The Syndicate

And yeah I'm aware she made an ISO but that could have been done on purpose so yeah.

I think I'm gonna vote for nutella and Bass, and maybe possible Mac.

There is. Modkill people.

I'd rather have a 4 week game with no inactives than a 6 week game with a bunch of inactives.

I don't get why hosts in this site avoid modkills so much. Yes it screws up balance, but it's a necessary evil.

Personally, I prefer for hosts to maintain the balance of the game they created. I also don't think it's a necessary evil--if it were, then there would be far fewer successful games without mod kills. I also like that it becomes up to the players how to deal with inactive players. I guess it's a matter of what we are all used to and what mafia realm raised us as players, so to speak. I think a lot of us here have always played in a realm where mod kills were extremely rare, or more specifically, in which the game evolved away from modkills in a very intentional way.

So you people think there is two people who are recruiting . That seems a little broke to me.

I think discounting the possibility of the second mafia recruiting is far more dangerous than considering the possibility.

I think it's unlikely but not impossible. Not sure how we can use that information though. Specially since there is already a recruiting role in the game so the fact some civs could change alignment during the game is already a given.

I feel like mafia are running this thread because Quin has been super vocal and use been night killed even after the fact she was all over MP day one or was it day two?

Well guys, I moved. I'm still dealing with unpacking all the stuff and I have been so absent, I'm very sorry. I intend to try and catch myself up this evening. I checked before I posted to make sure I wasn't dead or replaced. I actually asked ot be replaced some time ago but there are no replacements to be had it seems. Sorry...

It seems super quiet today.

Is that sentence about me? What does it mean? "Could have been done on purpose" what do you think I accidentally farted out a post?

Gonna catch up later and respond everything else.

Called it.

Russtifinko wrote:Oh also, what happened to the suspicions/voting of me? That was a thing, right?

You evoked consternation on the first day for your prefect choice procedure, but since haven't done too much of interest. I don't like your fairly random Day 3 vote explanation, but I do like your questioning of Blooper. And you were very quiet on Day 4. I get... a very, very slight bad vibe? Mostly from this:

You don't think they're bad, you just want them gone?

Which is a little manipulative, and MM proved to be a good choice.

Well, I have to vote, and I haven't seen anything to change my mind. Bass is right about the quietness, but then again, it is a holiday weekend. DDL and Caps again.

Simon and Bass.

Fuck all you who tried to lynch me yesterday while I was incapable of speaking in my defence. Luffy did you silence me and try to get me lynched swine?

You had 4 days to make yourself look like a civ. You didn't so I don't give a shit if you didn't have an extra day.

And who sileneced you on day 2, 3 and 4, btw?

I'm sorry I didn't spend the first 4 days trying to "look like a civ".

If you really require an answer as to why I didn't post a lot it's because I work about 60 hours a week and have a 5 year old. And since when was me being quiet indicative of me being bad?

You being quiet wasn't.

You being more pacific than Glorfindel was.

What does that mean?

It means that you haven't gone after anyone with any fervor all game. That's uncharacterisitc of you.

Nah I drove MP (bad) to tears.

Hey where the hell is everyone? I've got two hours to decide who to vote for, and so do the rest of you...

I'm just antecipating a possible "but she did do an ISO to explain the Bass vote" and saying it could have been something a baddie would do.

Bass and Nutella

Have I forgotten the deadline again?

I'm sticking with my original plan. Voting Bass and TCF.

But you're not expressing the confident arrogance and vigor that you usually express (not a criticism, just a description of your usual style). I'm not seeing that at all. Don't know if that is indicative of anything, but it doesn't sit right.

And that you deny that you're playing differently makes me feel worse about you.

...I still don't get what you're saying. What Bass vote? I was considering joining some other people in voting for Bass, but I decided to actually ISO him and when I did it turned out that I found little reason to actually suspect him, so I'm most likely not going to vote for him.

That's the civ point of view, the baddie point of view if that you were watching the wagon thinking if it was worth entering it, then fabricated an ISO to back down. Or maybe you are teammates with him.

