Perhaps. Perhaps not.

That sounds appropriate.

Ordinarily, I like to stay out of the thread unless someone addresses me or I need to address something. However, this is the first time I've ever offered a theme that was academic rather than pop-cultural. For that reason, I hope no one minds my (occasional) commentary and observations on culture or history. Feel free to disregard or read at your pleasure.

The Proverbs

Young Lady · #57

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?

That or they simply wish to appear as such.

Yeah, you can never really tell with sock accounts. We probably shouldn't take anything at face value.

A wise assumption, no doubt, but let them speak first.

Yeah, I'm fairly new to the site and never came across these things. Then again, I'm probably spamming in the Speakeasy with my main right as we speak.

yea I'm new recruited here by moving pictures

why can't we kill scum yet

Patience is a virtue.

A curious but probably inconsequential trend in the voting caught my eye. For a while there, every time someone voted for The Law, the next person voted for The Apocalypse.

The poll ends tomorrow. We will be able to kill scum then. Don't worry, I am just as eager as you.

NurseWilgy · #65

But while we're on the subject, Paul, do you have any ideas of who might be scum yet?

#66

what's the point of the poll

as to scum idk atm but will catch one d1 i am sure

scum do not win the bible

Several games around here start with a Day 0 to get people acclimated to the game, allow time to check-in, and so on. Day 0 polls sometimes give prizes/positive/negative effects to players. Sometimes they don't, and are just there to help set the tone.

cool thanks man

Never heard of it. Is it part of the Apocrypha or Pseudepigrapha by chance?

I wonder if Paul is going to continue to drop Obviously From Another Site jargon on us?

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?

Lunatella · #81

We try our best to vote someone suspicious. I think the host said you can't change your vote this game, so random voting would be less efficient. Can anyone confirm that, I'm lazy

#82

but you can find a player sus(s) via rvs

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?

#84

air right evidence on d1 is practically impossible

#85

that should say airtight damn autocorrect

Young Lady · #86

Define evidence.

do players generally talk more b/c how can you find scum based on fluff

vote history, scum lynches, slip up, bussing, etc

.

Bottom line, if you find the setting of this game and how we usually play different from your site, maybe it would be best to take the opportunity of this Day 0 interval and ask the Host to clarify things.

Linki: Well, we have to start somewhere. Slips can sometimes happen very early on, but it depends, again, on your own definition of a slip up.

#90

oh okay thanks

hmmm votes are not changeable i will have to rethink strategy

#91

do wagons happen on d1 usually then or no

Grand Scheme · #92

Random voting sucks. You're much more likely statistically to find a baddie Day 1 by actually making an effort than you are by randomly voting, particularly en masse.

#93

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

#95

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

This is my thought, and what I'm most excited about. A meta free game? Sign me up.

#100

I agree meta is lame

hey job let's vote nicodemus once d1 starts

Who slew Samuel?
