The Syndicate

too old to party, but a long weekend sounds fine to me

Since bad things can happen at night, I'm going to put my current thoughts in the thread.

MP- keeps bringing up Epig as a Boddy suspect, but then gets very easily dissuaded. Sounds like he doesn't really mean what he is saying, like its just for effect. Also hinted at being a certain role, no one has challenged it.

Epig- sounds like he really means it when he says he wants to win as a civ, but a key part of winning as a civ is making sure the civ team outnumbers the baddies. Yet, when it's time to vote, he's quite careless and slaphappy about it. It feels a little contrived, but I don't know when he's being honest and when he isn't.

MR- too quiet for comfort, (possibly sick?) I have nothing against him but I don't see anything that makes him appear civvie either.

Mongoose- cryptic and I never can get a read on her

Vomps- whimsical as always, no way will he give anything away. Circumstantial- missed a vote on a night when a kill was expected

Bass- respect for not giving away his role before the votes were in, and then only when pushed. Could have been a bluff, but no one challenged it.

I think that's everyone.

The lack of response to Bass's claim is odd. I can't stop thinking about how there were 2 swapped lynches, but only 1 of those makes sense based on what I know.

That's a good point. If the votes were close on one of those days, it might have just appeared to be a switch. Is it the cook who can add or subtract points? I don't know, I'll go back and look at those days and compare.

There were not 2 swapped lynches. I'm pretty sure I know how the other one happened.

I have no idea what kipling is so thats the why I voted the way I did.

2 "mis-lynches" may seem like a better description.

MP: Would you mind if I asked which you feel differently about? If not, it's okay.

Can you re-word your question, MR? Not sure what you're asking.

Yeah, no prob and sorry. Which lynch was the "other one" you referred to?

Mister Rearranger wrote:Yeah, no prob and sorry. Which lynch was the "other one" you referred to?

Well, Bass mentioned he switched the lynch from me to Blooper, so the one on D2 where Blooper had 4 votes and S~V~S had 2 was the other "switch" I was referring to.

At least I was PRETTY sure why that one happened. I suppose I could be wrong.

Hmm, okay.

Conversely, Nijii to SVS almost positively had to be a switch in my eyes. The one I wasn't sure about is the one you survived. Then again, prizes of some sort could have factored in. It by no means condemns Bass in a de-facto way.

This is getting tiresome.

Well now I have a lead Boddy suspect, at least.

On the downside, Wadsworth is still alive so I was wrong about Canuck.

Mister Rearranger wrote:Well now I have a lead Boddy suspect, at least.

Yes? Do tell. Because I have one fewer.

Bass is still the frontrunner for me. It's possible that the Chief was among Eloh/Canuck, but I'm still hesitant what with the possibility that there were prizes to influence previous mis-lynches.

I'm unsure of Mata, but Boddy was around enough to blackmail SVS, right? Idk about any Boddy blackmail other than that or MP.

So, Wadsworth gets to kill every night now? Or was my count off?

MP is not the role I thought he was, because he's a male role (I had forgotten that). Back to the drawing board.

Bass might have lied or not?

I trust MP even if he doesn't trust me.

Bass...I have to think about him. And MR.

Being a conspiracy theorist, this quote appeals to me:

For undemocratic reasons and for motives not of State,
They arrive at their conclusions—largely inarticulate.
Being void of self-expression they confide their views to none:
But sometimes in a smoking-room, one learns why things were done.

This is the quote I choose. I love asking question about anything and everything I dont know about.

I keep six honest serving men (they taught me all i knew); Theirs names are What and Why and When And How And Where and Who.

The world is very lovely, and it's very horrible - and it doesn't care about your life or mine or anything else.

I trust Epi immensely. Mongoose, possibly. Not sure who else... :/

“We're all islands shouting lies to each other across seas of misunderstanding.”

Seems fitting for a mafia game.

Does anyone think it might be worthwhile to go ahead and lynch wads worth instead of Boddy? That's assuming that everyone is in agreement about who Wadsworth is. Or do you think Boddy will get to pick up the nightly kills, if Wadsworth is gone?

