one and all... to... State Of The Spoiling: Witches Coven This week's SOTS is brought to you with generous support of phine companies like... Coco's Watering Hole J-Papa Logbo's Survivor Voodoo Camp, Tempting Shack and Wood Annex The evolution will now slowly begin.TM 20 Been-There Done-That witches and warlocks were summoned by J Papa Logbo to participate in a contest to crown a new 'Supreme' and a 6month long bragging period. Then, unexpectedly and due to global warming, the seasonal merging of splintered tribes had come early. No worries though, it's all about the Vitum Vitalis. And she's a beech. Joe (cam conf): "He's probably off in some unholy nether realm, cavorting with that half-baked Beetlejuice. JPapa Legoboo-boo, or whatever the hell his name is." These 10 witches and warlocks (and 1 minotaur) will be beckoned for the next "Exceptionals Reward Test" by none other than JPapa Legprobst. The test itself will have two tribes competeing against each other. First aligning a series of 9 giant voodoo pins to be used as steps up to a platform and then a sliding snake down the backside. They will then slink their way through the BlairWitch Stick Maze and when out the other side, (IF they make it out) will be an opportunity for 1 witch from each tribe to cast 1 spell in order to raise the flag at the other end. The tribes are decided via Old-Coven Pick'em style. JPapa: "Okay... Ready, Steady, Go!" Stygian #3: "The winners are... Joe, Tasha, Spencer, Ciera and Stephen!" Now, perhaps before going or perhaps after returning, Stephen re-connects with Keith and the Minotaur. Stephen: "You girls need to learn to fight. When witches don't fight, we burn." Keith: "Careful, girls, it's not a game." Jeremy: "I am Minotaur" Stephen: "I want to make a move. I don't care how it's happening, but it's happening." So Stephen practices four different moves... After a few moments JPapa returns and tempts the Exceptionals. No takers, but he has a trick up his sleeve. Duhhh!!! Then from on high, the voice of gawd clears his throat and says... Uh-Oh... more Prophecy going on! And as evidenced from the following vidcap, it's clear that Kelly finds the inner peace to fly her carpet to the advantage. Does it work? Does she find the Idol of Regeneration? Well, let us first contact another scryer to see what the outcome of the Individual Exceptionals Test is. What? Why Spencer? I contend, anyone seen looking for an idol should be considered most in danger. Or at least consider themselves to be in danger. This leaves Spencer, Kelly, Kelley, Ciera and Kimmi as most likely to "step-up". And considering Spencer has been in 2nd most every Individual Exceptionals Test, it's about time he proves he has what it takes. Well, to further the point... Witches Coven indeed, considering one of the best most well known powers of witches is the power of suggestion. Stephen will want to remove Joe. In this fight of the warlocks it is completely possible that the "witches coven" trifecta of Abi, Kelley and Ciera will have the target removed from themselves and end up having Joe and Stephen to choose between. Leaving... Of those, and in my opinion... Uh-Oh. JPapa: "The votes are in...The deal is off. You have nothing to sell. You have no soul." My bullet list prediction... 4 of 5 Witches agree... |
WOW! This was very entertaining. Nice work Tribe. I could see Fishbach getting the boot.Also about the idol.
This picture of Jeremy
Seems like he's doing his inner Woo and watches someone find the idol or he finds the idol himself and tries to make sure no one is around before picking it up.
I just realized I left my premonitions with no visible notations regarding the Hidden Idol... But here is Jeremy, with stick in hand, going towards the tree with many hanging vines/rootlets...
Here he is with his stick, just about to uncover something...
(Or at least this is what the typical cameraman manouver is when they are about to find something.)
Here is Joe near the same tree...
And here is Jeremy, peering from behind the very same tree...
I think he's watching Joe. Insuring in his own mind that Joe is unsuccessful.
SOTS Bullet-List addendum:
Jeremy finds Hidden Idol (his 2nd).
Looks like we had a clinger.
LAST EDITED ON 11-18-15 AT 05:13 PM (EST)Spectacular job Tribe! You are the master of the SOTS!!
ETA: I meant this to go at the bottom of the post, but this works too!
I was having an out of life experience whilst on vacation in the Kingdom of Florida, I could consult the oracle from said kingdom and I thought you had a totally amazing SOTS but my crystal ball HTC would only receive and not send so I'm forced to return to the limbo of my world and let you know what a clever wizard you are. Loved the SOTS, too bad the fates stepped in and gave your target the cloak of invisibility this week.
And I should learn to read dem'bones better. Kelly was there the whole time, even seen summoning while flying a carpet. The signs couldn't have been clearer. Maybe it was a matter of Windexing the Crystal before scrying?Either way...
Glad you're back from vacationland.
Don't EVER leave again, or I may cast a 'stationary' spell.
Well, damn you, I've got to do a SOTS next week to follow this one you just did? Way to raise the bar!I'm with you for a Stephen boot as well. Nice job with the SOTS!
Seriously, Tribe. OMG!!! You have even out-done yourself, my MAN! This SOTS shall remain the pinnacle, the standard, to WITCH all SOTS's will be forever compared. There may be competition between DAWS but there is no competition between SOTS writers. YOU stand ALONE! A HEAD of the pack, the CHERRY on top, the ICING on the cake....Tribe this was SPOOKtacular. I'm BLOWN away. Seriously in awe. Bow down to the king of the SOTS.I absolutely loved it. I definitely consider Kelly as a top contender to go for that advantage, after all she was the one that went for the rice, and she would have gotten it if she had waited, like Woo, to dive in a bit closer. If she gets it, would she share the clue with Joe? I dunno. I love the Minotaur channeling his inner Tony, and spying on the one with the advantage. Or, is he just spying on Joe to see if he finds it or not?
Regardless, at this point I am in favor of a Stephen boot, but I still am considering Joe "has no balls and is dead to me" Kelly, and Ciera "I need a miracle" Easton.
I loved this and I love you!

Stephen: "Hail to the guardians of the watchtowers of the East, the powers of air and invention. Hear me!
Hail to the guardians of the watchtowers of the South, the powers of fire and feeling. Hear me!
Hail to the guardians of the watchtowers of the West, powers of water and intuition. Hear me!
Hail to the guardians of the watchtowers of the North, by the powers of mother and earth. Hear me!Wait! I know these bulwarked Powers! And who better to loose them from their tower(s) than an Aquarian ...
Too, thank you for the Macbeth:
At my High School, the English teacher in charge of that play, year after year and generation after generation, was Mrs. Gunlach - a tiny, shriveled lady with scarily arthritic fingers and a quivering, crackling voice straight from the grave who reserved only the Head Witch's speech for herself.
And it was to her classromm that our Principal sent every big, bad actor among us. Because, after watching her play The Witch, nobody messed with Gunny!
And thank you for the whole wonderfully airy and inventive SOTS! It made my day.

AMAZING, INCREDIBLE job on SOTS tribephyl! WOW!
Frankly Tribe, you could have put some work into the SOTS. Having a life is no excuse. I don't know why everybody else is raving about your work. They're probably afraid you'll put a spell on them. Well, I'm not afraid of you. Bring on your minotaurs, necromancers and even jiffypops.
Of course I'm only kidding. This was absolutely great. Exceptional work.
