Hmm, maybe that was a conclusion I drew after the fact.

Somehow, this exchange was helpful to me. Thank you.
You're welcome? I think?

Why is this not a vote? C'mon, I'm a big person. I can take it.

[quote="In post 84I don't think you should "be willing to sheep" "for now"
The overuse of quotations here is strange. Like...

1. When you say "be willing to sheep", are you trying to say that sheeping in general is bad? Scummy?
2. When you say "for now", are you trying to say that there is a correct time to sheep and an incorrect time to sheep?


[quote="In post 84and at the same time put someone at L-2.[/quote]

As votato correctly pointed it out to me, I did no such thing.[/quote]

So you regret your vote now?

Sheeping is fine but not at the end of the wagon. Quotations are gods gift to humanity, don't knock it.

This is tunneling but for now i think it's town tunneling

Think my answer was pretty clear, Not sure what you don't get about it. Why would leave a vote on Quick when i got an answer i liked?

if you think this is not an answer, then i will ignore the rest of this conversation because it's not going any where.

If I regretted my vote, I would've unvoted. I haven't.

Also, I'm pretty solidly in the middle of the wagon if I recall correctly. 3rd out of 7 is hardly the 'end' of the wagon. So by your statement, what's the issue with my vote?

Here's the progression:

Puppy votes for someone

Puppy later moves that vote to Quick in order to pressure him to answer a question

Puppy then both loves and hates Quick's answers, and unvotes

I'm asking why you were comfortable putting your vote in play prior to asking Quick a question but not after.

The questioning of your vote and calling it a "wagon" when I had an RVS vote on Puppy seemed disingenuous to me.

If votato's vote(71) was L1 then your vote(63) would be L2 if you were the vote before that. I'm not going to repeat my objection.

he was near the end of the wagon?

Seems to be playing similarly to the last game I played with her in (it's technically still ongoing, but we're both dead and flipped so I'm kiiiiinda comfortable talking about it). She was town in that game. So I don't see any reason to not trust her.

, assumes a towniness of your part that I don't feel is shared by the rest of the players.

Like, even if this is true I'm not sure I understand the objection. If it's a 5-to-lynch wagon, third vote is dead center on the wagon. Saying it's "at the end" seems kinda arbitrary.

You're the one that announced the L1 vote. Maybe I was wrong for assuming you had done your research?

You shouldn't "ask yourself to spew town", you should just do things that are pro town rather than go around looking for people that think you are town.

Just don't understand the question. U want to know why i unvoted without immediately putting another vote out? i just did, no particular reason.

Just don't think this line of questioning is going to lead anywhere productive. Welcome to keep at it if u want, but u sound like town Blair to me and i think u're wasting ur time if this is the argument u want to be having with me.

We could be arguing over why you're not sheeping me instead!

I'm not sure I agree with that. I would say that it just leads to different kinds of WIFOM, but we can table that theory conversation for endgame after we win.
