This is most likely because he's your teammate but it's still a valid hypothesis even if he's somehow not.

You're only trying to justify your Diiny vote as being based on Wilgy's claim because it's easier to pull off as genuine than faking a reason why you think he is actually bad or at least inconspicuously parroting everyone else that does.
This is ridiculous. Either Wilgy is telling the truth or not. If he is, then I find trusting him to be the best thing to do. Since you're not voting Wilgy, I'm assuming you think he's lying about knowing for a fact Diiny is bad. If that's the case, you should be a lot more worried about him than you are me, but don't let logic confuse you.

I must be really dense today, because I swear to god, I'm not understanding half the players this game.

Two options I've seen brought up:

1. Enrique: Wilgy and Diiny are bad. The former is throwing the latter under the bus by fake claiming something that the real cop knows is not true.

2. Zebra: Wilgy is lying, and taking the most stupid risk I've ever seen someone take (it's not like he can use some excuse that his actions got redirected or whatever) which will be discovered the minute Diiny is lynched, and I'm following him because it's easier to show I'm trusting him instead of finding a real reason to suspect someone.

I'd like to call at least one of you bad, but these theories seem so far fetched that I can't possibly think a baddie would be that crazy to try and pin them on people.

You never gave any reason to why you thought he was bad, and I'd get it if it went just so far, but most of the day has revolved around this issue. I think it's coloured every decision made in the game. If you were lying as a civ, and a civ is lynched, the next people to get lynched are civvies as well, I'm pretty sure about it, and we end up getting 3 civvies dead by the end of next day. I think that's a lousy risk.
Please tell me if you were lying. I think the "scheme" has been going long enough.

Nope, Diiny is red and will hopefully be dead soon.

If this is all a ploy FZ, what makes you think I'd end it so soon? Also, why would I commit to it like I have?

It is not ridiculous, and you demonstrated why my suspicion of you is warranted in this very post. Your trust in Wilgy is an act. If I disagreed with it and nothing more then that's what I would be talking about, but I'm not talking about that. You say that if Wilgy is telling the truth, then trusting him is the best thing to do. Right. If he's telling the truth. It doesn't make sense to trust someone if you're not sure whether or not they're telling the truth, yet not only do you trust him, you're not even trying to make the case here that it's more likely that he is in fact telling the truth than not. Sure there's been discussion that you've been a part of as to what his motivations could be, but at the end of the day you're willing to admit that you don't know. I agree; either Wilgy is telling the truth or not. I'm undecided on the matter, and as I mentioned earlier, I'm not interested in the wine overload. If you were saying that you're willing to trust Wilgy because you think he is telling the truth, that would be different. If you were saying that you're not willing to trust Wilgy because you think he isn't, that would also be different. But you're putting your trust in him despite not knowing that he is being truthful or not, and that's scummy. Here's why.

I have no idea what the hell Diiny wants from zebra. At some point, I lost interest in that conversation. I'm not sure I find Diiny suspicious for that, but this whole Wilgy Diiny craziness is interesting.

Ok Diiny. Since you can't get the fact that I checked you, what do you think of MP's plan?
Last game I was the cop and MP didn't ask me who I wanted to target on day 0, I just got a name and alliance. This is a MM game, so I'm not sure they work the same though.

But if Wilgy is the cop, I can't see him outing himself so blatantly, unless he figures that one in the bag is worth the risk, and if he tries to hint with subtlety, the mafia will know who he is anyway. This way, if there's a doctor out there, he'll know who to protect.
Not sure I buy this theory myself, but the other possibility is that Wilgy is just trying to stir the game and encourage conversation. In any case, I like it a lot better than the Diiny-zebra back and forth
This is your first post. You express a lack of interest in my back-and-forth with me and Diiny as well as some waffliness about whether his responses are alignment-indicative...the same ones you lost interest in. Right. This pinged me a bit, but by itself it's far from damning. I think what's more worth noting is that this is the only post where you even mention Diiny until your fourth post where you decide for vote for him based on Wilgy's claim, and even in this post, you openly express seeing more value in analyzing Wilgy's big bowl of WIFOM. Considering that you're trusting Wilgy enough to vote for Diiny, you would think that you would at least show some amount of interest as to why and how Diiny might be bad, yet you are not only disinterested in this apparently confirmed scum's content, you are actively ignorant of it. And then there's the post that more or less confirmed your alignment:

Even after your unwarranted trust in Wilgy, you still express waffliness in Diiny's alignment as you vote for him. A chance we need to take? That's what this boils down to.

