ZFR: You still don't get it, do you?
supplementscene: Even if he did...
ZFR: Can you not understand what I'm saying? Forget about Zephyr and Saphiros. *You* don't believe that he made a mistake, and let's say I concede: he
didn't make a mistake.
How on earth does he make a slip then? He just woke up, and decided "I'll tell everyone ZFR was the intended target!". How on earth would that happen. Unless he banged himself on the head. Repeatedly.
So can you answer my question. How did he slip if he did
not make a mistake (which is what you're claiming)?
*If* you believe (A) he made a slip (which as I said is plausible), then you must believe (B) he made a mistake. Yet you're believing A without B. Now that is just not possible unless blotunga is an idiot.
So my theory is Day 2 starts and Blotunga has prior knowledge. He skimreads Joe's flavour (or doesn't even read it) and sees there hasn't been a night kill, then one of 2 things happen:
1. Blotunga reads Trent/Joe's exchange that there was no kill and makes the error of assuming ZFR is mentioned at the beggining of the day, because he knows ZFR was the night kill target and assumes it's been mentioned.
or
2. Blotunga skimreads 'Saphiros' and thinks 'ahhh he must be talking about ZFRs flavour name' because he knows ZFR is the intended target.
You and I can't reasonably know what went on in Blotunga's head, but you believe that:
3. Blotunga didn't have prior knowledge, read there wasn't a night kill, skimread Joes flavour, reads 'Saphiros' and thought 'ohh ZFR must be the player that was targeted because that's his name in this game.'
My belief is prior knowledge is more likely to influence an incorrect assumption than no prior knowledge but I will concede I could be wrong and it could be 3, I just think 1 and 2 are more likely. Neither of us will find out until end game but in the meantime I'd refrain from referring to it as 'idiotic'. If a mistake is made we don't need to stoop to personal insults. I think I've outlined how the thought process could unravell though.
