SirPrimalform: Carradice is doing a good job of being "the voice of reason", but if he's scum then he's not going to want to tip his hand because scum need to win today by getting two townies to vote for me. If he makes it clear too early on that he favours Joppo it could spook people. The "How could you, my two towniest reads?" thing does come across as a little phony.
Carradice: Doc or not doc, I do not need you to misrepresent my words, thank you very much. You use commas, but I have never said those words. My exact words from #1012 have been:
>>My two most town-leaning players.
Why are you doing this to me? I didn't mean to misrepresent you. I simply paraphrased from memory to get the gist. What you actually wrote and what I wrote have the same meaning to me, but apologies if you feel I misrepresented you in some way.
Carradice: It is true that you two have been my most town-leaning players since the beginning. Also the ones
still in play that have been playing most reasonably. Which helps town. Also, note the
OBVIOUS humouristic tone in the wording, made even more evident with the use of italics. So, yes, this is what you get from trying to keep the situation light, apparently. Also, for asking for a clean fight. Maybe the concept is obsolete here, with this party composition?
Also, something to remember. I do not care that much about Joppo's words, but about
Lonzi's words and
Lonzi's actions. If you want to go the meta route: opportunistic scum might want to try their luck, with a likely holder of a power being replaced for someone who just arrived, and with less experience. Seeing that Cristigale claimed cop, the option was obvious. Bingo. So what, it is that easy? And to anyone who does not believe you inmediately, you label them as scum. Great. You can start voting now then.
This seems like quite an overreaction. I don't expect anyone to believe me immediately and I certainly haven't labelled you scum on that basis. I was just asked to rank who of the remaining players I thought were scum and (working for now on the assumption that Cristi is probably going to clear Laser) I was simply applying scrutiny to your posts from today. Why so touchy?
Carradice: So,
if you are bitter for not being given a free pass inmediately, I cannot do anything about it. What I can do is listening to arguments and thinking over them. Laying on your couch while asking others to see you as Town, just because, does not cut it.
No, I'm not at all bitter that people can't see what I can see, I don't expect them to be able to. Now it's apparently your turn to misrepresent me.
I'm not "Laying on [my] couch while asking others to see [me] as Town". What I said was that I'm not going to work my arse off arguing every angle by myself because I know that not to work. Instead, I invited townies to ask questions of me and Joppo so that we can make our cases.
Laser is asking questions. Instead of asking questions, you're just getting upset over my answer to Laser's questions. Laser is being helpful, at the moment you aren't.
