The Syndicate

I first heard it from lorab waaaaay back in the day like first bts? Maybe second? I do admit it was something that wasn't really commented on by the name in game much. Mostly the debate as I remembered it way using the info vs not using it.

Awesome hosts are awesome. It was fun having bts for the short time I had it. I was super lame this game. Way too much going on to keep track of for me. My role was super awesome but underused by my own fault.

Well done winners!

Love to you all. And special thank yous to our hosts who have once again provided some massive recruitment fun!!

Still can't believe I was alive at the end. Imma chalking that up as a win for me.

I chose two people I had never had BTS with before; G Man because i thought he would be fun and I know he's smart, and Rico because no one would ever expect it and I would like to get to know him better both as a player and as a person. But I got my first pick. Like bea said best team building strategy, recruit people smarter than you

Truth sista! Congrats!!

I'm voting llama. I think anyone who is not forced to vote otherwise and not on llama's team should do the same. We can't not at least TRY to take out the known baddie.

Poll said be selfish. Azure isn't the only person who has a sweet position 2. If we all get the position we vote for, I want the one that helps me the most.

That makes it a much better option than position 36.

Imma vote position 2.

Devin as I said earlier when I switched, I was positive it didn't matter where my vote went, it was going to get switched regardless.

Good job not dying daisy!

Me too, and no one seems to care.

I'm cool with switching to bullz too. Just worried that the lynch is gonna get switched regardless. But if you think we got a better shot at getting a baddie with bullz rock and roll.

switching naow

Too many wolves in the sheep pen.

Pretty sure that one of them is a wolf in llama clothing.

vote llama.

TH -

You say that sarcastically, but it was still awesome. And it's one of the strongest first memories I have of you when I was a noob mafia player and just observing rather than playing way back in the day. Showed you to be a player who could think outside the box and helped you to become the player you are now. Don't sell yourself short.

point still stands. Rare as it is, it could happen.

I do agree with you though. If he is the Merc at some point we have to deal with him. I just don't think today is necessarily the day.

I think that given the position we are in, we will gain more by learning the info from a LA lynch than we will gain from civs and baddies alike all voting to take out a potential SK.

For the moment I'm willing to take Sawyer at his word. I think it goes without saying, nor should be any surprise to Sawyer, that this can change if I feel it needs to.

Also - it's not common by a long shot, but it's not completely unheard of that he could help the civs. I seem to remember a certain Big Bad Wolf (TH) being quite the help to the civs, particularly Bo Peep in that storybook game on LP way back in the day......

voting LA

Looks like 3 is where it's going regardless of where I vote. Just now remembered I had to. Doh. So 3 it is.

Rip teefies.

Ebwop votes LA

Just got done from work. Epi you sound pretty confident. I can put my vote on la and back burner tranq.

Epi - thanks for your thoughts. I hadn't concidered the bug aspect, but it's a fair point. I honestly don't know aapje's play style well enough to know if he'd hold a grudge that long.

I'm super sketched out by tranq's quiet. I honestly don't remember the last time he posted. I'm putting my vote there as I have to work up till vote change time. I will try to be back before then to see if I should move it.

fwiq I'm sad too lorab.

epi - lets cut to the quick

are you civ? Do you think aapje might be civ?

why or why not on your reasons?

Then you're calling bullshit on yourself. And you're being defensive about it.
No I'm just at saying you're wrong about there being no unrecruited neutrals out here.

what are you trying to say epi? spell it out to me like I'm drunk and dumb, becasuse I'm drunk and dumb.

I read appje as pro civ so I dindin't question his posts, but wait. IF he was civ, then the baddies may or may not have taken him out based on how accuratete he was.

Oh - oh !! oh!!! and so because we've all been reading him as good, when he might noot be and it's now N10 and appje is a power player, and wtf how is he still aive uneless he's a civ and hence your post.

Im a dumbass

Epignosis wrote:Questions at Dawn:

If you were a civilian recruiter, would you take aapje?

Do you think aapje is a civilian recruiter?

If I could control ANY team, I'd want aaje. Civ baddie or anything I would want aaje. And Tranq.

I don't know if he's the civ recruiter or not, but he's played a pretty for him, I think civ friendly game. He's on the list of people I listen to.

