| trashleg said: Vote: A Bad Clown 1) reasons: these look like they have everything to do with me, but thats just incidental i think. anyway, i've written it i 3rd person because "trashleg" in this could quite easily have been anyone, and i'm not voting for him for like revenge or anything. There was a LOT of nonsense going on at the start of the game, everyone was in on it. I personally was suspicious of the amount of conversation between hephaestos and noname, but i think its just random banter. everyone's excited to start a new game, after all. trashleg asked a question, hephaestos answered then voted trashleg (i think that was a joke, since he was demonstrating something and trashleg hadnt actually said anything of importance or even really relevant up to that point). noname made a reference to heph "knowing" that trashleg was an alien (i think that was because of the convo about heph knowing deep, dark secrets). 2) A Bad Clown (ABC) jumped on that, asking "does that mean we should?..." 3) ABC said he'd wait for noname to check people out. maybe its just me, but i dont trust ANYBODY in these games. not until they're dead. and why did ABC later jump on the fact that heph had spoken a bit to trashleg, but not to noname? does this mean that ABC is trying to buddy with who he sees as a respectable player? i dont know. i dont like buddying. but thats just me. ABC calls trashleg his prime suspect (why?). then repeats later that he is still suspicious (in a bigger post about a few things). noname questions ABC about his big post, but not the part about trashleg. then ABC mentions again, he is suspicious of trashleg AND hephaestos. 4) ABC: suspicious of hephaestos because he said ABC looked funny and was trying to get people to vote for him. 5) i'm sorry if i wasn't really "in" the game last night, im facing the prospect of losing my flat and all my furniture and having to commute a 100mile roundtrip next semester. i know its not relevant to this, but my head's been up my arse for the last 26 hours or so. |
1) I did try to read it as if it were third person; however, I question why you'd even bring up it not being a revenge vote.
2) How do you know ABC's "Does that mean we should?..." post wasn't just continuing with the joke. He did later follow up a reply of that with another joke.
3) ABC then said he was waiting for prof, not noname. Though I can understand why you'd think ABC meant he was waiting for prof to check out people, it's now clear that was a misunderstanding and ABC meant he wanted to check out prof himself.
Also, ABC said you talked with Heph a lot which I also thought to be true, and though I did notice you talked a little with noname, it wasn't nearly as much as with Heph.
Furthermore, I don't know where you'd get the idea that noname is a respectable player, but not say Heph or anyone else. I didn't see any of ABC's posts as buddying up, so I feel like you're making an argument that doesn't fit because buddying up usually is sign of scum and so you might persuade others to vote also.
4) First, I don't think it's odd that he said a few times that you were his prime suspect/suspicious/whatever. I've now mentioned a few times that I've noticed a post which makes me think Wonk and ABC could be scummates, but I'm not certain enough about either of them yet to go over something which could very well be nothing at all and thus just a distraction.
On to his stated reasons. He said the photoshop thing was just a joke. I think it was more about your username. "2" is a lame reason, but you honestly think a mafiosi would believe they are convincing others with a reason like that? Lastly, 3 of the 6 posts before you revealed the breakup(sorry btw, see below) were quotes of Heph and another without any quote was about wizards when Heph was joking a lot about lizards. Still, while I'd say that his point was true, it's another lame reason. So given how bad his suspicions of you were, I find it quite odd how overly defensive you became.
Also for someone that seems so bothered by ABC not giving his reasoning for being suspicious of people, you later state that you're increasingly suspicious of ABC but give no reason, and I don't see anything in the ~2 hours between your vote and the linked post that would raise suspicions further.
5) Finally, I am sincerely sorry for any hardships going on in real life. Losing a flat and furniture as well as a 100mile roundtrip commute sounds absolutely horrible. I hope things work out somehow, and in the short-term I hope you get some good news to lift your spirits.
