Warning: Enormous Wall of TextAlright, webadict, let me be thorough, just for you.
You began your accusation of Vector with this:
I want Vector and Org gone. It's them. They're the mafia.
This came out of nowhere. I was thoroughly alarmed by this statement, because of how sudden and certain it was, so I asked you about it. You deflected, as follows.
The suddenness of this accusation and the suddenly confrontational attitude is alarming. Tell us why you think Vector is mafia.
Why simply Vector? Why not Org as well? Are we leaving him out of this?
I answer in kind. Then you answer the question:
Why simply Vector? Why not Org as well? Are we leaving him out of this?
Because Org's a punk and I don't care if he gets offed.
Will you now answer the question? Once again, why do you suspect Vector is mafia, and how are you so certain?
I suspect Vector is mafia because he IS mafia. That's pretty obvious. I need him to tell you why he's not mafia. I can't do that, considering I'm not him, nor am I able to defend him.
Your claims of the obviousness of Vector's guilt disturbed me, because if it was obvious, it would be apparent to more people than just you. You defer your evidence to Vector's response, and that disturbed me as well. Not ready to accuse you quite yet, I respond with the following.
That is by far the weakest argument for the strongest accusation in this game yet.
Oiu, Monsieur Obvious. But, I'm afraid I'll need to let Vector explain.
Another deferral. People start getting suspicious.
Webadict: Vector hasn't been on in 2 hours and may not come on again being late. If you're serious about your accusations (you're not even voting for vector) I too would like a better explaination.
From Webadict:
"I suspect Vector is mafia because he IS mafia. That's pretty obvious. I need him to tell you why he's not mafia. I can't do that, considering I'm not him, nor am I able to defend him.
Web, that's Burden of Proof and I can't see how you don't know it. You're making prove that he's NOT scum without showing why he IS scum? You were doing well against Org, then suddenly jump on Vector like this. I TOLD you that I won't let any mistake slide.
Nothing comes out of it, because we decide to lynch Org. Aside from an explanatory note, you end the day with the following:
Well, the thing is that there is a lot to bring up against him. The only problem is that plenty of it could be considered circumstantial at this point. His reaction at this point would have been useful, had it actually been gauged. It has not, however, and is essential useless.
Tomorrow, I will have plenty of proof on him. Today, however, I will not have much to go off of until somebody dies. I will, however, say that the only people I can see as being scum at this point are Org, Vector, eduren, or Jim Groovester, from greatest to least.
I was intrigued by your claim of proof, to say the least. As I said in my previous post, this post made me think that you were the cop, in which case, I could legitimately expect the results of your investigation, provided you didn't die in the night. A tell like that should've painted a giant target on your back, and you're right in that you would be the logical choice for doctor protection.
Anyways, Org is lynched, and the day ends. Night happens, you don't die and BloodBeard is killed. So the first thing I do is bring up your claim of proof:
Anyways, webadict, you said this yesterday:
Tomorrow, I will have plenty of proof on him. Today, however, I will not have much to go off of until somebody dies.
You were speaking about Vector, so I'm curious about what sort of proof you have on him.
And you respond with this:
Fool! We have TWO confirmed townies to go off of. That's what we have. We can use everything they said yesterday, since it is proven they are town.
And everything you just is incredibly suspicious. You're voting for eduren because Bloodbeard was suspicious of him and of you? Or what? Are you saying we should lynch eduren because Bloodbeard was RIGHT about you?
Which is, again, another deflection. You just don't like answering my questions directly, do you? So I respond to your suspicions, ask again, and then you respond:
And no, I have, in fact, NOT answered your question. But, I'm waiting for Vector's response as well.
A deliberate refusal to answer a legitimate question, and another deferral to Vector's response. He's already responded several times by this point, but he defends himself once again:
At long last, some answers to your queries.
[Vector's responses]
Nothing seems out of the ordinary. The only person Vector's posts seem to bug is you:
Thank you Vector, for proving that once again, scum love the easy lynch. eduren is, in fact, not scum, and very much not so.
Once again, no proof whatsoever. Only flimsy accusations of cautiousness or going for the easy lynch. Vector has yet to flinch against your scrutiny. So I flat out accuse you, because you said you had
proof, rather than mere
accusations. The suddenness of your original accusation, the certainty of it, your lack of proof concerning Vector, and that you delivered an enormous tell that the mafia didn't act on convinced me that you were a member of the mafia.
So that is why I accused you.
And now others are wondering why you are so certain that eduren
isn't scum, and they are beginning to ponder that your accusation of Org as well as your claim of his tell was to deflect suspicion away from eduren, who was likely going to be the target of the lynch. Convenient that Org just so happened to be an uncooperative town member just at that time, huh?
One more thing, though:
Oiu, Monsieur Obvious.
Fool!
Perhaps you're not thinking clearly:
Do you always patronize the people who are on to you?
