Oman, do you think that the first person to place a non-random vote is scummy if they provide reasoning for it, and not scummy if they don't provide reasoning? Isn't that almost contradictory, because if they don't provide reasoning, then how would we know it's a real vote and not just another random vote. Rage and Netran were both random voting additional players. If I voted armlx without reasoning, it would be assumed to be another random vote. If I vote armlx with reasoning, it becomes clear that it's a real vote.
His posts speak of a lack of desire to provide concrete opinions. Also, meta arguments from Alvinz play a big role here, which he can't answer but I still find meaningful.armlx wrote:What have you seen from skitzer really?I really think rage and skitzer are scum. Maybe OGML, but I haven't seen enough there yet.
Can you explain this?His posts speak of a lack of desire to provide concrete opinions. Also, meta arguments from Alvinz play a big role here, which he can't answer but I still find meaningful.
I can agree with this.
I also think Crazy is town, so I think the wagon on him is "an easy spot for scum to
hide" if you ask me. Considering Rage/Skitzer are my top two, it doesn't surprise me they are hitching a ride on that Crazy Train.
The first part is basically my read on the situation. When I asked him to provide analysis, he chose to pressure my motivations for that analysis rather than actually do it. The meta argument is basically based on Open 70 where alvinz as scum lurked all game and most of his posts were basically just him promising rereads, which was pretty much the entirety of his contribution to this game. Also, he avoided posting in this game a lot while posting semi-frequently in other games on this site.armlx wrote:Can you explain this?His posts speak of a lack of desire to provide concrete opinions.

No. I am suspicious of Crazy for reasons independant of his interactions with Oman. The opposite is not true. My logic for thinking Oman is scum only holds up if Crazy is actually scum, not the other way round.Goatrevolt wrote:Also, you think Crazy/Oman are a scum team, however you think Crazy is scum partly because she is defending her scum buddy Oman. Doesn't it logically follow that you should then be voting for Oman, since that logic only holds up if Oman is actually scum?
