i mean no disrespect to the mod or any of the submitters here- the clothes from that helloice website look cool, but i'd advise against buying anything from them. the website immediately tries to get you to hand over your email and phone number, and the reviews for that website aren't good. they seem like a shady company.

The reviews are decent. Its very rare to find a completely 100% perfect company.

New Life Series

By Roo

As many of you may know, a new life series started last Friday! For those of you who do not know, now you do. This season of the life series is the fifth, and we see many returning players and one new one!

The spoilers lying ahead will only detail the premise and the players that will be featured. If any of you want to hear about what happened in each person’s episode, go give it a watch! Now, there have been a lot of theories about what this season’s name, theme, and who would be in it- and the time for the big reveal has finally come!

This season is called Secret Life, and boy, oh boy, are there secrets! The life system this time is interesting, having returned to the three life rule, but each life has 30 hearts that do not regenerate. The only ways to regen hearts, with the exception of golden apples, is to complete secret tasks from the Secret Keeper, an ominous stone deity that is near the server’s spawn.

The majority of the life series rules have been changed- there is no boogeyman this time around, and hats have been allowed for only one player, the one player being Scar. Speaking of players, who is around this time? Our usual group of players are back, including Grian, Smallishbeans, Smajor, BigB, Etho, BDoubleO, PearlescentMoon, InTheLittleWood, GoodTimesWithScar, ImpulseSV, TangoTek, ZombieCleo, SolidarityGaming, and Skizzleman!

However, this season we have not one but two returning players, and, to everyone’s delight, one new player! LDShadowLady and MumboJumbo are both back for their second season, having participated in Last Life but none of the other seasons, and GeminiTay has joined the ranks, perhaps deciding that during her brief stint on Limited Life she didn’t kill Etho enough.

In the first session, many tasks were completed, many hearts lost, and many alliances formed (and broken!), and I think we all are looking forward to next Friday when we follow where everyone goes next. Happy life series, and happy watching!

Now onto other news below the cut!

This Week at The Overseer HQ: The Life Series, Murder Mystery Dinner Theater, and Halloween Preparations

By Lydia

The debut of the fifth season of The Life Series has seen a significant rise in activity among The Overseer staff in both their writing as well as their social lives. All of the staff members have been partaking in designing and buying different forms of Life Series merchandise and have made several predictions for who will be out first and who will end in the top seven left standing. Wanting to step outside of the office to participate in the server-wide ardor, the staff decided to try their hands at construction. Setting up makeshift outdoor movie theaters was not something originally part of this year’s plan, but the staff wasted no time in undertaking this project as quickly as possible. The staff was happy to spend the funds they’ve collected from their pickpocketing cats and rats to build digital screens near each neighborhood, as well as providing popcorn, pretzels, and a large variety of assorted candy for each one. The rats even offered to provide new pizzas to attendees who are willing to tip a few diamonds to The Overseer.

A murder mystery dinner theater was held last week by the staff to show off their acting chops and their practical effects skills, complete with a full set and gourmet food. Although the attempt seemed to be their shot to stardom, the reviews of the performances and special effects afterwards lampooned the show as “presented by actors that read their script with all the elegance of barely-literate, glue-eating seven-year-olds,” and “a spectacle that one simply cannot help but laugh at and throw the slop served to them directly at the stage.” Though the reviewers had expected the staff to give up the performance completely in a disheartened fashion, the staff instead decided to increase the number of their performances and make their tickets free to the public, believing that a big break must be coming for them eventually.

With Halloween approaching next week, the staff have finished designing their costumes and have decorated the office with an abundance of skeletons and the heads of various mobs. The staff has also been playing movies ranging from Halloween  favorites from the staff’s childhood to new slashers to more avant garde horror movies. Someone had recommended the movie Beau Is Afraid  and received mixed responses after the staff had finished it, many of them stating that they felt unnerved, fascinated, and deeply puzzled afterwards. The Halloween preparations have not remained contained merely to the office, and staff members who have taken an interest in the occult have gathered temporary clubs among the Citizens who are experts in summonings, ouija boards, raising the dead, and switching bodies with others. Some staff members have noted that this has been a riveting way to bond with their fellow Citizens, though others had found the processes too confusing, and stuck to making candy apples with them instead.