I'm so very worryed and freeked out by the fact that NO ONE else besides me is so very worried that tranq has been so quiet,

Even aapje. Though tbh, I expected him to lead a lynch on me days ago soley on the DP theory of involvement.

rip all you guys.

The civvies do have incentive to push their cases, and they need to do so if they want to weed out the baddies from the neutrals. Because right now it feels like no one cares what happens.

sooooo much this!!!!!!!

right now TH =

which team are you on MM? you quit being neutral a while ago ammIrite?

apparently sorsha.

that's nice too that this time we are on the same sorta team again.

Sorsha - are you freeked out by tranq's quiet? I've brought it up a few times and on one seems to care...

epi - this is not the last recruitement game. I'm not bad. Please see it. I'm also not good either. i'm a vote for hire or an easy lynch bandwagon.

linki - epi - it would treat me awesome if I had it.

Are you newly civ? or newly bad? Because I KNOW i'm not recruited and I know you have to be. Which team are you on?

for realzie dealzies kids - if you're a civ now's the time to claim it. For god's sake, I ccan't believe I'm the one to give an uninformed person a hint.

BTW - I did get ONE hint. Thank you for that. You know who you are.

all I'm really saying is there is room for the unrecruitedd.It was built into the game and I am one of them. I can't say who if any of the others are that are in the same boat as me. I think that claiming it is interesting. I know that I'm willing to go on the chopping block to prove we still exist. I .on't know if any of the other unrecruited feel the same way,

There are still unrecruited roles out there in their post they specifically said that neutral roles were going to be limited. In thiI kns last challenge - that if I remember correctly was supposed to go to the baddies, and it was the last recruitment opportunities that the hosts talked about.

I know I'm so very uninvolved that I've not compeleted a single thing that would recruit me to a team and no team who could have recrutied me based on my roll found me usefull enough to take.

Here's what I 100 percent know - I'm a neautral and I'm mostly drunk and it's the first time in days I've had free time to actually engage and play the game.

epi - take it for what you will.

also more linki - epi - in the win conditions there is a space for neutrals. it's in the win cons Is it really so hard to belive that thare might be a player or two or 5 who might fall into the catagory that the hosts saw potentially happening?

Me too!

so - me, you, th, sawyer, and roxy? right? that's 5. A potential 5 person voting block who could or could not decide to be a team or not a team - or vote any wich way they want to vote

I'm not gonna lie, that's cool as shit!!

I love you hosts

sounds like the teams better start playing mafia if they want our votes..

Also from here on out. If you WANT to vote me for being uninvolved do so. But please quit hiding behind "bea must be bad she's so not involved."

Own it. Vote me for my involvement not what side you think I'm on. Cuz if you are baddie hunting with me you are either flat out wrong, or happy for the distraction. ;

llini with Sorsha but not epi - I also have not competed in a single recruitment. I'm too busy for that crap tbh. I am only here because it's the rare one night I got done early, my staff knnws I'm about to bust and I have some thinking beers.

tranq - why did you vote the position you voted?

Then I am honored, sir, to finally be knowingly on a loosely based collective with you.

I love me some Sam Seaborn. Even when he's working in the Parks Department. But really??!!! wtf is up with that pict???!!! They could have totes used a better Parks pict!!

Roxy wrote:I am neutral.

You are entitled to your opinion.

I am accusatory bc people are accusing me of lying about A - my stance of there being two nights and B - my silenceing.

Riddle me this - if there was not 2 nights why was I not silenced the first but I was the second night?

I think you are trying to set me up for lynch but it will only serve to make you look bad when I flip Neutral but by all means follow your heart.

From the host posts themselves, both nights were the same night.
From you - you have weird night powers.

I can see (not a specific role as every new position I have to look to see what my powers are) how both of these could be true.

I guess my point is, I wasn't trying to lead you to a lynch, nor would I buy one that lead to you based on last night alone.

I *think* that you sawyer and I could possibly be the last neutrals out there. No one else is claiming it anyway.

TEEFIES IS BAD!!! BURN THE WITCH!!! BURRRN HER!! um, I mean him! WB Teefies!

The tranq bit was kinda a suprise.

So, lama it is
Do you agree with her suspicion of you?

I don't recall her stating a strong suspicion of me, but I understand why people are. I've been an uninvolved crap player. I wouldn't be surprised to be lynched at any point, but being uninvolved doesn't make me mafia. I've not been recruited. To any side.

