First: I didn't quote his whole post
Yeah, sorry my mistake.
MeMe wrote:but I do agree with the parts I did quote, though I seem to interpret them differently than you do.
You seem to be reading the whole thing as an action plan & I'm reading it as an assurance & a statement of frustration. So, basically, I'm saying "me too" to wagoning to ensure a lynch AND being tired of this endless nothing-happening day.
To be clear: I was not saying that I was interested in a pre-deadline lynch (something I think would be pretty impossible anyway -- seven needed votes??).
That's reasonable

like the idea of a soupfly lynch.
That is a good reason. I don't claim to have read particularly carefully -- I assume you said that at the time?

claims to have read the thread and to have (at least at the point I voted him) no leading suspects.
That also makes sense. Why not say "alrighty then" when, for example, I suggested Sir Wario or Sikario8, or when Tarhalindur suggested gorckat?

And here I thought it was me replacing in.

<_<
. But I'm fine with deadline, I hate games that go a long page length, because no one takes the time to go back and read them. Game theory wise, I'd rather have a day 1 lynch after 5 pages than after 50.
MeMe wrote: -- take that away, and I think we'll go right back down to "almost dead" status.
Again, not sure that's true, but I also support the deadline staying in place.
MeMe wrote:Loaded language much, neko?
1) "simply because you find him useless" -- indicates both that it's only my opinion, rather than fact, that he's been unhelpful AND that useless isn't that big of a deal
2) "really think" -- indicates that I might have, at this point, acted contrary to my actual thoughts
3) "not care whether or not" -- well, I don't even need to explain that to anyone
Let me ask
you
: do you really think that being present but unwilling to pick a leading suspect when 1) everyone's been asked to do so and 2) it's been pointed out we're under deadline is
townish
behavior? Or could it be scum waiting to be "convinced" by other players so that he need not make a decision for which he must take responsibility? (
Bear in mind that Arakorn has since voted gorckat -- but only after Guardian called his post "remarkably like scum talk."
)
Wow, when you put it that way, Arakorn lynch seems rather appealing. Why not bring out more of those ideas earlier?
Not sure a Arakorn lynch is more appealing that a DR lynch, but I understand where MeMe-town might be coming from re: Arakorn.
MeMe wrote:Or -- in words you might more readily recognize: do you really think that players have no responsibility to be helpful? I mean, do you really think that Arakorn is town? Do you not care if he's scum?

Do not lynch me.