Okay FZ, I was reluctant to call you out on misrepresenting my argument when it comes to what exactly I think Wilgy is doing in this game in the last post I made, because I feel like I call people out on that too often when it's not true and/or warranted. But this is just too much. Let me go back and take a look at your magnificent concoction of assumptions and straw man arguments.

Alright, so your assumption (and you even admit, it is in fact an assumption) that I think Wilgy is lying stems from me not voting for him? I could write a piece that Ayn Rand fanboys would appreciate based on how illogical that assumption is, but I'll move on instead.

So to recap, you've gone from an assumption about one of my hypotheses based on me not voting for a particular player, to representing that assumption that you have made as an "option" that you've seen me brought up. Calling this misrepresentation wouldn't even do this justice anymore. This is lying, plain and simple. I don't think Wilgy is lying and I don't think he's telling the truth either. As I've already made clear earlier, what Wilgy is doing is pure WIFOM to me that could go too many different ways to make any assumptions about, which makes it all the easier for baddies such as yourself to use a fake perspective on what he is doing to your advantage. And you are not following him, you are faking following him. If you can't see that aspect of my argument then that means you've most likely been caught red-handed, because bottom line, that IS the argument itself.

Again, you're (deliberately) wrong on two fronts. One, I am not saying Wilgy is making this up. I'm just not saying he isn't making this up, either. Two, I am not saying that you are bad for thinking he is genuine, I am saying that you are bad for putting your faith in him when you yourself are not only open to the possibility that he is lying, but open to the likelihood of it. "Either he's telling the truth or he's not." This theory makes sense because aside from your unwarranted faith in Wilgy's claim, you have a complete lack of interest in Diiny being bad (or good for that matter, because as I've said, you're quite waffly on this player that you are voting for) otherwise. Wilgy himself knows what I'm "doing" so you're not helping yourself by pretending that what I'm arguing makes no sense.

Zebra, I'm going to say this one last time, if you still think I'm bad, it's your problem. I'm done defending myself:

1. My ping of Diiny was not enough to make me vote for him. Which left me with Wilgy.
2. He's either lying or he's not. Duh
3. Unlike you, I'm saying that unless he's a crazy crazy man, he isn't faking. I've given all the logical reasoning I can to show you all why I think he's not lying, which is why I ended up following him and voted Diiny.
4. I've tried every possible way I know to make sure he's not a "crazy bastard" just trying to make sure everyone follows him without solid reasons, manipulating them into believing he does.

2. Duh indeed. So let's trust him for no reason!
3. Again, this doesn't excuse your deliberate lack of interest in demonstrating any thoughts of Diiny that go beyond Wilgy's claim.
4. Again, defending your reasoning for trusting Wilgy is not the same as defending that this trust is not scum-motivated. In other words, you're only done defending yourself because you never really started.

1. My ping of Diiny was not enough to make me vote for him. Which left me with Wilgy.
2. He's either lying or he's not. Duh
3. Unlike you, I'm saying that unless he's a crazy crazy man, he isn't faking. I've given all the logical reasoning I can to show you all why I think he's not lying, which is why I ended up following him and voted Diiny.
4. I've tried every possible way I know to make sure he's not a "crazy bastard" just trying to make sure everyone follows him without solid reasons, manipulating them into believing he does.
1. What's that? You were pinged by Diiny? This is new, originally regarding Diiny's back-and-forth with me you never used the word "ping".
2. Duh indeed. So let's trust him for no reason!
3. Again, this doesn't excuse your deliberate lack of interest in demonstrating any thoughts of Diiny that go beyond Wilgy's claim.
4. Again, defending your reasoning for trusting Wilgy is not the same as defending that this trust is not scum-motivated. In other words, you're only done defending yourself because you never really started.

