The Syndicate

I'm voting now. I have a concert to go to, work to do, people to see, etc.

I'm voting BWT for his flip on Bullz.

I agree with this 100 percent.

I keep thinking "who would be likely to be recruited?" but that feels like a bad hornets nest to step into as well so I keep trying to push that thought out of my head as a reason to be suspicious of people.

Frustrating lack of anything to go on is frustrating.

Okay, here's the thing (are you ready to hear the thing? Cause here it is): The police can search someone every night to see if they are bad and kill them if they are, right? There have been no police kills lately, so I am going to assume they have been failing at this job. Who would the police likely search? Presumably the people they find suspicios in the thread, the same people they re voting to lynch. This leads me to conlcude that someone who has taken a lot of votes (like Bullz, for example) is almoost certainly innocent (until Tyler reads this and immediately recruits Bullz.)

For this reason, I am going to vote for someone who has taken NO suspicion, someone who the police would have no reason to check.

That person is Dom.

Have fun with that

Oooohh, Chicago! I like the city IRL and that sounds like a neat place to check out the fight club there! I think I had better wait to vote to see what happens with the fight? Or if I vote to move and then (God forbid) get seriously injured I would just stay here Host, yes?

Are you going to keep cock blocking me?

Um, defensive much? Am I the only one voting in this thread for who fights? Aren't a bunch of other people hyped up about a new city to move around in? Yes. Don't blame me solely for your not getting to fight last night, please and thank you. This is another example of your behavior in being overly eager I was talking about; this is my first time fighting. I'll gladly vote for someone who hasn't had the chance yet on this next night phase. I, like you, don't have an issue with taking turns and letting others fight.

No, my reason to move has nothing to do with you in fact. Perhaps I'll go back to New Castle where I started to see what the buzz is over there.

In fairness, you're also publicly and openly discouraging other players from allowing me to fight. So yeah, I'm a bit defensive when it comes to your tactics. Am I upset? Not really. I'm just confused why it is you've so aggressively singled me out.. I'm just trying to play the game. I get very bored just voting and waiting for 72 hours at a time.

And you were in the same thread Day One, when i think he was recruited. I don't think it is all that unreasonable. But nice No U there, kiddo

SVS, I would agree that this post from Lea seems forced. Her reaction to DH, given his alignment, doesn't ring true to me.

I felt a bit differently about this. Can you expand?

Not sure how to expand. The case on Vompatti I was referring to was laid out here, and that stood out the most to me among suspicions. Then at least three people made a point to say that they're not voting for Vompatti, that they're feeling his Civvieness or something. To see that many people sticking their neck out to defend him made me more uncomfortable to vote for him.

Dom, you felt differently about that situation, what is your angle on things?

I just thought that since the theory was that Vomps was Tyler and the theory is that DH was recruited early and Vomps didn't meet DH until late, the theory was dead. Not that Vomps was civvie.

One day you will learn. Rather than saying 'historically I've been wrong' perhaps you should say 'of all the times I suspected Bullz and hounded him relentlessly over the smallest things I was right exactly once and even that was only technically because I thought he was on the other baddie team'. You've literally never been right about me but each time we play together you do the exact same thing expecting to finally be right. Have you ever played Far Cry 3? Have I ever told you the definition of insanity?

To be fair, you aren't actually hounding me here but I just wanted to nip it in the bud because it gets tiring.

So because someone doesn't suspect me (shocking when you consider the bulletproof case against me, I know) they're automatically suspicious?

Bullz, I'm not hounding you because I'm not completely convinced you are bad-- but you are my biggest suspicion. I'm sorry you seem to be frustrated with this, but I'm not going to abstain from voting simply because I've been wrong before.
My suspicion of BWT has nothing really to do with YOU. It's his post. It's the fact that all of a sudden you're sounding sincere to him-- but you sound no different than before.

thellama73 wrote:Maybe it's the fact that I'm operating no 3 hours sleep, but the paranoid little voice inside me is starting to wonder whether Timmer is playing the greatest baddie game of all time.

This is certainly possible, and I've been trying to read timmer carefully because I've been nervous of how much I've been trusting him.

Someone had said they thought the lynch ended tonight? I did too.

That came off douchier than I intended; I apologize <3

I feel okay voting bulls. He is pinging me and I am voting based on who I am suspicious of. I do not feel guilty for it. I have, historically, been wrong about Bullz, but it's my biggest thing so far. However...

Bullz, this made me very suspicious of you as I caught up. I think it kind of speaks for itself.

I wondered when you'd chime in Dom! Look at the context. I was telling Kyle his logic of "he can just replace back in" is no excuse to lynch a civ.

Dom wrote: And here's another reason why you are just making me go CRAZY about you today, Bullz, you are defending yourself for the wrong reasons. Rather than saying you aren't bad for reason x, and thus this isn't true, you are saying, "Well, your argument doesn't make much sense for this specific instance." You also fail to realize that if unfurl is right (a big IF, tbh) then you would have BTSC with DH, and thus, you wouldn't have any argument here. Sorry, Bullz, but I'm not buying this.

While I'm flattered you're so crazy about me, I'll defend myself how I think is best. The arguments I've seen trying to connect me to DH don't make much sense because they take things out of context and make them seem like more than they were. That is my defense.

Dom wrote:Timmer, I have really enjoyed your analyses this game. Just curious, I don't remember sharing a thread with DH, so could you tell me when I did?

Weren't you in Wilmington on day two when half of Newcastle arrived there?

To be honest, Bullz, I don't know. :3 I haven't had a serious amount of time to REALLY dedicate to this game as of yet. I'm doing my best with what I have.

In addition my second point can be summed up as follows: I feel your statements are reading that people are wrong in their reasons, not their thoughts.


I am not sure when I'll be back. I'll likely have to go into both jobs for extended hours today, so I'm voting Bullz now.


Timmer, I enjoyed your case on Vompatti, and it does, indeed, seem unlikely that he's Tyler-- do you think he's a recruit?

A very busy week for Dom this week. :3 Working 60 hours PLUS seeing One Direction on Friday, PLUS seeing Finding Neverland on Saturday.


Also, can we please all agree that xenophobia is spelled as such?

haha, i can not help to notice Bullz name is among the people wanted to go to chicago,
as I voted for the previous period
and then people say they dont see a connection bewteen him and DH

Of course I voted to go to Chicago. It was an entirely new place and I assumed everyone would be drawn there. Go read my posts, I said on the last night in Wilmington I thought that since a lot of people would presumably vote for the new place that Chicago would be a good place for discussion and building theories. How was I to know where DH had voted? We were in separate threads. There's no connection between me and him just a few minor interactions given more importance than they deserve. I've already established that he didn't help me get my fight on day two in any way and nor have I defended him against any accusers while they were present in the same thread.

Alive people who only shared a fight club with DH day/night 4: Elohcin, FH/Canucklehead, Vompatti.

I personally won't vote for any of them today. Again, any of them could be RECRUITS. I just doubt any of them are TYLER.

@KEterman, absolutely, people need to follow their gut on these things.

Timmer, I have really enjoyed your analyses this game. Just curious, I don't remember sharing a thread with DH, so could you tell me when I did?
