This doesn't make sense to me; need your help parsing the thought process here.In post 339, Duchess wrote:Norfolk's first post reads to me almost the same as when scum feigns confusion about a Night Kill upon day start. He is overcompensating in his next post in that he ignores the implication that Whemestar is casting suspicion his way, and instead casually replies as if he is known town. He made his first post, 3 people immediately condemned it, he realized how scummy it was, and then tried to throw in a fake townslip to compensate.
How is Norfolk's entry the same as when scum feigns confusion about a nightkill? He didn't "feign confusion", he just said that he was glad he didn't get the gun because he didn't want responsibility which is a common line of thought.
Your fake townslip argument is where it goes off the rails for me. Ofc he responds as if he's known town; he's writing from his perspective and if he does otherwise it's more a matter of style than alignment. He doesn't really have to respond to Wheme's suspicion because Wheme didn't voice any actual concerns for him to respond to and yes multiple people ragged on him on page 2 or whatever but I don't think that translates to attempted fake townslips like you're implying here.
