Do you think it's possible that the support you got is imaginary?

Need I quote those who agree with investigating you?

Now that that idiocy is out of the way, why are you dodging the questions about your change in gameplay?

I think I addressed it here:

Oh, wait... that's right... you can't support my plainly obvious evidence because you've already established that everything I claim is a lie. If you now recognize the obvious truth, you'll be reversing policy.

I know what you can do: claim that my having pointed out the obvious truth regarding you and I being a team constitutes a break in playstyle and thereby I am now suspect as scum. I must be lying about trying to get you investigated! That's the only fkn way you're on my team. Deal with it.

It's not may fault that you've painted yourself into a corner such that any response causes your house of cards to fall.

That's what you've now done. Just as I predicted.
 
Also, there is a situation where scum would push for an investigation of their teammate. If the teammate is the scum Godfather, the investigation would benefit scum immensely to have that player investigated early on.

We both know Thor's theory is wrong, but your "defense" against it doesn't disprove it. As I said before, when people use the strategies that you use, no real defense can be mounted because anything can be twisted into proof of the claims.
 
I say we lynch ecofarm and find out if my theory is correct.
 
i see the eco thing falling under one of several scenarios :

1. he's town, hoping to get Tucker (as scum) or anyone else to say something incriminating. this is the explanation he's running with, and data is generally good for town. however, when it comes to one player, there's a point of diminishing returns.

2. he's scum, and is trying to turn up the noise in the signal to noise ratio. the last time he was scum, he was uncharacteristically quiet, and got nailed for it. if he is scum this time, the error is overcorrection.

3. both he and tucker are a scum team.

4. both he and Tucker are town, and scum is sitting idly by, befitting from the distraction.


i honestly don't know. my initial read on him was town; he's directing the game exactly as he did when he was town last time and pretty much the opposite of how he behaved as scum. however, eco is pretty smart, and would not make the same mistake twice. there's something mildly plastic about his town appearance this time. not enough yet for me to change my read, but enough that it made me wonder.

Stop lying. First, there is no "obvious truth" about us not being scum teammates to anyone else but us. Second, it was your different behavior that caused my read to change.

Of course there is, I've pushed for your investigation and players have agreed.

Even if other people did agree, if you and I were scum teammates, and I was the scum godfather, that would be a good strategy for scum teammates to run with.

So the only thing that's actually obvious is that you are, yet again, totally wrong about something.

Obviously impossible.

at one point, it seemed possible. however, given the extent of the exchange, I find it pretty unlikely.

Dude, I suggested Tucker be investigated and got ~3 players to support the proposal.

i don't really care who we investigate. all would provide data. i don't have a "man, i am dead on certain (insert player's name here) is town" read on anyone other than myself. this is mostly because it's day one, and we don't know much.

How could a scum push for and gather support of a teammate being investigated?? That's ridiculous.

i could see it being tried as a bluff, but it's very unlikely that it would go this far.

Suggesting it at all is too much. I think getting one or two players to agree to the investigation of a scum teammate is way over the line. Not feasible. Not reasonable. A turd of an idea.

I'm not saying it proves I'm town, I'm just sayin' it proves Tucker is not my scum teammate.

The question is, why does Tucker refuse to recognize this and instead plays it ~"well, there's nothing I can say that would make us look less like teammates". Hey, Tucker, you can say that it's fkn ridiculous for a scum to promote and gather support for a teammate's investigation. Why doesn't he? Why must he insist that he is powerless to oppose this ludicrous scenario?

So who is your scum teammate? :D
 
There's an echo in here. :lol:

If I was scum, and Tucker was not on my team, why would I give a fk about us being implicated together? I wouldn't. In fact, I'd do just like Tucker is and be all ~"well, there's nothing I can figure that would help dispel this accusation, I guess we're just stuck with it".

The Godfather scenario I already described proves it isn't ludicrous, genius. Holy **** you are being dense in this game.

You are not retarded, so I have to assume that your strategy is to pretend to be retarded for this game, but to what gain?

You don't care about being implicated together, you care about being lynched. The way the scenario is running down, they are trying to lynch you in order to prove their hypothesis. And you have a problem with being investigated, and only scum has a problem with that.

More importantly, though, you are behaving differently and then avoiding it like fat kids avoid spinach when challenged on it. You are also ignoring the hypothetical situation that I described which makes thor's assertion about us NOT ludicrous. It seems very scummy to me.

With 12 alive, it takes 7 to lynch. Day 1 ends at the end of Thursday, May 16th. That's a little over 32 hours from now.

Just a heads up, I'm moving this week, so there's a distinct chance that I won't be around to post a flip until Saturday. I'm not extending the deadline, because you guys always do stuff at the very last minute anyway.
 
Ah well, no hurry then, I guess.
