The Syndicate

Amongst the deaths of a hosts, as well as River, there was much chaos and confusion amongst everyone involved. Many fingers were pointed and accusations made, but all agreed they were much too tired and would decide on further action in the morning. Some, however, would not come to see that next morning unfortunately.

One of the Daleks, restless at not having murdered any sentient non-Dalek beings for well over 24 hours, was thirsty for some blood. He snuck out of his waiting chamber late at night and was patrolling down a corridor, looking for something, anything to blast. The first few doors he tried were locked. The first door he managed to open, however, happened to have Turnip Head inside. Turnip Head's last unfortunate moment involved him being awoken by someone bashing down his door and crying out, "EX-TER-MIN-AAAAAAATE!"

The Dalek wasn't the only being still awake. The Master was lying in his bed, completely unable to sleep. A faint drumming noise he had been able to block out earlier had now increased in volume inside his head, and he couldn't ignore it anymore. As he descended into madness, he knew that only one thing would help calm him down. He too left his room and began wandering random corridors. In the thread today, dedicate one post to your hosts. Say something really nice about each of them! The first person he stumbled upon was Mister Rearranger, returning from a bathroom break. MR never noticed it as someone creeped up slowly behind him with a knife, as was literally torn to pieces from how fiercely his adversary hacked and slashed and stabbed. After all that was left was a bloody pile of goo, The Master simply stood there, with a great big, evil smile on his face. All he was concerned about was the fact that the drumming sound was gone.

The Doctor was awoke suddenly, and noticed his hands were glowing. He suddenly had an idea. A great idea in fact. But, would it work? Would he know who to trust? Of course he would, he thought to himself. I'm a bloody genius after all! Knowing his plans for the following day, he drifted off back to sleep, satisfied that he had a rather cunning plan to catch those dasterdly Daleks and Cybermen. And possibly find The Master.

Turnip Head has been killed by the Daleks
Mister Rearranger has been killed by The Master.

It is now Day 2. You have approximately 50 1/2 hours to decide who to lynch.

That's all I know.

Still, if you signed up, have some fucking respect, yes? birdwithteeth is a lazy sack of shit. He acts like he likes prog, but that's horsewithteeth shit. He likes Devin Townsend, who just smashes strings and makes ugly faces. Give this "host" something to do. Okay? Fucker doesn't even cut his hair. And bea drinks. A lot. Maybe more than me. Fail to vote this time, and I hope she smashes an empty vodka bottle over your head. And then draws a dick on your face.

God bless you two.

Voted Enrique. Not changing this time.

Thanks! I needed that. Like a lot. I love that you leave the maybe in there.

The hosts are great, and I'm really sorry I didn't start contributing sooner. The stories and nicknames they come up with are very creative!

Anyway, I don't really have much to say right now that others haven't said earlier. Right now MP and Enri and zeek all seem fairly innocent to me, although zeek's insistence on going to a specific planet did seem a bit strange. At least if the planet ends up killing all civs or something we can probably assume he was evil.

New to the game: is it possible that one of the baddies has the power to silence someone for a day/night? MP has been pretty quiet lately.

Now, as to my thoughts.... DFaraday's voting seemed weird. Why? Because I am fairly certain he is a big Dr. Who fan, so I can't see why he would have treated it in such an offhand manner. If I had been around to see that initial vote of his for Azure, I would have probably changed my vote based entirely upon that.

To zeek who bashed people for choosing Azure because they like the color blue... Come on man, if you know nothing about Dr. Who, you would be relying entirely on someone else's guidance for which option, which an possibly open you up to manipulation. So you can either choose randomly for whatever half ass reason you come up with (like I did) because you have no info and don't feel like trying to wrap your brain around the various Wikipedia descriptions of each planet, or you try to understand what the Whovians are saying about each one and hope you are not taking the advice of a Baddie. Six one way, half a dozen the other. If you don't like it and want to call me irresponsible, be my guest. Seems to be par for the course in this game.

I was surprised by the recently deceased. Not who I would have expected.