Wb teefies and gman btw. Cute pits gman.

I'm curious about this whole MM/Llama thing. They both seem to be accusing each other of the exact same baddie playing.

I'm skerred that tranq is so quiet. I'm kinda shocked more people aren't as well.

I like aapje's post asking the neurals to play civ minded. I totes get that. I'm more than happy to follow vote with someone I have good feelings about.

Canucklehead wrote:I'm feeling a bit moorless in this game right now, tbh, which is entirely my fault for not doing enough to role research/keeping track of powers and missed things and all that Apple Monkey type stuff ( ).....and I honestly don't see that changing.
But I agree with apples that even the most neutral of neutrals need to essentially play as civvies now, because all the kills floating around are not great for the neutral win con, and helping the Cubs find the killers means we're less likely to be both nk'd and lynched....
But since I've been neutrality grand central for the game thus far, I'm a bit hooped for actually forming opinions on who's bad......damn my laziness-disguised-as-neutrality!

All that to say, I want to look at bea. She just has not been Civ bea this game AT ALL, and I think that the guilty conscience she's feeling and all her apologies stem from feeling like she's letting her teammates down. I haven't done a read-through of her yet, so no idea if I suspect her of one team more than the other yet....but my gut says baddie bea is afoot, and I need to follow my gut (if only as an attempt to get my head actually into the game....)

<3 you canuck, but your gut is incorrect this game. I am neutral and busy and admittedly half paying attention. I can honestly say that everything in your first paragraph is equal to where I've been. I haven't researched, I have very few ideas as to who to suspect and the small pings I do get are pretty much based on reading other people's work. I've been super slacky. I thought I was up for a game, and it turns out I'm not because inevitably, when I decide to do anything in my limited free time, all hell is going to break loose in my store and I'm going to exhaust my brain power on that.

I feel very badly for that. And to be honest, I wouldn't at all be surprised to get lynched. I can easily see why. My participation sucks it and I don't see it getting super case makey any time soon. For that alone, I feel badly not to any particular team, but to all of you and our beloved hosts. You all deserve better.

Me too.

Yea. I own my teefies vote. And my sync vote (as super lame as that one was on my part.)

Going with position 2. I'm not letting rock con punish me. I distrust their definition of mild.

Sorry I was wring teeifes.

Good job not dying dh and la! Rip timmer.

I had my doubts about teefies day 1. Rico made some very strong points yesterday. I wasn't so moved by teefies defense. I'm cool with voting teefies

4 seems to be the one with the least amount of uzbaprotection so I will go with it.

@ syn -do you think it's best to vote teefies even if he's uzbuthecantbelynched today?

I mean - if you weren't trying to save yourself, where would your vote have gone?

still not me.

thanks dh for the input. i know I was slacky on svs - but I do appreciate your opinion.

Be back later.

Why Azura specifically? Do you know he's not on team Ubz because you are? Also, wasn't your main reason for suspecting him based on his activity in the Bubbles lynch, if you think he's Bubbles' teammate that would be team Ubz.

This is an interesting point.

I'm not really feeling the syn lynch right now either. And if BWT is uzbrothahellonwheels, I'm not quite comfy with the votes going to him as well, since he will live. Is it worth wasting a vote on BWT if he is uzbackstop?

Along with BWT -- I liked Rico's case and could definitely see BWT being Ubzimbabwe.
Eye me all you want. I am not bad. But please, ask me anything. I have nothing to hide.
Why are there so many songs about Lorab
And what's on the other side?
Lorabs are visions
But only illusions
And Lorabs have nothing to hide

So we've been told
And some choose to believe it
I know they're wrong, wait and see
Some day we'll find it,
The Lorab connection
The baddies, the neutrals, and me

Who said that every post
Would be read and answered
When pinged on the scum radar
Somebody thought of that
And someone believed it
And look what it's done so far

What's so amazing
That keeps us thread-gazing
And what do we think we might see
Someday we'll find it
The Lorab connection
The baddies, the neutrals, and me

All of us under her spell, we know that she's probably mafia

Have you been half asleep?
And have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name
Is this the sweet sound
That called the young recruits?
The voice might be one in the same

I've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm supposed to be
Someday we'll find it
The Lorab connection
The baddies, the neutrals and me

La da da di da da daaaa....

this wins the thread.

I understand rox, just thought if I posed the question different I might see it more clearly.