1. So what if I never used the word ping? I'm telling you that all it was was something small that I noticed, which wasn't enough for anything. Call it what the freaking hell you want. My first post of the game was about how I didn't get what the hell Diiny was talking about, but I don't know if that's enough to make me suspicious of him. I continued to say that while that is so, I find what Wilgy is saying interesting and that was what I focused on.

2. No, I trusted him for what I thought was a completely good reason: I call it "what are the odds of him faking that claim"
3. FFS, I didn't have any thoughts on Diiny other than what I've stated. Do you want me to fake some just for you?
4. My number 4 was to point out that I was trying with all my power to get to the bottom of things by questioning Wilgy and trying to understand his motivation.


All this said, I was sure the day ends today for some reason.With another full day left, maybe Wilgy thinks he hasn't taken it too far yet. If he is lying, there's still another day to fix it, so it would lessen the bastardness level :P

My work here is done. If the rest of town doesn't see the value in your lynch, that's their problem at this point.

I will say that I agree with you that I think it's unlikely that there was a successful scum peek. I will also say that I'm considering voting for you today.
:flamed:

Anything else? On, you know, anything that's being discussed.

Now I'm really off to bed. I can fight with anyone tomorrow... :P

linki: zebra, I just hope for the town's sake, that people are smarter than you.

Good night

But this is just too much. Let me go back and take a look at your magnificent concoction of assumptions and straw man arguments.

WTF does that supposed to mean?
You're only trying to justify your Diiny vote as being based on Wilgy's claim because it's easier to pull off as genuine than faking a reason why you think he is actually bad or at least inconspicuously parroting everyone else that does.
This is ridiculous. Either Wilgy is telling the truth or not. If he is, then I find trusting him to be the best thing to do. Since you're not voting Wilgy, I'm assuming you think he's lying about knowing for a fact Diiny is bad. If that's the case, you should be a lot more worried about him than you are me, but don't let logic confuse you.
Alright, so your assumption (and you even admit, it is in fact an assumption) that I think Wilgy is lying stems from me not voting for him? I could write a piece that Ayn Rand fanboys would appreciate based on how illogical that assumption is, but I'll move on instead.

I must be really dense today, because I swear to god, I'm not understanding half the players this game.

Two options I've seen brought up:

1. Enrique: Wilgy and Diiny are bad. The former is throwing the latter under the bus by fake claiming something that the real cop knows is not true.

2. Zebra: Wilgy is lying, and taking the most stupid risk I've ever seen someone take (it's not like he can use some excuse that his actions got redirected or whatever) which will be discovered the minute Diiny is lynched, and I'm following him because it's easier to show I'm trusting him instead of finding a real reason to suspect someone.

I'd like to call at least one of you bad, but these theories seem so far fetched that I can't possibly think a baddie would be that crazy to try and pin them on people.
So to recap, you've gone from an assumption about one of my hypotheses based on me not voting for a particular player, to representing that assumption that you have made as an "option" that you've seen me brought up. Calling this misrepresentation wouldn't even do this justice anymore. This is lying, plain and simple. I don't think Wilgy is lying and I don't think he's telling the truth either. As I've already made clear earlier, what Wilgy is doing is pure WIFOM to me that could go too many different ways to make any assumptions about, which makes it all the easier for baddies such as yourself to use a fake perspective on what he is doing to your advantage. And you are not following him, you are faking following him. If you can't see that aspect of my argument then that means you've most likely been caught red-handed, because bottom line, that IS the argument itself.
This post is biggest bunch of zebra shit I've ever seen.

especially considering your current vote is on probably the least suspicious player in the game at this point, including yours truly

I do. Especially since he doesn't.

I think if you wanted to you'd just say it. Instead you're dodging questions from both me and Zebra.

So I repeat

Anything else?
