The Syndicate

Interesting fact: This is my first loss

Thanks Epi

I figured you wouldn't accept a big bribe, but you might accept a small one and then do whatever you wanted. And then I'd murder you.





Which didn't happen, and I still lost.

You were next on my list.

(And noted, for the future )

Sorry I was killed so early, Epi! Curse of N4 it seems. I was just getting a bit more free time when I was killed as well. I was gearing up for a massive bribe as well.

Always wanted an indy role and I got one at the worst possible time.

Nobody took my bribes, apart from Boogs. Boogs then voted who I asked him to, so I didn't even get to kill him. I suck.

My, my. Very eager.

YOUR rupees?

How is this a better reason than those given for voting sabie?

I was hoping to be more involved today but all my time is disappearing at the moment. Really sorry, work is on top of me right now. I will sort myself out and fully involve myself the next few days.

For today, I'll vote sabie. I also see Snowy and MM as possible mafia. I can't really give them any criticisms to respond to, it's mostly gut.

As for sabie, I don't believe she's been all that genuine. Like the other two, there's just something about her posts that doesn't sit well with me. Plus, she has 8 votes. Might as well make it more of a sure thing so there's no suspicious swing.

Got to continue my paperwork now.

Linki - those posts make me even more comfortable with my vote.

Sorry, I haven't been attending to this game as much as I'd like. Why does the OP say you've caused three civs to be lynched?

Russtifinko wrote:I'll be more exact now: I think votes are coming in because there are cases, and not because they're good ones, and fingersplints is the one putting them there. As MR, myself, and others have noted, the fact that she has caused 3 civs in a row to be lynched hasn't made her hesitant in the slightest to go after more, and she's not getting nearly the scrutiny over it that she should be. I'm voting her today, and I help the rest of you will look at the record, make up your minds on this case's merits, and join me.

I agree with this. I voted for a string of civs in DW (before my recruitment) and my confidence was knocked a hell of a lot. While I applaud her trying to help and find baddies, I wonder whether there is more to it. I'd question myself a lot if I was her and she is civ.

Russtifinko wrote:At work and can't make cases now, but I now think we should be looking at someone who did send in a puzzle, maybe someone who's been very helpful this game. I think MM is a good place to start. And PLEASE do not lynch sabie, I think it'll turn out badly

1. This was the sort of bullshit Boogs came out with. I don't think you're talking about me but I'm going to have to stop trying to raise Ganon's funds if every day the ones who try come under suspicion. I won't be the only one either.
2. Why not lynch sabie? What will it turn out badly?

sabie12 wrote:After all of this discussion, I'm starting to see how splints could be bad. If she wanted to frame Russ or Made for SVS she could because they are the ones SVS was suspicious of. She was a part of the hedge civ lynch and also has voted for and is going after Russ and posting about Russ. Then all of the sudden now she agrees with llama and votes me without much of a case against me. I don't know what I did other than be busy and not post as much. I haven't been a part of the most recent civ lynches.

This seemed like a convenient time to think splints is bad.

Monopoly has just started :P Speaking of which...

If you're trying to give some coded message about me being bad, you're very mistaken Made.

I'm confused as to why you've said this :P

ALSO, Made and Snowy and Dom and MM and sabie and splints and Bass were bad in Who, so y'know thats relevant

And use different numbers. Not the same ones switched around.

Going to assume this is what Epi was talking about, i didn't see any that just switched numbers around, but i really only glanced

Also, Zeek AND Gotrees were bad in doctor who last game so

I was only bad for half the game and I'm not at all again this game Is Gotrees playing?

Here's mine.

It is, but I found it quite easy to do once Made showed us how its done. I can't imagine many people will have exactly the same solutions.

Really well done Made! I don't think I've ever seen a kakuro before. Well done on cracking this. While it does help the Hyrule, overall this benefits us way more as long as civs get in unique versions.

I don't get it. I've plotted the graph and it's the right way... but 10 is not on my grid

I think so, Snowy.

RIP Boogs

I'll have some time off tomorrow to go over the thread a bit more closely and give some more thoughts.

Not sure on this labyrinth. Think we're supposed to figure out where 0 is from these numbers to get our starting point?

I have to get an early night, so I'm going to vote now... and it's going to be for MM. This is not a NO U because he's voted for me, but his vote is part of the reason I'm voting that way. Generally his posts have been somewhat pingy, but there's no substantial suspicion. It's gut I suppose.

After Hedgeowl's lynch, he doesn't seem to have learnt from lynching someone purely because they're not all that involved. I appreciate he said he was voting for me for now, but his criticisms of my quieter game were already addressed. I've just moved stores and have a big job on my hands, 12 hour days and such.

I won't deny I'm a bit cranky and that may have something to do with it, but I have to go to bed and I'm not completely feeling a Boogs vote right now. Though I think his point of the money game players is ridiculous. I

Or they'd completely avoid a scenario were Ganon could figure out they're alignment. You can't play the game and then say anyone who played is suspicious.

Boogs, care to address your hypocrisy over money game players?

Thoughts on the Indy character? No kills from him yet. What are his likely powers? I presume the Mafia may have Triforce related powers?

Made wrote:Based on this, I think it would be in our best intrest to not kill Zeek tonight.

