The Syndicate

I don't understand why someone said that my vote on Dom is 'suspicious'. Here's a sampling of the votes that were cast that day. Clearly there was not much consensus on who was guilty that day, because of the spread-out-ness of all the votes. I may be guilty of a lack of conviction on who is bad in ...

As I recall, a number of people randomized that last vote. I don't think my vote for Dom was lamer than a randomization. It was practically a randomization, I just picked a player to vote for because not voting is big trouble around here. I didn't particularly suspect Dom any more or less than most ...

First, "trying to shut me up" is a euphemism for trying to kill me. Killing me is the only way you'll shut me up. :feb: And your backpedaling doesn't hold up too well either. In the fight votes before lynches started, the votes were spread out and low because a) people wanted to fight, and...

I'm voting for Long Con because I think his vote for Dom after me seems opportunistic, and his explanation didn't satisfy me one bit. Why would you place a second vote on someone, knowing that n this game, the vote is spread out and two votes is sometimes enough to get someone killed, over a grudge...

What I don't understand is why people were following my (basically random) vote for Dom. Given the fact that he flipped unrecruited civ, I think it looks bad. Furthermore, no one even gave a reason for following me. I should vote now, could be my last chance. Not too sure about who's guilty here, s...

And I'd like to add, that if the part about posting mattering is right, that's a great way to reward players for participation. I love the idea.

Ok, here is Long Con's Grand Unified Theory Of How Fighting Works. From what I've read, a lot of people know some things about fighting, so I thought over what I know about it, and here's my theory. There are several elements that seem to affect fights. I hope I'm allowed to talk about them all, but...

It's probably safest to just work under the assumption that the baddies share BTSC. They must have some form of unity... If it's blind then lynches don't tell us as much I guess.

I think it's worth going over each fight to see if the person who posted more that night always won. I believe that it's likely that I posted less than Llama the night I fought him and lost.

So, BWT, what is the theory? Is it that participation in the thread is analogous to fighting when you're in the ring? Or is it that unfurl is bad?

Llama was just saying what you were saying, Jules!

Looks like it's MR and Keterman tonight!

The vote you can have, my friend... As soon as another contender arrives and asks.

Who wants to fight? I might even owe some folks a vote for voting for me, so speak up! Say "i want Long Con's vote!" And it shall be yours.

Sorsha, I'll look back at your question when I get home tonight from the fair... I could try fighting again if no one else wants to, though I'm a bit scared considering that I have already been seriously injured once.

Ok, so after BWT and Dom had two votes each, Llama received three later votes to put him in the lead. Boogs was voter 21, voting directly after the 20th vote which was Llamas third. Long story short, Boogs may have intentionally saved Llama's life. Could be cops together, could be Project Mayhem tog...

Wow, that was some seriously spread voting! Sorry Dom, I didn't think putting a second vote on you would lead to your untimely demise! That's what comes of such unsure Civvies, I guess. Boogs was the third vote that put Dom into the tied position, so that could mean something. I want to look at the ...

I should vote now, could be my last chance. Not too sure about who's guilty here, so I vote Dom, because I think I owe him one.

Was I rezzed yet? Many people will die in this game, and their names will drift away on the breeze. Your death was important, DH. Your death gave this game something it very much needed - some focus. I think I speak for us all, when I applaud you for making the ultimate sacrifice to make this game ...

Would you mind if I voted for you for this sneaky comment?

Hey, posting here from the Fenelon Falls fairgrounds, just taking advantage of a slow time to check in... They have free Wi-Fi here, so that's cool. Maybe we should start tracking Tylers here... Like, pick a person to call Tyler, and then track where they went. If it doesn't include a DH connection,...

Oh God I almost forgot :( I am not seeing the cases here other than as related to proximity. I am voting Lea again as not only was she in the right place at the right time, but that whole exchange she had with DH felt off to me, and now she I's apparently using it to clear her from association with...

Anyways, ten minutes left to vote... I was diggin' on the case against Vomps until several people practically vouched for him, so I'm not going to thrust him back into the tie-spotlight so soon. I felt a bit differently about this. Can you expand? Not sure how to expand. The case on Vompatti I was ...

I trust Long Con to not cheat if he's going to help BR vote. However, it's prob not a good thing to do... what if lc logs on and sees that br has four waiting msgs or something. .. it might get his brain turning even if he wouldn't read them. Again, I trust lc and br, but next time man, you might n...

Hate to see you get bored Elohcin. I'll vote for you to fight too!

Holy bandwagon in a sort of last hour! Also, BR is still asleep (we were up late last night), so I'm just going to get her vote from her and do it. I don't want to see her die. She can post later when she gets up. Is allowed that people can vote for others?, sorry, if I sound too serious but that f...

I got seriously injured last time. Not sure I want to fight again.

Never mind, must have been a Host mistake... and I saw it!

Blooper was a regular Civ. Unrecruited, though. Not as bad, but still... not good.

Blooper was an honest cop. RIP, and thanks for your service, nijuukyugou.

I'd say that five people missed the vote... lemme go see who.

BWT
Elohcin
Leamiteo
Mister Rearranger
Spacedaisy

Yikes guys... yikes.

Hi Juliets, I have been quiet this game because a) I've been a busy guy lately, not to mention I was just away at the cottage for the long weekend, and b) until recently, the game was very unmafialike and I was doing more listening than speaking, because I didn't really know what to say. I said &quo...

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. Is that just a random feeling, or do you have a case on him? This is Day 6, but it still feels so early with where s...

It definitely behooves the cops to check their own ranks as soon as possible. Perhaps the host has safeguards against a domino effect like that, but better safe than sorry.

And I wasn't lurking, I was catching up after being gone all weekend.

I didn't vote to go to Chicago. I had already decided to stay in Wilmington after missing the vote to leave... I found that staying in the same thread would minimize of back-reading I would have to do, which appealed to me in a time that it seemed everyone was just talking about fighting without und...

I followed along with DH and company in the first move because it was comprised mostly of my Rev friends, and it was cool to hang with them. I actually intended to go with them again, but I missed the vote in Wilmington. Then I liked how easy it was to stay in a place, because there's not so much ca...

Hello new game! Goodbye DH, you scum!

Forget what I said earlier, I had an error in the decoding that makes what I said a non-issue.

llama, is there any reason we shouldn't share the coded message in the thread? It really seems to me that it will only benefit the Civvies, could the baddies take advantage of it? I guess if someone gets it and wins, and THEN turns bad, it would be bad... but we ourselves could become recruitment t...

Marla, you damn tourist!! llama, is there any reason we shouldn't share the coded message in the thread?

Got it here too... except one word that I am not sure about.

Good one, Dom.

I am Jack's clever smugness.

I wonder if Marla can go into any town she likes, or if she is only in one at a time? I am Jack's inquisitive nature.

I think I'll stay here in Wilmington. I like it here.

I am Jack's flowing adrenalin!

Ooops, forgot to fix the quote.

DharmaHelper has been taking what I would describe as a 'leadership role' in the game thus far. I was with him for the first two days, and I actually intended to go with him but failed to vote today. Doesn't really matter to me much where I am, I might just stay here again so I don't have to catch ...
