Dragon's opening
suspects were Enrique, ika, Sloonei, and Matt, all for lightweight, early reasons.
Day 1, first vote goes to Tranq, who was also the Night 1 arrest.

Let's scatter them a little more.
Tranq
DDL
answers a question on behalf of Scotty. Shortly after that, DDL's vote goes to gleam, where it remained...but:
Dragon D. Luffy wrote:I've just seen Dinny sheep on three different suspects in less than an hour.
First gleam, then Golden, and now Wilgy.
After he had already sheeped on Ika and Enrique.
Could be just a coincidence. It's not like there is a copyright on baddie reads that we are supposed not to breach. But it's uncanny. Every time player A suspects B, Dinny suddenly starts focusing on player B too.
linki: 10 posts. Fuck this. Gonna post mine then read those.
DDL calls Diiny out for "sheeping" (is that even a verb?), yet doesn't pursue Diiny further (who would later go on to be lynched Day 1). Instead, DDL puts the screws to gleam:
Dragon D. Luffy wrote:Oh sorry, you are not opposed to the idea of hunting mafia. You just don't want to lynch them. Accusing each other is okay as long as no blood is drawn.
Dragon D. Luffy wrote:I'm sorry, your responses could be genuine but you are filling every box of my checklist.
- First you were not trying to hunt scum.
- Then people called you out and you literally accused all three people who were suspecting you. In other words, OMGUS.
- Then you say you are trying to protect civs when you had never posted a single civ read.
- Then you pull the "no lynch" theory out of nowhere. Which is a objectively bad theory because we can't win the game unless we try to lynch people.
- And now you are pigbacking on someone to validade your own points, when that someone doesn't actually have the same opinion as you. I've got lynched twice before as mafia for doing that, and lynched another mafioso for it. I think it's a good scumtell.
There's another
Scotty post, this one in defense of him after Long Con speaks against Day 1 traditions. DDL's implication is a gambler's fallacy.
This is a
reaction to the sig and gleam votes. Here's my beef with this. DDL was
present at the end of the Day when gleam and sig made their votes. That means DDL could have berated them before about their votes. Instead, he waits until after the flip and distances himself from his own expressed opinions in the thread: "How dare you agree with what I said- I didn't even vote Diiny!" DDL takes no responsibility for people agreeing with his ideas and actually carrying out the lynch.
Here is DDL's response to
llama. I didn't get anything out of that one way or the other.
Ironically, DDL does what he had just got onto gleam and sig for:
Dragon D. Luffy wrote:SVS makes a good point on Sloonei, his flip-flopping is weird.
And he provides no explanation or clarification. How is it weird? Does weird mean bad?
And for further irony:
Dragon D. Luffy wrote:Basically my perfect 100% loss rate as a civ after 4 games in the Syndicate makes me afraid of tunneling hard on anyone, I've come to the conclusion my tells just aren't that trustworthy.
Of course, if no better suspect appears, I might vote for gleam again.
If DDL can't trust his own instincts, then why get on those who may not trust their own and instead rely on someone else's input?
I believe what follows is the first interaction with RadicalFuzz:
Dragon D. Luffy wrote:RadicalFuzz wrote:Luffy are you concerned about getting heat for unfamiliarity, is that why you're calling Soneji to the stand to testify to your behavior?
No. I was defending myself from him.
I'm always concerned about getting heat for a number of reasons, because I think I'm very prone to getting heat. Even more in the forum I came from than in here, now that I think about it.
On the Soneji thing, I just found strange that he had a worse grasp of my meta than I thought he would have, since I have played more than double the amount of games with him than with anyone here.
This was me finding him suspicious, not asking him for validation.
I still haven't formed a decent opinion on him though, because he hasn't posted anymore. The guy seems to have problems being active in Syndicate games, for some reason.
Nope, scratch that:
In Radifcal Fuzz's first post, DDL is the first person named, and also the first "suspect," with the "I don't like it." However, in Fuzz's
third post, Fuzz names a few things about DDL that he likes or agrees with. Going from "I don't like it" to fence sitting reeks of soft suspicion, the kind a person would have for a teammate.
That's Day 1 / Night 1. I'll look at the second phase later.
