Biblical Mafia [ENDGAME]

[Julinook]

I'm late to the party but I'm here now.

[Grand Scheme]

rvs votes are not flip a coin random that's sus(s)

usually scum reveal intentions in a wagon or under pressure

but since votes can't be changed i can see how this will be different

And I thought the hardest thing to decipher was going to be the biblical language

I am using a phone at work most of the time so

Mostly the jargon, not the actual post itself. I'm confused as to t he difference between RVS and sus(s) specifically. Not sure if it will be relevant, though.

[SmashKings]

oh okay sorry about that

rvs is random voting stage

sus(s) is suspicious

[Julinook]

I voted for The Apocalypse, it sounds interesting.

[SmashKings]

consider my d1 vote threat withdrawn

gotta find a new target

[Young Lady]

Rvs = random vote stage.

yea this

I thought every mafia community used rvs i don't understand how does d1 happen

What do you mean? When does Day 1 start or what do we do on Day 1 in terms of voting?

In terms of voting

d1 starts at end of this phase?

Almost every time Day 1 follows after Day 0. We've had Night 0s before, but that is totally exceptional and up to the Host.

Voting on day 1 falls under regular mafia tactics, i.e. voting for the player you think is scum (bad). You will be able to vote only once in the poll (meaning votes aren't changeable). To sort of meet you halfway, I can tell you we do not collectively use the rvs tactic - we do our best to find a player we think might be scum (bad), based on the D0 interaction.

Linki @ Job: why do you ask for confirmation? are you also new to the site?

Irrelevant. Why does it matter?

First evasive answer of the game.

[SmashKings]

I'll try not to use too many abbreviations I didn't realize how different they all were

glad someone else asked about BTSC because I have not seen that

[Ned Flanders]

Paul, just curious; have you read the host rules and host posts and the sign up thread? Specifically the parts about not being obvious as re the sockpuppets?

[SmashKings]

i skimmed the rules and the signups early on I'll look again tho thanks

[NurseWilgy]

well this is already getting interesting and it's not even day 1 yet. And people say there is no evidence this early. Pfft.

[Lunatella]

I'm not being evasive. I like that meta is non existent and want to keep it that way.

I can't commit to voting Nicodemus Paul but what has he done that is suss? I'll certainly assist with applying pressure

[SmashKings]

ah nothing really I was just messing with him

I'll find a good target don't worry

[Chuck]

Who will cast the first stone?

[Lunatella]

Who will cast the first stone?

If by some you mean vote, my bets on Paul.

Stone- sorry.

[Kent Brockman]

Just got done taking a dip in my pool and realized this game started.

[Epignosis]

Disciples search as long as they are alive.

This is technically untrue, and I just realized why: Disciples who have not been found search as long as they are alive. Disciples who have been found stop searching and start using whatever gifts God has given them.

Forgive me for any confusion I may have caused!

Also, if the final six vote before the tenth hour (PM EST), the first stoning will begin.

[Bass_the_Clever]

voting the acts.

[Ned Flanders]

Ooo a stoning. Typically Whores are stoned; are we going to import some from that Heathen thread a few forums down?

linki,

[Lunatella]

One of these posters is not like the others...

Im suspicious of Lot, for missing the obvious LAW-T joke when he voted for The Law.

I may make a lot of puns, but I'm trying to stick to one per post. Put the tent peg away.

Deborah is not the one with the tent peg. She is the little old woman depicted in the piece. The tent peg-wielder is none other than Jael, who drove it into the Canaanite warlord Sisera's head while he was asleep. Barak, who defeated the opposing army but lost out on the honor for slaying the captain, is the man in the background.

[Spooky Ghost]

I picked the law. I like knowing the rules.

Man, my strategy here was to pose as someone who knew the bible, and you dun killed it! Thanks a LOT!

Now I'll have to pose as something else. Erm... what is BTSC? I am new to mafia and also from another site where they have different jargon. Yes.

No meta is interesting, but the down side is I can't remember who said anything. Everyone blends into one.

BTSC is behind the scene conversation, Lot.

This is a test:

a) Mafia
b) Baddies
c) Scum
d) Wolves

I choose e) none of the above.

Your four are a lot of different words for something I don't like.

[Ned Flanders]

So what do you call them?

[SmashKings]

hah nice btc

c) scum but what's the point of this

[SmashKings]

Who will cast the first stone?

also damn straight

Remember that time in History when you were made ?

[Quokka]

Check in. I see we are all trying to play our little parts. How cute, in that case I recommend not crossing me or I may have to call down some bears on your ass. Just sayin'.

@Host, will it be relevant to the game to figure out who the other players are?

Elisha's baldness I will not mock.

Figuring out who the other players are is always relevant, isn't it?

[dodo]

I'd study The Law to compare it with Babylon's own.

Not a fan of Daniel's book.

Intrigued by Barnabas' color & BTSC question and Paul's use of the term scum. Are you new to the site, brothers?

Some of it seems contrived.... we'll see!

since no one knows who is using an account no one relies on meta?

makes it hard, but fun.

Beat me to it.

[The Dry Flood]

Voted *Law* just to tie it up.

[Quokka]

I'm not bald anyway. I don't need to hide from any one eating with the birds. I anoint kings, bro! Now what's up?

[The Dry Flood]

So what do you call them?

I do not like how you are trying to figure out who everyone is. Defeats the whole purpose of a sock game. Pray stop it or you will earn my vote day 1.

[Grand Scheme]

So much to go on already! I told you guys voting based on suspicion would be posible for D1

[Jack Shephard]

Quite a few foreigners around these parts. I say, fellows, when in Canaan, do as the Canaanites do.

I completely agree, in a game where it has been commanded that identities are not to be shared, even in btsc. At least, I don't mind people trying to figure out who others are... I dare say there will be a lot of that going on. But it bothers me that someone would try to get others to outwardly incriminate themselves in the thread.

[Epignosis]

I have never been a fan of Pauls; he is such a misogynist.

No more so than almost any male during that time, I would say. In fact, given the cultural changes (and fashion revolutions) during the first century, I would argue that Paul was more aware of the importance and value of women than most of his contemporaries. A lot of what we see presented in his letters dealt with propriety among a given culture, even if Paul (a former Pharisee) used Pharisaic rhetoric and arguments to prove his point (and Israelite Christians in foreign lands would have accepted those arguments).

The head covering passage in First Corinthians 11 makes a lot of sense in this context.

Belshazar also suss for that reason, lean scum on him and Ruth. Townreading paul

See I don't think it's suspicious just bad form. The disciples of our Lord will want to find and understand one another.

Yay! Welcome doll face!

[Perd Hapley]

Bathsheba sounds like a super fab name btw! What do you do in the Old Testament hunny?