Likewise i think persuing Sabie, LLama, and MM would also be a mistake.

While yes, they are our top suspects (based on vote received/general night time consistence) anyways, But Mafia needs the piece of power to win the game, without it, they can't win the game.

I refuse to vote any of the above people unless
1. Someone makes a obvious baddie slip/accidentally outs
2. 5 people say that the above strategy is straight up stupid.

I'm a top suspect because people think I've been more quiet than usual? Nobody knows who got the triforce of power. Players under suspicion or under the radar are just as likely to have it. This is a strange thing to say.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:zeek is quiet. I was looking forward to hearing from him.

I'm placing my vote there for now.

I'll quit my job then Is there anything you would like me to address?

Boogs wrote:Alright so I dont understand some suspicion on me for being helpful? I m playing the game and trying to win rupees for our team to give to Ganon. I would be more low key and not suggest the rupee idea if i wanted the money for myself. And also, we didnt have many voters on that event, so the voters should be looked at today because the odds are at least one was Maia trying to earn money if not more and the participants need to help us out or we cant be upgraded to be protected by Ganon.

I can't get my head around this post. By voters do you mean betters? And if you do i still don't understand.
On the one hand you are saying let's bet on the money game and now you are saying let's eye those people that betted.

Help me out here!

Boogs, so because I helped win rupees I should be looked at? You played the game! Just like my vote yesterday, which I only made to keep up my obligations to the rest of the players, I will continue to try and generate money for the civ cause. These aren't opportunities we can easily pass up when we're already three civs down, we NEED upgrades. This pings the hell out of me.

I think we're lynching civs for not much. It's early of course and there will be more to work with in the future, but I'm going on gut tomorrow. Thinking Made had slipped up got me nowhere so I'll reread and see who pings me.

MovingPictures07 wrote:Actually, I've thought about this a bit more, and I'm not sure I'm getting the passionate, genuine civvie vibes from zeek this game. His playstyle seems absolutely different, and I don't like how he essentially "randomized" on Day 2.

I'm not sure how to address this really. I'm a big Doctor Who geek and I've never played Zelda. That's why I don't seem as passionate.

As for my vote, AGAIN, I had five minutes. We've all had those times I'm sure. What would you have preferred? A self vote? Jumping on the Hedgeowl express all the way to lynching another civ? I did the only fair thing I could without knowing what had happened.

Honestly, these suspicions seem contrived to me.

If my suspicion of Made on D1 was so suspicious why are you waiting until now to say something?

As for my vote, I had 5 mins to pick someone. Given people have said already self votes are suspect I thought it best to just vote randomly. Guess I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't.

thellama73 wrote:Zeek was the first one to notice Made's lack of understanding the rules.

Also llama, MM noticed Made's misunderstanding first I believe. Unless you know MM isn't civ? :P

I wasn't the only one to notice Made's misreading of the rules, but I do have a special reason to read them: I do know anything about Zelda. Never played any of the games so I made sure I read everything twice so I'd have a better chance of knowing whats going on. I wasn't double bluffing about never having been mafia and I'm not mafia now

Hey!!!

Just had to say this interaction was one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen.

I also think it's one baddie voting a teammate.

It's not. I just chose someone with no votes who was in Doctor Who. Let's not have another contrived suspicion get a civ lynched.

Picking different ones will probably limit any loss in rupee, if we can lose Ganon rupees in this game

RIP Hedge.

I've just finished work and have no time to catch up. Ran late today so I'm voting Snow Dog for absolutely no reason. Other than I want to get Ganon the rupees for voting.

I'm really sorry and I'll try not to let this happen again.

Snow Dog wrote:I have never played with Made apart from the current Who game. I have no idea how he behaves and he seemed damned suspicious to me. More than anyone else. I had nothing else to go on and it was that or randomise. And I know people hate that.

Exactly, it was D1, there's not really much of a good reason to vote anyone.

No death I wish I'd been up for the riddle conversation cause I didn't get them all, sorry Ganon

MovingPictures07 wrote:I also don't appreciate Made 1.0 calling me out as possibly bad just because I'm not posting as much as I'm sometimes infamous for doing. That's a ridiculous reason to call me out as a possible way to look for D2.

I meant this :P

So MP is always like this, is he?

I like, "It's better to light a candle than curse the dark."

Your riddles are rather good, Epi. Kudos.

Seen as it's quiet, would anyone like to share their favourite proverb?

I'm voting Made, it's pretty suspicious he's replacing in...

WB

Sorry, I didn't have anyone more suspect to vote for after that rupee/item post RIP

That seemed genuine... but who do I vote for??

I don't have anything else to base my vote on

So if he trusts you, he votes for you, but he's never helped lynch a baddie?

Might want to change you vote, Made

Well, I don't know whether you misread the rules or not, but lets be honest here - theres nothing else to go on.

Voting Made.

Epignosis wrote:Items
These are items the members of Hyrule can purchase, and are permanent upgrades except where indicated. The Hyrulians cannot pool their rupees.

MADE

I will not be voting with Made then...

She doesn't like snow, so shhh :P

I've never randomised before but in every game I've played something has usually struck me by now. I may just ask my girlfriend to pick the name she likes the least.

No idea who I'll vote for. Only thing thats really seemed likely odd was Made's declaration of trust, but even that might mean nothing.
