The Syndicate

And, I have a low level migraine, I'm tired and cranky, and I have copious amount of sushi on its way to me. I may or may not be on much tonight. I should be around tomorrow.

RIP Robyn and Abigail.

Sorry I after the fact suspected you, Robyn!!! I clearly haven't learned how to read you, yet.

[VOTE: LC] aubergine

And yes, I realize if I'm right on long con, I may have been wrong on Robyn. but I'm not sure he wouldn't have voted for a teammate based on strategy.

Also, as it is nearly mafia dawn, I feel safe in posting that I very much suspect LC. Sorry friend, but I think you're bad. I'll do a linki post later or tomorrow with more substantial reasons. But it's based mostly on read. He will almost certainly be my vote.

Sorry--Nutella. LA used to be her nickname based on prior user name. LA is her name in my brain.

I see.

Alright well if you don't desire for me to actually solve you, I'll move on.

I am dissapoint that the following wasn't part of this exchange:

Dammit, LC. Wilgy is a doctor, not a lawyer.

What kind of strategy were you thinking? Someone suggested putting up one (town) player to try and boost their power, and one (wolf) player to eliminate... but that plan has an obvious downside, were we to pick the wrong song. Who suggested that? Suspicious.

I'm not sure. But I think it should be discussed. I don't remember who suggested that plan...but I'm not sure putting it out there to be discussed is a bad thing. I think we should all have a conversation about how to decide who to put up. I'm trying to think through a strategy that the baddies couldn't manipulate to their advantage.

I also don't remember who said that they'd probably be weird (not their word but I can't remember the word they used) and try to figure out who chose each video. I don't think that's weird at all. I mean, really--it's kind of how the game is set up. That's why we can't hint at our songs...and I can't see a strategy that doesn't involve figuring out whose music is whose once the battle begins.

Also adding, I would have likely voted for Robyn on Day 1--her reaction to being suspected, especially towards LA, was harsh--in a cornered animal kind of way. Also, she didn't seem happy in the game--in the way that many in this wave of players seem to not like being mafia (also, what's up with that?) My not being that way was one of the ways she suspected me in Ted Lasso. And her refusal to answer any suspicion really sat wrong with me. No idea where her allegiance is (or was), but my gut says not civvie.

Hello, all!

Thanks again to Epi for having SVS (who knows how to get in touch with me outside of syndicate) let me know the game had started.

Finished reading.

A few thoughts:

I agree we should strategize for next day, and can't believe that no one thought of that before this evening (US Eastern). Especially with low conversation (and sorry for my part in that--I truly didn't know the game had started).

Also, I'm not sure why everyone is treating this like a normal mafia game in terms of how to think through suspicion and who to put up to the battle. It's not a normal set up, and I think it doesn't make sense to play it that way. But that's just me.

I had other thoughts, but I'm super tired, and 1. can't remember what I wanted to say and 2. I need to finish some work stuff and go to bed.

More in the morning.

Hey, y'all!! Sorry I missed the very beginning. I totally missed that it started--need to figure out why my notifications stopped working.

Thanks to Epi for sending a minion to let me know.

Going to catch up now!!!
