mchack: what exactly do you think we could gain from a no-lynch?
Most of what you say doesn't compute for me, it must be the differing dialects as I previously stated. I think what we gain from not eliminating someone is, effectively, a crew member. Rather than losing 2 (odds point to this being what would happen if we eliminate someone immediately), we only lose 1. You're getting ahead of yourself after that, I think (or at least are getting the point of it all muddied with fears of what-if scenarios, don't let it happen, that is the intruders getting the better of you!)
It's about odds and I think intruders have more to gain by forcing a lynch than crew members have to lose from voting no-lynch. I'm merely trying to discuss the option, which seems to generate some negativity just for discussing it, and I find that suspicious (or at least irrational fear.)
JMich: Do clarify if you feel trentonlf misunderstood you.
It's all in the nuances, I suppose. I said it has me "more leaning towards the mentality of more likely" vs. what trentonlf said in his paraphrase of me, he said I was saying "anyone who is against a no lynch today is most likely a intruder?" That's not what I was saying AT ALL. He continues with " I think that would make most everyone here an intruder by that logic. "
Obviously I don't think everyone here is an intruder (currently I just think everyone has the POTENTIAL to be an intruder, this doesn't translate anywhere close to "I think it's possible everyone is an intruder.") And, actually, I don't think he misunderstands me, I think he understands very well, and is trying to twist my words and confuse the situation, as I said. You shouldn't worry about whether he understands me or not, really.
agentcarr16: Just for the record, I will vote no-lynch if I feel like it. Voting no-lynch immediately makes you a target, but I agree with your points.
Good to hear, thanks for sharing. Since I initiated the no-lynch discussion, I realized it has made me a target, but I feel like that is because the people here are playing some sort of game within a game rather than simply trying to logically deduce who the intruders are and eliminate them, which makes me uncomfortable all around and suspicious of them. It's quite simple logic to me: "If you want to eliminate someone from the group SO strongly that you are totally okay even if it is an erroneous choice, then you smell fishy to me."
I'm still on the fence with Ix (the reasons for intruder being high, and the reasons for not being also being very strong, so it balances, which makes me think it is possible he did a very good job of reducing his initial suspicion, which leads to more suspicion.) Moving up the suspicion list for me now are trentonlf, kyrpsyn, and dedeporno. mchack still seems innocent enough to me.)
