Staying with JM for a moment. These are the 2 quotes from him I pulled before, but I goofed and put them together in reverse order.
Ice, don't you think its kinda early to already be "watching" 3 other people?
I was just wondering why you thought you should be watching those three after only a few posts in the thread. maybe its just my nature, but I usually like to look into people a bit more than what would be a "check-in" post and some other banter.
I've restored them to the proper sequence here. (Happy now, JM?)
........ to re-ask the actual question I asked that JM never answered. I wouldn't mind an answer on that, btw.
JM, isn't that what watching certain players is?....... just another way of looking into people more? What difference does it make whether someone (Ice in this case) lets us know who they are watching?
Here are (much) later posts from JM about this.
I knew something weird was going on in this post with the quotes...I don't know where you have been, or how quickly you skimmed through the thread, but that second quote in your post happened BEFORE the first. the first quote is post number #101, and the second is post #50. it was a response to Ice's response to my question to him. to me, it seemed odd that he was coming up with a list of possible scum that early, after only 4-5 pages of play. i then explained why, stating that i like to take more time and build up a better case before coming all-out with a scum list. Kash, messing up the order of posts to build a case is very unlike you...
My response.
Ok sorry. I pulled a ton of posts as I read through last night just before midnight. Tried to group them together into a few posts I answered/questioned. Didn't mean to jumble those up from you, but yeah it was late and I was sleepy.
I don't think the order made a great difference btw in what I wondered about.
Not only was JM unsatisfied with this, he proceeded to accuse me of doing it on purpose to make him look bad.
But it did make a big difference. posting those in that order makes me seem like a hypocrite instead of just honestly answering rebuttal questions.
if you pulled a ton of posts last night, then you should have known the order no matter what; that means you read the thread. those posts were very far apart...about 50 posts. knowing the level that you usually play, i would have to say that planting that little issue was deliberate.
So tell me, JM. When you typed that out, did you actually stamp your foot or pout while you were doing it?
Seriously, JM........ Surely you and I have played past games where I was on the mafia team before. Didn't I do a much better job being evil than THAT? If your claim were true, my brilliant mafia strategy would easily be unraveled completely merely by you or someone else pointing out that the 2 posts were reversed.
Curses, foiled again!!!!! lol
Looking back at the mix up and the actual question asked along with your weird, defensive, accusatory, over-reaction..... It still reads the same to me both ways.
Now, isn't it more accurate to say that you pulled your little hissy fit for two reasons:
(1) To make sure everyone noticed that Kashta screwed up the order, which means I was sloppy, and that suggests I must be scum... right?
And, (2) to also suggest that the big bad meanie, Kashta, deliberately tried (somehow) to set you up. Oh, you poor hapless innocent townie!
The last game I remember playing with you.... I pegged you as evil when I was innocent. And you were shocked that you hadn't fooled me. You posted after that game you were so sure you'd fooled everyone.
You wouldn't be feeling a tad....... ahem... intimidated, would you.... remembering that game too?
Just maybe, you DO have something to hide and you're wondering how well I can read you as scum. But you really needed worry too much, JM. Your team could always hit me whenever you want. Then I'd be gone and you could feel "safe" again.
Let's just get this out of the way right now, since I'm going to work again in just a few hours (without sleep) so I need to vote before I leave anyway.
I vote to lynch JM.
JM is scum. He's just not
hypocritical while being scum.
