I was mostly kidding, but your quickness to jump to his defense has been noted.
Also, scotmany: what if someone told you to vote for yourself? Would you have done it?-

Of course my counterargument was crap. That's the part that was a joke. A real counterargument is the one I'll offer now:
It was fairly obvious who was going to give scotmany this 'random' number to vote, Cogito was the only other one to post before him and was still in the thread. Just seemed like an awfully non random way to random vote, letting someone else pick your votee. I'm not saying this is definitive, nowhere close, just examining every possibility.-

And there isn't that much behind it, which is why i didn't vote you. It just looked a little weird, and not the best or safest way to get a random vote.scotmany12 wrote:Still, I don't see any logic for jive accussing me.
It could be I'm just being paranoid, but on Day 1 it pays to be paranoid just to start discussion.-

A) Saying that posting jokes is scummier than posting nothing.
B) Only going after LG for this. If you're so opposed to "contentless joking, why did you both intially and continuously attack only one of at least three or 4 people who were doing it at the same time he was, all while you posted <i>nothing</i>?
C) Claiming that LG is trying to appeal to authority. WTF?
D) Trying to justify a self vote by saying that it is totally defensive WIFOM and that there's nothing wrong with it. Double WTF?-

EBWODP:
A) First, why don't you explain how being lighthearted before any real content has come up is scummy. Note I never even said that your lack of posting earlier was scummy, it's that you attacked LG for not posting game related content on page three when you posted nothing on page three at all.
B) That's not a justification.
C) No, it's not appealing to authority when it's a person's first post of the game and completely non serious. The fact that you even bring this up shows how far you're reaching.
D) Proven by who? You?-

My point was that I liked Chaotic Diablo's evidence more at that point, and that the way you said it seemed like you wouldn't care if he had proved it. That looked extremely scummy to me.TheJiveMachine wrote:Wasn't intended to look scummy? Would have never guessed :p
Anyways, I didn't feel the need to respond since livin had basically said what I was thinking: I don't think C_D proved his point, andsaying he did when I hadn't seen anyone agree with him and I certainly didn't seemed absurd.
If he had proved it, I would have conceded that he was right. But from my point of view, he didn't come close. I wasn't saying it wouldn't have mattered if he did prove it, I was saying it was incredibly arrogant of him to say he proved a point when he was apparently the only person who thought so.-

Did you even read the conversation I had with DoS about this?-

You aren't starting discussion though, just trying to divert attention from yourself.-

Yep.
100% wrong. I said you hadn't proved your point and were arrogant for assuming you had. Do you even read my posts?CD wrote:Later, you state that your point wasn't that I hadn't proved it, but it's because I was "arrogant".-

Whoaa where did this bandwagon come from? Apart from C_D's (bad) reasoning, I don't see any explainations beyond "hypocrisy", which does have some merit, but I'm certaintly not the only one here who has been. To tell the truth, (and I'm aware this isn't a great defense) when I made post 158 I was thinking I was in another game, talking about someone else. I hadn't been around and was basically dropping a placeholder post in all my games, and got people mixed up (also the reason I FoS'd him while I was voting him - complete mistake).
Anyways, I still don't like C_D's self vote, or attacks on livingod for hypocritcal reasons, however this recent band of bandwagon hoppers raises a few more eyebrows.Unvoteto reread.-

I think DoS is scum.Vote: DoS
I think StD is playing either reckless or scummy. Leaning towards reckless.
I find it odd that DoS and C_D both 'missed' TSQ's breakdown post and also happen to be the two I most suspect. It could be coincidence, but it doesn't alleviate the scummy vibes I'm getting from either of them.-

Sorry for absence, I was at a party all weekend.
It feels like people are coming up with reasons why DoS is scummy, while my wagon is saying "TJM is the better play" over and over with no substance. I'll admit I've made mistakes, but I've done my best to explain myself. I can see why this could just be considered backpedaling, so I can understand that I'll be suspected. What I don't get is this faction that's trying to force me and DoS into a game of claim chicken. It looks more like scum trying to find power roles than town trying to avoid a mislynch.-

It's when I wandered into the Monkey's Head in search of LeChuck's ship. I guess my flavor is basically (instead of the penultimate section of SoMI) that I found myself lost just as a civil war in the depths of hell broke out, and now I'm just trying to stay safe until it blows over. Yes, it's not a Diablo character, but I suppose it's supposed to be the comic relief role.
