The Syndicate

Next Epi or Simon game I am voting to lynch Elo day 1

Also russ I had to vote myself, when you got all mad and called my vote unacceptable that really made me laugh. I tried to play up how bad I felt about it because I felt bad about missing my forced vote the day before

I hate this rule lol

Good game hosts! And congrats winners. Most of you were obvious though

I don't want to miss the vote, and I still feel better about a Lorab lynch, so I am voting there

I wish you had waited to vote Russ! I don't want to spread the vote too much, but I am not sure I feel strongest about llama. I'm not sold there. However I do find you to be my most trusted now that FZ is gone (and not including Made who I still think is most likely a bird but paranoid about that)

I feel much more strongly that Lorab is bad. She has been waffling on her suspicions, and it feels a lot like she is agreeing with people and jumping on their suspicions. (I was once her number one suspect, but what happened to that? Seems like she abandoned that once the more vocal civvies - MP and FZ - did not take the bait)

Also, I don't do well thought out, llama

I think that making that assumption is dangerous, and ignores the Golden Eggs that we know are in play.

I think it is more dangerous to continue suspecting him when there is reason to believe he might be a specific civvie role. I'd rather lynch players who don't have a high probability of being a civvie, especially when as you have pointed out, we aren't in a great situation and need to get the next lynch right. He is not confirmed to me, but I also doubt I will vote him tomorrow.

Civs don't have a lynch stop, but there is a role that survives the first lynch attempt.

His surviving gives me pause. However, I'm not entirely convinced. He was on the site last night, and I can't see a reason that someone would be on here and not post, when they saw their name was being mentioned. Especially a civ. Even if they knew they would survive, someone who has a lot of suspicion is likely to at least post some sort of defense/alternative. A baddie might just leave it to their teammates to do for them. If not the civ role, then perhaps he had a golden egg?

linkitis: @Made: Do you want to offer any sort of defense to anything that's been said about you?

I don't agree with this at all. I think that a player who knows they are going to survive often doesn't try hard. There is no need.... Especially in a situation like this where survival points to a civvie role.

I actually think it makes more sense for a mafia member to try because they have teammates they are letting down by not even trying, whereas a civvie would feel all alone and not care as much.

It could automatically save him. By how it's worded it would fit

fingers, this is why we are losing this game. I know I shouldn't be throwing stones, seeing as I just missed the vote, but this is unacceptable. If you think people are suspicious, VOTE THEM. Voting yourself not only doesn't help us get a baddie today, it gives us no information whatsoever no matter the lynch result.

Yes, I normally hate self voting, but I too thought I had more time and couldn't decide in the amount of time left. Seemed like the best option at the time. sorry

I think both Elo and Made are suspicious and I can't decide between the two, so I'm going to just vote myself instead.

I can see that. I could also see DF being Elo's teammate.

I'm not sure I am sold on your llama being bad theory though FZ. He is a really tough one for me to read. I used to think he was slightly more jokey when bad, but then he was jokey and a lynched as a civvie several times so I'm really not sure anymore. I have seen him buddy up to players who think he is a civvie when bad, and he isn't doing that. So for now I'm leaning civvie there

damn sorry for missing another vote I really have to vote early since I can't be trusted not to fall asleep and miss it. I would have voted lipsticklacey. I'm undecided if I think that Lorab's defence of her is genuine or not, but her and Elo are definitely my top suspects going into tomorrow.

FZ the Broadway game dfaraday was bad, and he voted early frequently. Voted early for his teammates too. I also do not have any red flags from him this game, but him voting early isn't a civvie point for me

FZ. wrote: I'm sorry if it came off as you not being helpful. That was not my intention. I sometimes worry when people are being helpful in a way that is not really stating opinions or asking questions. Boo evokes those feelings in me as well, which is why I can't bring myself to fully trust him. There's all this talk about the game mechanics which contributes a lot in terms of what's going on, but it is often unrelated to specific players. Not sure I'm explaining this properly.


linki: I don't think we should lynch MP either

I think you are explaining it fine. It's an easy way for mafia to look like they are contributing. It just seems standard for boo, so not sure it really makes him suspicious.

DFaraday wrote:I feel like some of the suspicions of Splints are disingenuous. Her 3 posts don't strike me as suspicious enough to sway nearly the entire thread into believing she's bad, so I'm guessing one or two of the people saying they feel baddie for her are just going with the flow.

Unsurprisingly I agree completely. I have been quieter, but I did just agree to jump in and host a game now, so shouldn't be that shocking that I am quieter. (Plus I'm already busier, and why I only agreed to sign up since the hosts needed one more)

I think that the two ladies who voiced suspicion on me first sounded pretty genuine, but I'm not sure about the others.

I don't see how I am "jumping on a bandwagon" by agreeing with someone. I disagree that MM is an easy target. He has been surviving longer lately for that reason, and just lasted til the end in the last game I play. (or at least longer then I did)
I find both nijuu and FZ hypocritical. nijuu "jumped on the bandwagon of me" (since she says me agreeing with one persons suspicion as jumping on the bandwagon, then her agreeing with one persons suspicion of me is the same). FZ's argument that I was taking a noncommittal stance could be used to apply every suspicion that doesn't have a vote cast with it. How was I even noncommittal? I think I took a pretty clear stance on the issue.
Anyways I am voting for MM. Not because "weird" behaviour, but because I think he is acting suspicious.

I also didn't like how MM was quick to jump on the Russ vote. I agree with Ice Bear that that is more suspicious.

Voting Lorab because it's been ages since I played with her and I missed her
