I'm having a hard time believing you could gloss over Rarity's posts like that. Especially given how active you've been.

And you have some pretty strong opinions for someone who's not reading the thread.

it's step 2 in the plan after AC flips scum? That's how connections work. If AC doesn't flip scum, or we don't flip AC, I'm not going to push for Squiggly's flip before ACs. Squiggly being scum is built upon AC being scum, and unvoting the bus vote they put on them.

Way to misrepresent my stance entirely! Ceyton is probably scum here as well.

I am reading the thread, I'm just not actively reading and remembering everything because there is a poo poo ton of people posting, so I'm engaging where I think it makes sense and not registering for long term recall things that don't.

This is also, incidently, and incredibly tenious read on squiggly, not a sure-fire lock like AC is.

I think Ceyton's point here is very fair actually, but... I will keep this in mind, cause if you're town after all this could be an attempt to tip things off Rarity onto you. I'm getting a little nervous that this could be happening.

It's more timing than anything else. Lots of people have said they are suspicious of me at this point, so plopping down a vote makes it *look* like you're not joining a bandwagon.

I don't understand where Amni's "Lunch Apostate at all costs" stance comes from, AC's post history has a few odd things early on but it really doesn't support a tunnel this hard at all.

Yeah, not helping. Explain properly.

Honestly at this point I'm feeling like this is off Amni's usual game that they might even be a jester or executioner or something. Not that that's going to stop me from voting them, but their posting is just that strange to me rn.

Would there be a flavor that'd fit for something like that in the game?

One of the pillars of your case on AC is that she moved her vote to Rarity, who as you say, was one of the vote leaders at the time.

You don't feel the vote leader is worth thinking about?

Like I said previously, it's fairly apparent that Amni's not reading AC's posts all that much. They probably just saw that early post and thought "Cool, somebody we can mislunch!".

If you seriously think I would take advantage of a learning disability to win a forums game then you don't know me at all.

Yami's post implies I think it would be "easy" to get AC executed because they have a learning disability. That is a line I'm unwilling to cross when it comes to forum games.

I think Yami meant the early post, as in early game, the thing that first got you on her case way back when the game was first starting up, not the first time AC mentioned the learning disability thing. I don't think you'd do that either.

Holy poo poo Amni what is happening. There are scum scummy loving people in this game, Amni isn’t one of them. I’m nearly positive this is town Amni, I’m nearly positive AC is scum, and this is a big nasty plot to push against scum.

AC’s dropping of a learning disorder feels very hard like they’re looking for a way to get Amni off their back. AC’s ‘posting-frantically-six-times-in-a-row’ thing on Amni’s light pressure is so insanely scum_caught.mp4.

So let’s figure out who’s being scummy and pushing Amni.
