Mt Buller is located directly north of the suburb of Subiaco. The western extremity of the Mt Buller suburb (where reside Headless and manangatang ) is named after Eddie Betts Is A Champ aka EBIAC, which utilising the aussie horror-comedy movie "100 Bloody Acres" is referred to as an estate called Ebi Bloody Acres.

So this is a colloquial reference (obviously). The official name for the estate is Ebiaco. Both names (Ebiaco and Subiaco) hail from a long-lost Hindeallan language spoken among the native population who have long since disappeared. The translation into "Ebiaco" is slightly erroneous, as the name originally given when gazetting the region was "Webiaco" but a word-of-mouth confusion caused the "W" to drop off.

Webiaco and Subiaco are cardinally titled references to satellite districts surrounding a central "Biaco", which, yes indeed, is the original name of the region where the village commune at the foot of Mt Buller now stands. Nobody knows when or why the township adopted the neighbouring mountain for a name, but one thing is sure - it wasn't always so.

It is said that the closed commune under the mountain may even have had another name prior - long lost to time - as the term "Biaco" might actually be an acronym applied by outsiders, abbreviating the full description of "Bastards In A Cult, Ohhr".

Recent suggestions to revert the name of Mt Buller (the geographical feature) itself to its original name have met with various roadblocks, not least of which is difficulty in agreement on what the original name may have been. To date, there is no consensus, as arguments differ between Upiaco, Lurchiaco, Streakofduckshitiaco and Thatscomingdownwithsnowonitiaco.

I love this so much Mobbs.

 

[manangatang]

And now you know where half your teammates spend their time

I just wasn’t feeling Werewolf when I tried again.

 

[Wosh]

Jeremias can be my first guest in the new Chalet Mobbs is building me
We'll throw him a Welcome Back party!

I’m going to skip the next couple I think. It’s more of a chat room than a game of werewolf at the moment

'NO chat only murder'!

Murder I like. Chat, not so much.

Sorry Dory_77 but I think the Fat Lady has sung

Me too, let's stop chatting to the Gumbies and just murder them

 

[sante]

Me too, let's stop chatting to the Gumbies and just murder them

I think our Melbourne supporting teammates wouldn’t mind that right now

 

[manangatang]

Bad night, every club has them.


Some clubs have them every week

Just don’t tag DemonJim would be my advice

I’m disappointed in your midfield - I know Gawn went down but your mids have been dog poo. Also, a lack of forward marking options has been a challenge.

 

[Wosh]

Ahahaha and to top it off the lights have gone out

 

[sante]

Just don’t tag DemonJim would be my advice

I might just tag DemonJim only then!

Our forwards outside Fritsch and Kozz have been a problem for a while. That's par for the course
The midfield getting smacked so badly is very disappointing, however

 

[Wosh]

It was probably Mobbs gerbil caused it

You guys should demand a resim

[DemonJim]

We've been terrible though
