The Syndicate

No, but I'm going to do that right now. Thanks!

Not my initial impression.

And btw my friend is out training for her driver´s license, so I have a few hours here to discuss stuff. Bring it on guys!

Hi everyone.

Im sorry about not posting more. Im housing a friend who can´t be at home because of private reasons and it is impacting how much I can read and post. She has highest priority rigfht now, but she will be returning on Friday so until then I won´t be playing much. Did go on yesterday and read from page 19-23 but didn´t have time to post. Okay, well here are some thoughts and reads that I have gathered:

I'm opposed to lynching low posters just for the sake of it. It´s strange that Lovedelic has not posted at all, but I wouldn´t waste a lynch on him in case he is going to get modkilled anyway. I don´t know these hosts, but the opportunity is still there. We should hunt for the mafia or inmates instead right now.

Im lacking scum reads on people right now. I don´t like how Metalmarsh instantly voted for Zebra, especially when we had a whole day ahead of us. Im still reading Zebra as slightly scummy, but Metals behavior still strikes me as odd. Elaborate on that please.

Glorfy was also really polite last time we played. He was civ there. I don´t read him as mafia, but maybe independent this game. Not a primary lynch target right now.

Im finding Juliets and Bea really hard to read. They are both very floaty and not posting that much(maybe because of private reasons) but I will be keeping an eye on them for a while. Especially Juliets. I know I have also been somewhat floaty and not contributing that much, but I just didn´t feel like entering the arguments that some of you guys have had(Matt/Zebra, Golden/Enrique and so forth). Big walls of text about things that are kind of trivial are not appealing at all, sorry. Good discussions to have Im sure, but not something I would like to get involved in.

I wish Bullzeye, Bubbles and Floyd would post more. Im interested in hearing some thoughts from them.

How much time until EoD? I honestly don´t know who to vote for yet, as I don´t have clear scum reads on anyone.

Nah Im not haha. Theres still lots of time until first lynch.

Probably won´t be a mislynch though.

The inmates are gone. That alone deems it safe for me. Any interpretation is valid at this point, but thats just what I believe.

Im not going to discuss it further Enrique, no worries

I think we have different mindsets on this matter. For you, the goal is to visit the least anti-town location, while I want to visit the most pro-town location.

I just can´t understand why you fear foul play and prefer irrelevance, when you could instead go for something thats barely high-risk and probably high-reward.

That place is Arkham.

I don´t see why Arkham would be dangerous. The inmates are gone, and the "crime scene" is still fresh.

I don´t like that you voted docks. Why not put more thought into what could possibly help the town? If not Arkham, then what? A random vote is not worth anything. What location do YOU think could benefit the town?

Shooting down Arkham as an option but not providing an alternative doesn´t sound good to me. I guess you were trampled over yesterday which sucks, but only doing damage control and not contributing doesn´t sit well with me. Though it can be excused since you have been busy arguing with people, so there is that.

I know you don´t want crazy stuff to happen, but there must be at least one location that you believe to be pro-town. Where?

I dont really have a read on Matt currently. He did look a little agressive earlier but I don´t think of it in a scummy way.

Time for some reads, though mostly tone reading.

Mac: My only clear civ read. Seems genuinely interested in finding the culprits.

Sig: Neutral/slight civ. I don´t like how he was blamed this early. People jumped at his throat at the slighest suspicion.

Golden and Enrique: Neutral. I'm surprised you managed to argue that much about something that doesn´t really matter right now, but Im still happy you had that discussion now rather than later on in the game where time is valuable.

Zebra: A frustrated civvy. People tunneled on her waaay too much.

MovingPictures: Neutral/sligtly scum. Rubs me the wrong way how he went for Zebra. Doesn´t seem to me like there was much to deduce from her choice of poll option, yet he kinda pushed her for it. Seems really forced.

Bass: Slightly scum. Weird tone + people have made valid points against him that I do somewhat agree with, but I wouldn´t call it evidence as of yet.

Bea: Neutral. I think I need to be meta if I want to read her/him at this point.

Im happy that Arkham is the most voted for poll option. The game almost urges us to go there, so Im surprised more people aren´t voting for it.

What is this based on?

Im not completely into the Batman universe, but from what I remember the Riddler places clues around wherever he has commited a crime. Its just speculation.

Yeah okay, thanks for explaining.

@Zebra

Why vote for anything randomly? I really believe its in our best interest to discuss or think about what effect our choice has on the game.

Why vote randomly yet still be suspicious of us who voted for what we actually think helps us? Can you please elaborate?

Yes they are gone, I think the argument to go there is that we could get information about their current locations.

Exactly. That´s why im heading there. It shouldnt be that dangerous if all the major villains are gone.

I was under the impression that the inmates had left/are currently leaving Arkham. Maybe they are gone as we arrive.

Oh okay, thanks.

Just cast my vote for Arkham Asylum.

Also, why has the hosts voted for the zoo?

I think it might be helpful. They might have left clues in their cells for all we know.

Hello everyone.

The game really wants us to go to Arkham imo. Thats where things are happening and I believe we might miss out on a lot of information if we neglect it.
