The Syndicate

Yeah the Goblin scenario is more logical of the 2 that Llama and others have suggested. I think her Goblin teammates voted me knowing she wouldn't die. I don't know if they would have, but they could have used ballots on voting me also as a possibility to consider? I think once we see who Mongoose is when she gets lynched will direct us at her possible teammates if she is a Goblin or to other suspicions if she did not turn out to be one or Smaug.

A baddie wouldn't throw away a save for someone not on their team. Not when it could come back to bite them later. I'm not saying I agree with Boogs' crazy theory up there, but still... I think that scenario is very unlikely. If the baddies saved you it's because you're on their team.

If that's true, then that's not how I was saved.

Here's my contribution. Notice the traditional woodelven dress and magick wand.

RIP DP and Juliet. I have a feeling we'll be seeing Dom again, or else the host wouldn't write "presumed killed".

I'll get to work on my artwork later, and in other news I'm still looking at Mongoose today. I think her suggestion that Goblin town would waste a lynch save on someone not on their seem just seems desperate.

MS Paint is fine for those of you who don't want to win prizes. I went for Wood Elf Verité!

RIPIYWG Dom. Didn't have much of a read on you either way. WBIYAG TH!

I still think Mongoose is the best option for today. The part about the town Goblins saving her from a lynch if she's not on their team seems a bit of a stretch. Unfortunately, I have yet to hear anything else that would make me dissuade from her. I'm going to go ahead and vote for her.

Boogs wrote:RIPIYWG DP And I really hope that Dom isn't dead and will be back!
Welcome TH again! So glad you're back! And I hope you are still good this time!

Smaug just killed 2 nights in a row, and she didn't get lynched. I looked and it doesn't include any info when Smaug kills. But, I have a strong inkling Smaug kills odd nights, which would mean someone did something to allow Smaug to kill again. I am hoping Smaug doesn't have 2 lynch saves.
I think that llama suggesting that the other Goblin team used the device thing to save Mongoose is highly likely and some teammates were trying to vote me hoping to get me out because they knew she was going to survive. Whether she is A Goblin or Smaug, she's bad news and I am going to vote her again today unless something miraculous comes to light and changes my mind.

you presume to know so much about Smaug's secrets. How come?

Oh man, those spiders did some damage to out company! you guys :/ Dom, good luck with those spiders!

I'm not saying that voting for Mongoose is bad or that I assume her to be good, it's just that there are a lot of baddies out there that can easily hide within this Mongoose hunt.

I'm going to do some reading on other people and see what comes to light.

this is all i can manage with a touchpad

That is oddly beautiful, Matt.

What's up hobbitches

It IS desperate! I would really like to not die, but that does not seem likely.

Sorry I missed the poll. I was out of town and lost track of what I needed to do.

Mongoose, if we don't lynch you, who would you suggest we look at instead?

Captain Bunny Killer wrote:I don't know what's going on, but I have one point to make: No one has suggested the possibility that the indy team could be aligned with the full-strength baddie team. If that is the case, we may be scwewed.

I don't think anyone has suggested it because, first, it's ridiculously unlikely (it's only Night 4), and second, it would be against the elves' best interest to stop being a win-with-any-faction independent group.

I also don't get why anyone would be screwed. If the elves became aligned with the Townie Goblins, then so what? It doesn't mean they get BTSC, it doesn't mean they acquire a kill, and it doesn't mean they even know who the Townie Goblins are.

This leaves me scratching my chin: What was your purpose in raising this absurd possibility?

Is it to incite paranoia about a group who would strategically want to stay neutral, would not know the identities of those with whom they were aligned, and would thus remain ignorant of how to succeed? Because I damn sure can't imagine any other reason for you to plant such a bizarre and unrelated thought in the thread.

What happens for the Townie Goblins when the cave-dwelling Goblins are all but wiped out?

As Miss McLachlan once put so eloquently, there's no one left to finger- no one here to blame. But I bet you've got plenty of people to talk to honey, and there ain't no one to buy your innocence.

Wow, seriously? It was a hairbrained paranoia that had come to mind but I hadn't researched. I didn't go back and look up the roles again until this evening.
If you're looking for baddies, you're severely misguided. I am innocent and I don't have anyone to talk to.

