Star Wars - The Great Hunt =Game Thread=

I was actually referring to what you said to Your Star. Look at the post I quoted when I brought it up and who you were talking to.

To be clear, I did not believe the Eco was really trying to get you investigated because you're godfather or whatever. Thought never even crossed my mind. The way he went after you was based on an exaggeration of what you said (something that I thought was pretty innocuous) and that seemed dishonest to me. A little like he was trying to appear like the old town Eco self. What made me suspect you and that the whole exchange might have been an act between scum partners was your insistence that he was town despite what looked like blatant dishonesty.
 
I understood the grammar fine. You failed to comprehend the implications of my statement. You are so arrogant that you think that what you feel is generalizable to everyone.

I have specific problems with specific actions by specific players. I've outlined each of those players and actions.

Do you have anything to offer besides meta-observations?

Oooohhhh... the Great Tucker remembers this! This player is behaving differently! This other the same! Now we know what everyone is!

Enough. Give it a fkn break and let's play based on stuff that has happened this game. I have. I have plenty of suspects and specific reasons why. What the **** is your problem that the only thing you can do is this BS meta routine.
 
You seem to be ignoring the fact that scum have been given alternate claims, from which they could presumably deduce the same.

I'm not ignoring it. I pointed out that you might be a scummy Luke Skywalker, and how that would explain your nonsensical "quasi-luke-claim" statement and subsequent freakout for being asked a simple question about it.

If you didn't have the pre-civil war stuff wrapped up in your comment, I would assume that the above was the case and I wouldn't have unvoted for you. But the pre-civil war argument seems too bizarre for you to have just made it up as a cover for what you have deduced through getting the role of Luke.

Why are you so bothered by meta? It is a common practice.
 
Once again, you fail. Equating being negative with being a dick is your fail. When I was a dick to YourStar about me needing to "convince" her, I was entirely within my rights as she had given me an impossible task. When I was a dick to Thor about the Tucker+eco scum team, I was within my rights because the idea is beyond impossible and the likes of worring about being struck by lightning.

When I was a dick, it was to point out serious logical flaws. Also, I mixed a little humor in there.

eco = good dick
Tucker = bad dick

Understand?

How is twisting people's words, trying to make them fit into your narrative, and repeating that flawed narrative over, and over hoping that if people read it enough they'll start to think it's true good for town? And how is that being a "good dick"?
 
You fail to understand that opposing an idea is different than being negative in general.

And you're being negative in general. Opposing a single idea is just one example. Another example was becoming exceptionally negative over me not knowing what you meant by the quasi-like claim thing.

In fact, you've played this game in a hyper-defensive manner.

Because everything the great glorious eco does is good, no matte rhow bad it is, and anything that is not done by the great glorious eco or to the great glorious eco is bad. Duh.
 
I'm not ignoring it. I pointed out that you might be a scummy Luke Skywalker, and how that would explain your nonsensical "quasi-luke-claim" statement and subsequent freakout for being asked a simple question about it.

I'm not convinced that Luke would be scum. I think the setting is around the time of the Battle of Corseca (spelling), before the civil war. The badguys during that time were hunting Jedi because they (and the federation) had helped against Grievous' home planet and because Grievous had been implanted with mental notions that the Jedis were the source of his perceived injustice.

They have? How would you possibly know that if you're not scum?
 
That being said, you can't possibly know that bad guy characters are being put on town unless you are either town or a good guy character that is scum.

## Unvote Ecofarm

i suppose it is important to note that some good guy characters are town. this is the circumstance in my case.

probably we're in an episode 1 dynamic if you both are being truthful.

Pointing out that the chances of you and I being a scum team are about the same as the chance of being struck by lightning is a positive for town. I'm sure.

I didn't see that movie. I read the wookiepedia entry about my character and some of the associated characters from that entry.

I think I can reveal my character's name without revealing any power role that I may or may not have. That may shed light on the setting.

I've seen blatant dishonesty from eco in every game I've played with him. It wasn't until he did stuff that was "out of character" for him that I began suspecting him.

Then he made his semi-role-claim, and his hypothesis about being pre-civil war, which was either a very well-designed ruse from scum or honesty from him. The latter seems more probable to me than the former.
 
My Character is from The Empire Strikes Back. I don't think this is a prequel theme.
 
Why are you so bothered by meta? It is a common practice.

I'm bothered that the only thing you have, against your only target, is meta. While I have gathered suspicious things about several players, outlined those things and my reasoning behind those suspicions, you have targeted only me and only with meta.

Targeting one person the entire day, and doing so entirely based on meta, is absolutely bad play.

Luke wouldn't exist outside of Anikin's ballsack in that time.

Fair point. You have been on the receiving end of all this before.
 
I think the Jedis are the bad guys and X Factor is displaying his scumminess.

I don't think any character was created in Empire. I'm pretty sure all of them existed previously.

So you're bothered by the fact that it's day one? I've got being overly quiet as well. That's all I've got, though.

I think you're more bothered by the fact that the meta I do have is related to you and that you have no real defense for it.
 
Luke wouldn't exist outside of Anikin's ballsack in that time.

Then it could be BallSack Luke, I dunno. I'm not presuming a pure setting. Here's that to which I referred:

Red 5 standing by.

After that, I started noticing other players making quotes from or references to specific characters. Sure, it could be nothing, but it gave me something (movie references) to look for in posts.
 
Eco's also being "negative", something he has repeatedly claimed is something that only scum would do. That's the second major behavior pattern that is inconsistent with his "townie" persona.

This is consistent with the one time I have seen him play a mafia role. FWIW...
 
Pasch said so in the sign up or herein.

Pasch said scum would have alternate claims in this game? I may well have missed that. I'll look through the thread again.
 
So you're bothered by the fact that it's day one?

Don't use that as an excuse for 2 weeks of nothing but meta BS against a single player. I've noticed a few suspicious things. Let's look at your case, for example:

1. Upon the suggestion that you be investigated, you reply "I don't have a problem with that".
2. You kept pressing me about the quasi-claims, when I worry scum could use this line of examination against us.
3. You refused to go against the ridiculous claim that we could be a scum team, instead allowing the implication to ride and claiming to be powerless against it.
4. Targeting a single player for all of the two weeks and the only evidence being meta.

There are other things, but that serves as an example of suspicious things on Day 1 for one player - you.
