-snap-
As noted in my earlier post today, I do not vote unless I am actually interested in what that vote might bring. I see no point now, and I saw no point earlier. Pressure? Whyever would I need pressure? The entire point of that is to cause a slip or to attract attention. Neither of which would be of any help here. When eleven becomes three, all the mistakes had already happened, and pushing for another is a horrifically unlikely event. Wanting attention is again aimless, because with only three remaining there is little chance of being passed over. Less so with the dismal activity herein.
Mmmm, dear. From this paragraph on I see a very scummy attitude. While this attitude can be kept in the mind, it dictates one thing to me: laziness, or a cover up. Why?
First is in orange. Second is in purple. The whole statement above states that "Oh we can catch scum easy by checking back anyway. We don't need pressure or anything else."
Fallible. Very fallible.
> You think the past days are just to target scum, and today means that you should be sure and
not use your (if town) only weapon in achieving your wincon - the vote? NO. Well, unless you are darn sure, which I doubt from your context, then feel free to delay your vote until the last moment scum.
The entire point of a
vote is to either cause pressure or initiate a conversation with the target - a vote carries the weight of the person's suspicions on the target. It is only pressure when:
a. The voter says it is a pressure vote.
b. It is sensed that the vote is weak - (this is to be inferred and it isn't actually proven, just me stating it)
c. You'd be surprised when people use their votes in a good way. A vote, plus any good supporting argument does help. Anywhere.
I mean, even without voting you can make a good case and a nice argument - IMO, the lack of vote suggests either that you're just poking around and keeping tabs, OR that you're staying neutral or pseudo-neutral on the situation at hand. Your posts don't tell me any of the above.
And for added reading (just for info, obviously), I poke at
BM 34: That one time where I was one scum and by buddybro got run over by a triple decker bus. See how LYLO turned out - people
still pressured.No reads on conclusive evidence? Heh, I daresay I do not. My case on you is weak at best, for I have little to go on. You have been absent, I do not fault you that. My case on Quad is non-existent.
Second case in point. Bolded part states absence of questioning,
NOT due to my absence for I was present for a whole day post-Shakerag busy-ness. You had only asked me little, even very trivial
questions to be honest (Like, what does my 'disappearance' have to do with anything, if it was even a disappearance?),
answered in full. Your case is observably weak,
but what did you do about it? Nothing much. Not a lot of continuation regarding my answer to that link there.
Going back to why I'm not voting after that little tirade above. You might be wondering why I'm not voting you at this moment after I just proclaimed Quad's innocence. Because I still have days to burn and questions to ask. I still am far from certain.
Hmm, days of questions. Which you didn't ask earlier, eh? Stalling for time, perhaps.
Thing is, what persuades me more about Quad's innocence is
TheWetSheep's attitude towards her. While he didn't be specific (Something along the lines of "Oh I believe she's town because"), he
did state reluctance of voting Quad during the yester day.
Sheep
OnyxJew: Say that tomorrow you're alive in LyLo with me and Quad. What would you do?
Hmmm... I would do a lot more searching than previously into you two, as obviously I was wrong, but I think the majority of it would be on Quad.
Reasons in a dotted list,
- More people seem to be suspicious of her.
- Twice tried to find something to pick at about you, miserable failure in both cases. Really need to work on that.
- General feeling that process of elimination means she is scummier out of the two.
More substantial evidence is not available and, I believe, is not really necessary at this time. I still believe it is either Tiruin or NQT.
And this. Seeing your suspicions, What. Did. You. Do?
No vote, or just trying to passively persuade others?
Tiruin, are you pointing most of your questions and post-space at me because I am the only other player to show up, because I seem the most scummy, or because I'm the easiest to scape-goat?
Or mystery door number four, of course.
Its called scumhunting bro. Also, I believe, and did state so, that Quad is townier than you (in a general way).
And there is no fourth player.
In the words of many great... er... creatures of various repute, I haven't the slightest idea. I try not to write when I am incapable of saying which side of the planet I'm on, but some of my best work gets done when I haven't the slightest clue about the goings on around me. Seriously, I was completely out of it. Not truly important at the moment though, just know that statement was more for my own gratification and I think two or three inside jokes if I'm remembering them correctly.
TBH, I do this myself though. Luckily, I keep it out of range of typing distance and in my head.
Quadressence: Tiruin posts a post-it note on your doorstep.Hi there :D
So...I'm just asking. Where are you and why your absence? Yeah, tis' the weekend, enjoy it! Come back soon, ok?
Deathsword: Extend.
