Lumpen posted:

Keane why are you posting as if you assume CL is Town? Your point seems a bit overblown, but your conclusion is weird in not allowing a "JakeP is excusing and defending his Scumbuddy" hypothesis, which hit me as a more likely interpretation.

In this exchange I deem Keane more Scummy than Jake. Seems like a put-on. CL still a better lynch.

That's actually a good point.

gently caress, that's a really good point.

Your argument was that my speech assumed him as town. If your case was I was defending a scumbro I wouldn't have argued it because I could see where you are coming from on it, but thats not where you came from at all

I'd been happy, and I was happy still. For all to be accomplished,
for me to feel less lonely,
all that remained to hope
was that on the day of my execution
there should be a huge crowd of spectators and that they should
greet me with howls of execration.

I told you I was going to lynch a lurker today.

They are contradictory in the sense that only one can be true. They are not contradictory in the sense that both acknowledgeand rely on your hedging. Lumpen's point made an additional possibility that was reinforced by CL's later post.

Lumpen's point is that JakeP was deflecting away from you, it is pretty obvious and I don't know why you wouldn't see that.

Because it doesn't make any sense to me and that's why I was hoping you could lay it out for me. I was at -4 in a very slow moving game. Deadline is a day and change away. The two votes on me were Lumpen who has promised to vote out a lurker and DBD who followed suit. I had said I would be here to post today. You put all that together and I'm in no danger unless someone was going to throw down a dayvig on me.

From there, you're saying that a scum Jake with me as his scum buddy decided the best course of action was to come into the thread and defend me.

Absolute best case from him doing that? No one notices it. If I show up as promised, then Lumpen's vote would be moving (and since has) and DBD's likely will too since his vote was "Good idea Lumpen." Life moves on and people forget that Jake said it. Worst case? Jake gets called out for it. It is a "Medium risk no reward" play if we're scumbros.

I feel like it's an insult to me to say that I would sign off on a play like that haha

If you want to say he was trying to build town cred for if I ended up flipping (which I believe was your first point), go for it, but in no way is Lumpen's trying to link the two of us together a better point.

Sure, why not?

If my post is not effectively going to get my point across, I'm wasting my time. I type whatever comes to mind then edit out the rambly bits to make things concise. Don't need to have someone read ten sentences if I realize I can get the point across in two.
