Occultism Mafia - THE END

[Tangrowth]

Has everyone checked in yet or not?

[insertnamehere]

Later scholars have also theorized that alchemical texts were actually sex manuals in disguise. SInce the topic was taboo to talk about in plain language, alchemists used metaphor to describe the sexual act, with substances like sulfur and mercury representing bodily fluids, combined in the sublime act of procreation. The references to eternal life could be allusions to the creation of children to perpetuate one’s bloodline. But this is all conjecture.

That must be a fun class in Hogwarts.

[Hedgeowl]

Seeing as how successful my top posters strategy was that one time, I checked the rankings. Vomps is currently our top poster this game.

That's rare.

Woudl you believe me if I todl you I'm highly enjoying this game so far and will most likely voluntarily be reading the thread, q.m.

I would because I know how much the occult means to you

even though we argue about alchemy often

[nutella]

I wonder, if divination had won out, could we have divined who the baddies are?

[Mongoose]

Yesterday I learned that Pompeii is the ancient ruins and Pompei is the modern city.

I've learned all kinds of things this week.

Alchemy can be dirty and nefarious, but I'm not certain those voters had info.

@Host - Did anyone have info?

[thellama73]

What kind of info?

[Mongoose]

@Host - Did anyone have info?

What kind of info?

That selecting a particular option would behoove (or alternatively harm) them.

OR that someone else selecting a certain option would behoove or harm that other person.

[Tangrowth]

I love the word behoove.

No one (at least to my knowledge) has that kind of info. Players do, however, have info about their own roles and those of their BTSC partners, where applicable, if that helps.

I got the impression that this was a directional poll, not a rewarding poll. I could be wrong about that, but it was the impression I got. I am unlikely to vote for someone based on their vote in that poll.

At this point, only one thing is sticking out to me, and that is Hedgie implying she would consider voting for Vomps based solely on the number of his posts. That does not sit well with me, tbh. If i had to vote this second, i might vote there, but i don't so I won't. Maybe she was just joking?

She said something similar at the start of last game (I think it was the one you modded), so it's at least consistent.

[S~V~S]

Did she? I followed the game in general, but don't recall specific posts, or keep track of affiliation. It just seems, like low poster talk, to be an easy way to not be accountable for your vote.

Did she vote based on that? And what was her affiliation?

[Dom]

Hedge was civ in that game, Sherry.

[S~V~S]

OK, thanks

[Hedgeowl]

Hedge was civ in that game, Sherry.

SVS - ask Dom how he remembers so clearly.

But yes, I tried the top poster theory in wwe and it was mildly successful, but in the Hobbit, MP was the top poster Day 1 and I went with it and we got him, followed by 2 more of his teammates, so it felt like a successful start. That said, I don't know who I will vote for now, but couldn't resist teasing Vomps.

I still might vote a top poster k.

4 And it came to pass that the Tilded One spake ignorance of the goings and comings of the Hedgeowl, even though, on the Third Day of WWE (cf., The Twenty-third of December in the Year of our Lord 2013), the Hedgeowl announced its intentions to search for evil among those who had oft spoken.

5 And in those days, the Tilded One had walked in the ways of evil (cf., The Fifteenth of December, in the Year of our Lord 2013, being a strong and mighty Big Show, working for the worshipers of Mammon.

[Boogs]

Day 1 is always a poop shoot, and no one has raised either of my two lovely kitty eyebrows yet. I don't agree top posters always mean they are bad even if that ended up coincidently working in Hobbit for whatever reason.
Also I agree that I don't think it was a reward poll per se, but probably just where are we going type of thing like when Epignosis did X Men.

Does SVS's alignment in that game have any meaning in this game?

Why "probably"?

Hello Dom! Nice to see you not being devoured by the Negaverse

Probably because it seems most games I have played that is how it goes. But, I haven't played a Llama game so just assuming SVS was correct and agreeing.

[Dom]

Hm..

[Elohcin]

Well....I have to be the first to vote I guess. I will be working in the morning and won't have time for Mafia. Curse me if you want..I randomized . Lizzy.

I was referencing this:

Epignosis, you be sure to tell us if your wife is evil once again with those spouse tingling skills of yours, okay? Lol

Epi's opinions are not flawless.

Now, just curious... what if Elo was lynched today...

how would you react?

^ whs

Also, while I think Epi has a great read on Elo in many games, I would be real impressed if he felt this early on that he could already tell.

I feel like I'm at Mass. A much more amusing Mass that involves killing. Preacher Epi, why has our Lord and Savior suddenly enlightened you with this elevated speech, out of curiosity? It amuses and intrigues me so.

Also Great and Powerful Host, I just got Epi's first post about me. I am, in fact, a Lady Blooper

[Epignosis]

6 What speak you of a savior, when I spake only of a Lord? For our Lord is cruel and punishes those who walk in the paths of unrighteousness, stringing such a one up by his neck until the body be dead, dead, dead and then returning it to the red clay from whence it was drawn.

