Well that would drive me batty.
I wish I knew how to convince you people I'm not bad. Does it even make sense I would be on a team with Epignosis? I've thought he was bad since about Day 2. And he was trying to steer people towards me Day 3.

Since there is a theory that Vomp is voting TH becasue TH is the Millionaire (not a theory I subscribe to, tbh, like at all, I think it's a horrible theory) I suggest we lynch Vompatti. And see how that works out for us. Or maybe we could lynch me. Then you could see that what I have been selling is true, and then maybe you could look for real baddies.
But really, I would like to start with Vomp.

I feel like it's something I've seen in a game before... a baddie killing the very Civvie that trusted them the most as a way to trick the other Civvies.

Vompatti plays intentionally inscrutably to a degree that I have difficulty understanding. I've been sitting here thinking about your question for a little while now, and my current conclusion is that I'd have to see a Vompatti win in order to understand his gameplay. If this kind of thing works to help him win as a Civvie or a baddie, then maybe I'd understand, but from what I have seen, it usually just gets him suspected and lynched. I can't say for sure what he is. Maybe he got a rolechecking item and has known TH is a baddie since Night 1, and this is how he shows us. Maybe he's a baddie trying to maintain a narrow line of unsureness among the voting majority.And what of Vompatti? I'm interested in your opinion.
I just don't understand you, man. I want to. People were pushing for you to be our ambassador, to be our Champions Game nominee. I didn't understand if they were joking or not... maybe you have an impressive history of wins under your belt that I'm simply ignorant of, I can only go off the limited experience I've had with you. You seem to give purposely enigmatic answers to most questions. Help me out here, tell me what your angle is maybe?Vompatti wrote:Thanks for the overwhelming support.

Do you not have anything to say about the rest of my post? I wish someone could explain to me where the other three baddies voted if both Zomb and Vomp are bad and got so many votes each. In my opinion, it makes more sense that some of the people responsible for the Vomp case would be baddies trying to save Zomb. Epi even voted Vomp to tie it up! Why would he have deliberately created a tie between two of his teammates? Surely it would have been better for him to put the final nail in Zomb's coffin?LizKeen wrote:Bullzeye wrote:His posts are the usual Vompatti stuff.LizKeen wrote:Ok, what is it about Vompatti's post that you're finding civvie?Bullzeye wrote:Being useful and being a civvie are two entirely different things though.

What about the other players who DO care about winning? Players who are on your team? Seems like a really poor and selfish attitude to have. If this were a baseball team, and you were the guy that "didn't care about winning", so you do a funny dance while the ball is in play instead of trying to throw or catch it... your team would get pretty upset that you hurt their chances of winning, and they'd have a pretty darn valid point.Vompatti wrote:I don't care about winning, therefore I play the way I feel like playing regardless of my role.Long Con wrote:I just don't understand you, man.

Maybe you should just follow along with games and make non-player comments along the way instead of playing them?
Can you refresh these for me? The cases on TH and I? The TH thing is "maybe Vomps is voting for him cause he's the Missionaire & Vomps is giving him power", yes?

Your reactions this very day have been very interesting as well, to be honest.
Sorry for the change in tense, that should be:I am not sure why you are pushing this.I am not sure why the baddies have acted as they have; it isn't like any of the people they NKed after BR 1.0 have done anything but participate, or lead, civ lynches, lol. Even if perhaps not intentionally. I would have expected a case to have been made on DP~ he wold have been an easy lynch. Why NK him? Or Splints? Especially right after you silenced her the day after she led a lynch on a civ. Were they hoping it would look like she self silenced? Are they hoping it looks like TH self silenced?

Shouldn't it be obvious that I don't think TH is Vomp's teammate? I mean, if I don't think Vomp is bad, then I shouldn't think he has teammates should I? Seems kinda obvious to me, but then I seem to be one of the few people who can pick up on the obvious in this thread. I don't think TH is bad either, for the record. To be honest, I'm sort of wondering about DF now. I feel like his last post was just an echo of everything I've been saying, I need to reread him but I do kinda feel like he's just jumping in, echoing a few sentiments, and jumping back out.

thellama73 wrote:How Items Work
Some items can be used to confer benefits, some cannot. Some items will be consumed when used, some will not. Most items can be stolen. When someone is lynched, all of the items they possess go to the people who voted for them, in order. So the first vote gets the first item, etc. When someone is NKed, whoever performed the kill gets the item. Items may not be voluntarily traded between players.
Transfer and traded are two different things. So I would say it could be possible for a teammate to give an item to put in the safe.
I'm baffled as to why the stock certificate would start a fire. Why would anyone want to burn stock? Unless the stock market crashes.
I'm off to bed but I hope tomorrow doesn't find the whole city burned down.
Thought you'd just been reading my posts? :P Yeah, I still think Liz is bad. I just can't add up a bunch of things she's said with the idea she's civ. I think your latest point is quite interesting too. As far as the Vomp thing is concerned, it's not a battle I care too much about and I'm not going to waste much effort since he's not interested in defending himself, but I still think that when you look at all the factors from day 3, he probably isn't bad. How do you feel about that? Is there anyone else you're looking at?Metalmarsh89 wrote:I don't blame you, I need to do some studying as well.![]()

