this argument was stupid and i'm giving WC scum points for itWhite Castle wrote:I went back and checked how you signed up. You signed up as you said.
Lowell in Open Queue post 734 wrote:/in for anything
However, you have presented no evidence to support your claim that “most people just write /in” I am not willing to take anyone's supposition as fact.Lowell post 49 wrote:No, I didn't know what I was signing up for. I went to the queue and wrote "/in" like most people do.
This is a marginal, and wrong, tell. Try harder.
I disagree that this tell is “marginal and wrong.” In the context of what you wrote, marginal means “barely within a lower standard or limit of quality”. This tell works some of the time, so I agree that it is marginal. However, to make a blanket statement that this tell is wrong strikes me as scummy. The only way your statement makes sense is if you applied it to your specific situation, but the context indicates you are attacking the tell itself and not applying it to your situation.[url=http://s45creations.wordpress.com]I own a design studio[/url] :)-

Sorry, but I saw that post as a mere attempt to get some of that weight of suspicion off of you. Hard to explain what I mean (I've been sitting in front of my keyboard for a few minutes trying to formulate my opinion...), but basically that message was an attempt to rid suspicions of you, in my opinion.millar13 wrote:LETS RIDE THE CONVOY!

@hewitt: I'm sorry, but I want to revisit an issue. The scenario we just discussed didn't go as I'd have liked it to. Here's what I should have done:
First, White Castle said words: "I can see two options (if I didn't do what I did), A and B."
What I read was this: "I can see three options. A, B and the unstated option C, which is the one I actually took. A and B are bad options, and so I will not do them."
Hewitt: "You are not choosing between A or B, the only two options."
Me: "Something isn't right about what you just said, hewitt." - brain turns off and doesn't quite figure out what the wrong thing is until now
Me: "Let me try this again." - this post happens - "There are three options,andit is possible to be in a situation where both of the only two options are poor ones. Do you wish to restate yourself in regards to the post by WC?[url=http://s45creations.wordpress.com]I own a design studio[/url] :)-

I don't understand your analogy Wall-E. White Castle has laid out two options and it looks like he is skiddish to do either because in his opinion he'll look bad either way. So either he unvotes and he "let's him off easy" or he keeps his vote and "doesn't keep his word". My advice was to do what you feel necessary if you feel he's scummy then keep your vote on him and continue your case but if you don't feel he's scummy anymore then unvote. I don't think it would look bad at all as long as you explain your actions accordingly and thus there should be nothing skiddish about.White Castle wrote:Post 51 was Lowell, not me. Your question strikes me as anti-town because an answer leads down a dark path. Suppose I answer "Lowell could have said X". In Lowell's next post he says X. I could keep my vote on him or unvote. I think either option looks bad. (Either I let him off too easy or I didn't keep my word). All that said, it is hard to come up with cases and defend them early in the game.
I don't really understand where you're going with this third option thing Wall-E. White Castle doesn't state a third option.ShowRECORD

After, re-reading the thread,Vote: Skitzer
The way he characterizes things makes me suspicious i.e.
In reference to the policy lynch proposal. Something about "sadly" and "policy lynch" doesn't mix.farside in Post 24: Sadly, that almost sounds like a good idea.
The word constant is a bit of an exaggeration imo. Note that Adam Smith also says something along these lines though.Ugh, White Castle, your constant linkage to the Wiki makes me feel weird about you.
Not liking this for obvious reasons.Netlava in Post 68: Eww. Everyone off the ol' Lowellwagon!
Bolded part is what I don't like.White Castle in Post 75: You make 2 wiki uses in 8 posts sound like nothing.I may use it once, but usually never in a game.
It wasn't a wagon yet when I joined.But then... White Castle in Post 77: I pose the same question to you that you posed to me. What about the other 3 that quickly hopped on the wagon?-

I don't think anyone jumping on that wagon is a good enough to reason to lynch them. It is a good enough reason to be suspicious of them however.ShowRECORD

I forgot I was in this game and I posted everywhere but this one.Jazzmyn wrote:Farside is seriously lurking. She hasn't posted since April 1 on this thread but she's posted 50+ posts on other threads since then. Seems fishy.
Adam hasn't posted in almost a week, but he hasn't posted elsewhere on the site in the interim.
@Mod: please prod Farside and Adam.
Regards,
Jazz

I think it was a BW vote without reason which I find the most scummiest thing so far.-

Wall-E in Post 100: Why? I definitely agree with hewitt here: saying all you've got is better for town rather than holding stuff back.
Jazzmyn in Post 105: Sure, but that sounds more like an easy out to me. It's all WIFOM now though.
Netlava in Post 111: I'm sorry for my cadences, but they seem to be correct in their statings. First quote was joking, second quote was exaggeration, but it is a lot more than I've ever seen anyone do it before. The third quote looks OMGUSy. Fourth quote doesn't make sense, and fifth one may have been inconsistent, but you were/still are on the bandwagon at one point.
