This Russti. Now Made is on your lynch list, though I'm not sure who else was on your not-lynch list aside from players who're already dead.

Also, you said that everyone you would have lynched before (myself included) you wouldn't lynch now. But your opinion on me hasn't changed, and I've been asking for reasons why you think I'm bad since you quite suddenly placed your vote on me on Day 3. I'll go ahead and post a list of responses and other notable points, starting with his Day 3 vote.



http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 637#p95637 - Just completely out of left field. Didn't really acknowledge Boogs at all, other than the fact that he would probably be lynched.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 703#p95703 - In this interaction he agreed with me. That's great, I can deal with that. Still kind of odd though considering he just voted me because I could be bad.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 707#p95707 - Then there is this post. He first endorsed Boogs lynch, until it suddenly took off. Then he thinks Boogs shouldn't be lynched, because he thinks Boogs is civ. That is such a baddie ploy.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 104#p96104 - Then there is this giant wall of text. In it he talks about trying to get me lynched. Not true at all. Russti placed a vote on me on Day 3, which he later moved, and never up to that point (or later for that matter) had tried to get me lynched. This is the beginning of his case for fingers (which didn't last long), and also, near the bottom of this post, he claims that sabie is at the top of his lynch list. Keep that in mind. Moving on.

A bunch of Night 3 stuff regarding the kakuro and a few reactions and clarifications.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 267#p96267 - In retrospect, this post is completely opposite to what he'd been saying up to this point, as well as beyond. Not the next post too, where he said he would reconsider under extreme circumstances. It's just baffling. Oh, and by the way, he voted for me again on Day 4.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 302#p96302 - Here is the case against fingers. Time note, this rather lengthy case was posted at 10:20 PM EST.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 385#p96385 - At 1:23 PM EST, he completely switched regarding his position fingers. Not only this, but he changed his mind and decided that sabie should not be lynched. By my calculations, there were 6 votes on sabie at the time (though Snow Dog and Dom later switched). Sabie was at the top of Russti's lynch list just the previous night phase. But now that she has a sizable lead in the lynch, she shouldn't be lynched? This is the same baddie ploy we saw with the Boogs lynch. If I'm wrong on this. I'll eat my Keaton mask.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 446#p96446 - In this post, he completely backs of the sabie lynch, and calls for the rest of us to do the same, at a time when it ain't gonna happen. Baddie mcRussti.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 447#p96447 - Places his vote on me for Day 4, saying there is no time for a case. I don't think there's an intention to build a case. I think that he's just trying to stick to his guns on at least one suspicion. Otherwise, if you really think I'm bad, just give me some proof already.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 451#p96451
http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 454#p96454 - Two more posts telling people to vote for me. No reasons. It looks more justifiable because he's offering his own head, but I'm calling BS.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 497#p96497 - States his suspicion of me again, says he will gather quotes for a case tonight. Crosswording continues.

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 718#p96718 - Says he will wait until morning to make the case because making cases at night isn't 'smart'.



So that's two consecutive days that Russti has advocated a lynch the night before or even the very beginning of the day phase. But after the lynch gets rolling, he backs off and decides he doesn't like the idea of them getting lynched. I don't see this as a civvie with cold feet. This is a baddie looking for cred and an 'I told you so' after the lynch happens. Baddies know who the civvies are, so it's a perfect opportunity.

There's also the whole deal with his 'case' on me. Countless times he has mentioned me being potentially bad, but without bothering to pursue it at all. I'd love some input on this, but I'm convinced Mr. Russti is a Hyrulian.


Also, I added pretty colors since this wall of text looks so ugly otherwise.

Bomb is one of the items, Snowie. I would presume that's how they did it.

Bothersome, because it means they're not feeling threatened enough to use their rupees on protections instead, which means we're not even close (to at least one of them).

All the more reason for you people to think outside the box.

RIPIYWG guys.

So, curious how we should do this poll. If it works like a lynch poll, I will likely vote russ, and if not him Made. I do not like how made keeps putting himself forward like everyone trusts him, and I feel like his actions last night were incredibly sketchy.