I don't spend a lot of brain cells remembering everything everyone else does in a game if it does not impact me much. And that obviously did not. Unless I directly engage them, I don't carry baggage from game to game. Everyone evolves.

Was the person she killed via her high poster theory on my team?

And I believe badness/civvieness is to be determined by content, not post count. So I distrust anyone who bases votes on that alone. Pretty much always, and I can say this with firm conviction and without need of *not this game* linkis.

[S~V~S]

Also, I was having too much fun in that game sitting in a chatroom with Bass howling over some of the antics of the civvies.

That is what I mainly recall from that game. That and me & MP getting pissy with each other over distancing.

Good ol' Old Testament!

[Mongoose]

I need to vote soon as well because I don't get up until 10, since I work late. I'm not inclined to vote Vomps, since he's active and contributing and I want to reward good behavior.

Gonna mull this over a bit and hope someone else posts.

[S~V~S]

I have to agree re Vomps, I will read back before work, and see who posted actual content, and who did not. I will probably vote based on that.

Other than Hedgie, did anyone actually recommend a Vomps vote?

[nijuukyugou]

I also don't want to vote for someone based on number of posts, but for their content. Unfortunately, upon re-reading the thread, there isn't much content to work with. Such is the course of Day 1, I suppose.

@S~V~S Not that I saw. It seems the people who actually responded to her did not want to swing that way vote-wise.

[Epignosis]

7 MovingPictures07 was on a journey to the temple, as was his custom. A shepherd observed him, saying "Traveler, the means of sending forth your seed has been severed."

I did a re-skim and I don't see anything of that nature.

I wonder, if divination had won out, could we have divined who the baddies are?

Grasping at straws. And just so I can beat Lizzy to the punch before she accuses me of trumped up nonsense ( ), I will admit this is not the most salient case. Hells bells, it's not even a case, but it's above random voting.

ANYWAY

Verbose mongoose is verbose

I feel like this could be Nutty trying to throw suspicion off of her own trail. Like trying to distance herself from baddies. Perhaps. Our host Jeffrey Llamer would never let it so easily be discerned.

This is a terrible case and I strongly suggest you vote elsewhere. It's Day 1 and it's all I got so far. This is the most ridiculous, overblown pseudo-case made from one statement on Day 1 ever, but I promised myself I'd not be a space cadet in this game.

Let's roll.

Fixed, as has been Blooper, o sage one.

Also, if the poll time is a problem for people, let me know and I can push it back towards evening. I just started it early because I was eager and had some downtime at work.

[nutella]

Have to vote now, don't really have any good ideas. Hedge's thing about voting for the top poster seems weird, not necessarily suspicious but it's all I can think of so I'm voting for her

[nijuukyugou]

I'd like to go to bed, and I definitely won't be up before the poll ends (I've managed to get my sleep schedule nice and night-owly for the summer. Hooray!). I don't have any strong feelings for anyone in particular at the moment, but I'm *intrigued* by Epi's posting style so far, and a bit confused as to his lynch vote choice (perhaps I am not able to decipher his last posting?). Part of me wants to say that posting like he is is far too obvious for a baddie so early in the game, but the other part of me says not to ignore it. Not the greatest reason, but it's a reason, and I don't feel like randomizing.

Sleep time!

[Vompatti]

I am so confused reading all the comments above that I don’t feel any of the comments are of any use! I came on this site to find out the best solution to clean a laminate floor and everyone here has an opinion but nobody seems to agree! I guess that I better check out another site.

[S~V~S]

Why did Epi vote Lizzy? Tedious self imposed curse is tedious~ he has quoted and made some fairly clear remarks, not sure why he could not do so here.

I am hoping to get an understandable (non pseudo Biblicalish) explanation for this. I am not holding my breath My other possible vote is Nutella, but i always tend to read her as opportunistic & sinister (what I find a Hedgie vote to be after it has been pointed out that she has done this high poster biz previously as a civ, which doesn't not mean she is one now, but DOES mean that it is not necessarily a baddie way to make a non accountable vote on Hedgies part) BUT BUT I almost ALWAYS tend to misread LA as being bad whether she is or not, and would hate to do so on Day One.

So leaning towards an Epi vote, but not enough that I need to vote yet. His non explanation for his Lizzy vote, and his trying to make me look icky for a non game related reason (me not recalling something that happened in another game I played, but that had no effect on me) both kinda got my eye. All the other eye getters only got my eye once, he got 2 eyes.

When I DO vote it will be from work on phone, so it is likely to be a not much said vote~ vote now, explain later.

[Tangrowth]

I don't like Epi's unexplained vote for Lizzy, so I'm throwing a vote there.

Plus, yay ties.

Also, LMAO

Maybe Epi voted Lizzy to subtly say that he thinks I am civvie this game. He would be right.