The Overseer staff hopes that you all have a very happy Halloween and thanks all of their readers for their ongoing support. Have an excellent holiday!

DocM: He’s a glowstick now, so if you see a glowing vaguely humanoid figure during the night, it is either Doc or something you should be only slightly less afraid of.

Grian: Please do not forget to feed your Grian during these trying times. Death game enrichment is enrichment, but Grians cannot survive off of that alone, so please remember to mix in some chaos daily.

JoeHills: Joe Hills (PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS REAL). (I love you, Joe Affiliates.)

Pearlescentmoon: Here is your reminder to make soup. Happy Wet Cat Wednesday to all that celebrate.

ZombieCleo: Please keep all small items and limbs secured. Enjoy your flight on Overseer Airlines. Cleo, I’m talking to you. Put your arm back on.

Lost and Found

By Lydia

All of the following items have been brought to The Overseer staff’s office for safekeeping until they are claimed. If you recognize one of these items as yours, please visit us to receive your items, or contact us at lostandfound@thehermitnews.org. Lost items will be sent to Twinkly Trash if not picked up after two weeks. Thank you! *Not a real email address.

Item 1: A treatise regarding the strengths and weaknesses of each Life Series This treatise covers the comprehensive summary of each Life Series thus far and contains statistics in regards to Player deaths and the lengths of each season, as well as analytical details of viewership and audience engagement. The majority of the treatise covers the strength and weaknesses of each theme and how it affected each Player’s strategies and time management throughout each session, based of course upon what the writer sees as a mere viewer of the series.

Item 2: A script for a comedy sketch This comedy sketch appears to have been written by someone from an amateur vaudeville troupe, though the content of the sketch is rather modern, lampooning a new video game that came out just last month. The sketch features lines that insult the game’s stiff facial animations as well as its quests. A specific section highlighting the stringent lawfully aligned attitudes of the game’s characters.

Item 3: A group of Mason Jar Halloween-themed snow globes These snow globes contain depictions of popular Halloween movies, including Jason from Friday the 13th, Sally and Jack from The Nightmare Before Christmas, Jigsaw from the Saw movies, Michael Myers from the Halloween franchise, and Leatherface from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise.

Item 4: A collection of props from a carnival haunted house These props include a fake knife that squirts strawberry jelly out of its handle, a replica of the Freddy Krueger gloves using plastic, three fake machetes splattered with red paint, several dismembered fingers made from rubber and paint, and an amateurly-made puppet resembling Tango Tek dressed as a mad scientist made from papier mache.

Item 5: A jigsaw puzzle depicting Hermitcraft during the autumn This jigsaw puzzle comprises several screenshots of different Hermitcraft bases from this season in a wall of picture frames, all repainted with an autumnal palette. The puzzle itself has 750 pieces and staff members have noted that multiple copies of it have been sold in the Shopping District.

Item 6: An old jazz album This jazz album, Alleycat by Nucleus, came out in 1975 and was found just outside of Stress’s base. The cover depicts either a leopard or a cheetah running through a dilapidated apartment alley into a sliver of a desert depicted in a diagonal section at the bottom right of the cover with several small pools of water.

Fun and Games

This week's fun and games are once again brought to you by Lydia!

And that's all for this week folks! Happy Life Series!

[vavuska]

I recently started following a couple of YouTubers who create videos to sensibilize costumers about fake Ads of products you can find on Instagram and Tik Tok.

I will add the links of the two videos I watched. Part of me is disgusted by the waste of money and another one finds it entertaining. Maybe that's because I'm poor and unemployed. Ahah.

