The Syndicate

Mac posted this day, but he sure is posting much less than expected after TH and the start of the game.

Is that a good sign, or a bad one? Is he tired of being bad and all the pressure that goes with it, or is that his usual civ MO? Anyone knows?

So Luke, if you're finished reading, what do you think of everything that's going on? Any thoughts? Who do you plan to vote for?

He's in the middle of a road trip and is having difficulty finding opportunities and even places to get online. For the record, I believe him, and find nothing suspicious about the varying quantities of his posts. The content of his posts, that's a bit more up in the air.

So here are my options:

1. MM, just because this seems like more than a pure case on Sorsha's behalf.

2. Floyd, for giving very weak explanations for his actions

3. Ninju, because I have to agree with both Matt's analysis of her posts and how she voted last day.

4. Eloh, because I find it so out of character for Eloh to go read all the players individually, like she claims to have done. I'm seeing a very different Eloh than the one I'm used to. Maybe it's a new thing, or I just haven't played enough games with her, but I just don't know how to cope with this


TH, what do you think?

Mac, where the hell have you been all day? Is there a silencer in the game? I think I saw Mac read the thread earlier. Has he posted at all since the day started? I need to go check

I was leaning Ninju, but after her recent post I think I want a little more time to think it over. I'm leaning toward a vote for Floyd right now. Sorsha's sureness re: MM means nothing to me, I don't even understand what the case on him is.

I guess I missed him saying that. I was just wondering what happened to him. Thanks.

I'm getting to the hangry point and I haven't even started cooking, and I used up my hungry energy on the last post/thought process, so this explanation will be piss-poor. My second ping that hasn't really changed, especially in the light of Zebra's flip, is sig, mostly for the reasons I said before (and similar reasons why I suspect Eloh regarding latching). So, I'll vote sig.

Do you still think Eloh is good? Did you not find her explanation of how she ended up voting for Ninju suspicious at all? First, it's the part where she allegedly went and read all the people individually. Can you recall a time she did that? It's Eloh.
Second, the fact she felt the need to say it at all, felt forced to me. Like she needed to make sure we all understood she came to this conclusion on her own, it's not because someone else said something, but because she was doing the work herself.

I'm seriously leaning Eloh, but I don't want to waste a vote.

The MM case, well, I don't think it's a case. If I'm wrong, I'll be very surprised, but if I'm right and Sorsha is on to him, she'll need a body guard during the night. Lynching him would educate us. Then again, maybe we shouldn't because it wouldn't be fair. And maybe, I have no idea what I'm talking about.


As for Floyd, he's a nice option, and maybe Eloh voted for Ninju to avoid voting Floyd or even MM. But it can't be that easy.

linki: Why vote Sig, who isn't getting any votes and not someone who might actually get votes. Seems like a coward vote that didn't make you look so good

Forget what I said Ninju, I fucked up. I thought you voted Sig and not Eloh. My bad

I would prefer a Floyd lynch as well, but I could go for an Elohcin lynch as well. I'm not sure about nijuukyugou while her day 1 vote was the same, I didn't like the reasoning and it seemed more as a fly by vote.

I believe Mac's reasons for not posting as much to be true as well.

linki: Nijuuk didn't you vote for zebra as well? I find that as being your main reason to vote for me suspicious she is know placing the first vote on me, but is once again following and latching onto other peoples argument much like she did with zebra.

FZ. wrote:Forget what I said Ninju, I fucked up. I thought you voted Sig and not Eloh. My bad

She did vote for me? Eloh voted for her.

For god's sake, I'm too tired Sorry

Re: Elo reading individual players, I don't think it's something she normally does but it doesn't mean she didn't do it. There have been plenty of easier vote options tossed around in the thread today, so I think her vote is genuine. I like to think I'm pretty good at reading her and I don't see a reason to be alarmed yet.

less than an hour until deadline. Need to decide

What does this even mean... YOU voted for Zebra. YOU latched onto Golden's case.

Marmot barely posted in this thread for days, and then suddenly appeared when people said it was suspicious. I don't think lynching him would be unfair - that's very odd behaviour for a marmot.

I don't agree that there have been easier votes. Ninju was quite absent, she didn't post much and I think it's a lot easier to latch on to that than it is to justify voting for a player that is high on the suspect list, because if you're bad, and that person turns out to be a civ, it's 2 civvies in a row you've helped lynch. So why not go with something less obvious?

Do you have a problem with my impeccable timing?

I don't really know who to vote for but I'm leaning towards voting for Mac, he hasn't done much at all recently and I don't know who else I should vote for.

Golden wrote:Marmot barely posted in this thread for days, and then suddenly appeared when people said it was suspicious. I don't think lynching him would be unfair - that's very odd behaviour for a marmot.

Do you think he's someone who would deliberately avoid the thread, as a civvie or a baddie? Maybe it is odd, but maybe it has nothing to do with his role.

