For the record, I didn't get what you were referring to here, either, although I found that uncertainty intensely satisfying. I thought maybe it meant that you didn't want to vote with Lewwyn. It's weird that you have "zero doubt" that Bigger would connect this to your "blind spot" post in the last game's lurker thread, because the connection seems less than obvious to me. More importantly, why would he feign ignorance about it? If he's scum, what's the harm in just acknowledging this alleged blind spot?
While I'm blissfully seeking clarifications, I'm also wondering what exactly Lewwyn meant by me "not helping" with my vote for Mattimeo. Does that mean I shouldn't have voted for him? I haven't convinced myself that he's scum, either, but I think it's a fine place to park my vote for now.

This also felt like a bit of a cheap shot, to me. I'll gleefully award a scum point to Uberfish for this one.
You'd miss it because you were still alive when it happened. He responded to the point in question and we had a several post discussion about people's blind spots in general. It certainly appears Lewwyn remembered it. Anyway, the sum total of his reactions seemed suspicious to me, not just the lack of acknowledgement, as were pointed out by Serdoa and Lewwyn as well. Am I saying I think I've got him dead to rights as scum? Of course not. I'm saying I think the sum total of his behavior to this point has been erratic, which is as much as we have to go on at this point.
Your leaping to his defense is noted, though.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Not so much a leap, as a happy bounce! My general exuberance got the best of me. I did give him a chance to speak for himself, first.
In any case, I am just questioning your attack (which, it is true, was supported by Lewwyn). Serdoa's attack was entirely unrelated to yours, as far as I can tell. I can see why you're tempted to lean on him now, but you didn't say anything about that in your previous post.

I didn't acknowledge it because you didn't mention it. You mentioned me trying to stop Lewwyn's attack on Zak, which was just nonsense - hence my "what?" response. I'll respond to it now: I probably do have a blind spot for Lewwyn, but don't see what that has to do with anything that has happened this game? Are you saying I should suspect Lewwyn? Are you saying I do suspect him? This all seems like you're throwing a bunch of random crap against the wall that doesnt have anything to do with. Are you hoping I'll get flustered and make a slip up (ok, I've used that strategy effectively before for scum hunting), or are you hoping I'll get flustered and appear to slip up so someone else will build a case against me and you won't have to? I'm not sure, tbh, but I'll keep my vote here until you convince me otherwise or a more clear scum steps forward.
and please explain how I behaved erratically, that appears to me to be an easy accusation to make can slip by unnoticed without any evidence. SO, provide some evidence please .
Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.
Let's not to read too much into my first post here - there was a motive, which I've explained and will again:
I have to make a first post sometime.
I wanted to make a first post that wasn't a pure joke, so I culled from our discussion in the lurker thread.
That post had nothing to do with what Bigger said previously in this thread.
My objective was indeed to gauge reactions - both of Bigger and Lewwyn.
That's really it. Since then, nothing has really happened beyond Bigger reacting and people reacting to Bigger, so I don't have a new line to go down. If someone else wants to develop a new line of conversation, I'm all ears. You can't expect me to do all the work around here.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?
thats all fine and dandy, I'd do the same thing. Just try not to make stuff up . I like putting stuff out there to gauge a reaction, I've done that plenty in the past too. I don't like you telling me what my reaction is before I've even had a chance to react.
Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.
This certainly feels like an interim game. I can't in good conscience vote for Bigger right now because while I do think he acted odd and it annoys me the way he ALWAYS just revenge votes for me when I'm voting for him, he's at least playing. I know he'll say he has a read but he doesn't actually have anything other than misunderstanding me and then reflexively voting for me.
Anyway, did Ryan indicate he wouldn't be able to be around on day one? I don't remember so, but I didn't pay a lot of attention to the signup thread.
I guess I'll go for uberfish based on nothing, since there's nothing in here to base anything on.

see, I feel like you did the same thing to me. Anyway, at least this post makes me think you weren't really trying to railroad me.
anyway there's not a lot to go on because for some reason no one is playing . I feel like I'm playing this game with you right now, and not really anyone else. Not encouraging for a quick game where mistakes are brutal.
To combat that, I think I'm just going to vote for the person with the least posts. right now that's Ryan. If he shows up (quickly, not much time left) and starts actually contributing I might change my vote. but if he doesnt, I REALLY think we have to policy lynch him. we only have 3 mislynches - and if one villager is mod killed we go down to 2 mislynches.