I am fine either way. I simply have a vested interest in eliminating Boddy first, and he's one of two people.

Wadsworth is murkier territory for me, I am afraid.

Epi, what are you thinking?

Personally I think we should vote for someone who could be Boddy OR Wadsworth, or if that's not possible then Boddy, then Wadsworth. At least get something accomplished.

You're not a Luddite, are you? I mean, somehow you're posting here.

My spreadsheet allows for five people to be Wadsworth logically speaking. That's not particularly helpful, I realize. Both Bass and MR are on the list, for what it's worth, and one of those two is Boddy.

LOL, no.

I thought Wadsworth was eliminated to less before, or am I wrong there? Did you revise it?

Isn't Mata a possibility for both too or are you not considering her?

Frankly, the fact that Wadsworth tried to kill you AGAIN last night tells me that player isn't paying enough attention.

I should have kept a spreadsheet for this game myself. Dammit.

I am telling you what my spreadsheet says on the most conservative level. Allowing for certain assumptions, however, I have it down to three. Those assumptions are: 1. Bass didn't throw sabie under the bus, and 2. sabie didn't vote for her own teammate.

Matahari is making too much sense this late in the game for me to question her intentions.

Boddy= Bass or MR

Wadsworth = Boogs, Vompatti, or Mongoose (assumptions allowing)

Who would try to murder me twice?

Oh, okay, I thought it was three, so I got it now.

Good question, but out of those I'd lean Vompatti. He replaced in and seems most likely to not have been paying close enough attention.

Do you trust Mongoose?

Epignosis wrote:Do you trust Mongoose?

I don't know. So, I suppose by default, no.

I just have no idea what to make of her this game, honestly.

I had a civilian role in mind for her, but she says things that don't make sense with that role. I don't know.

Wadsworth tried to kill. Presumably, he can't kill for a while now. I think taking out Boddy is still advisable. And easiest, because it's either Bass or MR.

We tried Bass, and he survived. That fits with the Chief or Boddy. If Bass IS the Chief and already used his switch, then it was incredibly wasteful of him.

Huh. Just thought of something. Remember I said that Bass fucked up my spreadsheet? That may not be true. What I believed and what he claims happened could both be true.

Anyway, if we try him again, and he's the Chief, then he dies. I propose we lynch MR. If MR is Boddy, then he'll survive and we know to immure him, Poe style. If he is not Boddy, then Bass is.

A little "witch hunty," I know, but them's the breaks.

I feel about trying to lynch Bass again since it seems he makes more sense as the Chief though.

feel bad*

MovingPictures07 wrote:I feel about trying to lynch Bass again since it seems he makes more sense as the Chief though.

My view was that the Cook was involved, but if the Chief switched the lynch, the Cook couldn't do diddly shit about that, no matter how good the food was.

I am willing to go down the MR road.

I wasn't reading MR as Boddy, but it seems to be the best option I suppose. I'd be willing to try it too, worst case it's wrong and it REALLY is Bass, right?

You were reading me as Boddy, so no, pardon me if I am not interested in your reads.

But if it's not MR or Bass, I'll take the rope and hang my own damn self in the kitchen.

Fair enough. :P

I can vote MR.

I'll cast the first stone I guess. Again, we're expecting a no lynch if this is correct. Voting MR.

Me too. I hope it's right.

Yay bandwagon!

Wow, just like when I went away for a moment in Monty Python. Seriously guys?

I was so damn close. Epi, you said you were shooting for your first civvie win on TS. This could have been my first win ever here, and I was hoping we could share that. I answered every ridiculous matter of semantics that was brought against me for simply participating while Bass shrugged off all your suspicions nonchalantly. I in no way thought I was in danger of being lynched this time around. Totally baffled, especially with another 24 hours left.

Good luck to Wadsworth; whoever you are you fooled me at least.

Or no hard feelings good luck everyone as usual and lovely game Llama. I really enjoyed it and you are a wonderful host.

So I thought there were more votes on me...

SVS was The Motorist?! I miswrote her in my notes holy shit.

My entire reason I thought I could trust Epi all of a sudden was based on a stupid mistake I made.

Any possibility that you could say who you thought SVS was?
