Now why can't the rest of you be as sweet as dunya, here. Her mother must be proud. And I just have all of you sitting around here quoting this person or that person, making jokes, and acting like we don't have a lynch ahead of us. Focus, children!
It’s starting to look like it’s just you and me, Kiddo...

"I think the notion of a retirement is just a dreadful, dreadful idea and I hope I never have to do that."
"I'm lucky to be part of a team who help to make me look good, and they deserve as much of the credit for my success as I do for the hard work we have all put in on the training ground."

I personally didn’t think much of this post from Kyle. To my mind, it looks like an attempt to appear to engage with his fellow players by giving them a task to perform. Subsequent comments in relation to his question makes it appear that he’s generating content without genuine engagement.
Don’t like this from Quin either. Quin’s far too good a player to fall for this and I’d frankly have expected better.
Sloonei buys into Kyle’s question and provides valid content - a good look from Sloonei here.Sloonei wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 1:29 amEarthrealm is the mundane sphere, the netherrealm is the underworld, the outworld is the great void beyond. Chaos and orderrealm are the realms of competing energies, and Edenia is the blissful state at the nexus of all of them. I've also never played these games and just made that up. What are you going to base your vote off of?
Votes in this poll are not changeable.
While I’m inclined to skepticism of Jay’s read on Kyle, I think his evaluations of Quin and Sloonei are valid however based on the limited content this page.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 1:35 am Kyle is town because "let's go" is the thing he said when his confidence surged post-mafioso lynch as a civilian.
Sloonei is town because he's already trying to facilitate true to form.
Quin is mafia because he called Kyle's question "good" without clarifying why he cared about the question or why it moved him.
"I'll do my best."Glorfindel wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2018 9:19 am Page 2 - Key take-aways:
Continued discussion and conjecture about the role of the poll. If Kyle was trying to create a smoke screen, he appears to have been successful (not that the conjecture wasn’t without some level of interest).
MacDougall loses 10 points for reminiscing on the Star Wars game - my first here at The Syndicate and one I’ve spent the past two+ years trying to forget.
I see the reasoning being put forward by those arguing for visiting the Outworld first up but you’ll have to forgive me my cautious nature here. If the logic being applied is that some advantage accrues to the ‘home team’ for any of these places, starting the game by giving an advantage to the bad guys hardly makes any sense to me. I’ll be taking note of those players that voted for this option first up - it might potentially be very useful later on.
I find this question posed by Jay to Quin to be rather odd. MacDougall had commented earlier that he was thinking similarly to Jay earlier but for Jay to be suggesting some kind of relationship between he and Mac out of the blue like this seems ‘unsettling’.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 2:41 amWhat are your immediate impressions of Mac and I?Quin wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 2:38 amoh ok sorry ill do better next timeMacDougall wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 2:36 am Quin I'm sorry buddy but I actually had the same thoughts as Jimmy as I was going through page 1. Then when I read him say it I got a little bit frustrated that he stole my thunder. As you well know I am never wrong on a day 1 read so you might as well just give up.
Quin wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 3:02 amHe's been around as much as the next person so far but hasn't touched on the only suspect (me) yet, and has talked primarily about the poll.

I don't accept Jimmy's argument for clearing as that's just as likely if not more so just common phrasing that Kylemii uses.Quin wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2018 2:55 amTell me about Kylemii.
Thank you for the question. What were you expecting me to say?
Yeah, see this is the Quin I was expecting to find here this game. It’s early but I wonder if we’re seeing the beginning of an anti-Quin agenda in the making?

I’m pretty sure I addressed Tony’s vote on me a page or so back. Either he has no choice in the matter or he’s not rowing with both oars in the water. As for my vote, it’s not like I have any choice but I’m exploring my options right now. I must say that right now, I’m taking everyone with a severe posting affliction off the table.

Honestly same, it has ruined the game for me. To be fair, I don't see a beneficial factor in what is happening now. in fact it's making things worse, how is this supposed to help anyone?!

All these nonsense (or artificial) curses have ruined this game this Day phase. The few posts that have been made so far have been spectacularly devoid of any discernable reason or point. It has been a revelation and a free ride to our Mafia friends and handed them a significant advantage in this game overall - and all of these stupid curses are to blame. I am so disgusted at this.

I fear that you are wrong, my friend - there are indeed people in this game you can trust. Just because they are forced to post nonsense doesn’t make them bad (at least not as bad as any Townie who imprudently uses such an ability to stifle discussion and strangle any chance of us trying to deduce the identity of our Outworld friends). It appears that there aren’t many of us who are unaffected - perhaps we have been isolated or protected from the effects of this Chaosrealm thing for some reason - I think Nutella seemed to be suggesting that to be the case.lapluie wrote: ↑Wed Jan 17, 2018 6:42 amI dont trust anyone in this game here anymore! youre the only sane one here & im trusting you on that. what should we do?Glorfindel wrote: ↑Wed Jan 17, 2018 5:02 amI trust you have not succumbed to the abject insanity of this game this Day phase?

Some roles could prove themselves through judicious application of their powers, at least to targeted individuals. That's not the same as role-outing, for example saying "I am M. Bison".
I would not be opposed to some host clarification on that front.