I've had a baddie vibe on you all game, so I'm gonna bet on it.

Challenged accepted!

Let's go with Boomslang and Bullzeye. It'll be like a cowboy battle.

Ahh. Well, you're wrong. He very well could be bad, and I understand why it wouldn't look great for me if he is, but at this point I don't feel super confident in a vote for him.

Voting Caps Fan and Mac. Hopefully the next day cycle will have more conversation.

Why did you vote for me?

MacDougall wrote:Why did you vote for me?

Because, as I stated above, and you didn't respond to, you aren't playing like usual. That makes me suspect you.

LoRab wrote:

But Mac's usual style applies when he's bad too, so I'm not seeing the correlation.

I went ahead and voted TCF and Bass.

Maybe it's the antidepressants.

I voted for you as well. Hope that's ok. I don't find your suspicion of me genuine. You aren't trying.

And Luffy because of similar.

What with the Chatty Kathy massacre and all, I've decided to start poking around at some of our more silent players, starting with BWT. The biggest thing of note he's done is to come out with a soft defense of MP on Day 1.

This is his latest post:

birdwithteeth11 wrote:Alright. So I have still not caught up any more, and I am now about 15 pages behind. So I have 1 of 2 options:

1) Give up and ask to be replaced because I do not have the free time right now to read through the amount of posts I need to get through to catch up.

2) Start from scratch right now and build on from there.

And I'm going to try option #2. Soooooo....anyone got some Cliff Notes for what's happened so far?

That was 11 days ago.

My vote for him is as much a random shot in the dark as it is a call for him to get off his posterior.

And I'm gonna give another vote to CapsFan, hopefully third time's the charm.

DDL has certainly been aggrandizing, but at least he's posting. At this point, that's more civ like behavior than most people.

Alright, Caps and DDL I guess.

I went with DDL and Bass. I really don't see that Caps is bad.

I'm sorry.

I find ironic your dislike of people suspecting others because of style and then you suspecting me for the same. And also, your accusing me based on my finding suspicion in posts of players I suspect because I already suspect the, when you are, again, doing that here.

But, anyway, it feels off to me. So, I'm putting a vote in that direction.

It wouldn't be a game without you suspecting me so, sure. Also, I was away for a week and am catching up--not at all the same as not trying. And you are acting weird. And medication isn't a sensible reason for an entire posting pattern change. Meds don't change personalities.

Rey Was labored every day in his fields, hoping to be rewarded for his diligence. He knew Zhang Jiao would repay him kindly. Zhang Bao saw his work and thought he could make him work harder if he got his brother to make the weather hotter. Rey Was labored all day, and grew faint, and that is how he died.

This continues the evils the Yellow Turbans inflicted upon the peasants.

Who is a threat to the Han? Appoint two for the duel.

So guys... Who is in for another round of "DDL voted for me now I need revenge" ?

RIP Rey and sorry Caps.

Didn't realize we'd have to wait another day... frankly I wish we hadn't because the days/deadlines would have worked out better for me the way they were due to my schedule later this week, but oh well.

linki: Mata! I feel like I haven't seen her around in ages.

Bass is probably bad.

I don't trust Mac.

Doubling down on Bass. He was saved last day and that needs to be fixed.

Doubling down on Mac. I'm tired of him not even reading the posts accusing him. And going omgus on me after calling me a civ read multiple times early? Not classy, Mac.

Yes Im voting now. U mad? Come at me. If you guys wanna lynch me, let's make this fun.

This is war.

I think you're doing that thing where you're defending yourself because you think you've been caught in an illogical manner and that it's not fair.

I am not bad. I am an extremely important and busy businessman and such I have important accounts to close and documents to scan.

Excuse me, I have another email to draft and intern to sexually harass.

No I am doing that thing where I am a civ and don't have time to draft cases because I am too busy talking about the latest episode of Mr. Robot by the watercooler with my employees who have horrible nicknames for me behind my back.