Bea, if I had a rum and coke right now I would totally drink to you because, you know, you're awesome and stuff. Even with a cactus stuck to your rear. And David, props to you for writing a post when you have to be up to be at work and three freaking o'clock in the morning. Love you guys!

Enrique wrote:My post explains why I think the way I do... we have a big list of civvies, a big list of Daleks, and a big list of Cybermen (and an indie role). There are 3 more players than there are roles, so we know there's some roles missing. It's just my interpretation, which I'm not trying to force on anyone, that the remaining roles are probably their own faction and not in any of the existing ones. Think about it. Why have "Dalek #1" and "Dalek #2" with secret powers instead of just naming one of then "Davros?"

Now what the hell are you smoking? I was away for a few minutes reading about the Time Lords, and tbh I really should be sleeping considering it's 5am and I have plans for noon. But Jesus Christ the reactions I get sometimes..

One thing I noticed on Enrique was that he and Dana seemed to be backing each other up a lot early on (Day 0?).

I know they know each other pretty well outside of mafia, so I just attributed it to that, but it might still be worth mentioning/looking into.

Otherwise Dana doesn't seem to have done anything very mafia-like, as far as I can tell.

You think zeek was overly confrontational? No, I'm actually taking Dana's side here. MP came out of nowhere guns blazing based on very little. Maybe he's onto something; it is weird that zeek would omit the Doctor's regeneration like that, but is it really to the baddies' benefit? He could've easily just not thought of that. It's still weird that MP would make such a huge spectacle out of it.

To be honest I don't think a baddie would've lashed out like that without knowing that he'd be put in the spotlight. I don't see MP as bad, just chill, dude

I don't see anyone attempting to push a zeek lynch. Enrique found something that he thought was odd, commented on it (like you did, even though you weren't serious?) and got an answer. I'm not too sure what the issue is here. Though I also don't think someone who's bad would bring so much attention on themselves so early on, so for now, I think both you and Enrique are good.

I do think it WOULD have been a weird thing to slip on, if it were a slip. It WAS suspicious when there wasn't the information that he could have known about "supatown". Now that the information has been brought here to the thread, I don't think there's anything too weird going on. It seems like he had accepted the explanation, and then when questioned, was explaining why he thought it was suspicious before. That doesn't mean he still thought it was suspicious at the time he said that.

I'm not trying to incriminate you, I'm sorry if it seemed that way. Like I said before, I think you're good for right now. I just want us all to be friends!

MP attacked him about it, like Zeek was trying to tell half the story, but I don't think that was too valid, since Zeek literally mentioned The Doctor in the same sentence. So, siding with Zeek on that one.

I just find it strange people like Snow Dog pop in to say, nah, I don't care, I refuse to post on-topic, and then disappear.

I would guess that MR may have been killed by someone not who sent in the kill, and possibly voted, fairly early, and did not really come back before the end. MRs drive by vote was so odd, and he could not have been silenced. It was mentioned several times,mostly by me, but still.

Also wanted to mention this. The role says SOME of the statements are false, which is to say, I guess it could be more than one? Becasue obviously at least one of these two statements is false:

The Valeyard is a role
The Valeyard is not a role

So that tells us nothing. The other statement I dunno. I think Jim the Fish would be a civvie role, or neutral role, since both River & the Dr seem to recall him fondly while diary synching. BUT it has been my thought that both BWT & Bea played in a game of MPs that had an entire secret team, Avant 1. I know Bea was on it, not sure if BWT was. If they had 2 extra secret roles, I can see 2 indies. But if they had 3, they might have made a secret team. So not sure if I think this is even a role. I also don't see the hosts giving blatant info like that to K9. But, of course, just speculation.

I think we have 2 false, one true. And we cannot tell which it is, lol. If the bit about the Valeyard being a role is true, then my theory about a secret team is probably wrong, as the Valeyard would be an Indy. Unless the Valeyard is something that can happen to the Dr himself. So all in all, I think K9s info does not help much. He's still a good doggie, though
