The reason I insisted is that you didn't answer it, nor mentioned why you didn't answer it. I didn't see your previous response as addressing an assumption in the question at the time.MordyS wrote:I don't really understand what you're asking. EVERYONE is a possible townie at the moment. So yes, I suppose that's what I was trying to do, for the reasons I outlined earlier. But he is also a possible scum. So I don't really understand what you're trying to get at.Phelan wrote:Were you trying to manipulate a possible townie into voting for the same person as you?
(And your insistence on phrasing the question this way is a lot like asking, "When did you stop hitting your wife?" There's an assumption in the way you ask the question and every time I try to address that assumption, you accuse me of dodging the question.)
I was also annoyed that you removed the context of the question. It was about trying to manipulate someone into voting, not manipulation in general, and it seemed different without the context.
What I was trying to get at, is that trying to direct people's votes seems wrong and looks scummy to me.
I was also mostly interested in your reaction to the question, more than the answer. If you had answered straight away, I would not have pushed as much.
However, you kept not answering for quite a while, even though I pointed it out. That didn't look townish to me. It looked like you were dodging the question. Also, I read somewhere (probably another game) that you should not let a question go by unanswered, and it made sense.
I've just noticed that we only have a day until deadline.
Since I don't know if I'll be able to post before it, I'm leaving a vote.
Vote:Cojin
Though I still think Mordy acted strangely for a doctor, I'm tempted to believe him.
That leaves Platypus and Cojin.
The first is lurking close to the deadline and I still have a gut feeling that he might be scum. Nothing conclusive, though.
The second for almost repeating Mickey77's mistake. We had gone after Mickey a lot for the sudden hammer, and subsequent lynch of a townie, and Cojin's second post here puts Mordy at L-1.
Since Cojin and his predecessor have claimed vanilla, at least we know we're not losing a power role.
I'll try to come to the forum tomorrow, in case something else has come up and another lynch has better reasons.
I'm really tired now, so I hope this post makes sense.