Mister Rearranger wrote:Not the subtlest of baddies, are you Snow?

For all Made's bluster, he never signed up for the challenge.

Thinking about which of the 3 options above my name I get the worst vibes from. I recommend that others do the same.

Russ is all over the place this time, so I'll need to take a detailed look at him as well. He could certainly be a certain baddie role, I suppose. But I think the "I'm bad so I'll vehemently defend a civvie that everyone else suspects" is an incredibly ballsy and unnecessary move when none of the baddies had drawn any heat.

RIP Zeek. I was waiting on that post you said you were going to make because I was leaning towards thinking you might be Hyrule but Link's sword took care of that suspicion.
We still don't know what Bass's allegiance was so RIWYEU (wherever you end up).

4 questions:

Can the host clear up if this is the lynch poll?

Is there some prize I'm not aware of for crazy posting? If so I can go apeshit. :P

Russ, would you care to fill us in on this "long story"? I have time now.

Can someone tell me if this is Snowdog's usual game style? It doesn't seem all that civvie to me.

Also, why MM?

That makes me bad, Llama?

Russtifinko wrote:Now, I'm not certain he's bad. There are 2 players I feel much more strongly about, but neither is on the poll today. (Which, if Dom is bad, fits with my "one baddie will try to win the Triforce" theory, but that's another thing.)

Anyway, Dom is the person on this poll ho I feel worst about.

My thoughts on you haven't changed. I'm gonna continue pestering you too until you post that case you've been talking about.

Dom hasn't pinged me as a baddie. Even his shenanigans from the first 2-3 days, I'm leaving alone. I know he was quite frustrated about how the Dr. Who game turned out (as was I); I was his BTSC partner, so got to witness firsthand and behind the scences. I think he's just trying something different here.

I'm holding off on judgment of llama right now, but I trust him.

Fingers I'm pretty certain is civ.

Made I am in the middle. This is standard Made behavior.

I thought zeek might be a quiet baddie partner, but that idea was shot to pieces.

Fair enough about Dom. As you can see from the bit of my post I left off, the case on you isn't coming. So no pestering, please. Also, I agree with you on fingers. And trusting llama =/= holding off judgement on him. :P

Shocking plot twist: (Or maybe this will shock no one...)

I was thinking wrong again before. I am now 100 billion quadrillion percent certain I am right, if you guys will be believe that. And I solemnly swear my crazy switchiness is over for the rest of the game.

MM is not a goodie like I thought. I think we should give either him or me the Triforce today.

Also, Dom is my biggest suspect on the potential lynch list today. You guys think I've acted weird, well check this out:

If you are both certain that I am a civvie, you wouldn't mind giving me the triforce then.

LizKeen wrote:
wth? Put down the crack pipe, get some fresh air.

I seriously am not sure what you or Made are doing. At least he's been uber-helpful puzzle-wise. Although maybe it's a double bluff, like I couldn't be Hyrule because I'm so helpful and wouldn't my team tell me to shut up...but then maybe that's what we're supposed to think? But he's not on the poll so a discussion for another day as is Snow. I'm going to bed soon and this post isn't coming obviously because you've changed your mind. Again.

I'm starting to think maybe you're trying to take the heat because maybe you have some power that allows you to survive a lynch or appear Ganon. And I'm getting a very iffy feeling about your massive post against FS and then reversal. And that after I made a comment about how much she posts when she says she doesn't have time then she's not posting so much. If my spidey senses are in any way right I'm going to vote her today because I'm not at all sure I'd trust whatever a lynch on you would say. It doesn't look good that she will be lynched but if she is and she's Hyrule then I'd definitely feel better about going after you.

Is there any way you can answer if this will this be a time-sensitive fight to the death? I'm a bit concerned about agreeing to this, and then not being there for whenever what it is will take place.

I'm wondering how long the fight will take too. I know you probably won't answer all these things I'm curious, but I shouldn't probably agree to it. I have work all day tomorrow and then have to go to the hospital again right after.