Possibly, yes.Long Con wrote:Interesting point on Lizkeen, Metalmarsh! It's like she knew that a baddie or Celestial had the Safe, isn't that right?
This is the one post from LizKeen that made me feel good about her at the time. This seemed like a civilian thing to say. I guess the baddies could have concocted this idea to help steer the suspicion away from Zomba on Day 2, and that still might be the case, if LizKeen is bad.LizKeen wrote:Well that was quick, I like a host who's on it
I'm guessing SVS's will wasn't stolen because they were too busy stealing my ear tubes. But not before I overheard something. I don't know much but my advice today would be: Zombarella - be very careful who you put your vote on today. And everyone should be on the lookout for easy lynches.
I hope I was allowed to say all that. I only confirmed that I could say the tubes were stolen.
Also- RIP BR
And those pictures are great!
Paragraph 1: Thinking back on this, LizKeen seems to be implying that she wants to know what happens if the Celestials get said items. In my opinion, the Celestials are not a threat to the civlians. This could be speculation from a baddie perspective, to whom the Celestials do pose a threat.LizKeen wrote:Mr. Fung, do you know if the ivory, jade and amber would be dangerous if they were in the hands of the wrong team?
Is there usually this much requoting in Syndicate games? I'm really wondering if it's a mafia tactic just to be a massive distraction. If so then you're doing well.
I'm assuming that Golden has been silenced because I can't imagine him being this quiet for this long given his day one posts. I'm rather bummed if that's the case because I was interested to hear what he had to say. I feel he would have at least commented on my previous post because everyone else seems to be ignoring it. I would expect that from mafia but not everyone can be that. Granted it wasn't a super helpful post but no comments at all? Really? Except Zomberella heeding my warning.
I'm going back and re-reading (a task I dread) everyone bf was suspicious of so he won't have died in vain. The mafia would have most definitely wanted him so and I'd say there's at least one if not more of you in those 8 votes. Black Rock is off the hook obviously and I'm giving Zomb the benefit of the doubt now so that at least narrows it down to 6 for me.
I think if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's probably a goose. (No reference to Mongoose/Sophie intended)
Noteworthy: At this point, near the end of Day 2, SVS, rabbit, Long Con, and Vompatti are LizKeen's top suspects.LizKeen wrote:No, before. I put it out there because as I no longer have it that is probably the most useful info I will have.

I have been rereading since my last post and had several posts I had quoted and commented on up to page 15 and then screwed up and lost it all.I'll have to start again tomorrow.
Based on what I had reread I would say my current suspicions are SVS, rabbit, LongCon and Vompatti. But I'll have to go into that further tomorrow because it's really late and I'm tired.
LizKeen introduces a theory that SVS and I could be bad.LizKeen wrote:But didn't you just ask me to do that earlier? When I decided to focus on SVS and leave rabbit, LC and Vomp til later? (I'm going to wait until after the lynch to make that post because it may lead me in new directions) It appears that MP is seeing some of the things I was seeing. MM could be bad, I'm just a little scared to put a vote there since I know (and said in an earlier post) that the mafia was going to go after an easy lynch today. On the other hand I previously said it looked like SVS was trying to avert lynching MM and if she would turn out to be bad then it would seem she's trying to help a teammate. Whichever way MM flips is going to be very telling.
Then after the lynch, says she would not have voted for me. I realize hindsight is 20/20, but I prefer honesty over "looking correct", and I think civilians should in general.LizKeen wrote:I'm so very sorry I missed today. My kids are on spring break and I was just epically busy today and I left without my cell phone so I missed the vote. TBH, I'm not sure how I would have voted as anything I said about SVS doesn't seem to hold water with anyone else but at the same time I warned about an easy lynch target so I wouldn't have voted MM either. I've spent the last 2+ hours just catching up on today and making notes.

So it is possibly someone else, but likely LC or TH. Both usually post overnight, so we should know soonish. I also wonder if TH could have been silenced, since Epi was insanified. They both had a similar suspicion. I would guess either they are protecting Liz with an implied frame or actually framing Liz.
The post in the NP about the will also leads me to be more leery of Zomba. This post intrigues me immensely. After I read it, I PMed the host to double check that I had the will. And I did. So either it is another will or...
I have a theory that the person who was supposed to be NKed may have been me since the killer is supposedly in possession of the will in that message; had I died, the BB of Bremen WOULD have had the will. The baddies can't steal items, they have to kill for them. Now there is not a gossip/message to the thread type role. So it must be a function of the Doctor, or of Gilchrist. Who is the person the message purports to be the writer of the will.
I really, really doubt Llama would allow Gilchrist to make this post, if it is his power, since a PLAYER name has been attached to the will. So I think this is a message from the baddies, tbh. The main sticking point here is that how would they know the real Gilchrist would not say, "SHENANIGANS!!!"
Have not figured that out yet.
LizKeen wrote:MM, that's why I kept saying to be careful.
And Epi being insanified I would guess is a ploy to make me look bad. Possibly cooked up by him and his teammates.
