deconstructivist humour, while sometimes funny when done well, is intellectually lazy. it is a prime example of having your cake and eating it too, there's always another layer of irony to retreat to should someone not get the joke, or be offended by it.

yeah sure, why is rack scum, you keep claiming you "wrote the book on rack scum" and started the wagon...

Noodle strategy, esp boring noodle strategy. These questions don't really need answers and more amount to him trying to think of things to say rather that saying things he thinks needed to be said. Rack, are you an alt? and alt of who?

is that the post you think "wrote the book on rack scum"? If not, can you quote it for me.

Sure, sheeping with everyone else, hopping on a wagon without reasoning = not good

going off looking at others while a wagon is building on someone else, giving the town more to work with - town/good posting.

What part is hard to see?

Also, I still want you to tell me exactly where I said the case was amazeballs. I said it was good to see people looking elsewhere and do their own work on who is/could be scum

this is exactly my point. Its pretty common knowledge that the earth is round (or elliptical <3 vijay) but you don't want to answer the question or provide a comprehensive case as to the shape of the world. Just like its fairly common knowledge that shotty is a vi. I think the whole "NERO DIDN'T EXPLAIN WHY SHOTTY IS A VI!!!!" is a hella horrible case. And I'm pretty atleast one of you (KK) if not both of you are scum. You might say that my question wasn't game related and yours was (though I think NN actually asked).
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.

Ah I see where this went off it's hinges. I read your post as "CCV's case is good" instead of "CCV making a case on somebody else is good". My bad. Although mastin was already on KK.

Except it isn't common knowledge. I don't think Shotty deserves to be PL'd. NN didn't know at all.

And you were asked to provide evidence, and you failed to comply.

You dodged the questions.

It's the laid back, take-it-as-it-comes nature of your play. I don't think it helps town at all. Even if you think your reasons are obvious for voting someone, explaining why you voted for someone (even if it's just briefly) can convince others to jump on with you and apply more pressure.

Why does drmy (drmyshotgun) need to be vigged?[/quote]

Well. To put it frankly I said this because he's shown himself to be absolutely anti-town in the way he approaches this game. The only reason why I don't want to vig him now (postclaim) is because scum will (probably) handle that job later. Until then I'm going to basically ignore his posts.

Kahn wagon is bad.

drmyshottyizsik is town.

Nero is being dense... can't determine alignment though. :/

you do know that NN knew exactly why a Shotty pl was being talked about so he knew and I'm guessing most of the players IN THIS GAME also knew making your "it isn't common knowledge" a bunch of bullshit.

You were asked to provide evidence.

You failed to do so.

That is all that matters.

@Redff
"wrote the book" was hyperbole. I meant that I called him scummy early on. I didn't mean it in a boastful way -_-

That post is one reason, but his following posts aren't redeeming.

shit posting, such as his meaningless response in the next post.
rack wrote:KK: Nero is currently null-leaning-scum.

CCV: Please. We're just getting started. And we're a hydra, which you obviously missed in the signup thread. Please pay more attention in the future.

LLD: no u

The catchphrasing is a bad reaction to someone that accuses you. and If he's really getting started, then where is his actual content then?

Avoiding his accusations,
rack wrote:This post, and all posts up until now, are me, Head A.

Head B is supposed to be coming along soon to extract us from the shitstorm I've managed to cause.

And no, we aren't revealing our heads, so get over it.

Needing the second to defend you is bad, but the whole "oh I screwed up" part isn't how town members should react to getting attacked either. Town members should want to communicate with others, not blame it all on being a bad player.


fabricated reads.
rack wrote:Head A (again--Head B seems to not be responding).

Khan is completely scummy for his dismissal and reaction on the last page. Even Mastin saw it.

Mastin, speaking of which, is solid town now. I'm very familiar with his town game, and this is getting much closer to that.

Some other people I will keep my eye on are:

drmyshotgun
vijay
Mini-Lib
and of course, LLD.

Kinda busy right now, sorry. Will try my best to post more soon.


VOTE: Kublai Kahn

No content here, and the voting khan because at the time it had more votes than anyone else. Lack of explaination on the reads, and bothers to post but then excuses himself from content. I don't like the buddying of mastin either. He obviously knows several people here but refuses to claim who he is. I don't like meta reasoning, but really how do we know whether or not he's credible or not. Either way, he's looking for friends.

and my posts aren't contentless, you just disagree with the content.

So you didn't write the book or really provide any reasoning until I pressured you to. Would you say that's more accurate?

Objection. The earth is in fact elliptical.

In seriousness, LLD dotpoint why Rack is scum please. Thank you.

An ellipse is a two-dimensional shape. Earth is a three-dimensional object, which makes it officially designated as an oblate spheroid. Thanks for playing the earth science game!

you wanted me to so I gave it to you. I feel most of the latter stuff has been said in some form in the rest of the thread, so I found it unnecessary to provide it.
