The Syndicate

I also kind of think Epi is Zola Malfeazium, and every faction needs her to be dead if they want to win.

Yeah, it's true. I'll do what I can.

I screwed up the chess game... using a board to track the moves because I'm not Sherlock Holmes, and I thought a move had been made that wasn't... now I'm going to lose some pieces because of it.

LC, I'm getting a little concerned. So much chess, so little digging. Can you provide some thoughts about the game?

I know, I know... chess is fast, Mafia takes my precious time.

I might need more of a case against nutella than "she called for more posting action". I'd still vote for Epi, him saying I can do so reeks of false bravado to me.

I think Luna is Civ. She sounds genuine to me, and I think Epi's "4 things" are contrived. Also, Luna's "maybe we can get info from my vote train" rang true to me. I know it's overdone and all, but [VOTE: Epignosis] aubergine.

How's it going with the read, Poison?

You sometimes read people on humor too? or was that a joke?

Be very careful how you answer this...

I agree with the observations on Epi, and Epi's Lunalee case is also convincing. I could see them being i/w.

Nah, it doesn't feel like a joke on this end, Ep. [VOTE: Epignosis] aubergine

I played one alias game with Michelle and I also believe she was in the Champs game with the representative from PerC, which I followed.

I would definitely recommend lynching Michelle at all costs.

Are you a rock? Which one?

Also doesn't look good how happy you are to lynch at random

I did not take Dizzy's request for your lynch seriously. Not sure it deserves any serious alignment-read.

It's only 4 pages to read...

I expect more help from a "fellow civillian".

It's literally all the help I can offer, as I haven't read them.

I skimmed through and I had hard times getting reads, so my question, was my civillian way of getting either a short summary or get other reactions out.
A bad guy here would take the most convienient answer to my question just to show activity.

Here, Rej acknowledges that his question could have been "bait."

The key here is thus:

Provide a short summary = Civilian
Give a convenient answer to show activity = Mafia

Forgive me Rej, but does that actually work? You indicate that it does:

Rej wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 6:46 pm So again a civillian, especially one who hasn't cought up himself is telling me to read it myself. I still think it was timmer's convenient way in bringing his own DP forward to look like civillian. I tend to never townread people like him and it's often correct.

I almost never do this, because usually I don't care, but maybe this time it's worth it:

Rej, can you cite other scenarios in which this specific variety of "bait" caught bad guys?

I am down with this. "I tend to never townread people like him and it's often correct." That's the part that is either provably correct or a crock of poop. Nitty-gritty this mofo. Pony up.

Epignosis wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 11:23 pm To be more precise, I'm looking for something in a somewhat similar vein of this exchange:

Rej: Can someone sum up things for me?
Andre 3000: Man, ain't but four pages. Get yo lazy ass on and read them things yo self.
Rej: Andre 3000 is not a civilian. Lynch him.

People lynch Andre 3000

Dead Andre 3000: Damn, damn, damn , damn (trumpet plays).

Civilians rejoice: "Hooray! Scholarships and candy for Rej! And a plate of yams with extra syrup!"

This post is ice cold. All right all right all right all right all right all right all right all right all right

I think we should all take a step back and stop, drop, and roll at this time because you guys are ON FIRE with these posts!!

Epignosis wrote: ↑Sat Jul 27, 2019 1:06 am The most useful thing to do at this point, I suppose, would be to ask what we would be doing if Rej was not on the poll.

This actually makes me feel a bit suspicious of you... it's like, an easy standard thing to say to earn your "Productive Civ" badge. I don't even think this is your usual MO. This sounds like a Sloonei/JJJ kind of thing. Not an Epi thing. You're bad. No one will believe that. Oh well, at least your wit is sharp. Maybe suspiciously sharp.

Well let's call a spade a spade and a shade a shade here. You said I was trying to divert attention elsewhere, I don't know a reason why a civilian would do that, so, you are accusing me of being bad.

I get that this isn't yet the hill you want to die on or anything, but that is what you did. I have no intention of distracting from the game with this chess, it's just a cool thing that I think could be fun.

TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2019 11:26 pmSo Long Con, haven’t seen you much yet this game. What are your thoughts thusfar?

Haven't read the last few pages yet. I saw Michelle tried to shade me for the chess, and Dom said he'd vote for me if it continued... those things are sketchy to me, chess isn't alignment-indicative. I don't really have a solid opinion on most people at this time.

Hello, just want you guys to know that I won't be around much this weekend. Food truck event all day Fri-Sat-Sun, I may pop in on my phone if it's not busy.

I totally liked it but said nothing because I wasn't sure if maybe you were just upstaging my haiku.
