Part II:
I was put on scrutiny for some things, but there were 3 which I found excessively absurd (and I have nothing against valid accusations):
1) ZFR because I called him "Vanilla" and not "Town", when mentioning how he was killed 3 times in a row before (I accidentally thought it was 4 for some reason, so you may use it against me as well);
> I asked ZFR to elaborate
2) AFP (You) for putting my own words in my own round brackets (a slip from would be scum day chat?), but only after a followup post from ZFR a re-read of my post for a second time;
> I compared it to ZFR's reasoning, your points about blaming seemed kind of valid
That is why I said to you "Gosh, your argument voting me is even better than ZFR's (calling him vanilla, not town)" in my 1st defense post #399 to which you replied but ignored how I compared it to ZFR's (I'll explain this part below)
3) Pooka for "manufacturing" how I wanted to sound worried and saying (a slip from my absent mind?), event after I stated that it was intentional, it was not a linguistic issue and that I'm not THAT stupid;
> I compared Pooka's reasoning with yours for the same reason: it's absurd from my point of view
That is why I said to Pooka: "That's gold! I thought after AFP's accusation reason about "round brackets" no one would beat it, but you actually overdid it.". And don't worry I'll get to Pooka later.
Facts:
I definitely put words into brackets
That's how I like them: to be occasionally placed in round brackets
Other people did it too, you can see at least 3 examples for the first 50 posts.
Anyway you dismissed my posts #399, #400 about absurdness of those accusations, in post #409 you even said: [/i]"I may be slightly under the influence currently, but I'm pretty sure it all makes decent sense lol!"[/i]
My third "defense" post #410 (+EBWOP #411) to which you replied, among other thins, in post #462: "I'll be the first to admit that this is hardly a rock-solid case, but I've got to pursue any potential lead to see where it takes me. At this point I still suspect zazak, I'm increasingly alarmed by how many lurkers we have, and there's one other person I'll address in a moment."
Unfortunately you were unwilling to provide a suitable day-chat slip example then.
It was your third vote which you put on gogtrial because he voted on me agreeing with your "observation". Again, a sudden change of mind, gogtrial was on your side after all. And ZFR's vote was still on me at that time, what's the rush? So I pressed again in post #471 and then you dropped your charges again in post #481 you said
"After a combination of fairly reasonable responses, seeing that it logically didn't make sense and also gogtrial's shenanigans, I unvoted him.".
For some reason I think that you were under the impression of ZFR's post #472, where he said:
"I liked Cadaver's defense to AFP and gogtrial's votes though. Something in it struck me as genuine Townie." It's a pure speculation of course, but for me it looked like that first you waited for ZFR to say that he was not the first to say that hammer incident might not be accidental and put a blame on me for being the first one and for using brackets. And when ZFR unvoted me by voting gogtrial and stated his reads on me as Town you suddenly dismissed your reasoning through why you thought I might be scum.
And I don't like it at all because I think Town should do a detective work and not backing down so easily. Either you respect ZFR's opinion so much or afraid to bring his attention on yourself.
Anyway like I said you dropped your charges in post #481 and in post #483 you stated:
"Cadaver (He's made mistakes that I don't think scum would make, but he's also seemed overly defensive)" That is exactly what I meant when answering Zazak's query for my list of suspects. I'm not sure I ever "defended"
A_Future_Pilot: You keep saying that the reason I thought you were scummy is because you wrote something in parenthesis. It's what was IN the parenthesis that was the problem, and it had absolutely nothing to do with how you wrote it. I've already explained that (462, 481). Beyond explaining it though, I reasoned through the possibilities and came to the conclusion that my initial suspicion didn't make sense, and I unvoted you (vote change in 462, reasoning in 465 and 466). I really don't understand why you continue to cast shade on me for my flawed reasoning, when I was the one that pointed out its flaws, and removed my vote.
So no, I wasn't keep saying about how you named me a scum using "parenthetical" reasoning, I replied to Pooka's accusation which I found to be absurd and provided him the "round brackets" postins like he asked in post #763 (apparently you both are not very keen on reading all the posts).
And I wasn't continuing in keeping shade on you or something. But now you attracted my attention. You reaction was too genuine and nervous for a good Town in my opinion.
A_Future_Pilot: I'm really not sure why you think I'm strange lol. You've been overly defensive in that you've continued to defend yourself against me, long after I've admitted my reasoning was flawed.
Like I said above, it's not the case. And "overly defensive" was taken from post#483 for Zazak's query to put into my list of suspects.
If you would be so kind as to show me where exactly I was overly defensive in my previous posts #399, #400, #410 (+EBWOP #411) and #471, and especially where I, according you, was continuing my defense against you in my later ones, I would much appreciate it. A_Future_Pilot: My intention isn't rolefishery at all. I'm frankly just very confused by Cadaver, in part because of how much role speculation he's done this game.
You say that but you're not elaboration on it, why? By all means, please. Don't worry I'm not going to claim anything.
A_Future_Pilot: I think this is a perfectly reasonable thing to be suspicious about. The fact that you relate it to your straw man of my argument makes it even scummier.
That might be it. The fact that I relate it was Pooka's personal request. You said "even more scummier" however I don't remember same reaction when I compared your reasoning with ZFR's. Are you afraid of something? Or was I less scummier back then so it wasn't worth mentioning?
A_Future_Pilot: 3. Pooka / Cadaver - I'm concerned Pooka has slipped under the radar for a lot of the game (at least he has for me). You're not a hard read either way in my book. I feel like Cadaver is overly defensive and has made multiple mistakes, but overall I still think he's probably town.
Yes, thanks for that. Pooka is not that hard to read after all. And if not for Pooka I'd vote you that instant.
Your voting history so far (please let me know if I missed something):
Microfish (368) > unvote Microfish (383) > Cadaver (396) > gogtrial (462) > GR (625) > unvote GR (684) > GR (795) > yogsloth (846)
My preliminary conclusion: your votes are somewhat erratic; your reaction for mentioning your name is nervous; you tell me about your reasoning through why you thought I might be scum, but all I see is how fast those accusations were dropped; you care too much on what other people think especially ZFR, you named me as "overly defensive" but for some reason I see you to be exactly that: an overly defensive person who likes to put a lot of suspicion on a lot of people (I used your own wording).
I don't think you're scum yet, but you sure is trying hard to look like one. And I find your next posts to be very interesting. You claimed yourself as Town even, very interesting indeed. Please give me time as at the moment I'm in the middle of something.
