The Syndicate

I kinda feel like Gleam may have been trying to start what would seem like an easy bandwagon on Vomp by calling attention to what is a fairly common behaviour for him and making it seem odd (when Vomp seemingly always acts the same way). It's not a huge thing but it's all I've really got so I'll be *Voting Gleam*

If you think we have enough of a chance to get the baddies before we get to that point, then okay. Although the more I think about it, it also means we will have had a greater chance of acquiring more coins by then too. So maybe there is some logic in putting it off.

Personally, I would prefer to get it over with (simply because I'm a bit more risk-averse when it comes to mafia), but I am willing to go along with whatever the group decides.

I can see the argument for both, and each make as much sense. We go now, baddies might be able to get a free lynch and take out a valuable player, or they might not be able to afford for all (or more than one) of them to be water roles. We go later, baddies might have been thinned out, the effect they can have will be less, or they will all still be alive, have enough cash, and dominate the lynch that day. This is a problem I often have in mafia, I find it too easy to see both sides of a debate. If people really want to definitely go to water world now or later I'm up for whichever people think is our best option personally.

it is a powerful ability for a baddie tbs they kill at night AND have a chance at controlling lynches.

I totes do not understand how pointing out the obv makes me suspicious? so explain it to me. Especially you MP you really need to explain it to me. b/c you flip flopped in your own posts.

I can't claim to speak for Hedge or MP but to be honest I also thought it was strange when you were calling attention to those voters, because at the time you didn't go into the whole baddie roles thing and I didn't actually understand what was going on with the baddies. It sort of looked like you were trying to throw suspicion onto a group of people for no specific reason. Even then I didn't think it was something that I'd definitely vote for you because of, more something to keep in mind for later on. I think some of the suspicion on you comes from the fact that first you just implied it was weird people would be voting for water without elaborating on why. When you did so your concern became easier to understand, at least in my opinion.

Is there something wrong with Water? I didn't really know what to choose, so I went with my astrological sign - plus, I like water....

i didnt know what to choose either so inread the roles and noticed sev eral baddies votes will count as 4 if we are in a water area/land. so hence my wondering about water voters.

Oh!!!!!!!!! I hadn't even noticed that LOL! I need to go read through all the roles again and get a spreadsheet going....

Yeah, good catch. i am not immensely familiar with this game, and was not sure what "roles" listed were actual "roles" or what have you. At first I thought there were like 30 someodd roles. But agreed, a deeper read of them would be a good thing at this point.

Also, I think the Kings are civs, right? So Even if baddies might benefit from that choice, mightn't the Water King also vote for it? I am thinking I would not want to vote for a water voter JUST because they voted "Water", but it is something to take into account if there are other factors.

If the Kings are NOT civs, then just ignore me, lol. But they are, aren't they?

I would guess that the Kings are civs because if they aren't then that means there's like 4 real civs.

Do we know what's even going on with the baddie roles? There seem to be far too many, and most have a price by them.

I'm looking at the roles right now, and these are my thoughts:

It seems as though the baddie team consists of Bowser and three baddie minions, who have the ability to buy their role with the coins they have. Since this is only the first day and no one really would have any money at this point, the three baddies chose the Goomba role, hence why Rob would post that the baddies today are Bowser and three Goombas. I'll bet when we see the game move on, we will see those roles change.

I'm also guessing that if the host uses this format for each day post, we'll be able to find out soon enough if a baddie is killed in a lynch or night kill turn.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up! Good point as well that we'll know if baddies are killed at night by the number of pictures shown. If Epi continues to show them that is, maybe for whatever reason later on he'll decide to keep them secret or something.

Well, we've got a day. Something will probably come up.

Yay new game! I'm going to vote for Ice because right now it's boiling hot and I can't stand summer so a nice wintery place would be lovely.