*Ahem*
My time to shine.

also im going to go ahead and vote mongoose, i also see no reason as to why she would survive other than her being smaug.

^ Dude, I miss your painty stuff. You should illustrate daily events again k.

So if the spiders got Dom (and according to this, looks like he is dead), does this mean that the Moria goblins didn't have a kill attempt?

Sup THobbitch? WB!

Monsieur le Host, since TH 2.0 knows TH 1.0's role, do the rest of us mortals get to know it as well? (:

And dayum, that's a fast pile up!

I hadn't thought of that! I skipped that chapter in the Guide of Standard and Conventional Hosting Practices. Let me consult with more experienced colleagues.

It makes me sad and disappointed that even having seen her masterfully cute wood elf drawing some of you are still voting Mongoose. Have you people no heart?

Ok, I have consulted. TH's previous role will remain unannounced for the sake of fairness. Lots of people know things others don't in mafia. Just happens TH knows one of those things now.

Okay, thanks. We had a similar situation in HP, and there no-one knew that an eliminated player was a replacement because that was a sock game, yet we thought for the sake of fairness, that everyone should know that person's role, even though they weren't in a team prior or after the replacement.

Well, tell us everything you know that we don't, Lizzy. I think that's only fair. Start with an easy one. Who are your BTS buddies?

I'll go ahead and vote Mongoose again.

By the way I still think llama is evil but that doesn't stop me from thoroughly agreeing with the review above.

Seems like there's a lot of gibberish and Insanifies going on lol yeesh. I will go ahead and vote Mongoose again today and based on other's behaviors and her role if she gets lynched, we should be able to deduce who her teammates are if she ends up turning up Goblins and not Smaug.

Is your drawing insanified too, MM?

Oh, and I voted for Mongoose for obvious reasons.

Vompatti wrote:It makes me sad and disappointed that even having seen her masterfully cute wood elf drawing some of you are still voting Mongoose. Have you people no heart?

IFKR.

I'll be back later to make my token vote and watch the fallout when you see that I'm not bad ("oh no, I really thought she was bad; I can't read her for crap" etc) because I always get a perverse kick out of that.

I'm voting Mongoose now before I forget. I think her last survival is weird as well as her responses after.

Also, I liked Vompatti's picture the best so far

Oh really? How's that gonna work exactly?

Also, it would be nice if you answered my previous question.

If Mongoose had teemmates who knew she would survive a lynch (and knew that surviving a lynch would look suspicious, given our roles), wouldn't they just vote for her to look good? I mean, Mongoose had 9 votes before any of the 4 votes for you. That's not a very good effort to get you out.

This is the point I was making as well.

Here is my Wood Elf submission, which will only make sense to people familiar with both the Hobbit and Pushing Daisies.

I give you Ned, King of the Woodland Pie Shop:

I considered doing that again, its also very time consuming. And its really hard to have time to do those when every time I log back on here i have 10 pages to catch up on and also sometimes the host posts are really hard to draw. But I'll consider it

It's not a ton of votes in a game this big, but I do have an an uneasy feeling about the mongoose vote being so decided again. I will wait for now, but Boogs isn't giving me better feeling about him either. I can't believe we would be so lucky to vote 3 baddies in a row out and then have smaug against another goblin though. Seems too easy, even if I want to believe it.

That said I can't come up with a good reason for Mongoose survival, so probably better safe than sorry.

Reywas- I'm not SO sure, I just had strong feeling that was the kill, but because it's Secret under the role page we have no confirmation or denial. I just kinda assumed Smaug may have missed the pm Night 1 because all of a sudden Smaug killed nights in a row.
Also, if. Mongoose turned Goblin on the other team, we could see who is voting on me that didn't make sense today as well as reviewing yesterday's lynch votes to piece together who may be her teammates.

Capt bunny- They would still vote me because why would they vote her if she would survive if there is a possibility others would follow their example and latch votes onto me who also has suspicion and make sure I got out? It wouldn't be a bad idea to vote someone if you knew the top suspect would survive and hope the votes were worth more on the second target or you may lead a lynch train. Luckily, it backfired and I didn't get voted out.

Boogs wrote: Capt bunny- They would still vote me because why would they vote her if she would survive if there is a possibility others would follow their example and latch votes onto me who also has suspicion and make sure I got out?

Because 1) too obvious and 2) civ cred.
