The Pope is dead, long live the new... whoops. I forgot that that is why we are here.

Well, since no one else is fit for the position I humbly accept the incumbency.

However, if you are doubters who can not hear the Lord's voice and will not end this stalemate quickly by just doing his bidding (electing me) then I'll have to convince you thusly.

I think Yogsloth is giving himself away already. That mention of "Quarks" is a physicist's talk. He must not be a real man of the Faith™ and thus be a reformer intent on mixing science in our teachings. Or possibly a death robot from the future, I'm not sure.

Vote Yogsloth

Are we being sure the old pope is fully dead and not being mostly dead?

Vote Old Pope

Also checking their pockets for loose change.

Technically, absolutely none of us are fit to be Pope for one reason or another.
However in my case, the lack of fitness entirely because of lady parts.

On the other hand, some of you are unfit entirely because you're heretic reformer weirdos that are completely devoid of all moral fiber.... or in the case of yogsloth specifically, he's unfit because he's 100% a death robot from the future.

Only a death robot from the future would be saying, "Totally not a death robot from the future either, in case you asked." when absolutely nobody asked.

My disappointment will be immeasurable once I find this doesn't actually exist.



"Justice for all" sounds like the cry of someone trying to reform a long-standing tradition!

Vote Catventurer

Elect Joppo

Temperance is a much more fitting mindset of a true pope.

Go read Post #1. Justice was assigned to me by Lift. I'm just going with it. Using your logic, we may as well vote out Yog and Scene at the same time for being an incomplete Konami Code.

Vote bucktoothgamer

Why bucktoothgamer? He's fallen apart and revealed his alignment if enough people put pressure on him.

This rings 100% true, but I could also say the same. I am 100% a Catholic Cardinal (not the St. Louis (Baseball) type, nor even the bird-type. I am not from the distant past (No, I'm not saying how old I am! I'm certainly not THAT old!!) Nor am I from another galaxy, nor am I a pesky Reeformer.

Did you find any change (loose or otherwise)? Peanuts? M&Ms?

As I am in the best of physical shape, and thus the most "fit" for the job, I accept the nomination, with all due sincerity, piety, and solemness of mein
I give you good advice and beg you set aside any prejudice or bias against my corpulence:

Meanwhile Catventurer casts shade on Yogs without voting him. This must be the sign of a Reformer, who is simply casting doubt and trying to lead the voting without getting her hands dirty!

Vote Cardinal Justice

As prudence is a Virtue:
Elect Cardinal Prudence

I'm Asking. Are you? DO you recognize any Death Robots from the Future here in Disguise?
I mean, you might look like an Ordinal, but they don't generally have arms and legs.

"If it looks like a book, smells like a book, reads like a book...it must be a coffee cup?"

As that might have been the 3rd vote on Cat, and it is entirely too soon for that,
Vote Cardinal Fortitude
He spoke up first, and admitted that he is self-serving! Humility and seeking the others' good is the principle of the day!

So I'm now Cardinal Fortitude? I don't like the name of that guy.

Okay so the mechanics are like a mish-mash of Secret Hitler and Mafia, I think.

- Voting works as it always did.
- People investigated (lynched) do not leave the game but have their votes disabled.
- No nights, game is always on.
- Election only works if all active voters elect the same player, and it's a game-ender (in Secret Hitler terms everyone is either Fascist Hitler or Liberal Hitler, weird I know)

Something really important though that I picked up:
- The Accuser is a Reformer and is basically the guy in charge of picking the "night investigation". If we somehow get the Accuser flipped, the "night investigation" becomes completely random.

So in previous games the night kill gave us a glimpse into how the scum are thinking and what they think the optimal route to victory is. Here it's the same, unless the Accuser's dirty laundry is brought into light, at which point all "night" investigations from this point onwards are meaningless. You could definitely say that these so-called random investigations are all part of God's plan (hehe).

It's easier to guess at the intentions of humans than it is to blaspheme random.o- God and try to predict our Creator, so one hand it's bad to toss the Accuser, but on the other, the Accuser still votes and elects normally until they're tossed, so the good definitely outweighs the bad in my opinion. Hmm.




Whatever the case might be, this game will still mostly work like any typical Mafia game. Find the scum and force them into the Happy Machine.

I am well aware you were that the name of Justice was not given to you by choice. I also know that trying to assign a cat to each and every person while appreciated, is a clear attempt at bribing you way into Popedom.

I have no qualms with you wishing to investigate me, but trust that the result will not be the one youre looking for...

...unless it is the outcome youre looking for, but if that is the case you already know the answer to the question your posing with "why bucktooth"

It is a fact that technically none of us are fit for various reasons. If Yog is a death robot from the future, that could be his reason of unfitness. It doesn't mean that he's a reformer weirdo on top of being a death robot. Yog's next post could be him admitting that he totally is a death robot from the future, and I'll still be get back to me if and when you think he's a reformer.

The only thing that matters is if someone is a reformer weirdo or not. Obfuscating other people's motives for voting or not voting is a reason to think that you in fact are a reformer. Congrats, you now have my vote.

I'll reserve my vote for now on which of you is likely to be a scoundrel.

Also, can I show you this picture? Have you seen this boy?

I finding a few loose pesos and a copy of Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Also included is some robe lint.

You and Fortitude oddly voting same in posts 22 and 23, two scums being buddying up playing coyly? And the post 25 of Fortitude says a bunch of somethings and then also being nothings. Falsifying a look of sleuthing? I wonder about it all. Will not voting Fortitude in case it's being a mistake so I will
