The Syndicate

Elemental Mafia has begun!

This is a Last Man Standing game. You will vote to lynch someone each day. Each day, also, you will choose another player, in order to draw upon their Elemental Power to fuse with your own. That choice is PMed to Black Rock and Long Con before the lynch is over. Miss the PM and you may be out of luck.

There will be only one winner. Unless that changes.

Long time no see, everyone. Is this just basically a check in? I will post in in the FB thread.

What's up!? What's up!? So glad to be back here!

If you forget and are confused please PM your hosts.

Fun

Yay, we are back baby!

Sweeeeet let's do this

And we're back.

But my old "view yer posts" link is broken.

Yeah I don't think we have the in-topic button yet, but you can click someone's post count to see all their posts and filter by subforum, or you can search the thread and filter by author

Does this mean we can't vote for JaggedJimmyJay ?

So I guess I won.

heeey the site is back up

Greetings.

Appropriate soundtrack for this game:

yey

Whoever *doesn't* check in certainly makes it easier on the rest of us deciding who to vote for.

I like Earth, Wind & Fire Walk With Me.

Oh, I heard Long Con had been banned. Apparently not.

I have had one of the worst days and weekends, and to have this starting almost made me cry tears of joy. Maybe not joy. Maybe, tears of 'omg there is actually something normal in my life'. Which means that I think you guys are normal. Which means my sense of reality has really gone to shit.

Hey everyone just found out this started so just stopping by to say what's up. So glad the site is up and running!!

Oh, hey, I was out of town for the weekend.

Are we really back? YAY!

I'll be your Moderator on Duty for this game. If at any point you're feeling frustrated, angry, or otherwise bothered, please feel free to send me a PM (and if by chance you're having issues with the PM function here, you can also find me on Discord with the same username). It's nice to have a game running here again after the hiatus, and I think it'll be fun for y'all. Black Rock and Long Con always go the extra mile.

I'm kinda bothered that you aren't playing, my dear friend

I've never played anything like this before so please don't get frustrated with me if I lose my way...

A few miles outside outside the bustling city of Syndicate, deep in the thickly-forested foothills of Mount Cerberus, there was a small cabin. Few knew the path that led to the cabin, and that was the way that the alchemist, Mediocrates, wanted it. He had built the cabin at this specific location, not for the tranquility of the woods, and not for the isolation, though that was nice. Mediocrates had chosen this site for the spacious cave system upon whose entrance the cabin sat.

Within the caves, the alchemist had built his laboratory, piece by piece. Glass beakers and tubes of all shapes and sizes were arranged on the many tables, casting strange, flickering shadows on the cave walls in the light of many candles and burners, and the phosphorescent glow of several liquids.

Mediocrates shuffled around the circular table at the centre of his underground laboratory, looking again over the pure elements that he had painstakingly gathered over the last few months. The time had finally come for his experiment to begin. This, he thought, this will be my greatest achievement... my life's work! Finally, they shall respect the name of Mediocrates!

The alchemist began to carefully mix tiny portions of the elements together, leaning close in order to bear true witness to the wonders before him. The sights, the sounds, the peculiar smells... he breathed deeply, and his eyes widened, pupils expanding until they left no trace of his pale green iris at all. His mouth dropped open, gaping in awe and wonder.

He. Could. See. It. All.

Before his eyes, the table seemed to expand, and the elements took on a life of their own. Fickle Fire danced around a cloud of haughty Psionic energy, sinister Darkness slithered and slid across stubborn Metal's smooth surface, as one of the shining samples of Holy he had been able to obtain floated just above the table's surface, serene and pure.

The elements began to speak, to interact, taking on a life more real than Mediocrates' own humble existence. It was all he could do to sit and watch, silently chronicling their tale...

Just a friendly reminder that the site may be back, but I highly doubt changeable polls are still a thing.

I am so excited to play, you guys don't even know!

Edit: Good reminder. I haven't checked if that is a standard feature or not in this version. Our polls are still limited at the moment, I am going to search for a good validated extension for them tomorrow. Hopefully we can rectify it before long. Until then we won't see who voted for what option and when, so you probably should be declaring your votes in thread when you place them.

Were you able to set it for changeable votes then?

Changeable votes are up and running but it is not showing who voted where. Until this is rectified no vote will count unless stating in thread when it is made.

Votes are changeable
Marmot isn't here...

So, I'll be marmot.

I randomised and I'm voting Dom or being shifty, k?

FOR being shifty. FFS.

I can confirm votes are changeable.

@ Long Con: That was one damn fine Intro post you have there... made me feel like I was right in that cave witnessing all that was happening...

Oh, you haven't played a Long Con/Black Rock game yet, huh!

The masters of mythology. The prodigies of prose. The stars of storytelling.

My posts in this thread make it sound like I'm on drugs.

It's the natural high I am getting from this site being back.

Or maybe I don't? A No Lynch option might not have been my first choice had the site not been sucked into hell itself, but I think it might prove to be a useful way to right the ship. And it would allow time for loyalties to form. And you guys know how I love it when loyalties are formed.
