a baddie in the cards.

And i always trust/susp you ever 42 seconds. I buy whatever you're selling SO HARD that it makes me tense, and i doubt my gut, and another 42 second cycle begins.

I voted Bea

Wow. That's fairly impressive then. I guess that confirms the idea that Fetus is dead then. Yay civvies!

This is a tough decision, but I'm going to be in the minority it looks, and go with boom. Mostly because I think his win condition was much harder to fulfill, and with him being a newer player. I think both bea and boom played like Champions in this game for sure though.

Alex, if this is the easiest way for you to end it, then I'm fine with that. And I'm sure all of us are. It was a very exciting, unique game!

Yeah, the rules as written say I should not win. But screw the rules, I have a vote for myself! :P

Seriously, good game to everyone. I told you so about Elo, just sayin'.

I agree with you teefies. Prolly for the first time since the wraslin' game.

I'm srrsly glad you said screw the rules. FWIW - I was pulling for you to win since I cast my vote.

Good game Boom!

Yeah, you both did play an awesome game~ I wish Boom could win, too

Man, when I first saw the poll, my heart almost stopped a bit and thought: holy shite! I've blown everyone up!

But I don't want to have to choose. :\ Two completely different play styles, two awesome players: bea really did justice to a role I could not handle in the original game and went through a lot and still managed to survive; and boom was managed to carry the burden of such a complex indie role without drawing too much attention on himself.

Imma gonna randomise k. You both deserve to win. [/cheese fest - butt it's ture]

Why don't the people who haven't voted just try to make it a tie?

I want them both to win so I voted Boomslang on the off-chance of forcing a tie (there's still plenty of people left to vote!).

This game was amazing.

I don't understand what happened to all the other people who were alive. I thought maybe they blew up but I don't see any post saying that. Someone, what happened?

juliets wrote:I don't understand what happened to all the other people who were alive. I thought maybe they blew up but I don't see any post saying that. Someone, what happened?

They all won - the endgame is down to boomslang (who is Cohen) and bea (who is a civ that voted for Cohen). Since nobody else remaining voted for Cohen, it's really a choice between the two of them, and MP just distilled that choice down a bit.

Fortunately not randomly blowing any of us up just beforehand :-)

Agreed they both deserve the win and I'd be happy to give it to them. Voted for boomer because he was pretty memorable as tofu boy too.

I updated the secrets in The Red Room roles.

Also, here are these two roles:
• Damo Suzuki - [Avant-Garde 2] – This crazed singer has a personal bag of mushrooms he can tap into every night. Others might consider him an expert on the matter of such substances, but he is really too inarticulate most of the time to even consider the thought himself. He can grab one mushroom at random out of his bag every night to use on himself or on another player of his choice. Unbeknownst to Damo, there may be a few other random non-mushroom items in that bag as well.
o Contents of Damo’s Mushroom Bag:
o d1 – White Mushroom – Blinds any player who uses it, forcing their vote the subsequent two days for a random player, and randomizing their night target the following two nights.
o d2-d4 – Yellow Mushroom – The player who eats this feels a dislike towards players of another origin. If the player votes for another player whose role is from a similar game as theirs, he protects himself and that person from night kills the subsequent night. If he fails, nothing happens.
o d5-d7 – Pink Mushroom – The player who eats this feels a like towards players of an another origin. If the player votes for another player whose role is from a different game than theirs, he protects himself and that person from night kills the subsequent night. If he fails, nothing happens.
o d8 – Grey Mushroom – The player who eats this mushroom cannot post or vote the following day.
o d9 – Polka Dot Mushroom – The player who eats this feels overwhelmed. If the player posts at least 20 posts the following day period, their vote for that day is worth 4x. If they fail to do so, it is worth nothing.
o d10-d11 – Ege Bamyasi – A player can throw this can of… something at another player, attempting to role block them (50% chance). The player who was hit with it then can throw it at another player the following night, etc.
o d12 – Smelly Socks – They smell terrible! Causes a player to commit suicide (50% chance) due to the smell.


• King of Town - [Homestar Runner] - Has a smorgasbord buffet in his castle. He will choose one item to eat each night, giving him a one time use ability the following night, but he won't know what the item does before he eats it.
o Smorgasboard Buffet:
o Animal Phat – Gives the KOT one night kill.
o Biscuit Dough – Gives the KOT one role check.
o Butter-da – Insanifies the KOT.
o Cardboard Boxes Covered in Syrup – KOT may choose to eat any number of boxes. If odd number, his vote the following day is worth however many he eats; if even, it is worth negative the number he eats.
o Chocolate Dipped Tapeworm – Role blocks the KOT.
o Denture Tablets – KOT can stick two players together; whatever happens to one, happens to the other as well.
o Deodorant – Gives the KOT one role block.
o Hello Kitty Erasers – Resets the night cycle.
o Last Three Items in the Pantry Special – Allows KOT to eat three items.
o Motherboard Covered in 70% Cocoa – Randomized everyone's night targets.
o Prescription Ice Cream – Protects KOT from all night actions.
o Regurgitated Food – Lets the KOT choose one food he has already eaten.
o Schenectady Crispies - Steals a player's vote from them the subsequent day.
o The KoT's Good Gravy - Nullifies the vote of a player the subsequent day.
o TV Remote – Lets the KOT redirect one other player's night action to a player of his choice.
o Whatsit – Kills the KOT.

Well done, everyone! And great job, MP! This game looked utterly insane to try to run.

I'm also wondering if I ever got targeted for kills. I spent the later half of the game just trying to use powers that would make me unkillable for that night.

The amount of detail that went into this game is absolutely insane. MP, bravo! I'm sad Zodac killed me so early because I was just getting into my role of Bob. Congrats to the winners! You deserved it! And here's to another year of Mafia!
