Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
Voted Jephthah, because that's who I think is actually bad.
I toyed with a vote for Cain, because when reading the thread it felt a little like the Samson votes might be coming in to take heat off Cain. But the timing of the votes doesn't really bear that out on closer analysis. Still, I'll keep a closer eye on that now.
I tend to think the votes for Samson lack depth - it's the easy vote, not the one that came with thoughtful analysis. It felt like a day one where there were an awful lot of people who kept themselves completely out of trying to do any kind of thinking or discussing of candidates, so I think I'll have to go back and do a reread of the day and see who I think have just taken the easy way out.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
Something's come up that is going to take me away sooner than I thought, so I'm voting now. Some thoughts: Still not sold on Paul, Absalam (sp?) pinged me slightly, and I don't like the Cain-Train one bit. Voting Paul.

Meh, both players with most votes don't seem suspicious of me. I think I'm going to vote for Maria Magdalena. I agreed with Jonah when he said her post was suspicious, even though I could also see it as him trying to find something easy to go after. Still, he's one of those who made most sense to me the past day, and Maria Magdalena looks like someone who's also trying to lay low. My vote is going there

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
Well, I was all for voting Samson earlier with his responses and poorly explained vote but now I'm thinking mafia wouldn't put themselves out there like that. Or he just doesn't give a shit, which I both dislike and admire in a strange way. Uzziah was next on my list for weird behavior. I'm doing this via phone in a hot car before my commute but I can explain better later when I'm at a computer. Voting Uzziah.

Not going to lie, the number of people pulling the "aw shucks, trying is too hard for Day 1- randoms!

In the interest of keeping things interesting, I'm going to vote for Cain. Don't try to play five games at once and think it's okay to give us sass about why you're ignoring one of them. You're probably a civvie but oh well. So it Samson I bet. Nice bandwagon set up there btw.

Or I don't agonize at looking at the poll constantly?Job wrote:I think if Rachel had actually considered a vote for me she would have noticed and mentioned it.
I decided to vote Rebecca. I voted for Rebecca.
This makes no sense Deborah, given that you were the first to vote for Cain.Deborah wrote:I am not going to have the time to properly catch up. I decided to look at the players who have gotten votes so far, and those who have voted already.
I get a fairly solid read from Absalom, but I do not like Cain. I get no sense of civvieness in his few posts, and I think he misconstrued Absalom's position.
It is all I have the time for, so voting Cain. I promise to be more active soon.
I think we should start voting Deborah who clearly got caught up by her BTSC mates and changed mindsets midway through her post.
Isn't it, though? I mean, he literally says that "heathens" (people who do not conform to his will) are hellbound. So....?Jonah wrote:Exactly my brother this is so typical. People vote for what they do not understand. That is not the ways of our LordSamson wrote:As usual, the Syndicate votes for oddities instead of baddies.
Carry on.


Anyway, Deborah is pretty bad tbh
Also, looks like Balaam likes voting for civs.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
You guys need t p learn to read. I said I was going to look at both those who had votes AND THOSE WHO HAD VOTED. Cain was on the list and seemed scummiest. 

