The Syndicate

RL busyness has interfered with me being able to look into many things, at least today. The evil eye (I see it more as a stink eye, tbh) I gave Dom was about his curious reaction to BWT's resurrection. Kinda like Llama felt, too. It felt very open to interpretation. Now I'm getting heat for doing th...

Oh, wait, we have a poll after all.

Since D0/N0 polls were changeable (actually, I don't know if N0 was), I assumed there would not be a strict rule of stating a clear vote, once - especially since it's all verbal, the development of the debate might often cause people to make statements about what they intend to vote, but not mean it...

Since we're on our own tracking votes, should we make a rule about being clear in our posts what our final vote will be?

Actually, I'm still trying to figure out what Russ is really endorsing. The fear of what your teammates on a certain day might become (and what might think of you) the next day, if you get shuffled away from them, is pretty general for this game. I assume we won't know if shuffling was partial or co...

Reexamining the situation after Vomps' lynch. Nothing sure, yet.

Now I could see an error in BWT not being on the poll, because the ressurection happened after Day 4 started and the poll was made, so maybe Mongoose didn't edit it.

Ture.

Oh wait, you said other people imply. My bad.

And how would you get that interpretation from my question? Because you said "BWT must have come back", not brought back or something else. If that's not what you mean, then I guess I didn't understand your sentence at all. And just to be clear, do you need more clarification on my reacti...

I've answered that earlier.

And wait, are you saying BWT rezzed himself? How?

Awesome, BWT! Very phoenix-like, already. The odd night baddies are having a nightmare of a game, so far. hmmmm :evileye: why the evil eye? Your reaction stood out from the rest made me curious, that's all. Why did you "hmm" at BWT's rezz? Are you not happy with it? I can't answer for Dom...

I also don't know what sense to make of what Russ said. Players shifting from civ to bad would support their new cause, regardless of the shift, right? Win conditions haven't exactly been completely layed out (for instance, if a bad team also needs to eliminate the other to win), but a player's surv...

Why? I was merely rejoicing. That team is factually on a two-night fail streak.

Just a general heads up: Busy day(s) ahead (errands, test preparations, usual study), may affect even my usual afternoon or evening lurking hours.

Before you know it, your suspicion will be moot.

Might take four days for that, again.

How are you enjoying being bad in a game?
Didn't get the chance, so far.
Oh, he's a sly one. Nice try, Epi, he almost fell into your trap.

I don't recall falling in any trap before.

Oh, and one last movie thought before calling it a night: Inherent Vice is probably PTA's dullest movie to date.

Until I saw Birdman , I was bored by all the awards' best actor nominations, because Timothy Spall wasn't in any of them. Now I'd like Keaton to take it. His role is so meta and sort of redemptorial. I still fear Redmayne might snatch it for his (otherwise laudable) metamorphosis into Hawking, but ...

So it appears we have 16 votes already! That means only one player hasn't voted yet, and I think that player is Ninja Blooper. Other than that, I think only one player voted but hasn't posted yet: TySlayer. Hopefully the Host can start D1 soon then! From what I've noticed so far, Blooper usually co...

I don't feel like lunching on people just yet, but good thing we have a marmot and a llama.

Aaaaaaaaand back! Sooooo... uhm... sup? *votes Marshy* :mafia: Hiya Lizzy. Uhm... we lynched Vompatti. :Uhh: Note: SVS, Canuck, and LC have each refused to explain why they either didn't vote or post the last two days when they were asked. Do you think all people who are night targeted should annou...

I have survived two days once without drinking Pepsi, so I'm good to go.

Yes, time to re-assess what's going on here. Is Llama a baddie, leading us on a three-day wild goose chase on Vompatti? Or are the baddies just all sitting back and keeping relatively quiet, safe in the knowledge that no one has yet accused them? If we strip back to Day 1.2, ahead of Voopy's drawin...

I think "in your wagon train" means any player.

I'm not sure. Every other protecting, blocking role is phrased as "any player" except this one.

Oh, and George Donner can only protect someone from his BTSC group, right?

Myes, but in that case, wouldn't Wasatch's identity be compromised*? i.e. we vote to lynch player X, GLS/Fr are announced as lynched instead, so we'll realize player X was Wasatch and then just proceed to wipe out the whole Forces in two-three days, max. *unless the roles will be reshuffled immediat...

I didn't notice anyone who might have been targeted. Is that the equivalent of insanification, in this game?

I can see SVS as having been the subject of a power, if not actually two concomitantly, but neither are confirmable. It is interesting to me that SVS, Vompatti, sabie, lizzy, TH, and Spacedaisy didn't vote. Vompatti probably gave up or was blocked from voting (see below). I don't know what to make o...

I don't know what is more headache-inducing already, the bendy rules or Epig's WoF interpretation of the poll. My only dillemma is regarding the Forces' deaths. Wasatch cannot be lunched/killed before the other two Forces do, but the other Forces die, in a certain order, after Wasatch does. Is there...

Sorry, Vomps.

But damn you, too!

So... what now?

I only liked Rush and Apollo 13 from what I've seen.

Past 2am here and dead tired. Will stick to voting for Vompatti, because of nothing in my discontent with his gaming having changed, along with what potential save votes for him and the NK might signify (but which will be more determined by the outcome of his alignment). It seems I caught a bit of f...

I just realized that MP (essentially) rezzed BWT for the second game in a row. Cars before this one. Major bromance forming there for sure. :srsnod: They let it transpire from real life too much. :srsnod: I remember them on PA often sharing the same pov's, taste in music and such, but when you'd br...

Of the seven votes remaining, half were inactive players (out of which the only thing Lizzy did so far in this game was to actually defend you) and the other half had offered no real feedback on you or were not inclined to vote you. The momentum of voting you was pretty dead and gone. Llama's initi...

You didn't seem invested in voting a baddie rather than voting a civ yesterday, though.

We could solve that fast with a vote for Canuck in the Directors' game.

Long Con wrote:I'll play as long as you call them 'lunches' instead of 'lynches', as per Rico's comment in the Director's game.

This gets my full approval.

Perhaps an appropriate smiley, too.

There's not much real feedback on MP from those who didn't vote, either. One or two would have probably not have voted MP, judging from their posts.

I don't think I see the hinting part in Vompatti's vote. For me, Vompatti's own behaviour weighs more right now. First two day votes, he acts in a self-described zany way, throwing votes around. Then on Day 2 he suddenly acts serious and bandwagons (in, as I've already mentioned, an irrational way a...

Anyway, is is slow today because of the Super Bowl? I'll be slightly busier tomorrow than today, but I should manage to pop in occasionally.

Huh, interesting! Shall we assume a certain "persona" has something to do with her not being part of the poll today?

What is WIFOM-ing? Canuck, I get it you won't reveal if you were silenced or not (you said you have a special theory on what effects that has - could you kindly elaborate?), but I wonder if you could tell me why you voted MP. Your early vote, the first for him, is also the only unaccounted one righ...

Ugh, this might be the death of me in this game, but I screwed up again female player's gender, this time FZ. I don't know why I keep doing this...

RIP FZ. :( I can see how this would be a kill done because of him being part of the Vompatti voters, but I don't know how much we can speculate, from this kill, on whom he might be teamed with. On one hand we can only go back and analyze the MP lynch / possible Vomp save, on the other hand he could ...

In reply to BWT's post : I find your read on what happened interesting, but I can't figure out where you draw the line between me making rookie mistakes and slipping as a baddie. I also don't see how all the issues are connected, the way you put it. You say you agree SVS was quite "reaction-y&...

Also, literally the first thing that was on TV when I opened it this morning was The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle.
