Orangebottle:Two questions, though: a) is NativeForeigner now a full-on player (i.e., there are seven players left, not six)?; and b) Even though the multi-lynch is gone, we can still vote for many people, right?
I would like to know why that makes Native dirty liberal scum, sir.
As a long time follower of the process of rooting out Communist sympathizers, as championed by the great late Joseph McCarthy, NativeForeigner is diirty liberal scum until he convinces us otherwise. That is the default position. It's not my questions
to the moderator that make him scum. It's his arrogant presumption that he can just jump into the race willy-nilly, after the rest of us have suffered through a long and arduous campaign, that make him initially suspect.
My vote is there to pressure him to come forward and express his positions clearly, to give us his views on the campaign so far, his views on his fellow candidates, and to fully
claim his allegiances with respect to Social, Religious and Economic issues. If he wants me to remove my vote, he'd better make good use of the floor.
Plus, just
look at him! He's a
media personality. He's a freakin' reporter! He's obviously in the pocket of Hollywood and the liberal media, and thinks that just because he's been on the tube a few times, people should listen to him.
I say to him: No, sir! You cannot pretend to be able to govern just because you know how to wear makeup and smile to the camera! You must show that you have a vision for the future of this great country!
McNoble: Please claim your stance on religious issues publicly.
Are all men not created equal? Why give McNoble a chance to claim, and not Dariush?
Certainly not! I am a true believer in American Exceptionalism. All
Americans are created equal, sure, but Dariush is a suspected communist sympathizer, probably fresh from Moscow or Havana, and is not entitled to the same Constitutional Rights as those of us blessed to have been born in the greatest nation on Earth.
[
OOC: If you inspect someone, and it comes with a scum result, you claim it right away. Town, not so much. Issues and alignments are not exactly the same, but I judged a similar principle applied.]
I will cast a green vote for someone though. If they make it worth my while somehow.
The SuperPAC with which I cannot legally coordinate will award you forty thousand imaginary dollars, and a candidacy for congressman in a half-forgotten county of Idaho, if you green vote me.
Why are you flavor-grubbing for green votes?
I direct my esteemed colleague to my response to Tiruin in my previous entry. However, I will add: he did say "if you make it worth my while"; how am I to do that? Impress him with my scumhunting technique? deep analytical skills? unbridled brillance? He knows them, whatever I do here wouldn't change his opinion, and he stated he doesn't care whether we find scum or not, or the result of the game. What's left, if not flavour?
Or is your question why do I want green votes? I give you George Mallory's reply: "Because they're there!" If they are to be bestowed, I'd like them to be bestowed on me, sure. Should I be campaigning for someone else?
However, that raises an interesting question:
Moderator: we players cannot vote green today for each other, however, once we have accrued green votes by the audience, is there a mechanism for us to transfer them? Powder Miner voted Tiruin; could Tiruin, if he thinks it's best strategy, before the end of the day transfer that green vote to, say, me?
Dear Mr. Bottle, I hope I have answered your questions to your satisfaction, and I hope to have your support during this long campaign to secure the nomination, and then lead this nation to a bright and prosperous future, for all!
In God We Trust,Bookthras.