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
7 When the servant of the Lord spake unto the people of Sin-d’kaht all the things the Lord bade him to utter, the people were sore afraid. And they began to quarrel. 8 While they quarreled, a certain man named Samson accused Samuel of adultery, that Samuel had bedded many female-identified socks (socks is the Sin-d’kaht word for foreigners). 9 When several witnesses came forth declaring that Samuel had not slept with any socks, Samson tore his hair and threw himself to the ground, confessing that he did not truly believe that Samuel was guilty of this sin. 10 The people turned their faces against Samson. “If you did not believe Samuel was evil, wherefore did you bear false witness against him?” 11 And verily did they take him to the city gates and stone him. 12 When they had done this, a traveler from Israel passed by and saw what they had done. 13 “This is a wicked generation indeed, for I know this man you call Samson. In Israel, he is called James, the Son of Alphaeus.” 14 At this, the people returned to their homes, fearful of what calamity may await them during the Night.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
RIP Samson.
I don't have a lot more to say on that front. I don't blame people for voting for him - I think Samson's actions sort of brought it on himself. But on the other hand I think he was an easy vote and I definitely will be looking at his voters tomorrow to see which of them seemed to be simply taking the easy way out.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
29 Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon. 30 And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands, 31 then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the Lord’s, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.Lot wrote:(not to mention, he sacrificed his daughter as a burnt offering.)
32 So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the Lord delivered them into his hands. 33 And he smote them from Aroer, even till thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.
34 And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter. 35 And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his clothes, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast brought me very low, and thou art one of them that trouble me: for I have opened my mouth unto the Lord, and I cannot go back. 36 And she said unto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth unto the Lord, do to me according to that which hath proceeded out of thy mouth; forasmuch as the Lord hath taken vengeance for thee of thine enemies, even of the children of Ammon. 37 And she said unto her father, Let this thing be done for me: let me alone two months, that I may go up and down upon the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I and my fellows. 38 And he said, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains. 39 And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed: and she knew no man. And it was a custom in Israel, 40 that the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year.
++++
I do not believe Jephthah sacrificed his daughter as a burnt offering. That doesn't make sense, for three reasons:
1. Human sacrifice was prohibited among the Hebrews under the Mosaic covenant. Granted, the Israelites did plenty of evil things during this period, but that one was universally frowned upon among them. Jephthah was remembered as a conqueror and hero, so it would seem strange that a man who knew the rules would choose to burn his only daughter knowing such a thing would not please God.
2. E.W. Bullinger points out that the word often translated "and" in verse 31 ("whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the Lord’s, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.") could reasonably be translated "or." Prior to that verse is this one: "Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon." The Spirit of the Lord led Jephthah to swear burning his daughter as an offering to the Lord? Nah.
3. Notice that the lament from the daughter is not that her skin is about to be extra crispy, but that she will never know a man. Her virginity was bewailed, not her life. If you were about to die a horrible death, would your first instinct be to mourn the fact that you've never had sex? If so, congratulations, you will enjoy the next American Pie film. The text explicitly tells us that the vow meant that "she knew no man." If she's a human torch, that much could be assumed, right?
No, Jephthah's anguish is spelled out in verse 34: He has no grandchildren. Now he shall surely have none. In the patriarchal mindset of the time, Jephthah's daughter belongs to God, and therefore cannot belong to a husband. That is why he is pissed (and I've read a couple of articles that claim that the cultural clues indicate that Jephthah's daughter was a total brat who knew her father vowed this and wanted to be a bitch. I don't know if I agree on that point, but it was interesting reading all the same).

Not at this time.Jonah wrote:Hoooooo boy does this post raise some flags for me. it sounds like you know paul's 3 suspects aren't heathens so youre gonna help him lynch one so you can discredit his gut later.Balaam wrote:I bear no grudge against Paul at the moment, but the ruthless, unfeeling player in me thinks the best way to deal with an aggressive fisher like Paul is to put him to the test. Let's take him up on his three suspects and lynch one of them. He seems fairly confident that they are bad (though he threw up a smoke screen about not being 100% on anything). We can always call his bluff. If we lynch one of his top three and they're not bad, either Paul will cool it with the gunslinger rhetoric or the rest of us will know to take his words with a grain of salt.
What else do we really have to go on?

I don't care about pings and feelings. Nor do engage in "forcing it" as Paul has done. I simply wait for people to expose themselves to me. This occurs through patterns in voting, process of elimination, and patterns of defensive and supportive behavior in the thread. If I survive past Night 3, I'll let you know what I've come up with.
Got it
Whales love this tactic because if we don't find a heathen early they can run the show and turn on the Lord's disciples for the mistakes they've made

Bed now. And for the record, this game makes bible study actually sound almost appealing. Suppose I just need a good teacher

You and several others voted for him.Deborah wrote:I'll tell you what. Prove to me Cain is civvie and I'll admit to being misguided. If you cannot, then why isn't looking at him just as good as anyone else? I seem to have ruffled some feathers by voting him.

Please, explain to me, how you, who were choosing from who already had votes (and had voted? that was a lot of people, my dear) came to Cain.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
Okay dears, so I think still going into Day 2 something is going in with Paul and Absalom still. The discussion begins to get heated with everyone versus Paul acting weird and Absalom defends Paul, even to tell us all that we should just simply drop Paul altogether.
Then Absalom tries to draw attention to me over not posting Hunny in my posts. Which is ridiculous and makes a big deal how I broke character in my post which makes me suspicious for talking normal and calls me out.
Then he tries to start a little distancing of the dear Paul a little just a little this early.
Then this whole Absalom post for his Cain vote was just odd dears. I think it was a slip he meant.
I think Absalom is definitely my vote tomorrow at this point and I think he and Paul are a little too chummy with each other for my liking hunnies.
But then they have a fake little truffle real fast to distance from eachother after he says for us to drop it.Absalom wrote:Okay, the Paul show is getting a little old. I don't think he's bad, but he's drowning out everything else in the thread, make it hard for me to get a read on others.Paul wrote:actually how about everyone instead name their top 3 scum atmPaul wrote: I am curious what everyone thinks of everyone else no joke try to force yourself to make an opinion of those who have posted and share it b/c that's now town wins this game
1 Samson
2 Lot
3 Nicodemus
i await your thoughts, wonderful people
I wish Cain would come back. He is my biggest suspect at this point. I am not reading Nicodemus as bad, but it seems like Lot said something to make me nervous a while ago. I will have to reread. I have no reason to suspect Samson.
Afterwords, they joke about missing eachother.Absalom wrote:Why would I vote for you if I don't think you are bad? That is not a good strategy.Paul wrote:then vote me foolAbsalom wrote: Okay, the Paul show is getting a little old.

