The Syndicate

Hmm, now there are two threads I can post in. Should I stay here, or head over there? What a dilemma.

You could always suspect me. Everyone else has.

Well, in any case, I am really glad they got rid of DH. He was a fairly obvious bad actor.

This looks suspiciously unlike Penn's Grove...

That I am the greatest.

The host clarification is in that thread as well. I totally forgot that people might not know what happened till I was looking at my notes.

I'm guessing the lack of talking about it is a combo of people not knowing or people thinking everyone else knows it.

I assumed everyone else knew it, since it was brought up a couple of times in Wilmington.

Day 1
BWT fought Aces, BWT won, Aces was seriously injured

Unfurl fought DisgruntledPorcupine and killed him.

Day 3
INH fought SVS and won. SVS was not seriously injured.

Thanks - IDK if it was brought up or not yet here as well, but back in the Penn's Grove thread, we found out that seriously injured players can not post/vote for the next day and night cycle while they heal.

@ MR. I did not notice the new choice - good eye.

Looks like we're thinning the crowd for more fights at a time.

My worry is thta everyone in all towns will be excited by the new choice and all go there. Sounds too crowded for my liking. I will probably still go to Penn's Grove where it is likely to be very empty and peaceful.

Oooh, I didn't see that either. That is tempting.

bea wrote:Any particular reason why Penn's Grove? Are only your traveling buddies allowed to go with you? I can't decided if I want to catch back up on Willmington or go check out DC as it's the only thread I've not been in yet.

I haven't been there yet and I have gaps in my records from there. (I don't know who won between Johns and Russti.) Everyone is, course, welcome to come with me, but I am reluctant to abandon my companions, since we agreed to travel together.

Good luck to both fighters!

I'd like to head over to Penn's Grove. Will my traveling buddies Roxy and unfurl go with me?

Roxy wrote:Ni - I was wanting a tie and was so glad you evened it up.
I had a tiny theory that maybe if you receive more votes than your opponent then you win - I do not believe it to be true bc of the way other fights have gone.

Long Con had way more votes than me, and I whupped him good.

Thanks

What I get from this is that you don't find our past rivalries as funny as I apparently do. That's okay. I take a different viewpoint from you, in that I think it will be easier to get along if we constantly laugh at how we never get along and point out how ridiculous it is.

And BWT is right, I was being a jokey joke jokenheimer, as is my wont.

If he failed at that notoriously easy task, then he really might have problems.

Roxy said she was wary. Mongoose hasn't really volunteered. MR seems game.

Mister Rearranger wrote: Ah well, I'd like to fight if that's cool.

Thanks bea! I'm surprised Spaghetti fought so soon again after losing to Boogs in Wilmington.

unfurl wrote:but why is her turn?

It's gotta be somebody's turn. Might as well be her.

why did you voted for her so early, if she did not actually wanted to fight, where others said they do want to fight?

Because she has not fought yet, and I think it is her turn.

Do you really want to fight me, Mongoose? You realize I just put Long Con in the hospital.

timmer wrote:Just to play devils advocate though wouldn't concentrating also theoretically help the police? my stance is always to let people who haven't yet fought have the chance but if they don't want to im not sure I would vote to force them . what if the police have to try not to fight for instance?

so people who haven't fought yet shout out if you want to! !

If there is such a hidden role mechanic, you would have a point, but frankly I doubt it and I see no evidence to suggest it. However, I guess it could be the case that concentrating power would make obvious choices for Project Mayhem to recruit and thus the police to find, but ther's one other angle you haven't considered. If a few people keep fighting and getting stringer, they will inevitably kill of more of the rest of us in the process, and that may include policemen, so I don't think it's a good idea.

S~V~S wrote:BWT fought Day One in Delaware City

Oh yeah. I knew that. Duh.

S~V~S wrote:Is she the only one who has not fought?

Nope. Also birdwithteeth, Mister Rearranger, and Roxy.

I've had a think about strategy, and I think it is in all of our best interests to spread the fghting out as much as possible. Since Project Mayhem can presumably recruit whomever they want, if too much power gets concentrated into too few hands, Project Mayhem can just recruit those people and we are done for. Here, as always, our strength is in numbers, so if we try to keep power levels fairly evenly balanced, we will be better off.

I'm voting for Mongoose to fight because she hasn't yet and I think it's her turn.

And not sure about Penn's Grove yet. I have yet to travel there myself.

I'll probably go there tomorrow, if only to fill in my records.

Does anyone know who fought last night or the night before at Penn's Grove? That Jersey town is a gaping hole in my records.

I like where your head's at, BWT. I would also like to add that DH seemed almost desperate to fight me, knowing that he had already won one fight and would surely defeat me. I found that a little odd. (not that he would want to win, but that he would single out me, an obvious underdog for it)

I saw inh and dp in delaware day -night 2 extremly quiet there, as there were only 3 players, I was pretty much talking to myself :P
ace was seriously injured (can not vote or vote)
i voted randomly for dp, inh voted for him later on and dp missed votting

I won the fight and dp died, but good to see he is back is replacing!

You're the only killer among us so far, killer!

bea wrote: You gave LC enough of a beating that you left the city? Wow.

Actually, I didn't know I was going to win until I got here, but I still feel bad, since he was apparently injured.

timmer wrote:Thanks! and DP replaced Devin, so that's why I haven't seen him, either. That just leaves Inh, Elohcin, Metalmarsh89, Juliets, Jjlehto, Johns2jj... have you guys seen them around?

The must all be in Joisey.

SpaghettiEverywahere started in Wilmington, and then got beat by Boogs in a fight. I forget where he traveled to after that.

timmer wrote:so llama, you left your spot? What ever happened to "let's take out the newbies!" lol??

I got me a couple of traveling buddies, and I felt bad about how thoroughly I beat up Long Con, so I figured it would be better not to show my face around there for a while.

timmer wrote:Hmm, I guess MP forgot that I wanted to jump to Delaware City... oh, well, next time!

We're glad you're here, though, Timmer!

Just finished reading the thread. I'm amused to see that DH proposed a similar strategy to what I proposed on Day 1. Then he came over to WIlmington and immediately started attacking me for my posts. How did he not think that subterfuge would be found out?

Hi folks. Good to be with you. I have to read the thread to catch up.