Back to the main topic: it seems that great part of those false brands (they have fake web sites, that usually disappear from a while, after scamming and frauding a meaningful number of people, I guess) copy this brand called House Of CB, stealing the modeling shooting of the clothes sold online by House Of CB. To make the scams more legit, those fake brand steals contents from the review section of similar (and least more honest) Amazon Dupes of popular clothing designs. In this section you can find a LOOOT of photo of people who happily post pictures of them wearing the products, the fake brands steals those pictures and use to make their sites look more legit. Another sources of images or videos to use as base for fake Ads of scam brands are the profiles of content creators, fashion vlogger, influencers or regular social media users who share their positive feelings about their new piece of clothing.

The thing I noticed immediately is HOW in this kind of scams the victims are more than one: in the first place we have the online buyers who has small budget and is scammed of their money; the second is the original brand or the designer, who is deprived of their entrances and of their intellectual property; the third is the content creator or regular social media user who sees their reputation and image trashed by the unconsesual association to a fraud.

It's important to notice that this kind of scam involves mainly Fast Fashion products, which are publicized under fake ads and sent to the clueless buyer, who thought to have found a big deal.

This is important, because fast fashion is widely renowned as an exploitative business model resulting in low wages, poor working conditions, a disregard for workers' rights and negative impact in environment such as water pollution and carbon emissions.

So, this kind of scams give a huge contribution to the exploitation of garment workers around the globe and also damage the planet in wich we are all living.

I want to say that those YouTubers were both from USA and I'm from Italy. I didn't see any fake ads during my Instagram and Tik Tok scrolling, I saw only small enterprises and single creators who craft and sew their own stuff and they seemed totally legit to me. Is this because in USA there is a less culture about costumers protection than in Europe?

I can't answer. Just be careful, buy ethically and support small businesses.

Edit: some reddit users report that they have been scammed by a copycat version website of House of CB, though a fake Instagram ad that reported some 'big sale' happening.

How can I promote affiliate products effectively?

Strategies for promoting products, including content creation, social media, and email marketing.

Hey friend! Ready to turn up the heat in the affiliate arena? You’re probably wondering, “How do I shout out these affiliate products without feeling like a pushy salesperson?” I hear you. Let’s chat about some super effective, straightforward ways to rock the affiliate promotion game.

Build Your Own Hype Squad

First things first, think of your audience as your BFFs. You wouldn’t push products on your pals, right? Instead, recommend stuff you genuinely love, just like you would to a friend.

The Power of Storytelling

Who doesn’t love a good story, right? Share personal experiences with the product. Did it make your life easier? Solve a problem? People connect with stories, and it makes the whole promotion thing way more relatable.

Honest Reviews Are Gold

Speaking of being real, don’t be afraid to drop an honest review. People appreciate the truth. If there are cons, say so. It builds trust.

Strategic Content is Key

Your content is the hero of this story. Whether it’s a blog post, a video, or a social media nugget, make it shine. Deliver value, answer questions, and sprinkle those affiliate links where they naturally fit.

Social Media

Social media is your bestie here. Share your affiliate products on platforms where your audience hangs out. Create eye-catching posts, run polls, and let your followers know why you’re head over heels for these products.

Discounts and Special Deals

Everybody loves a good deal. If you can swing it, negotiate a special discount for your audience. It’s a win-win — your followers get a sweet deal, and you get those affiliate bonuses.

Don’t Forget Email Marketing

Ever heard the saying, “The money is in the list”? Well, it’s kinda true. Craft compelling emails showcasing your affiliate products. Keep it personal, add value, and watch those clicks roll in.

Engage, Don’t Just Promote

Lastly, engage with your audience. Don’t just be a promotion machine. Respond to comments, ask questions, and genuinely connect. The more engaged your audience, the more effective your promotions become.

So, there you have it — your guide to promoting affiliate products like a pro. Remember, be genuine, share your experiences, and have fun with it. You’re not just selling; you’re making recommendations to your digital buddies.