I suppose you make a good point. I understand if you're suspicious of her. I'm just not.

Speak of the devil.

Floyd. Vote for Floyd.

If I'm not going with Eloh, I could go with MM. What's your opinion of Eloh? You said that if zebra 1 comes out civ, you might change your opinion on Eloh. Did you?

What about Floyd?


Linki: Luke, if you go by who hasn't done much lately, there are plenty of people to lynch before Mac. What about Banana, Drac and some others? Does low posting equal being bad in your opinion? If that's the case, does it mean you're bad too?

MM
His most recent posts are so baseless.

Fair enough. I wonder if I should trust your judgement on her or go with my suspicion.


As much as I'm considering voting Floyd, there's a part of me thinking he's the easy lynch here

What's that supposed to mean? What about your posts?

Okay right know I'm most likelty voting for Floyd but could vote for Elohcin or Nijju

FZ what do you think about Nijju and that Elohcin voted for her?

a2thezebra wrote:Floyd. Vote for Floyd.

You seem so motivated. Why?
Linki: FZ? Seriously? Have a read over his past 15 posts.

TheFloyd73 wrote:MM

I don't like this post especially since Floyd has been so absent this game.

I'll be voting for Floyd this phase

I don't know who to vote for and I might just vote for someone who isn't going to get lynched, I don't want to miss two votes in a row.

Per the underline, I 100% agree with this. I feel like Sorsha knows something, and if SVS is right in that Sorsha never acts like this as a baddie, then I'm inclined to go that way.

Golden's point about MM not being around (despite him just showing up) even though he's been on the site is interesting too.

I'd rather vote for Turnip today, and I'm still lookin' at Golden and the Zeebs, but I want to see what happens when MM is lynched.

Metalmarsh

Linki - Luke, vote MM! Let's see what happens!

Not really, but her vote for ninja just then pinged me and that's the first time I've begun to feel like others might be right about her.

I'm voting Floyd for my own longevity.

I'm going to quickly re-read over some posts and see if anything pops out at me

sig wrote:Okay right know I'm most likelty voting for Floyd but could vote for Elohcin or Nijju

FZ what do you think about Nijju and that Elohcin voted for her?

I think Eloh is bad, but I don't really know Eloh's game that well, and TH keeps saying he doesn't see her as bad. Right now, not sure what to make of TH saying he's good at reading Eloh. If he's right, and Eloh is good, Ninju could be bad. But I'm not ready to go that way yet. I still don't know why she switched to you after saying she'll vote for Eloh, so I can't rule out them working together either.

I honestly don't know


linki: Thanks Luke.
Linki 2: Matt, I guess I can agree

linki infinity: MM, what about defending yourself? Anything you want to say?

Blooper tried to vote for Elo after Elo voted for her. Her vote for sig, "in light of the Zebra 1.0 flip" as she puts it, is completely hypocritical.

The poll is about to end so I'm just going to vote for banana, he's only posted once and I don't know who to vote for, don't take this personally banana.

Turnip Head wrote:Blooper tried to vote for Elo after Elo voted for her. Her vote for sig, "in light of the Zebra 1.0 flip" as she puts it, is completely hypocritical.

Hypocritical doesn't make you bad. If you're a baddie who voted for a civ, would you really vote for another player who voted for that civ and risk looking really bad? Or would you try to take a different road?

MM, what do you think about Eloh? What do you think about Floyd?

MM isn't even trying to find baddies at the moment. He's voting for survival, but not doing anything to get to the truth. Doesn't make you look good MM

FZ. wrote:linki infinity: MM, what about defending yourself? Anything you want to say?

Don't vote for me?

I read through the accusations. I have been accused of having BTSC. I have been accused of being too jokey. I have been accused of being not jokey enough. I can't defend against these.

I understand I haven't been involved in this game very much, so my loss isn't the worst thing in the world.

I know it doesn't, so I guess I just need more content from her, but she makes that difficult when she only briefly pops in and then disappears until the next deadline. I feel like regardless of her role Blooper isn't paying careful attention to her actions. Does she even remember she voted for Zebra?

FZ. wrote:MM, what do you think about Eloh? What do you think about Floyd?

I don't have a qualm with either of these two players, but I can take a look.

Who do you think is bad?

Do you have BTSC?

But he's doing it so blatantly that I'm less inclined to be suspicious because I don't see any deceit in his posts. If he was bad I think he would be showing more pressure.

*channels her inner Mac*

I'm just letting everyone know. If MM isn't lynched today I'll be voting for him every single day until one of us are dead. (in this game only though MM)

Possibly. I'm trying to figure out his reaction as well. If he says his loss is not that important, does it tell us anything?

linki: Can you see a way you could be wrong about him Sorsha?

I voted MM. I wouldn't want Sorsha to tunnel.
