Champions 2019 - Crisis on The Syndicate [SIGNUPS]

[Long Con]

Moonlight shone softly through the prison bars that secured every window in Sockville Penitentiary. Seamus Fitzroy woke uneasily, sensing something amiss in his cell. The last few nights had been tumultuous in the prison; prisoner deaths were on the rise, and the Warden was on to the escape plan.

Seamus sat up suddenly, realizing there was a man in the cell with him. His hand went to the shiv he had secreted underneath his pillow.

"You will have no need of your weapon, Seamus Fitzroy," the man's deep baritone voice boomed out.

"I am The Monitor. Even now, the corrupt Warden of this prison has guards coming to murder you in your sleep, but that need not be your fate. I have need of your assistance with a larger problem... for you see, Seamus Fitzroy, your reality itself is in jeopardy."

Seamus narrowed his eyes. "My reality? Look, mister, I don't know what--"

"There is no time," the Monitor stepped forward and held up a hand. "Look out your window, Seamus Fitzroy, and witness!"

Seamus turned his head, realizing that the brightness streaming in was more than just moonlight. Cresting the horizon was a wall of white nothingness, and it was sweeping across the sky and landscape toward them. Confused, he cried out, "What the hell is that?"

"That," intoned the Monitor, "Is a wave of antimatter. It is sweeping across each universe in the Syndicate multiverse, wiping it from existence. The Syndicate has but one chance to survive, you must help me defeat the--"

"Hey!" cried out a guard from outside the cell. "You can't be in there! Both of you, get on the ground!" He grabbed the ring of keys from his belt, and fumbled for the cell key.

"Come with me, Seamus Fitzroy," the Monitor spoke steadily. "Join us as we fight for the multiverse. We can turn the tide against this crisis, and save reality from annihilation!"

"Yeah, yeah!" cried Seamus, panicked as he stared out the window at the rapidly approaching antimatter wave. "Get me outta here!"

The Monitor held up a hand, and the two of them vanished in a purple glow just as the guard got the cell door open. He stood, dumbfounded, as the white wave of nothingness washed over the prison, wiping it from existence.

How many do you need and when does it start?

[juliets]

[mention]S~V~S[/mention] omg pleeeaaaaaassssseeeee play! I think [mention]Long Con[/mention] said he was looking for 23 but I alerted him here to answer the question.

[Long Con]

I'd like 25-27 players and it starts when I get them.

OK, so not like this weekend, because I am hard pressed for time for the next week or so. I'll sign up. If it starts before the 18th I may be scarece for the first few days.

[mention]S~V~S[/mention] omg pleeeaaaaaassssseeeee play! I think [mention]Long Con[/mention] said he was looking for 23 but I alerted him here to answer the question.

It's been almost a year since I played. Can you direct me to a game so I can get an idea of the current state of Syndicate Mafia?

I'm giving you two games. The first (The Wire) was the last big game that was played in Nov. and Dec. so I think you can get a pretty good idea of the state of game play. The second (Inception) was an invitational and you can get a really good look at the newer strategy of throwing out multiple random votes early in the game before finally settling on someone. Some people claim to be able to read a person off of one post. Others are doing it to put pressure on an individual to see how they respond. There are still others who do it for reasons that are unknown to me. (I am not usually someone who participates in this random early voting because I am old school still).

Here is the Wire:

Here is Inception (it was an Invitational so we had a lot of people you probably don't know playing with us). It was played in Oct. - Dec.:

Let us know if you have any questions, we are all happy to help you get up to speed.
