The Syndicate

Looks like it is in my interest to vote for either BWT or MM. BWT seems blendy and not explaining his suspicions well, but I also didn't like MM's driveby vote with no explanation. Going with MM.

Wait, all of a sudden I'm the top suspect? Where is this coming from? I know BWT and Mongoose had some gut feelings against me, but I haven't seen any actual cases. Metalmarsh, you didn't explain your vote at all.

I don't think she's pretending to be cursed. Anyway, it's not like posting in haikus is a curse that completely impedes communication. It's not the kind of curse that would completely dissuade me from looking at and possibly voting for her. I am confident in her capability to respond and contribute in haiku form. So Mongoose, do you have more to say in response to MP's case? Because you're the closest I have to a suspect right now.

RIP Boogs.

Chronozon?!

RIP MP.

MP seems pretty convinced about Mongoose, and his case is definitely substantial enough to make me suspect her. Not sure how I feel about INH, he's kinda confusing me. *votes mongoose*

So in light of llama's response, it could as easily have been a failed kill due to a block, protect or curse of some sort. I'm still very eager to hear more from the low posters (MP, Eloh, Hedgie come to mind)

Yay no death! Interesting... could be inactive players, or blocks, or some occult power preventing the kills from going through. Llama -- would blocks/protects/stuff like that be written into the post at all?

Birdie, what would make you think I'm specifically that role?
I haven't intentionally said things "just to see where they go" like you said, I just post what I'm thinking. Honestly I've only remembered to check the thread about twice a day, and when I come in I see if anything sticks out to me, and reply to anything that does. I'm having a hard time nailing down suspicions because it is a small game and still early, not much has happened.

S~V~S wrote:Also, Yay one baddie down, Wow AP, you totally fooled me, I never thought someone bad would make that vote. And LA, yeah, that was my point. he does it like every game. It is just who he is, you implied that this behavior was suspicious. That was why i questioned it.

But I didn't imply that it was suspicious? I said I thought Dom/Boogs were civ-on-civ and I wanted to look elsewhere. I said I didn't trust Dom's radar and that I thought his "fixation" on Boogs was unproductive. Nowhere did I say I thought he was suspicious.

fkrkrkrjfkjfkff dammit I missed the goddamn vote I am an idiot

on the plus side, a baddie is dead! woohoo!


SVS, I have seen Dom play with that style in basically every game I've played with him. He just has this tone of replying to things and it always seems nitpicky and counterproductive to me. I suppose he could be right about Boogs but I'm not seeing it, and Boogs is reading genuine to me.

Dom: So, what do you think the day 0 poll was for? Llama indicated that nobody had info about which options would benefit them, so I found the "which direction" theory to be a plausible one, despite my not fully understanding what that would mean (someone said it was used in a recent game, so I figure it's a mechanic with rising popularity, so it seems likely). Do you have a different theory about the poll's effect(s)?

wait, so is the poll actually going to be extended until 6pm tomorrow?


I'm pretty confused but I have to agree with Boogs re: Dom. Dom always does this fixation thing, where he jumps on something insignificant and pursues it with a dog like a bone. I'm kinda unclear on why Boogs was suspicious in the first place, but if it's just Dom's radar, I don't trust it. I think this is likely civ-on-civ. Idk where to look for now though. I'm guessing those weird posts from MP were due to a curse or potion or something..?


linki: wow you guys are really getting off topic and going in pointless circles aren't you :/

^What o_O

here's my constellation it's called "zombies rise from the sea"

RIP Epi.

Have to vote now, don't really have any good ideas. Hedge's thing about voting for the top poster seems weird, not necessarily suspicious but it's all I can think of so I'm voting for her

I wonder, if divination had won out, could we have divined who the baddies are?

How do I choose? Alchemy is cool. Divination is cool. Natural magic sounds cool. Magic in general is pretty damn cool.
OK I'm going with divination

A quick cross-check of the roles descriptions and the poll options reveals that the following options seem to be aligned with civvie roles: Alchemy, Natural Magic, Hermetic Qabalah, Theosophy. The baddie team description includes a mention of Evocation. I see no direct mention of Divination or Cryptozoology, though surely Divination is related to the various uses of tarot.
