joppo: I don't, unless I was supposed to get you're implying a " -except-not-tested-at-all". There was no test of him at all because he did not have any choice.
JoeSapphire: I'm interested to see if you can work out what I meant. Could you read post 375 again and see?
Also, if we were to classify maxleod as 'untested' how do you suggest we should proceed with maxleod?
Upon rereading I noticed I forgot to reply to this.
By now I think we are just using different definitions of how conclusive a test must be for a candidate to be considered "tested". The way I see it, anyone who doesn't have a choice can't be considered tested. We attempted to test him and me, and bad luck nullified that attempt.
Post 375 just reads to me the same as it did every other time before.
I later said my position about Maxleod so I see no need to address your last question.
joppo: Also ZFR presented a sensible argument for the theory that Maxleod is fascist.
ZFR: What do you think about its corollary, that Pooka is fascist too?
If we assume Maxleod is fascist, why do you think he acted the way he did, if not to get Pooka selected?
Fascist Pooka was a theory I was entertaining even before your argument. I am trying not to be swayed by confirmation bias, tho it looks like a fit.
On the other hand, even your own theory said it looked like the actions of an inexperienced fascist. It is possible Maxleod is a fascist who did not have a grand plan other than just stirring the waters. If I was playing without previously knowing the game and had rolled F I'd be somewhat short sighted when it comes to fascist strategy. It would take me a while to realize what to do in his situation.
So it is just like you said:
there is a case against Pooka but it is weaksauce.