srsly I will leave now
Then Absalom tries to draw attention to me over not posting Hunny in my posts. Which is ridiculous and makes a big deal how I broke character in my post which makes me suspicious for talking normal and calls me out.
Paul calls me as a suspect on his "scum hunting" list and Absalom defends again right after words by posting the above.Absalom wrote:This pings me more than anything you have said so far. I took your "hunny"-ing as in character role playing (although I did find it annoying) but I wouldn't expect you to back down from it the second a hint of suspicion comes your way. You have taken no votes and no one has said they are seriously considering voting for you. To cave in under such light suspicion seems like a hair trigger to me, and I find that suspect.Martha wrote:Tbh I am sock playing when I speak some of the time, but the point I keep trying to make was Paul was rubbing me the wrong way by not how he was talking, but how was he acting when he posted. I was also fishing for reactions when I mentioned so what if that is how I really talk or not? I think it's interesting some of the responses of wanting me lynched just for how I talk and saying I'm annoying. I think if anyone talks differently than normal, that's the point of a sock game to have mystery to everyone's usernames. I think we should focus on finding Heathens and less on if someone seems like a new player or how they speak, dears.Belshazzar wrote:More:
If Martha's "hunnies" are sockplay (I didn't get the reference, tbh, I'm not that knowledgeable), then I'm fine with it. Sockplay is fine by me.
Then he tries to start a little distancing of the dear Paul a little just a little this early.
He is letting us know he has an eye on his dear friend Paul, but the sweetie isn't going to get too distanced just yet.Absalom wrote:Why, do you not have a good night power to use?Paul wrote: wake me when d2
Then this whole Absalom post for his Cain vote was just odd dears. I think it was a slip he meant.
To me it's like he got caught, not a typo. I didn't see him steering any of us away from Samson or suggesting he was Civ so why is he so confident?Absalom wrote:I mean I will be surprised if Samson DOESN'T flip civ. Derp.Absalom wrote:I agree with this. I will be surprised if Samson flips civ.Jephthah wrote:I think the votes for Samson are lame. I agree that it's the easiest scapegoat. A baddie would have to be a complete idiot to just vote like that and not explain it, and then go and say he doesn't think the one he voted for is bad. And no, this is not WIFOM because it's a stupid WIFOM, just look at the votes he's getting.
I'm probably going to pick one of Samsons' voters. I still need to read back a little
I think Absalom is definitely my vote tomorrow at this point and I think he and Paul are a little too chummy with each other for my liking hunnies.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
And here was the post where right after Absalom tries to draw attention to me over something he believes makes me suspicious with Paul:
Paul wrote:new scum list
1. Martha
2. nicodemus
3. Samson
4. balaam
5. Samuel
however it is hard to say atm
i am not sure how i feel about lot anymore, he seems cool to me
all of these 5 players are not really scumhunting
Samson's move almost seems too scummy to be true, its really weird to me
i know my original pressure to Samuel was a joke but I want to see more from him

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
This feels like a fake case to me, mainly because it doesn't make any sense. You think the sentence "I will be surprised if Samson flips civ" was not a typo? Okay, let's assume I meant to type it. What does that tell you? Samson did flip civ. What would I have to gain by saying I thought he would flip bad if I were bad? I find this all very confusing.Martha wrote: Then this whole Absalom post for his Cain vote was just odd dears. I think it was a slip he meant.

I have done this sort of thing as a baddie before, manufacture a case that I don't really believe by pulling out anything noticeable. Only in this case, the quote doesn't say what you are claiming it says.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
You were trying to build cred sweetie by saying you think he would be Civ.,but you showed no opinion on him being civ or how we should not have voted him. I felt like you were trying to make yourself look good without trying to ever support him. You and Paul are not rubbing me the right way sweet cheeks.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
But I initially said I didn't think he was civ (a typo) which you claim was not a typo. Why do you make that claim? Can you see that it makes no sense?Martha wrote:You were trying to build cred sweetie by saying you think he would be Civ.,but you showed no opinion on him being civ or how we should not have voted him.

Right it does make sense sweetie. You said he wasn't a Civ which was fine because you didn't talk about him or wanting to vote for him but you fixed it to make sure you said, "He is a civ" which was odd you would call him a civ and correct yourself when you didn't defend him to start with. The first way didn't strike me until you corrected your own self.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER I]
Do you not want to discuss how you and Paul are apparent teammates, Absalom dear? You seemed to only focus on the last part to get attention back off.
